So here's the skinny:

I asked a friend for a copy of the Franz Ferdinand cd because I liked what I heard, and told her I would trade her a mix of similarly weird music. By weird, I mean anything with substance that isn't pop music. There is a variety of different artists on this and I am impressed with how well they all melded together. This is what I came up with:

As usual, I would be up for a trade if anyone was interested in a copy.

Any Ideas? [05 Jan 2005|01:12pm]

[ mood | curious ]
[ music | Saosin - Mookie's Last Christmas ]

Whats a song for needing money? Like you're broke, not that you just want it. Cause I can think of that one song about Money, thats been covered a dozen times, the one that says, "Money, thats what I want!" but that isn't exactly the right fit for what I'm looking for because it sounds more greedy, and I'm thinking of one thats more desperate.

Missing someone [24 Dec 2004|03:52pm]

quesarahsera
[ mood | curious ]
[ music | "Ho Ho Ho and a Bottle of Rhum" - Jimmy Buffett ]

So.. there is a semi-decent chance that next year my girlfriend and I will be attending different grad schools rather far away from each other. I will miss her more than my words can say. What I want is to find songs that will say it for me. I want to compile a mix CD centered on a "missing you" theme. I thought of a few songs that I know I want to include, but they (understandably) tend to be of the soft and mushy variety. I don't want to CD to make us both cry, so I was wondering if anyone could recommend some fun songs that deal with missing someone to liven it up a bit. Also, she really likes Norah Jones and Five for Fighting, and I'm not that familiar with their songs (beyond the overplayed ones): can anyone think of a song by NJ or FfF that might fit?

Please help me!

[ mood | cold ]

This is my yearly attempt to convey winter and the holidays and all the accompanying emotions into a mix cd. I like it this way but I might tweak it a bit for the next batch of post-Christmas, pre-New Year's mailings. I'm not sure. Things are sketchy in mix cd land. You know how it goes.

Trade With Me [18 Dec 2004|08:11pm]

[ mood | cheerful ]
[ music | "Slow Hands" - Interpol ]

I was wondering if anyone wanted to trade a mix for a mix, I thought of songs that make me think of Winter and made mixes for my friends. I'm in love with getting mixes so I'd love to trade with someone. :)

[ mood | artistic ]
[ music | beck- everybodys gotta learn sometime ]

So with the sad news of besonic not coming back and having to be totally rebuilt, i have decided to use other sites to promote my music on a signed up with one this morning with nice results. I made a new song yesterday called "The Mind Control Remix"
Description: This is a collection of ideas turned into a unique listening experience that i dont think you will forget. Starts off like a Party gone terribly wrong and panic struck with an alien warp to it all and then goes off into a calm folky/synth bit mixed with a bit of downbeat with a hint of blackness below and from their it goes into pieces that i cant describe. Just download the damned thing and listen to it already!!!
FIRST REVIEW ON THIS SONG:by solipsism 12/13/2004
darktronica
"this is awesome...no other word to describe it, i'm totally blown away by this track...truly amazing electronica...highly original stuff, brilliant to listen to....i love how you've came up with this track, real depth in this piece....mega impressed. A MUST hear "
