Well this one is actually safe for work and is not the quickie some visitors might have been looking for when googling and finding yourself here.

I thought I would send you on your way into the meat of the weekend with a couple of tracks that I have been spinning lately and are tracks that I thought needed to [...]
Photo stolen from sonicallyaltered Well my affinity for all things bearded and acoustic have lead me to singer songwriter Josh Preston. There I said it...now did that sound creepy?

There are five (yes 5!) albums available for download that were released in the last 3 years more or less. So come on people, head on over for some sampling! I first came [...]
I am a little sad as I awoke to snow on the ground this June. Yes, snow in June. I know many of you are thinking..."But Sandy, you live in Calgary....that is in Canada!". Damn it, it still shouldn't snow in June. I have already had my sunburn from a couple weeks back fade and now we are back to snow! Texas here I come. Well enough bitching, it is still the weekend and I can sit around (re: hibernate) watch a few movies, listen to great music, snuggle with the missus. I will also be hoping for [...]

i quite enjoyed sheffield's 65 days of static's last record, one time for all time. their glitchy, squarepusher inspired version of math rock breaks up the monotony of a sometimes very tiring genre. they have a new record entitled the destruction of small ideas and are opening for the cure during their fall tour. the problem with instrumental bands is [...]
