Another musical interlude

Fresh Tunes

So one of the things I recently got for my birthday was a $30 iTunes gift cert. This is kind of awesome, because I haven't really bought any new music for quite a while, and I had been meaning to expand my collection a bit to bring in some fresh, new music.

Unfortunately, finding good music is easier said than done, and it's taken me quite a while to come up with some albums that I actually want to get.

I managed to stumble across a King Kooba album I didn't have, "Indian Summer", and I've been fairly pleased with the music contained within. I also managed to stumble across an Underworld album that had somehow eluded my previous collecting rampages, "A Hundred Days Off". As luck would have it, it contained one of my favourite songs, which is featured in the video embedded below.

I've still got $14 left to burn through, so the search continues...

I got a new toy

2001 Fender American Deluxe Stratocaster.


Cherry Sunburst body, Tortoise shell pickguard, Vintage Noiseless pickups, maple neck, locking tuners and a Fender 2-point tremolo.

The day the music lived

No, I didn't get new headphones (yet), but I did get a really spiffin' pair of blue drumsticks from Tyler and Angela for all my rockband drumming exploits.

Of course I don't actually have rockband here, so I'll need to wait until I'm back down in California before I can give them a proper workout, but I can enjoy drumming on a pillow in the mean time.
