mister, i love the way you wear that hat

Posted by doubter on Sunday, September 30th, 2007

top o’ the afternoon people. man its beautiful here in atlanta today. the one thing i will never get used to though is that the wind is quite cool but that damn sun is, well, freakin hot.

if i were you, i would not miss william elliot whitmore tonight at smiths olde bar. i, unfortunately, have to miss him cause i am working but you really have no excuse except maybe pure laziness. i have not seem him yet, but from all reports, he is supposedly pretty amazing.

the chariot from song of the blackbird

midnight from ashes to dust

cold and dead from hymns for the hopeless

i posted a show from iowa about a year ago if you want to check it out. here

i like polyphonic spree, but sometimes they are just a little too much. now los angeles’ bodies of water, on the other hand, bring their take of the bombastic gospel sound with a more rustic/old timey feel. i have to spend a bit more time with their ears will pop, eyes will blink but thus far its pretty damn cool. check em…

i guess ill forget the sound, i guess, i guess

we are co-existors

these are the eyes

doves circled the sky

bodies of water site / myspace

part of the problem with working at night is that i dont want to listen to anything to poppy cause it’s kinda annoying at 3 am, but i dont want to listen to anything too solemn due to the fact that i dont want to fall asleep. so, i usually find myself listening to either mogwai or explosions in the sky most of the time. both perfect soundtracks for the late night set.

here is a 3.11.98 fm broadcast of mogwai

1. like herod

2. a place for parks

3. ex-cowboy

4. helicon 2

5. katrien

6. ithaca 27-9

7. xmas steps

8. helicon 1

9. mogwai fear satan

10. dj closing

    You are absolutely right about mogwai being perfect for the late night, I usually listen to it while doing some late studying. Needless to say, I am really thankful for the tracks you just posted.
    Just awesome!
