the dreams things are made of
this is a playlsist of mine from between the hours of around 4am to 7am......
i thought i'd post it because:
i. it should act as a rubbing coatsleeve on the fogged up window that looks out to the brown horizonless landscape that is my musical taste.
ii. i rock
iii. there are songs in there you will like.
built to spill - still flat
john vanderslice - the mansion
beulah - my horoscope said it would be a bad year
for stars - there was a river [HIGHLY recommended]
godspeed you black emperor - lift yr. skinny fists like antennas to heaven
the brian jonestown massacre - the ballad of jim jones
stereolab - long live life
badly drawn boy - the shining[avalanches remix]
the flaming lips - the softest bullet ever shot
antibalas afrobeat orchestra - hypocrite
koop! ft. yukimi nagano - summer sun
mr. scruff - get a move on
sporto hantes - mundo
llorca - indigo blues [alexkid remix]
ken vandermarks and joe harriott project - abstract
cornelius - point of view point
broken social scene - guilty cubical
death cab for cutie - bend to squares
feist - mushaboom
young people - ne'er do well
butterfly child - dont talk to me
the mendoza line - a damn good disguise
beulah - if we can land a man on the moon, surely i can win your heart
the brian jonestown massacre - supersonic
bright eyes - lover i dont have to love
kid koala - basin street blues
it goes on...... considering i dont sleep it's going to extend to around 11am.
chances are i'll throw in the go! team's "thunder, lightning, strike!" album and play superspike v-ball for nintendo until
lunch.
Amid the chaos of that day, when all I could hear was the thunder of gunshots, and all I could smell was the violence in the air, I look back and am
amazed that my thoughts were so clear and true, that three words went through my mind endlessly, repeating themselves like a broken record:
you're so cool, you're so cool, you're so cool. And sometimes Clarence asks me what I would have done if he had died, if that bullet
had been two inches more to the left. To this, I always smile, as if I'm not going to satisfy him with a response. But I always do. I tell him
of how I would want to die, but that the anguish and the want of death would fade like the stars at dawn, and that things would be much as they are
now. Perhaps. Except maybe I wouldn't have named our son Elvis.

honest to god, doesn't surprise me in the least.
i figured no one had heard of at least 95% of these..... which is part of the reason i posted it.

the way you present yourself kind of gives the impression that these should be well known bands/groups/people

i would think the opposite. i guess my "currently listening to:"s aren't as obscure as i originally thought.

I can only vouch for 11 out of 26..so I fail.
The only song I had recently heard was 'lift yr. skinny fists like antennas to heaven' and that's because he had it on his MSN name
and I felt intrigued.
you won't let me down...

rather than imposing my personal tastes on you guys anymore, i'm quite confident you guys would be really into the band And You Will Know Us By
the Trail of Dead... i happen to think they're pretty snappy fellas.
check out The Black Heart Procession while you're at it.

my friend recently purchased the album that this thread is named after [roughly], "the dream that stuff was made of" by Starlight Mints,
and he burned me a copy. i gotta say, it's pretty F'n good. i mean how many bands used expressions like "Holy shazam"? now
that is freakin genious. i especially like Submarine #3 and Cracker Jack. i recommend them for sure.
oh, it was pretty cool, as we were listening to it for the first time, we got to the Twilight Showdown, and i said what this band needed was a flute
player. and then the intro of Margarita came on and "holy shazam" it was a flute! haha
