With the popularity of my two previous different sets of compilations, I decided to take a chance on a third, but directed towards a much smaller audience. That's right, it's time to shine the spotlight on the doomsters! To my complete surprise, the 'Buried In The North' set I built for 'Old School' Canadian Death Metal has been well received and has accumulated over 150 downloads (That's good for me with the lack of promotion that I actually do). That was actually my secondary build as my first sets (Which are actually still growing and up to Volume 10 as of this writing) were the dreaded Nu/Alternative Metal area. Yeah, that's right... I LIKE that type of music. Deal with it! But that had a good level of popularity too, as the first 5 volumes of those sets accumulated over 200 downloads each and the later volumes are starting to pick up speed as well. My main goal for all of these is promotion for bands who I think deserve it. Some simple minded individuals would look at what i'm doing as piracy. …

Tuesday Ten: 147: Long Songs
2012年 1月 24日, 22:15 作者:amodelofcontrol
My girlfriend set me a challenge for two Tuesday Tens the other week, and it seemed like an interesting idea. Last week included the shortest Spotify Playlist I will ever post, and this week goes to the other extreme.
So this week is long songs – agreed to be more than ten minutes in duration, and also to be actual songs (as opposed to including secret tracks or silence). Which did, admittedly cut down my choice from the 447 tracks of 10:00 or more in duration by an a fair bit, and also reduced the number of genres involved. There were a few things I chose to ignore, too. Like the ridiculously over indulgent
Mother by Goldie – all sixty minutes of that orchestral-drum’n'bass car crash – or the stupidly overlong
Breaking Into Heaven by The Stone Roses, which would have been a great track if only they had reined it in a bit – then again, something that was said a lot about that album…
Even so, you’ll need a fair amount of spare time for this lot. … -

Omega_Switch's Collection of Musical Plastic (vinyls...)
2011年 11月 18日, 0:54 作者:Omega_Switch22B
So I've decided to relist my catalog my vinyl collection here because I got really bored one day and decided to type all of this shit out- the thought of such boredness brings me much sadness, but I could've just sat staring at the wall, so given that thought this isn't such a pointless post. I'll post another journal entry at some point with some pics of the particularly beautiful vinyl.
