Apparently time flies. I haven't written in nearly a year and I'm feeling like I need to get back on the bandwagon. There was a reason I started this blog. I feel really great when I write and I think that's the reason why I need to keep it up. Part of me isn't sure where to go with it in terms of content and theme so I'm just going to go with whatever feels right. Another part of me is self conscious in that I have no idea what people will think about my skill as a writer or the content I've chosen. The latter issue is what I'm going to work on forgetting about. A good friend of mine, Greg Lau, has encouraged me to get back at it as well. That was some really nice feedback and motivation. Apparently I have a fan! Who knew? Thanks pal. So from here on out, here goes! This time... no expectations.
As I sit here this mild December night, I'm listening to some good music from the early 2000s. I am absolutely craving new tracks from some of my go-to artists from previous years. I've Googled and find some of them haven't been working on new music in quite some time. Some though, hopefully, have been in the studio recording tracks for albums set to release in 2012 & 2013. Here are a few of the ones I'm craving most: Fiona Apple, The Knife, LCD Soundsystem, Modest Mouse, The National, Outkast, Phoenix, Radiohead, Robyn, The Sounds and TV on the Radio.
I'll leave you with some tracks to remind you how amazing some of these artists are. Here's to hoping 2012 will bring some inspiring, new music to our headphones! (Try isohunt.com for the torrents, I have no idea how to link an audio file... yet).
Enjoy!
Enjoy!
Wishing you all the best this Christmas season,
Sarah
