Albums of 2011
This was a tale of two moods year. The beginning of the year was all moody introspective albums where you can imagine me standing in the rain and not caring, while the second half was all cheery rebirth stuff primarily because I’d met my girlfriend and we were having a great time listening to music [...]
Albums of 2010
Had a lot of time to listen to music this year, with about 5 months off work in total, yet somehow I didn’t listen enough. The dance trend of last year has continued and I’m starting to question where my indie roots are going, without an Arcade Fire or Midlake album in sight. I think [...]
Albums of 2009
For me, this year was more about singles. The only time I didn’t have ADHD with music was when I was listening to an hour long trance track and that was purely so that I could get the playcount to 1 in my ipod. To actually put an album on high rotation was an effort, [...]
Future Music Festival 2009 in Brisbane
I’m an indie girl by nature, cutting my concert teeth on early Livid Festivals in Davies Park and Big Day Outs. I’ve never been to a dance club nor do I really dance when I go out. So it was a little bit of a shock for me to purchase a ticket to the Future [...]
Albums of 2008
Pop was fantastic this year. It’s like bankruptcy and horror made people long for happy songs and dancing so the output was joyous and fun. The fact that there were so many releases that would good made it hard for me to pick my favourite albums of the year which is a good problem to [...]
How to get legit free mp3s
The proliferation of mp3 blogs online has made it relatively easy to get fresh new music on to your ipod. If you are sitting there stagnating with 3 year old songs on itunes and want to update your image, this may be a good place to begin. For a start, you need either iTunes (windows [...]
Ring tone for Kelly
I first chose Dance Floor Anthem (because she doesn’t want to be alone) but she preferred Fancy pants, but I have hit upon the perfect ringtone for when Kelly rings me. Yes it’s basic, but it gets the message across with humour and style. Thanks to Smudge for their input: Kelly Ringtone
Theme song for Logan City
While he was listening hard to the Dr Horrible soundtrack Chris discovered today that Logan City is having a competition to create a theme song for the city. He set me a challenge to come up with one, so I took the obvious route with this choice (please imagine there is a tune that goes [...]
Sia – Academia
This is absolutely my most favourite song right now. You should know Sia from the song “Breathe Me” which was most famously used as the song in the last episode of Six Feet Under. I’ve always thought she was a “take me serious I’m a female feminist” type singer, but turns out she is just [...]
This ones for the extroverts
Let it be said that I’m not just a one dimensional moody sad person. I like to go out as much as the next person and although I’m not a dancer, in the privacy of my own home, I might just be. Maybe. So, since the extroverts did attempt to listen to my last mix [...]
My profession is tech geek.
My joy is food and travel.
My tech is cult of apple.
