Back in the day I’d digitize stuff by taking audio off my receiver and run it into the audio-in on my computer. I was lazy the other day and decided I wanted to try to pull sound directly off the sound card. And that’s how I found Audio-Recorder [1]. It’s easy enough to install and…
Torch music that has the intended effect: The number of female vocalists on “my list” reads like a prospectus for the next TLC polyamory-sploitation reality series.

Based on this you can get a rough visualization of the Eigenvalue matrix they use to make these suggestions. For example: Simon & Garfunkel The most…
Just came up on Spotify’s “Electronic” radio station: Jolie Coquine : Caravan Palace. Loving this song lots so I search for more and it turns out this is a single and the only thing available by this artist (on Spotify anyway). I’d listen to a whole day’s worth of music in this vein.
So I am digging the Quincy Jones back catalog for the first time ever. Found the source for an awesome Cypress Hill sample here: Qunicy Jones : You’ve Got It Bad Girl : Summer in the City. The track itself? Fantastic!
