MUSIC

I love discovering new music and finding out about older music that I never knew existed. I have recently found out that trading music with friends is a great way to really get to know that person. Afterall, I feel you can almost completely figure out a person by their taste in music. And if you have no taste in music then you suck and we can't be friends. I am kidding... well halfway kidding.


I have been told that I only like "slit your wrist" music. Which is mostly true, but I am trying to branch out to some new fun stuff. My only issue with discovering new stuff is that I like to investigate one or two artists at a time. I get really overwhelmed if I have a bunch of new stuff to listen to.

In the past few months, I have been trading tunes with several people and it has been really fun. I have received an USB full of music, CD mixes, whole albums on CD, and I recently joined dropbox and made several others join too. If you don't know about it, Dropbox is a website where you can upload music and share files with others whether it be music, movies, or pictures.
I believe there is a space limit but if you pay a little I think you can get more space.



Here is a list of some of my favorite trade offs lately



Radiohead

TAG- music compilation - 3 cds where each song starts with either T, A, or G

Angus and Julia Stone - from my downunder friend

Cold War Kids - from Dougie

Several CDs - from Justin when I went to Vegas for the Black keys

The entire Beatles collection - from Chris

Unique Music Podcast with Will and Chris

I tend to email my friend Jacob every few month and get a few new Artists to look up

My friend Lindsay recently visited and put some great new stuff on my computer

Now there is spotify with unlimited access to music and you can see what your friends like too.


I love music!! That is why it was the theme to my going away party in Albuquerque.
I love discovering new stuff. Please send me any new/old music you want to share with me.

Peace--Love--Music
