What you're about to read is a collection of pointers to some of the music I've discovered on the iTunes Music Store, music I like enough that I want to share it. If you're an iPod owner and an iTunes fan (and if you aren't, what are you doing here?), maybe you'll find something new. Click on any of the CD covers to bounce over to the store and sample a few tracks. And then maybe stop by my other blog for a few well chosen words (and maybe a random snark or two). | ||||||

Have some music to recommend? I can always use a few pointers. Use the comments link at the bottom of the page. | ||||||

Smoking Monkey / Jonathan Coulton | |
Jonathan Coulton is a nerd with a sick sense of humor. That's almost
enough to guarantee a mention on my other
blog. But he also has musical talent to go with that sick sense
of humor, and that's why he's here.
I first heard of Jonathan on Boing Boing, the source of way too many of best blog postings. This one mentioned that Jonathan had just done a folk cover of Baby Got Back, which you can listen to on his podcast. It's that most excellent combination of well crafted and totally wacky that we cherish. Coulton's own songs are fine examples of musical skill merged with techie humor. If you're a nerd, you'll feel right at home. I certainly did. And that's a good thing, right? |
