Following the FF12 ost I got to some backtracking to albums that I had recently added that were before or in the Fs. First came some older Dwelling of Duels tracks that I downloaded. I would like to make it a point that any of the contributions that Luiza has made to the monthly DOD competitions have been amazing. From the recent Dimensional Horizons, to the classic Fire Cross, or Cessation of Mammon and Timeless Hero I just really like the guitar style and flair that is put into those remixes. I hope that she could possibly be inspired to…

When it comes to Final Fantasy IX for some reason the majority of people whose opinions I have heard did not have particularly strong feelings of it. I played through most of it back when it came out, and only in the past year played through it fully. I am of the opinion, with a few of my friends, that it was at least one of the better recent Final Fantasies. Between the characters being awesome, 4 person party brought back, and the learning skills from equipment I thoroughly enjoyed it.

Now the soundtrack is one of my personal favorites…

I did not make much progress this week as I kept getting sidetracked with work or listening to particular playlists and such.

The major completion over this time was the Final Fantasy 8 soundtrack. The game itself was nothing spectacular in my opinion, but then again most final fantasy games are turning out that way these days… that is a whole other issue in itself, anyways back to the soundtrack. One of the big issues I've had with Nobuo Uematsu is that his compositions as big as they are, most of the time 4 discs, do not have as many…

Again with a relatively long gap, I need to start making these closer together so I can actually gather my thoughts on what I thought of each album. The primary purpose of this whole venture was to help me figure out what music I have that I could do without, the dead weight in my library, since my ipod is again filling up. Only a couple gigs left of the 80 total.

After the Elfen Lied goodness came the amazing Encore: Live and Direct by Scooter. What can I say? Scooter is such a feel good guilty pleasure of catchy…

Well the Ds have finally been finished. Following Pink Floyd I covered Darkest Days by Stabbing Westward, not as good as Ungod but a great listen. An assortment of single tracks then parts of Belle & Sebastian's Dear Catastrophe Waitress, if the rest of the album is as good as I'm a Cuckoo and Step Into My Office Baby then that must be an amazing whole. Then Bjork's Debut, so much variety on it, Come to Me is awesome. Head Automatica's Decadence was a great contribution to my collection from my friend David. More disjointed tracks then Demon Days. I…

It's been a while, lotsa stuff has been sifted through. Lots of tests for classes of late as well…most of it over with and spring break on the horizon.

And then there was a whole load of music after Black Holes and Revelations. Some early interests of mine in the form of Blink 182's self title, Jimmy Eat World's Bleed American, RHCP's Blood Sugar Sex Magik to name a few. Enjoyable to listen through, then some awesome Sneaker Pimps a la Bloodsport and Tricky in Blowback. Now Bloodsport and Sick are some awesome tracks, I am also partial to Excess…

It's official, I am too stupid and bad at prioritizing to keep updating this journal thingy at random intervals…but I'll do what I can.

Ok so there is no way I can remember the play by play like I normally can with a week or so span. I'll just do a rough overview idea thingy. Alienating our Audience by MSI always a pleasure, especially since it's their early stuff (Tight is an amazing album). I found out I am not a fan of Dispatch as I once thought I was after listening to All Points Bulletin and Bang Bang. Radiohead's…

Writing once every day or two days is obviously too great a task for me to accomplish haha.

Wednesday the 24th I made my way through Johnny Cash's 16 Biggest Hits, Frank Sinatra's 20 Classic Tracks, some Tatu, and finally some Addison Groove Project. The classic stuff in the beginning, some awesome pop in the middle followed by some chill live material.

Thursday, behold I began the day with Rush's 2112. What an outstanding and impressive album. Followed by Aphex Twin's 26 Mixes for Cash, 311's self titled album, and the amazing and essential 40oz. to Freedom. I thoroughly enjoyed…

Monday I made my way through 10,100 Days (Tool), 10,000 Hz Legend (Japanese Retail) (Air), and most of 100th Window (Massive Attack) along with some other misc tracks. As I've only had a once through listen to 10,000 days as of now I can say I definitely enjoyed it. It takes it's time, and if you're willing to soak it up as it plods along then you're in for a treat in terms of details and such. Air's 10,000 Hz Legend is an odd one in my opinion. Alot more obtuse and hard to swallow than Talkie Walkie or Moon…

I didn't have time to write an entry for yesterday since I was doing thermo dynamics/ISE lab hw. I got through a good number of stuff, '64-'95 by Lemon Jelly was an absolute treat. In particular '64 aka Go was a standout. Somnambulist from BT, always relaxing, and most definetly not correctly labeled album. …And Justice for All(metallica) was pretty sweet, …I Care Because You Do(aphex twin) had some standout tracks to me on my first go through near the end a la Next Heap With and Alberto Balsalm. 10 Years of Hardcore Vol 1 & 2 was filled with…
