Weekly Mood Board, 24 April 2005

|

I really have very little recollection of what the heck I've done over the last seven days. It wasn't much.

Mood Board, 24 April 2005

This week's board is dominated by yet another wretched school assignment (*#!@$*#*#! content modelling) hanging over my head. Not fun. Not happy.

Lack of broadband access has also really played hell with my online media consumption -- no streaming internet radio, no new MP3 downloads. Boo.

Instead, the following MP3s (among others) wound up on heavy rotation this week:

  • "Signal Crossing" by Dykehouse -- back on the board, having first appeared two weeks ago
  • "Everybody's Got to Learn Sometime" by Beck
  • "Sweetness and Light" by Lush
  • "Pretty World" by Sergio Mendes and Brasil '66 -- I have Silence is a Rhythm Two to thank for the presence of this track on my hard drive; this song is one that I heard when I was very young, and it sort of stuck in the back of head as a vague memory; about twenty years later, I heard it again and learned that it was done by Sergio Mendes, but I still didn't know what the tune was called; a good decade-and-change after that, the mystery is finally solved
  • "Ladyflash" by The Go! Team -- another returning tune, having originally appeared on the inaugural mood board

Uh, yeah, it's a somewhat moody and sentimental playlist. It's been that kind of week.
