Steve Hogarth & Richard Barbieri, Not the Weapon but the Hand -- weird, minimalistic, sparse, moody album. Steve sounds like he can barely sing quietly enough, against Richard's backdrop (there really is no other word for it -- soundscapes sounds too attention-whorey) of music. I'm actually quite liking it, probably because I'm in my darkened office with headphones on, with a comedown from a post-spicy-meal high going on.

My rating, on a scale of one to infinity: 8| (dilated pupils)

Caravan Palace -- French, glitchy, retro electro. RIYL The Real Tuesday Weld, the background music to the Gentleman Rhymer

Very upbeat, great fun, makes me happy, makes me dance.

Makes me throw my back out, ackshully.

jeff lynne - 2012 - long wave

good but not great - but just happy to have Jeff to listen to.

Didn't know he had any solo work. Reminiscent of ELO, or something different?

Reminiscent of more recent ELO (e.g., Zoom) and his work with Traveling Wilburys. I.E. less "electronic", no violin flourishes, and a more general Beatles-y-ness to the songwriting.

Me: Can't decide, was listening to Stevie Wonder earlier, not sure whether to go back to IAMX...will probably nix all and watch Sherlock.

Should Be: Bruno Mars

Just in a poppy/groovy/slightly off-kilter mood

Okay, I didn't know. There's nothing 'slightly off-kilter' about this, this is as mainstream as it gets. I didn't realize this was the "Marry You" guy. God I hate that song, and I don't even know why. It just ruined the rest of the album for me, I tried to skip it, but I just couldn't bring myself to listen to the rest of the album.

(shudders involuntarily)

Okay, this turned into more of a "what am I not listening to" post.
