‘Chill, Honey Bunny…’

April 19, 2004

Here’s a double-treat for fans of chill-out, trip-hop, lounge & related music…

First up, there’s Theta States - Bedroom Music for Bedroom People—a collection of cd-length MP3 mixes of down-tempo beats, abstract underground hip-hop, and various other tasty items.  Around 21 hours worth of material, ready-to-download.  So far, the ones I’ve listened to seem very listen-able, and will be much appreciated in my collection.  I only wish they’d have left the individual cuts separate and tied them together with playlists, so that they could be further sliced and diced, but it’s all free, which makes it tough to argue about it.

(via del.icio.us)

Next, MeFi also picked up “Bedroom Music” (chicken, egg, who knows?) and the discussion included a pointer to ElectronicScene, which is just chock-full of free downloads and streams for everything even vaguely electronica related.  They also appear to sell a pretty broad variety of the same.

It’s anyone’s guess how long these treasure-troves will be available, so I wouldn’t recommend hesitating.

Free Picasa!Since Google bought Picasa, they've released it for free -- if you need a Windows tool to organize your image collection, arrange albums, create slideshows or do basic image cleanup and editing, Picasa is tough to beat, and you can't argue with the new price. -----...


Homicide: Life On The ‘NetI was recently out doing a little googling to find the music from the first season 2 episodes of The Wire, and happened to stumble on this site: “Homicide: Links on the Sites”:http://members.aol.com/hlotslinks/ It didn’t suprise me that I found stuff on Homicide: Life on the Streets, as it and The Wire are like two peas in a Baltimore pod.  What did suprise me, though was that there’s still a very active fan base for Homicide—this site has five updates already this month.  For a show that was canceled three and a half years ago. Wow.  If you were a Homicide fan, be sure to check it out.  It may not be the fanciest page on the ‘net, but it’s...

The Dawn of Legit Music DownloadsWell, iTunes Music Store on Windows has cost me a bunch of money so far… I like the organization, the samples, the ability to see related artists and everything—it was very easy to end up with a huge laundry list of backlist stuff that I’ve been meaning to acquire and add to my library, and so I broke down and acquired some of it. Not from iTunes Music Store, mind you… iTunes doesn’t share the iPod nicely (to put it mildly) with J. Rivers Music Center, which is by far my favorite piece of music organizing and iPod handling software. That particular pain in the ass, combined with having to deal with the music being in a different format (AAC)...
