So. Bring it.

Writing about music, then.

Luckily, I've been listening to quite a lot of new(ish) music lately. No mean feat, this—the radio situation in the Flower City is not what it could be, I've had precious little discretionary income to spend on records, and since the death of my hard drive last December I've been working on a borrowed laptop with no P2P software. Just about my only exposure to new music has been through MP3blogs, the ubiquitous and perspicacious Fluxblog foremost among them.

So I've been amassing music for months, but that aforementioned borrowed laptop has crummy, underpowered speakers—so I feel as if I didn't really hear these songs until last week, when I finally got around to burning some compilation CDs and listening to them in the car. Listening to them loud. Lovely, lovely new music. My feet are barely touching the ground.
