heh yeah that's the old one that i recorded in my living room
the "do they still make lighthouses?" is the new one. i chronicled the making of it on the fb page with a few photos taken in the studio.

yikes. so yeah not dead.
just wanted to drop a quick update for folks who never made the "migration" that i've been pretty busy with the music stuff. spent the last year and a half writing and recording (in a proper studio) a record that was just released earlier this month.
it's nothing earth shatteringly new, more instrumental post-rock, but i got more ambient with it (which is really where i'm going musically)

oh man that would be awesome!
the vinyl version will be 12" the time/program material dictates that pretty much. i'd have to do special singles edits to get one of them to fit on a 45rpm 7" heh. the "radio edits." lolz

Why wouldn't ebay just 'escrow' all feedback... give notification to the seller that the buyer had posted feedback, but not make it visible until they had also posted. Give X days for each, and if they refuse to leave any, call it 'neutral'.
Seems mostly fair to me... surely they thought of it, though, and for some reason decided one-sided feedback was better?

awesome, yeah i'll have something setup soon about how to "reserve" a copy of the record. i haven't figured that part out yet, but i've gotten 2 or 3 other requests, so i figure i'll work something out. when i do i will make sure to post here.
yeah, i still really like it here in boston, things just didn't work out, too many issues. so we're just trying to figure out what to do next. i've been suffering from major depressive disorder for, well all my life, but for the past year or so its gotten much worse, and now with my diagnosis with asperger's syndrome, hasn't made things and life any easier. that's why all the focus on music. i need *something* to make the days easier to get through, and so far, this seems to help.

Vinyl Gets Its Groove Back 751
theodp writes "Time reports that vinyl records are suddenly cool again. Vinyl has a warmer, more nuanced sound than CDs or MP3s; records feature large album covers with imaginative graphics, pullout photos, and liner notes. 'Bad sound on an iPod has had an impact on a lot of people going back to vinyl,' says 15-year-old David MacRunnel, who owns more than 1,000 records."
