What I'm listening to today: "the 3rd experience", Merr0w
Behold the unbelievable versatility of the Roland TB-303, released in 1981 as a bass accompaniment device for guitarists, failed rapidly as it doesn't actually work for this, postmortem birthed multiple genres of music and decades later there's a whole micro-industry of clone devices and folks are still creating fun unique-feeling music with them. Here's some acid trance (is this "goa"?). This is the sound. This
What I'm listening to today: "Live Ambient vermona perFOURma with Digitone and Blofeld.", Surgeons Girl
Pleasantly meandering ambient, like someone tried to freeze the idea of "distraction" into a song. All little fluttery subtractive analog synth bubbles.
Minimal, but on second listen it's more substantial than it felt at first.
A comic that I will think about every day for the rest of my life, probably.

Picked this up from mail today. Fourth edition of "Guide to LaTeX" (don't Google it, kids!) from 2004. It came from UK and, apparently, belonged to some D. Linton.
Also, as a pleasant surprise, it contained TexLive 2003 distribution for Windows, Linux and MacOS UNSEALED!
