gonna make this quick cuz im effin tired. and yes it is 9-1 my internet is still on utah time so go off of the dates i say not the internet.
First off, more about kung fu panda. fav track, oogway accends. super dramatic cool song especially if you liked the lion king end of hans zimmer.
got the march of the penguins album suprised it worked out and i found it. but its nothing amazing proabably to anyone else but i really like it. probably because i was raised in the snow it really gives that feel. my fav track is "the march" the score was done by alex wurman.
a song called "stakes is high" by "de la soul". de la soul is great a good influencer on a lot of rap like tribe called quest.
next is a song i found on one of my hip hop lists. its by an artist im not to familiar with the artist is "loop troop" check out the song "poor lonesome boy" by him on album "sidewalk headliners"
also found myself listening to phanton of the opera today. gotta love it. the soundtrack from the film
also dont ask me how but listened to a few songs by yellow card. havent heard them FOREVER like since i was like 10. i went and saw them live they were my first concert.
also i was listening to some of jack johnsons kfog archive music. check out and these are some of my fav songs by him ever but check out frankie and albert and pirate looks at forty. youtube didnt have these songs for the longest time but then they finally got them a few months ago.
jj calls out an artist names "taj mahal" on the franki and alber track. i was blown away with how much i liked the song "cake walk into town" on taj mahal. really fun song to harmonize to and just let your blues out.
that is all. farewell

Music for (8-31)
There is an artist named or calls him self "Bense". he is french i truely have no idea how i stumbled apon him on youtube a few years back but anyway i have three of his songs. Yes, they are all in french (i rarely listen to foreign lang. music) but i really like it actually. its just a chill sound and the musical qualities are great. you tube him and type in "bense angela session acoustic" and it should pop up as a black and white vedio of some guy with a hat playing. check him out the other songs or titles are "buvons" and "Au grand". Justin didnt like this guy if i remember right but give it a few listens and it will grow on you its pretty solid.
Also today i found myself listening to michael franti and spearhead. no im not a hippie or a vegitarian or enviormentalist but there is no denying franti is a great artist. he is pretty anti gov liberal and the hole bit but his music is great. i was listening to his album "yell fire" (debatably in my top 5 albums) and its awesome. What suprises me is how consistant every song is on that album. its not just like one or two good hits and then decent everything else every song is really like a money good treasure on the yell fire album. if i were you i would just strait up buy that album not on itunes tho cuz if you use itunes your wasting money and your a sap. i would list my favorite tracks but that would just take forever cuz like i said they are all money. not sure how consistant his other albums are but the yell fire is MONEY
I got a song today by a band/artist titled "mono" its more of that acid jazz/ trip hop but its a great song even if your not that familiar to the genre. but the song i got is called "silicone" i only have one track but im defenitly going to try and get a few albums. awesome song.
Listened a lot more to thievery corporation today. i continued to listen to the radio retaliation album and its just growing more and more on me its awesome. but the reason i bring them up is i got another song by them today titled heavens gonna burn your eyes on album richest man in babylon. cool song the beat drops in a litttle way into the song and its awesome.
back to the hip hop got a song by outerspace today called american me. check it out its pretty cool thats all there is to it. outerspace is pretty underground to
another song i got today more similar to neil halstead was song "god made the automobile" by iron & wine on around the well. pretty cool song again just check it out.
listenin to some more frank sinatra today. gotta love it dang its been a wile since i have jammed to jazz and blues and such. favorite track of the day by him is "them song of new york new york" great stuff i think he did the soundtrack for oceans eleven thats what justin told me atleast.
Still the number one most played song on my itunes is tonny bennet and billy joel singing "new york sate of mind" on tonny bennets "playing with my friends" album. tonny bennet plus bill joel especially on a song like that is amazing.
Also litened to some howard shore. gotta love the fellowship of the ring soundtrack.
wow you can tell by the way the paragraphs decline how lazy i get about typing aobut artists and music.

Finally got the Matt Costa cd's i wanted. i somehow lost the ones i already had on my comp. but anyway i got the albums titled "Songs we sing"(one of my favs the one i know the best) "unfamiliar faces" and "matt costa ep". matt costa is really a great artist, you will really like him if your into people like jack johnson donavin frankenwritter ben harper etc. Matt costa is great but ill be honest he is kind of weird. he has some really good chill talented music and then he has some mega weird stuff so dont let just a few songs turn you away from him. some of my favortites by him are
On Songs we sing:
Yellow taxi
Cold december
sunshine (probably his most famous)
sweet rose
astair
on Unfamiliar Faces
miss magnolia (love this song)
mr. pitiful (like the acoustic version of this way better than the album recording you can find it acoustic on you tube type in matt costa mr. pitiful kfog archives
on Matt costa Ep
movin on
It suprise me how steathily he is "twangy" like i was saying about norman blake a few posts back im tellin you you have no idea how much of this twangy bluegrass stuff is showin up in music and you would be suprised how much you can appreciate it. Not sure i posted this name or track but if you like matt costa you will like the song me and julio down by the school yard by paul simon on negotiations and love songs. great track that just popped into my head but also on the more serious songs like astair matt costa does that is sort of like a beautiful lullaby paul simon aslo has those on the same album try something so right and st. judy's commet. both GREAT songs and they fit really well in the same ball park as matt costas lullaby style songs. again if you want to hear any of these songs just youtube them.
aslo on this same tagent of music i just barley ripped strait from you tube the album oh mighty engine by Neil Halstead. I heard neil halstead at the jack johnson concert like the opening show for the people who were opening for the people who were opening for jack johnson haha so yeah totally small artist pretty sure he is super underground still (could be wrong considering i dont know the radio trends very well) but yeah i was probably the only one listening to him while he played and i remember really likin it he was just him himself playin acoustic and it was really good. anyway i couldnt find any of his albums on my UK websites or even on any "other" websites the only place i could find him was youtube so yeah. i think he is from england. ANYWAY his music is really good i would check out his albums. The thing about him is is he really is the chillest artist i have ever heard.. ever. infact i thought i would never say this but maybe to chill. these songs would be like sick for a bonfire. but MAJOR MELLOW music but yeah here are some of my favorites from the album oh mighty engine
On oh might engine
baby i grew you a beird
oh mihgy engine
and many more but yeah check him out for sure this totally seems like something justin nickle would like so susy if you actually read these tell him or i will when i see him in a week ha

As you may have noticed im getting pretty interested in this trip hop and acid jazz. i got an album by "thievery corporation" and they are a great band in this genre. i got the album radio retailiation. From what i have heard (listening to it right now :) ) its really cool. Really unique like most of this music is however it still sticks to the familiar base of most music... like although its out there it still isnt like so bizzare you cant listen to it which in some other bands of this genre they are good but just so bizzare you really have to listen to enjoy. this album would be great for like homework... or.. tripping on acid.

MMMMM hans zimmer hi. i really love him but i think alot of it has to be credited to the fact i love film scores. In addition to the recent addition (that was cool) of lion king and kung fu panda (both AWESOME) i also got the cod4:2 soundtrack (modern warfare two) and there are like a billion tracks but they are pretty good. i also forgot that i have the black hawk down soundtrack he did as well. i also got the pirates of the caribean at world ends sound track he did. i was trying to get the last samuri to but it didnt work out. Another film score i really want (not hans zimmer) is the march of the penguins soundtrack. i have heard one or two pieces from it and its pretty good i would suggest checking it out. i have never seen the movie tho. and of course we cant forget one of the best film scores of all time... lotr done by howard shore i like the first movies score the best. even if your one of those people with the mind of a two year old and couldnt appreciate the films of lotr, you will still like the soundtrack i promise.

AHHHH (more music for 8/30)
FML i just typed a big effing paragraph and it got erased. here we go again. one of my favorite top 5 albums (top 5 is a huge deal to me) is the thicker than wather soundtrack. its the soundtrack from the film thicker than water that jack johnson did. its really good. one track really sticks out to me and thats rainbow. its the second track i believe. well last time when it all got erased it typed all about how i got into blues music and how artists and songs can be bridges. well screw writing that out again. also i talked about the movie thicker than water and brokedwon melody. youll just have to check them out on your own cuz i aint typin all that again. but a thankyou to justin nickle who owns all those surf movies and got me into them. the reason im not typin all this out again is cuz the soundtrack to kungfu panda just finished downloading!!!! i have wanted this for so long and i finally got it and am loving every moment of this hans zimmer did yet again a more than perfect job. i love it how he can capture the apitimy of what you would think the spirit of a country or land would be like. such as in lion king it just seems to be african (when in reality its pretty far of from african music) but it seems to capture such a beautiful spirt i just love it and cant get enough of it now i have the asian end. yes this is so good mmmm and i have lots more hans zimmer on the way and i new pandora of him.
More music for today 8/30
Was listening to some of my sunday favorites and remembered a really good fav of mine although i only like a few of his songs... but i know its only a matter before it all grows on me and i understand it all. but anyway its norman blake. the orem public library has TONS of his albums and although its like country/blue grass like tenesse style its still shockingly good and you would be amazed at how similar it is to music that you would listen to and consider "chill". anyway my fav album by him is slow train throuhg georgia. you really have to get over the twangy bluegrass style but once you do you will love it. again, i only like a few tracks from this album because its so country and i typically dont listen to country but like i said its really similar to music you would listen to. anyway, check out the tracks called slow train through georgia, and spanish fandango(this one is an instramental) little joe, and there are a few other good ones on here but really if i was to slip an instramental from him on a chill cd i made and gave it to someone i can gurantee it would be a fav track you just have to get over the country vibe. but anyway start with spanish fandango its a really beautiful piece. Also, cant beet motab on the sabbath as well.
