mee pee tee x 4
i like music. i like free, somewhat obscure music made by real people. you probably do too (that is, if i have my personas right, and my persona is myself, so i’m always right).
first we present burr settles. he makes neat web toys and good music:
- “the armadillo song” - just fun. it’s about a singing armadillo, after all.
- “your derivative” - probably the only religious song i like, since the wordplay is worth it.
- “butterflies and violets” - sweet and catchy.
- “josephine and adrianne” - same.
next, we have red martian. i’ve only listened to “supercomputing facility”, which i really like. excerpt from the lyrics:
SDF
NetBSD
call malloc()
then call a free()
cached my stack
for a rehash
x86 into the trash
DEC had RISC
before intel
PeeCees suck
linux as well
then, i hate you when you’re pregnant. “stuff in this world” is good; the rest of the songs aren’t.
and finally horton’s choice. all eight songs are great: scratchy, rockish, and intelligent. my favorites are “oxygen” and “shores”, which are also on creative commons’ wonderful copy me/remix me cd.
