The Signal Music Weblog

Hey all. I discovered today that the previously uploaded version of EP066 had broken id3 tags, so I've replaced the file. You can grab it at the same spot by either clicking on these words right here, or on the image above.

SORRY! OH WE'RE SO SORRY!

Last Friday was St. George's Day, an English holiday, and as a better-late-than-never offering, we're proud to present a web exclusive mix from Emcee Child and the reclusive DJ Dragon Fury containing all the English audio nutrients your ears need to grow.

The track list is in the id3 tags! The groove is in the heart! The dragons are in their place! What more could you ask for?

The Signal: EP066 - Wild horses couldn't tear me away, I think. They haven't tried. But I wouldn't trust a wild horse on any count. Wild, they are.

Okay, party people, it's a new Signal mix. 45 minutes of stuff for the merry (tiny) band of people who know this website of mine exists and have put up with its rare updates, its non-working links, etc. etc. Its unnecessary duplicated et ceteras.

The post is up for a limited time. Track listing is in the id3 tag. Notes are after the jump. I had a good time putting this one together. I hope it shows. Thanks to those who've been supportive. It's a great feeling to know that these get listened to by more than just me.

There's only one more day to listen, but if you see this in time, you might want to listen to the new album by Jonsi, of Sigur Ros. The album is called "Go," the first two tracks are exuberant and amazing pop music, production is by Nico Muhly (who's appeared on a Signal mix) and it's all streaming here if you're interested:

(I mention the first two tracks because I'm listening to it myself right now. It may very well stay this amazing the whole way through. But if not, at least it's two songs in a row that are gorgeous.)
