I'm a mediocre procrastinating disillusioned perfectionist with delusions of grandeur. I like ukulele, food, photography and social media marketing. My favourite colour is yellow.
I'm all over the internet:

Listening to For What? by Caroline’s Capuchin. One of the guys from the band is Karl Evans, who I spent the weekend with making crazy music and chilling by the beach. Top top man and an amazing musician.

This week’s music obsession: Gatecrasher and their DJs. Last few weeks were all about jazz and Ella Fitzgerald. Now, I’m thinking about making dance/trance/house music so trying to learn some of the tricks and nuances. What better way than to absorb it while I work. Also, it tends to be short on vocals so easy to work to. I was listening to the the Gatecrasher podcast while out walking this morning, and Michael Woods was the guest DJ (30 mins of his mix at the end). So he’s the first person I’m listening to…
Full stream of the new Jake Shimabukuo album Grand Ukulele.
*swoon*
That man is all kinds of talent amazing… I’ve played this on repeat while I work all day long. Amazeballs.

I have so much reading to do. I need more music, and therefore seeking music suggestions.
So far, key qualities include consistent-ish volume and pattern, vocals mixed near the back so I’m less distracted by lyrics, but not instrumentals.
Good bands so far this week include Metric and Mark Dabney, and the earlier of Manitoba Hal’s albums.
What have you got for me internets?
You don’t know what is you’re missing
I got some mighty good love
and not bad hugging and kissing ”
Mojo Webb. That man makes me swoon so bad…
We’ll create the perfect night
In old Toronto, folks don’t know
What to do without the light
Well, I’d hold you closer than I’m supposed to
And we’ll go dancing through the night ”
I tell you to name your price
I’d sell my soul but you pay no mind
I call your bluff but you call me out
I’ll be forever wasting my time
I’ll be forever wasting my time on you
Oooooh yeah. Listening to the new album by Mark Dabney, from The Really Good Pot Roast, “New Thing”. Oh, the irony that this song comes up as I’m entering sales leads into CRM…
Love your work, M?!
You rock.
