Music swims back to me

The night I came I danced a circle and was not afraid.

  1. The Whitest Boy Alive - Keep a Secret
    Rules (Bubbles / 2009)
  2. French Kicks - Also Ran
    Two Thousand (Vagrant / 2006)
  3. Violens - Already Over*
    Violens Ep (Cantora / 2008)
  4. Mike Bones - What I Have Left
    A Fool for Everyone (Vice / 2009)
  5. The Sea and Cake - New Schools
    Car Alarm (Thrill Jockey / 2008)
  6. I Was A Cub Scout - Pink Squares
    Pink Squares (XL / 2006)

Imagine it. A radio playing and everyone here was crazy.
I liked it and danced in a circle.
Music pours over the sense and in a funny way
music sees more than I.
I mean it remembers better;  remembers the first night here.

* High sample rate: 48.000. Will not stream properly on the page, must download to listen. (Which reminds me, is there anyone around that happens to know how to convert mp3s from 48.000Hz to 44.100Hz?)

    I love Erlend! Thanks for the newest track, Keep a Secret…I can’t wait for more from him and Kings of Convenience as well.

    hi there!

    Try Audacity - just import your song, then export at 41 100Hz. It’s also good for many other things.

    Here’s a link: http://audacityteam.org/forum/viewtopic.php?f=26&t=48

    I’ve been rudely dropping by for a while and never commented. Sorry. What you’re doing here is really impressive and I’ve learned a lot, felt a lot, and for me, your blog is the best I’ve ever found.

    Thanks so much………
    Lauren

    Thanks for Sea and Cake. I don’t care it’s the same song over and over to everyone except you and me over and over, that’s the point.
