Remember when this used to be a song-a-day blog? Hmm, so do I. And I really -really! – hope I’m back for real this time. But other than saying that, I’m tabling all excuses and apologies – for now at least.
Today is a perfect day for some reinvigoration.
It’s a full moon, for one thing. And not any old full moon; it’s the smallest full moon of the year. I don’t want this teensy full moon to have any self-esteem issues, so let’s send it a little extra love when we (try to) find it in the sky tonight.
In my personal cosmos, there’s a much bigger event occurring. Starting today, I’ll be working with one of the smartest groups of people I can think of – co:collective. I don’t usually mix work and blogs, so you know it’s A Big Deal.
I’ve spoken of my psychic iPod before, but this morning it was especially on-target. I hit ‘shuffle’ to get my song-o-scope for the day and up came “Collective Mode” by Asian Dub Foundation. Now I swear on a stack of mp3s that never has this song come up in any rotation before. In fact, I think in all the years I’ve owned any sort of iPod, maybe ADF itself only came on once. But iPod and I are very in sync; I am indeed in a collective mode.
I’m sure you would rather hear about how this song is from way back in 2000 and that the band members met while filming a documentary at a Community House in London where music/technology was being taught to South Asian kids and all that kind of stuff. Oh, well. At least the downloads are back.
nice to see you’re back
congratulations on the new gig…
