MUSICAWA SILT

Listen to MUSICAWA SILT by The Daktaris.

Hi all, we'll be getting back to regular programming soon enough, but I've been trying to enjoy patriotic festivities and also finish my (paid) work. Hope you all had as much fun as we did this weekend. Here's a funky number to tide you over. Also, you can go to our "radio station" on blip.fm and listen to hundreds of our picks there...

THE GIFT THAT KEEPS GIVING

THE GIFT THAT KEEPS GIVING by Super Furry Animals.

Happy Labor Day! We're very much trying to get back into the swing of things here, but the world is conspiring to make it easier for us. Our flight from Turkey landed early, Sarah had the apartment well in hand, Martin was happy to see us, I got to watch all of the Arsenal highlights from the past three weeks, I got to see Oklahoma hang half a hundred on some team in the first half, Arsenal won in style yesterday, and we had good company for dinner both nights we've been back. And, to the extent we're recovering from jet lag, we have an extra day off to sort that out!

Still, I'm not fully back on my game yet so I won't bore you with too much commentary on the song today. It's from the Super Furry Animals' latest release, and it's been a favorite here for a couple of months. It fills me with good vibes.

LISTEN.

Unexpected day off

The city has frozen us out of our offices today because of the steam explosion yesterday. Truly an unfortunate development.
