Mega Thread The Random Thoughts Thread Part 1

Soundcloud is pretty good. I originally stumbled across it when I was trying to find some information/links to an Adelaide band from the early-80's via Google. There I was re-directed to Soundcloud where some guy had uploaded their entire 5-MMM demo tape, as well as a live through the PA recording of Screaming Believers at the Union Hotel circa 1983 or thereabouts. You find all sorts of stuff on there. Some just available for streaming, other stuff for free download. Depends on the content and the person sharing it I suppose. You might like it.

Soundcloud is pretty awesome. I can get lost just searching through a certain genre/tag, and find some gold amongst the samey electronic stuff (which seems to be everywhere!). It's also intersting to hear random covers that aren't just soppy acoustic versions of the original. Wish they'd make the app better though.

I am the great mans researcher, confidante and dealer*.

Dealer of love, advice and good times.

He's a lucky guy, you make a great couple.

I thought about labelling who was who but I so don't need to.

In one of the worlds biggest coincidences that is exactly how we were dressed the last time we caught up.

That dude at the start used to roll up to the Woolies carpark across the road from my high school in his shitty little Datsun and hoon around for a bit, then he'd go and get a baked spud from the spud shop. This happened a couple of times a week.

Hey Dustholian 1870 did Cardiff City steal their marketing from us? One Club, We Are (Club)?

Good day of the Hottest 100 countdown so far!

You voted for "Pretty Fly for a white guy" didn't you?

I did not. I did vote for Self-Esteem though.

Can't believe Spiderbait - Buy me a pony only got to #62.

It is the quintessential triple J song.

I can't believe that in this day and age of instantly accessible music people still listen to triplejay.

Probably one of those "everyone else will vote for it so I wont" situations.

Well i didn't vote at all so i'm just one of those douche bags that complain at the end even though they could have had their say.

Wonderwall? I hate you Australia.

I don't believe that anybody feels that way you do about this now.

[Eddie Dingle]

I will find this 100 and see how many songs I have.

Possibly the $6 pints of white rabbit talking, but I enjoyed the count down.

I enjoyed not listening to it.

Beastie Boys - Sabotage
Modest Mouse - Float On
RATM - Bulls On Parade
Soundgarden - Black Hole Sun
M.I.A. - Paper Planes

Are the only 5 songs on my iPod from that list.

 

[Schulzenfest]

Modest Mouse are criminally underrated. Possibly because they have such a stupid name.

 

[Eddie Dingle]

I think it is because they are so modest.

They did the same count down 2 years ago and modest mouse had 2 in the top 20. And how can you vote for bulls on parade and not killing in the name of? Youth are weird.
