"Random rules": 10 random songs from your player - Page 4

Good one...

P.s. damn kids with their stereophonograms and automatically wound Victrolas

Post more lists people!

Put the iTunes on Party Shuffle: Death Is Not The End- Nick Cave & The Bad Seeds\t Here I Dreamt I Was an Architect- The Decemberists\t\t Hey Mr. Rain (Version One)- The Velvet Underground\t The Ids Are Alright- Guided By Voices\t\t Lookin' At The World- \tSon Volt\t Put On A Side- The Breeders\t\t\t Tell Me In The Morning- Cold War Kids\t Home for a Rest- Spirit of the West\t\t This Is Just A Modern Rock Song- Belle & Sebastian\t Haiti- Arcade Fire\t Record Body Count- Rheostatics\t So Much Water- M. Ward

Alter, cool list! Especially the Rheostatics. Since you're in Japan, you might not be aware that they've called it a day after all these years. Last show with the current lineup will be in TO at the end of March.

Nick Cave, good pick.

Somehow I got lucky and the really embarrassing songs didn't show up.

I did hear that unfortunate news ( I still check http://www.chartattack.com/ daily to keep up with the Canadian music news).

Have you read On a Cold Road http://www.amazon.com/Cold-Road-Tale.../dp/0771014562 ?

It's a worthwhile read.

Nope, but I just added it to my Amazon Wish List

You got lucky and ended up with quite a non-embarassing list (GBV, Breeders, VU, Son Volt, Decemberists, B&S... ). What the deuce does Party Shuffle do anyway that's different from regular shuffle?

The only difference is that it creates an actual playlist that you can view in advance (as opposed to regular shuffle which doesn't indicate what the future songs will be). I never used it before today. It takes away some of the suspense factor of shuffle but it is ideal for creating a "10 random song list" for your favourite style forum!

HMMM Winamp on shuffle. This is my movie computer, not my music computer tho, so I only have like 16GB or so of music on here. I'll post from the other comp later so we get a more diverse/obscure list. Most of this stuff is my bed-time music. (as the computer is in my bedroom) 1:Asuka Sakai/Adu Mizumori - A Crimson Rose and a Gin And Tonic (Katamari Damacy sdtrk) 2: Air - Electronic Performers 3: Blur - Coffee And TV 4: Lovage - Pit Stop 5: Boards Of Canada - Orange Hexagon Sun 6: Cake - I Bombed Korea 7: Lloyd Price - Stagger Lee 8: Bombay The Hard Way - Satchidananda 9: Aesop Rock - Coward Of The Year (remix) 10: Tom Tom Club - As Above So Below. That was more random than I actually thought It would be. Edit: and because I'm bored and I like breaking rules, you are also getting 11-20 Skunk Anansie - Secretly Air - Sexy Boy Danzig - Bodies Aimee Mann - You Could Make a Killing Devo - Secret Agent Man Bus Driver - Sun Shower Fine Young Cannibals - Johnny Come Home Fischerspooner - Fucker Dropkick Murphys - Dirty Glass Fiona Apple - A Mistake

Funny thing is I have never watched Samurai Champloo or even knew that song was the theme, untill after I downloaded it a while ago. My girlfriend met Jun Seba (Nujabes) at his record store in Shibuya when she was buying one of his CD's for my brother.

And all this time I thought it was impossible to use a keyboard with a cane. You have just become cool in my book (Note: I'm willing to look over Fine Young Cannibals).

Doubles up as an extra long, high visibility middle finger. See?

I bet it would also come in handy in lieu of other things, ain't that right, E.D. sir?

Well, you'd know now wouldn't you? Herr herr herr.

Great tracks.

Boards of Canada are getting a lot of love in this thread; they are on 3 or 4 of the lists so far.

I guess I oughta check em out.
