desert island discs

9:05 AM

a classic: five desert island discs

this list probably changes with the wind. were i actually on a desert island, i would likely suffer from desert island disc remorse.

i trying to go less with "classic" discs, and more toward discs that i *always* enjoy listening to, and in a variety of genres.

Venetian Snares "Rossz Csillag Alatt Született"
Einstürzende Neubauten "Tabula Rasa"
Sparks "Angst in My Pants"
Dream Theater "Metropolis Part II: Scenes from a Memory"
Olive "Trickle"

Thought I'd join in. You should get a bunch of local DJ's to do this and do a big post about it.

Best,

arratik: I'm not local, or a DJ for that matter (unless you count old classroom record players), but:

John Coltrane, "My Favorite Things"
The God Machine, "Scenes From the Second Storey"
Aphex Twin, "The Richard D. James Album"
Glenn Gould, "Solitude Trilogy: Three Sound Documentaries"*
My Bloody Valentine, "Loveless"

*I'm cheating. This is a 3-CD set.
