My friend Katelyn played me In My Mind by Amanda Palmer on her guitar and it stuck. So now I’ve managed to track down the tabs and lyrics and am going to start learning it! The lyrics are a great reminder to live in the present instead of constantly planning and thinking about how things are going to pan out in the future. Hippy-esque rant over! Enjoy the tune! That and Amanda Palmer’s CD cover looks quite amusing! ...

Came across this on Beatport – it’s a track on Simplify Records and it’s a lovely dark, moody, yet chilled dubstep-ish sort of noise. Well worth a listen to. It’s a great mix between the almost grimy side of dubstep and delicious acoustic sounds without assaulting your senses! Grab it on Beatport if you want to support the artist! Honestly, do it. It’ll make you a better human being, somehow! ...

Here are a couple of tracks I came across on one of the iTunes ambient radio stations. Sadly I forget which one, so I can’t really credit it with awesome music but that doesn’t detract from the awesome factor! httpv://youtu.be/eeev3HGBi8o httpv://youtu.be/pn8-qRGBrXA

Another awesome tune for your aural pleasure!

So, the latest DiRT rally game, DiRT3 is coming out in a month or so and one of the trailers I saw had an absolutely stunning soundtrack. So I looked it up on YouTube and it turns out it was used in some rather spectacular videos – like this one!

A friend introduced me to this rather awesome band whose only instrument is the drums. They do covers of popular metal songs. Watch this one first to get an idea for what the song’s like: Then take a look at the Van Canto cover: Pure awesome, I think you’ll agree!

Here’s a mix I threw together just past Christmas – I was bored and there was music to be played! XMAS Progressive Mix by Poolski on Mixcloud
