Thanks to a recent week off from work, I am able to rejoin this project again. My newest mix begins with some smooth electronica and quickly moves into contradictory pop territory: from a song recently featured as a Starbuck's single to one of my favorite longtime artists, Suzanne Vega, to a funky cover of Beyonce's 'Halo' to a song featured on a Korean Gap ad (and one I couldn't get out of my head for weeks) to some indie rock to pure, unadulterated K-pop that I hear incessantly from my students' iPods (and therefore, can't get out of my head for weeks). Thus, to say the least, this mix is all over the place. So, like a venereal disease, in the name of sharing for pleasure, get the latest goods. Yiggay'all, Carl.Tuesday, February 16, 2010

This one is my favorite of the two you've submitted thus far. Cool stuff, Carl. Nice sequencing too.
ReplyDeleteThanks Chris...you even like the K-pop? For some reason, I still have a thing for formulaic pop songs that just, well, do what they do...having fun with this and enjoying all the mixes on the site.
ReplyDeleteI liked it all. Some of my favorite mixes weave in a little pop here and there, and, frankly, I like a lot of pop music in general. Justin Timberlake, Rihanna, B. Spears, Pink, and Miley Cirus (gasp) each have a song or two floating around on my IPod. Sometimes a good pop song is just a good song through and through.
