RE: Playlists

In an effort to keep my shit blog alive in one way or another, I started posting these weekly playlists; a simple idea inspired by Radiohead's blog. The purpose of which is to inform the very, very many of you who care, of what I am listening to. But more importantly, I look to spread some good music and also perhaps serve as a reminder for a good song/artist you haven't given a listen to in a while. If you're having trouble finding a song, just contact me via e-mail, Facebook, Tumblr, Twitter, phone, in person, Skype, Oovoo, MySpace, Friendster, Blogger, Youtube, Xanga, postal service, AIM, MSN Messenger, telegram, fax, Pony Express, telepathy, World Star Hip Hop, etc. and I'll hook you up.
