Singlespeed & Fixed Gear "I still feel that variable gears are only for people over forty-five. Isn't it better to triumph by the strength of your muscles than by the artifice of a derailer? We are getting soft...As for me, give me a fixed gear!"-- Henri Desgrange (31 January 1865 - 16 August 1940)

The frickin Toasters. Damned ska is awesome. It's the last completely unpretentious, unabashedly unhip, completely totally fun thing you can dance to. Specially in London. Man I just hope there isn't a 4th wave.

i have read maybe 10 posts on this thread, not that it matters.

i recently made a mix of what i'm calling 'val's guilty pleasures' meaning either songs i grew up with or have perhaps been overplayed but still i like them. so VGP vol I includes: the rolling stones(x3), the pixies, annette peacock, CSN(&Y), jefferson airplane, the crystals, alice russell, stevie nicks, mazzy star, fleetwood mac, the ronnettes, the jesus and mary chain, jim white, the red hot chili peppers.

i'm also in the process of making tour de val volume II which I must finish before 2006 to keep with the (one year) tradition of making a tour de val. The tour de val is meant to fall between the tour da chicago and the "real" tour in france, but I slacked off this year. oops. tour de val I is awesome and reminds me a lot of my life in late winter 2004. if anyone wants it, i'll burn you a copy. ask teadoggg he seems to like it alot. definites for tour de val II include: sole, daedelus, jim o'rourke (he was on vol. I too), p.o.s, and potentially controller 7 and the restiform bodies and then various yet to be determined others.

i'm very particular about what I throw together because i want it all to convey a meaning. i love sounds in general and music specifically. i love aural landscapes. i love listening to the white noise of life. i love conveying emotion through sound.

and if you haven't noticed my longest, most un-bike related posts come when i should be doing something productive, like studying.

Anyone who likes the ronnettes is damned fine people. Have you been listening to A Christmas Gift to You from Phil Spector?

not recently, but last time i was visiting my parents around xmas i did. i have my dad to thank for many of my musical guilty pleasures (so many others not listed above) as I grew up listening to his old 45s, his huge ass vinyl collection and various local AM stations which played the 'real' music from the 60s and 70s. the crap on FM doesn't count.

i saw eastern youth one year in high school and they were awesome. their english was totally broken but everyone was rocking out and they were into the crowd and that is all that matters.

and since everyone is dropping the obligatory last.fm link, here's mine. in heavy rotation: yann tiersen, mf doom, stereo total, vive la fete, rjd2, mike relm, kings of convenience.

and no one mentioned pandora yet. it is very similar to last.fm but instead of users' tastes directing the music you discover, the have a team of musicians and what not analyzing all the songs in their database based on certain characteristics. so you hear new music based on what characteristics/styles you like rather than what john doe is listening to. i enjoy playing around with it and i use it at work.

This is one of the most awesome albums (are they still called that?) ever. violin solos, industrial metal, bluegrass, a rock opera (#15) You gotta listen

i have a lot of eastern youth, but it is from when they were still an oi band. that stuff is amazing. i haven't heard any of their later stuff, but word on the street is they went poppy/emo sound.

How long ago? I saw them in about 1998/1999. They were pretty poppy then but far from being emo but definitely not OI.
