March Playlist
Remember when you’d download the hottest new rap tracks on Napster and then burned said jamz with Nero to a $5.00 CD-R to play in your car? Sure half the time the songs you downloaded weren’t the ones you were looking for in the first place or if you did get the right ones they were the edited radio versions. Then you had to wait an hour for them to download because your dial-up modem could only get speeds of 56k. And then there was our old friend BUFFER UNDERRUN (I will curse that name to my grave) that rendered our overly pricey blank CDs into suburban ninja stars. But heck, it was FREE! That alone was worth all the time and exasperation, right? And through all these trials and tribulations we find out Lars Ulrich is speaking out against our very way of life trying to shut down the mix tape. YOU CAN’T OWN MUSIC, LARS! IT’S GOD’S MUSIC. 90s in a nutshell.
Anyway, I kind of miss having those CD-R mixtapes lying around. I miss the sharpie chicken scratch that reads “ride to skool mix” or “trip to florida phat jamz volume 3″. So I’m making a March Playlist. And in a year I’m going to look back on and think how foolish I was to like those songs. And I’m going to remember everything that went on in that month because of this playlist. So here goes.

TUMBLR
Friends. Please check out my Tumblr briefrelief
It’s going to be my new blog and I’m going to keep it as updated as possible. It’s going to be the next dotcom bubble if i were to be modest, or the future if i were to brag.
Take a moment out of your busy stressful life (not you steve, you chief on that heady and blast that dead, you need not partake in this) and take a brief moment of relief, to get inside the mind of yours truly.
Shameless self-promotion all day baby.
