As the second of my mixes got pulled from Medi@fire, I’m experimenting with alternative platforms. Pod-o-Matic seems to have potential. It even sends things through iTunes [RSS] which is all very exciting. I’ll play with it for a while before investing in a Pro account.
I notice that it renders files into cheap n nasty 96kbps so for the moment, stick with dodgy ol’ Medi@fire until I can do better.

pure imaginationUm, it’s been a while…

I had only two criteria:

  1. Can this be danced to?
  2. Can it just be listened to?

Over to you…

His post inspired my post and still they come every day to find out something about Titanic only be bombarded with Sufjan Stevens’ sexuality, funky house and Obama’s tweets.

I’m off to Canada for a fortnight from Sat 28th. Good timing, as the day before I will have handed in my 4,000 word assignment for the OU (which is currently at an, ahem, interesting stage…)
We’re starting in the west in Vancouver then making our way across the country taking in various cities and ending up in Toronto. With a bungee jump somewhere in there (and car hire: I have to drive a few hundred kilometres on the wrong side of the road – I’m not sure which is more terrifying!).
Anyway, in celebration of all things Canadian, here is a mix of all of my favourite Céline Dion and Bryan Adams tracks. 
Or, maybe this:
