The Ultimate Put On Deux

A while ago I did a post called, "The Ultimate Put On," where I made a playlist of what music I was frequenting at the time. I decided to do another one. I originally wanted to do it quite frequently, especially since I'm always happily stumbling on some musical gems in my opinion. Unfortunately my little hp computer with it's Movie Maker made making the playlist something like HELL. But I have a new desktop and It worked out so much more smoothly than originally.

So here it is. A compilation playlist of some of the music that has stayed on repeat since at least the beginning of the year until now. It features songs that are recent, old, and hitting many genres. Most from artist you don't really hear on the radio. I hope you enjoy it and tell me what songs you have recently kept on repeat.

Oh and I added a downloadable version of the songs in the playlist if your interested in hearing/having the full versions.

Oh the places you will go!

The last 2 weeks have been ridic! I've decided to really work hard on my "Resolutions" this time around. And to get things started I decided to jump head first into traveling! It's what the 2nd or 3rd week of January and I've already been to Toronto, Hampton and New York. Not major-major adventures, but still notable movements none the less. I've also started my new job career related employment. I'm working for NAAM/ VH1's Save the Music Foundation. Yeah, son! Saving music programs in our schools. I'm hype for everything I can learn to hopefully start my own foundation in the near future. Also I get to do my new favorite thing...TRAVEL! What a great perk! I'm headed to Cali this weekend for a training conference so I can finally start learning what I'll be doing for the next 8 months.

Since I'm doing all this running around, I thought I'd leave you with a few joints from my current commuters playlist, I've dubbed the, "Chill Out and Ride" playlist. Hope you enjoy and hopefully will be able to take some of these tunes on your future travels. =D

The Ultimate Put On

I know that I'm constantly putting up music posts. It's because the majority of my life has been spent either listening to music, finding new music, playing music or writing music. This blog is basically about my life so it shouldn't be surprising that music will be heavily exposed on here. People always ask me what I'm listening to right now, or they ask for my suggestions on artist/songs to download. Even though all I do is surround myself with sweet sounds, I only have a mp3 player (from 10th grade!) that I use as my portable music device. Yea the one that plays on a AAA battery. It holds less than 200 songs so I'm constantly changing it up.

Anyway, I was influenced by Brittney: Anti-popular, to make a frequent posting of a video of the 20 songs that you can count on me listening to at any given time. I'll try to make it a monthly segment. This month's features some new and some old (mostly newer). I don't know how to categories it. It's a mix of genres and influences. At one point I thought of calling it a "getting it in" list. Moments later I thought it was a "getting high" list. But then in another instances it changed again. Oh well, regardless of the lack of classification, grab a pen and paper and listen anyway. Hope you enjoy =D
