I was browsing through my Anywhere.FM playlists and came across a couple songs I havn`t heard in a long time. I would imagine I called each of these my favorite song at one point or another.

My taste in music includes pretty much everything you could imagine. If you have a song you think I might like then please post the name or even a link (youtube). I love listening to other peoples music so try me.

So I have now been living in Edmonton, Alberta for about 2 weeks now so here are some thoughts. The weather is starting to get a little cooler here now so I am going to have to get some money together and do some shopping if I want any hope of staying warm this winter. Apparently they have pretty cold winters here.

We moved into our apartment on our second day after spending the night in the airport. We only ended up getting a one bedroom apartment but considering we didn’t have all that much stuff to put in it its alright for now. We hope to upgrade to a two bedroom high rise once we get a little more established.

Andrew and I both started working only a couple of days after our arrival and the hours have been fairly long (10-13 hours per day) but the workload should slowly become less and less once we are able to catch up with the work that wasn’t complete the previous two weeks (workers quit). 

I have been posting photos to flickr and you can find all the ones from Edmonton in this set.

Also, check out this song by Bubba Sparxxx called Comin Round (mp3)

Most of the time when we see photos of beautiful places on Earth they are places we can recognize (geographically) or relate to in some way or another (mountains, waterfalls). The same could not be said for some of the places outlined in Dark Roasted Blends article on alien looking locations here on earth, including its isolated islands and smiling trees.

In the hopes of saving metal music (could we do without? I think so.) the ever popular Metallica is looking to win fans over with their new album, Death Magnetic, after failing miserably with their last album, St-Anger. As many of you know Metallica is not very well liked on the internet as they have had an on-going (although failing) battle with online piracy for many years now. St-Anger was actually released five days prior to the official launch because the album was leaked over P2P.

Now comes 2008 and not to much as change. New album, new leak. A lot of the same game. You can probably enjoy the album if you click here. I have yet to listen to the whole album so I can’t really give my opinion on it but I’m sure you can get a good idea from here.

You’ve seen Safari, Firefox and Internet Explorer (and maybe some of you Opera) but you have not experienced the web until you’ve used Google’s new weapon into the browser war, Google Chrome. Quite possibly the easiest, simplest, fastest and most elegant browser I have ever used. It has been a while in the making but it has finally arrived. I’m afraid to see what this will do to firefox’s market share as many firefox users only want the best and will make the move quite willing to get it. The plug-ins are one of the major things I have missed so far but I’m sure Google will provide there own solution to this problem. You can download it now (free) here.

So just a little post today to let everyone know about a new artist I found today called Bearbot. You can listen to most of his remixes @ TheSixtyOne.com for free (as well as download). The titles of most of his songs might not ring any bells at first but check some of them out and you definitely will recognize some of the songs he’s mixed.
