A Brief Sabbatical

Unfortunately, the excu.. er I mean reason why this is going up at this time is because of Internet problems. Yes, I just had them this past November and I thought I'd be done with them for months, but I was mistaken. But, it's working fine now. Problem is, for the rest of the month I will just not have the time to do this, so the next time I'll post a song here will be on Monday evening, May 4th. By then things will calm down for me and be much less hectic, I promise.

Too Hot To Give It Up

Once again I'll tie something from my other music page over to here. If you look there now you'll see a post concerning Marvin Gaye; a big deal has been made over the anniversaries of both his death and his birth being earlier this month. I uploaded the song Got To Give It Up and figured it would be most logical to point out a mashup involving that tune here.

Once again I'll mention DJ Riko, who I mentioned last year for his Superchunk mix. If you look here, you can scroll down and find the mashup he did involving Gaye's song where you hear his vocal over the music of a song by UFO, which is a band that you never hear on the radio but from the songs I've heard from them, they're cool with me. It's more rocking than the original Gaye tune, but it doesn't make it any worse. In fact, it goes together very well.

I'll be back next weekend with something new.

Catching Up Is Hard To Do

I'll direct you here for an explanation as to where I've been the past few days. Basically, I've felt too crappy to do this until just now. Damn McDonalds food!

Anyway, I'll just quickly mention a link that I've brought up before, but in case you haven't bookmarked it yet or whatever, Popbytes's mashup of the week page-located here-is a nice source for quality songs on a weekly basis. I especially enjoy the latest song posted on there, a rather unique take on Kung Fu Fighting.

I'll be back this Friday, and as my schedule is clear for that day... at least I hope that I'll be more on time.
