HI!

Hi! Hello! I'm back!

My new computer is very, very, shiny. It is fast and has a 13-inch screen and I have a new iPod and OMG, my iBook had a 800MHz processor and this one has a 2.0GHz intel duo. It's possible its name is Fred. Or Ignatius. Or Roxy. I can't decide.

So, what were you guys up to the last two weeks? Got married, got a new puppy, wrote a new story? Fill me in.

I am good with rock, alt and idie; not so into dance; great with classical, especially if it's chamber orchestra, quartet or choral; okay with country, provided it's big on irony and has good melodies (I like some Dolly Parton, for instance, but not so much Shania Twain *g*); and I have a love/hate relationship with hip-hop, which seems to be entirely whim-based and hasn't got much to do with the goodness or not-goodness of the performer. I do seem to enjoy the bhangra-based stuff more reliably than other kinds, though.

Should I hook you up with some folk stuff? Wheee, okay. What do you like? Singer/songwriters? Bluegrass? Traditional celtic stuff? "World" music? *digs into the music collection*

Hrm, I can definitely do alt/rock/indie -- a lot of what I'm thinking of throwing on their has a nineties-ish vibe, nothing too punk or hardcore. A lot of my classical is full symphony, I'll do a bit of sorting; I tend to pick my country on beats (not a Shania fan, but I'll avoid the Big and Rich and the Toby Keith).

If you wanted to hook me up with some folk and world music, that would be absolutely amazing. I absolutely adore Dar Williams and Sufjan Stevenson, have a fondness for Celtic, am on a little bit of a east Indian kick, and tend to be interested in fusion music, strong lyrics, and things with minor tonalities.

... Yeah, basically what I'm saying is that I'm easy.
