Ben, you appear to be listening to the same song over and over again. Also... this is getting bad, we really need to get together soon!

Hi neighbour! http://www.last.fm/music/Paris+Inventors Listen to the new Paris Inventors demo single =)

I just realized that this is where I should have left you a birthday note, haha. Happy birthday (one day late)!

Ikue Asazaki, the traditional Japanese singer from Ryukyu islands is back with a new three song release that just came out today! Check it out and read up on her latest project: http://www.hearjapan.com/store/album_info/Anma

Thanks for the suggestion! I think I might have some Nouvelle Vague on my laptop... somewhere... but have yet to check it out. Will do! We definitely have to catch up sometime soon - I've been swamped too. I keep expecting things to calm down, but it hasn't happened yet. Hope to see you SOON!

I'm pretty sure the entire Smith family loves Royksopp - I think my dad introduced me. How could you not love a song that features Robyn singing the lyrics "I'm in love with a robot"? And have you watched that video? It's ridiculous.

Hey, are we ever catching up?! And by the way, how on earth is our "music compatibility" LOW?! I find that hard to believe.

Yes, that's right, I just listened to Alex Britti. A notch was just taken up. It goes without saying that I'm still taking suggestions for more songs for the 'Up a Notch' list, no matter how ridiculous. It is currently stalled at 7 songs, one of which is the surprisingly intense 'My Heart Will Go On.'

I am a bit shocked to see that Ladytron isn't high on your list. They are such Ben music, it is almost ridiculous. Consider the situation ridiculed. Try d/ling Black Cat or Destroy Everything You Touch.

Hi neighbour if you like Lali Puna then try Ms. John Soda they are great too ^_^.
