8xd :: special desert mix edition
this is not a real 8x entry. no mp3s up for grabs, no individual song reviews peppered with inside jokes, no shameless plugs, no downloading of zips and zahs.
this playlist, generously hosted on imeem, is the desert soundtrack. no, it doesn't sound like rattlers or crickets or dust storms. its sound is what you'd generally hear in the valley's airwaves. this strays away from the hard core sounds(think smooth jazz... so smooth and slick, think a coyote hosts it, trust me, coyotes are the slickest hosts out there). you'll only find the more... errr, "familiar" tracks here.
just a word of advice, the desert mix is a lot like living in the valley: its an acquired taste. you will learn to like it because you have no choice. as long as you have a choice(honestly, who in their right mind, except those with scaly skin, would want to live in 110+ weather), you probably won't like it. but it will grown on you.
and pretty much all these songs sound best from dusk to dawn. yeah, i didn't know some songs sound better on certain parts of the day either.
the first song off the track list is the only hint a coyote is on the list. yes, thats what the hard core stuff sounds like. and it made it here because its familiar enough. but the rest are a lot like that, less the familiarity.
third song down is a desert anthem. seriously. but take note, we're not all on crack...
fifth song down is another desert anthem. apparently the desert night brings out the young one in us all.
seventh song down is one of the more popular... "in memory of" songs. yes, its cheesy.
ninth song down(and onwards) can only be heard in my room. (hey this playlist is my radio! so forgive the intrusion!) =D
