| What you're about to read is a collection of pointers to some of the music I've discovered on the iTunes Music Store, music I like enough that I want to share it. If you're an iPod owner and an iTunes fan (and if you aren't, what are you doing here?), maybe you'll find something new. Click on any of the CD covers to bounce over to the store and sample a few tracks. And then maybe stop by my other blog for a few well chosen words (and maybe a random snark or two). |

| Rocinate / Ester Drang | |

I heard an excellent lecture in which author
Malcolm
Gladwell explained why Pepsi wins the Pepsi Challenge and how Coca
Cola screwed up so completely with New Coke. Turns out our behavior
is different when we sample; what tastes good for a sip doesn't appeal
over a larger serving.
I mention this because I'm not at all sure that 30 second samples do justice to Rocinate, either as a collection of individual tracks or as a cohesive work. I like what I've heard so far; I just don't know how to describe quite what it is I like about it. Maybe after a few more listens. |
