winterreview

It’s been a while since I’ve lost sleep in anticipation of Christmas Day goodies.  As a kid, thoughts of the Transformers Dinobots and Legos were usually the culprit.  This year:  The Underwater Peoples Winter Review.  Seriously, I ran to the computer and downloaded this before I even took a glimpse at any wrapped boxes.  After some quality headphone time, we would like to share this awesome compilation over airwaves (um, internet airwaves) from cover to cover.  Since our episodes are 16 tracks long (the comp being only 15), we thought it fitting to lead off with MJ’s “Human Nature”.  Head to Indie-Verse for the broadcast and, when you’re done, download the entire thing free (for a limited time) at Chocolate Bobka’s.

MJ

Wow, yesterday I took about five hits below the belt.  First, Seeds frontman Sky Saxon takes a bow.  Then, the beautiful Farah Fawcet lost her battle with cancer.  Can’t say I was all TOO saddened by these, but I can be a sympathetic guy.  In the middle of work yesterday, everything (literally EVERYTHING) was put on pause to talk about MJ’s heart attack.  Within ten minutes, his death was already confirmed.  No matter your opinion on Michael’s personal lifestyle, his impact on the music universe cannot be debated.  From a childhood star at 11 to an icon at 50 whos name will forever be engraved in a generation.  This is a playlist of some of my favorite MJ tunes.  It may not encompass his career, but I find it only fitting to show respect to someone that has affected something [music] that I love so much.  RIP MJ.  For great articles on the subject:  Pitchfork, New York Times, Rolling Stone, and Dallas Morning News
