Ambiexcellence by Danieljose X on Mixcloud


So yeah, by now you only come here for beats (probably the world’s authority on such) or sleeping music (Spa music; so my wife tells me [I’ve never been so I wouldn’t know.]), or by mistake (I’m sorry for your loss, please sign the guest book anyway.). But today… you get a bonus. Words. Words for reading. (Or ignoring, or smelling, or whatever. What you do with my words henceforth is your business; I’m not here to judge.)

So yeah, I’m supposin’ this is 2015’s sleep mix. I used to put these on the soundcloud to make them downloadable, but I’m guessing that since there are zero downloads over the last five years, ain’t nonebody going to be starting now, so mixcloud it is. Even though, it pains me to live under the realization that some people out there in our nation are not adequately sleeping to these tunes.

So yeah, I’m not sure why I keep going on splicing songs together week after week and sending them off lonelyly into the interweb's abyss of crappy mixes; I often think, ‘eh, this’ll pry be the last one.” But then I’m all like “ooh that song would flow real neatly into this one, I should prolly try that…” then one thing leads to another and KaBEATS! Beats. I guess it’s like my version of model trains or something.

Repetative? Terribly. Still fun? Strangely. Purposeful? Nah. Juvenile? Basically. Waste of time? Psh, no. Homework’s the waste of time.

Perhaps someday I’ll resume bloviating about more significant topics, but this is all I have to offer for now.

Anyway, how are you?

muliebrous post

Hey.


How are ya.


Glad to see you.


I'm surprised you still come around these parts.


It being all barren and such.


Monthly posts.


If that.


Usually pretty stupid.


Sometimes worse.






Well, now that I've got your hopes down, have anothern!  THIS is probably the most incredible mix floating around the interwebs up to this date in history. It includes all kinds of music ...from about two genres. If you don't like the first track, wait for the second, you may change your mind. If you hate the second track, give the third one a try. If the third one bores you to an unarousable coma, you just wait for the bass to drop in the fourth track. If you still have issues with appreciation, BOOM. There's a fifth. Should your face implode with hatred for that one, bliggity-BLAOW! Sixth. By this time, if your fancy is anything but tickled, I'm sorry for your loss.

*Note: Uniquiest Mix Yet*

Know why?

It contains only female vocalists! Aha, I am no musical sexist! I am an equal opportunist for all composers; no matter the gender handicap!

1. Redford Piano Remix

Peaceful, delightful, trancendent, you choose the adjective. 

2. Florence + the machine - Take Care

Yes, I know Ms. Machine is mainstream, but you know what?  This is a good song.  And for that ...I don't know how to feel.

3. Little Dragon - Twice

NOT mainstream, these people make observably obumbrated obscurities.  Take a listen.

4. Bonobo (feat. Speech Debelle) - Sun Will Rise

This gal is british, mate   ... I mean, chap.

5. Seven Saturdays - True Romance (Teen Daze Remix)

Beats, people.

6. Lana Del Rey - Blue Jeans (Count Ninjula remix)

There is anywhere from four to four hundred billion dubstep remixes for everysong produced.  (Yes, even the Happy Birthday song.)  And I have taken the burdensome task of sorting through the mess of them to present to you the very best dubstep versions of a given song.  You're welcome.  Really you are.  And if you don't have some kind of positive response to this tune ..... I sigh in disappointment.  I don't know who's failed who... or whom ...or what ...or something... or another...

Valentina Lisitsa

Though I cant say for sure because I don't know how to read music, but I would venture to say that when people like Rachmaninoff and Liszt composed some of their pieces they included wormholes and various other time stopping techniques to actually play so unbelievably quick. (Can you really assure me that there's not some kind of alteration of physics hiding in there somewhere?) I'm just unable to comprehend any other way that mere mortals can actually perform so inhumanly fast and accurate.



Which brings me to my posting-point (aka the point of this post, aka the moral of this story, aka the reason you're here, etc etc). Its been said that there are fewer people that can play the works of Beethoven than have walked on the moon, and one of those few people is Valentina Lisista. Never have I been so seethingly envious over someone's secular talent. She is an unparalleled prodigy, a walking phenomenon, a reincarnated Chopin, a [insert hyperbole here], and AND I get the pleasure of going so see her (life permitting) next April, in Wichita of all places. Whoo doggies, I may have to go all out and rent a tux, sport a fedora, and carry a concealed weapon for this event!

Here are a few of my favorites; should you have a cup'o'tea, a pipe (tobacco, of course), a sufficiently condescending sense of culture (specifically an ostentatious appreciation of the arts), and about an hour or so, then thou shouldst listen forth!
