Music 2007

Nothing really changed for me since this late October post: [clicky]. Add Jay-Z's newest "joint," and that pretty much wraps it. Ween was good. White Stripes were good. Fiery Furnaces came close to shifting paradigms. Jay and Kanye were very polished. Yawn, right?

What the hell? 2007 was pretty weak in big music. There wasn't even much in little music that moved me. Person Pitch won the Pitchfork derby (good). And, Burial topped Metacritic (good) where nothing from the past two years even cracked the all-time top-10 (not good). Like I said, what the hell?

Me? I think I made two albums this year; maybe an album and an half. Was Free Milk Seminar '06 or '07? Maybe 2007. I know that OSSOFG was this autumn, that I remember. But that remains incomplete. At least until inspiration drives it onward. Right now it's a collection of songs. But, it'll mature...Panda Bear (and Priceless Banter) saw to that.

I guess we'll see what leap year brings.

Or, to clarify, we'll see what we bring to the leap year. Clear?
