or, All Time Top Ten.

This is easy in that it is not life and death, no-one is depending on you to do it, there are no repercussions for fucking it all up, and there is no right answer.

Here's the thing: Let's say you're You, and You are about to fuck off for ten months of exotic travel with just a backpack full of clothes, toiletries, a journal, a compass, and an iPod.

No phone. No computer. No internet connection.

You have cash, and in theory you can buy a prepaid phone or go to an internet cafe, but both of these things are ephemeral, fleeting.  Not in your rucksack.  Your rucksack holds the basics.

You've got an iPod with 40 gigs of space, and you'd like to have some music, preferably in some sort of playlist.

You have a playlist, for instance, called "Gettin' Down In The Back Seat" that has a lot of soul and funk that used to provide your soundtrack while having sex.  You have a playlist called "Fuck You" that holds ten tracks of hate.  You have a playlist called "I left my heart in Georgia" that is nothing but southern blues and appalachian folk music.  Your "Texas" playlist is all east Texas blues, central Texas soul, and west Texas tejano.

You have space for one more list of songs.  Ten songs, in some sort of theme.

This is where we, HuSi, come in.  We are to provide the ten tracks that will fill out the iPod.  There are a few notes:

  1. Assume that anything you think of will not already be on the list
  2. Assume that the tracks must be able to be found (bonus if you provide an offsite backup of your playlist at any of the local file sharing locations).  No hyper-obscure mega-ultra-secret bootlegs from bands that only existed for one afternoon.
  3. You have one theme idea in travel.  Some others are: escape, panic, melancholy, fun, vacation, beaches, Spain, wide horizons, exotic food, fuck off corporate America, nostalgia, missing home, finding home, and the least explicable one: Mary.
  4. You have a VERY limited amount of time to do this.  I am giving you until Thursday April 10th at 5pm CDT. CDT is 5 hours behind of Coordinated Universal Time (UTC).
  5. Genre notes: Go Fucking Nuts, but it would be nice if others could listen to the tracks and say, hey, nice music! without screaming and running away.
Got all of that?  All four of you?  OK!  Ready, steady, GO!

hyper-obscure mega-ultra-secret bootlegs by wiredog (4.00 / 1) #1 Mon Apr 07, 2008 at 03:25:08 PM EST
So "Last Plane Out" by Toy Matinee is out?

I'll start. by blixco (4.00 / 1) #3 Mon Apr 07, 2008 at 04:05:29 PM EST
This playlist has a vague theme.
  1. Brighteyes: Land Locked Blues
  2. Death Cab for Cutie: Summer Skin
  3. Soul Coughing: Sound Track to Mary
  4. Decemberists: The Mariner's Revenge Song
  5. Calexico: Quattro (World Drifts In)
  6. Bruce Springsteen: State Trooper
  7. Ani DiFranco: Providence
  8. King Crimson: Book of Saturday
  9. Tegan and Sarah: Dark Come Soon (Acoustic from Spinner's The Interface session)
  10. Supertramp: Goodbye Stranger
It's a rough draft.  That Springsteen  song is pretty jarring, and the Tegan and Sarah tune is very, very, very good but may not belong.

I know it *looks* like one song by MohammedNiyalSayeed (4.00 / 4) #7 Mon Apr 07, 2008 at 06:53:49 PM EST

But, I swear to God, I've been listening to that one song all day long, and it's different every time! It's like the perpetually new song the prophecies foretold! And besides, when that one song in question is so without human flaw, why would I need any other songs?

No, that was other kids. by MohammedNiyalSayeed (4.00 / 1) #17 Mon Apr 07, 2008 at 10:33:24 PM EST

Death Cab for Cutie writes catchy pop songs, and all, but this shit is serious art, by which I mean the sounds are familiar, yet alien, and relatively loosely structured, which means you can hum a wide variety of invented and complementary melodic lines atop it, and it also functions as nice white noise to put you to sleep at night. Can a pop song do all that stuff?

I sometimes regret . . . by Christopher Robin was Murdered (4.00 / 3) #34 Tue Apr 08, 2008 at 02:49:45 PM EST
That I never attempted to foster any musical talent after the implosion of Steelworker 151, widely considered among the single-digits of people who actually heard us to be the worst garage band in the history of sound.

Other times I think that, by refusing to abuse poor innocent sound any longer, I gave the gift of my not playing music to the world.

Mine is a secret honor.

Still, I'm envious of all the neat stuff you've had a chance to do. Bad room or not, that's pretty boss.

And I'm not just saying that because you're wearing your Ilsa: She-Wolf of the SS monocle and I'm intimidated. I mean it.

Um, but we have them after we take them. Right? We don't take and then give them away? Soon or later we have them, right? That's the point of taking.

Impossible by Greener (4.00 / 1) #9 Mon Apr 07, 2008 at 07:35:03 PM EST
I have done this (26 months of exotic travel) and I had no portable music source for the entire trip. I guess I don't listen to enough music in my day to day life to miss it if I am without  and I especially can't think of 10 songs I wouldn't eventually get sick of after listening to over and over.

That's not to say there isn't any music I enjoy, quite the opposite infact. I just don't make a habit of listening to music and generally don't like background noise when doing other tasks. Even when driving I prefer to listen to CBC Radio over whatever commercial music stations may be available.

If you're looking for recommendations however, I do enjoy this and pretty much every other song they've done.

When this happened to me by johnny (4.00 / 3) #13 Mon Apr 07, 2008 at 09:59:15 PM EST
I joined the Peace Corps in Spring, 1974.

In Washington D.C., just before shipping out, I realized that I was going to be living in a mud hut in the middle of the Sahara for the next two years. On the day before I got on the plane, I went out and bought a battery-powered cassette player and three tapes, which was all I could afford. I bought one album I knew and liked; the other two were albums I had never heard by artists I liked.

The one I knew and liked was "Sticky Fingers" by the Rolling Stones.

The ones I had never heard were "Apostrophe" by Frank Zappa and "Band on the Run" by Paul McCartney.

Sticky Fingers is great; "Band on the Run" and "Apostrophe" are OK, but far, far, far from the best work of those two musicians. Nevertheless, for obvious reasons, I listened to those two albums many, many times over two long, lonely years. I never really loved them, but on the other hand I never really got sick of them. In any event I feel like we went through 2 years in the desert together, so they're best friends forever.

Out there in the middle of nowhere I had very trippy encounters with "Dark Side of the Moon" by Pink Floyd and "The Cry of Love" by Jimi Hendrix. I believe I've written about this in K5 or Husi. When I say trippy, I mean, "holy fuck, is this really happening, how do these nomads in the freeking middle of NOWHERE, who don't speak English and have never seen a white person before me,  with not a fucking possession to their names, happen to have a battery-powered record player and THIS ALBUM???"  On two separate occasions far apart in space and time???

My girlfriend back in the states sent me tapes in the mail, and, when they didn't get pilfered by the guys in the customs office, they became welcome additions to my small collections. In particular, it was while living in a mud hut in Africa that I first heard the music of John Prine, Rory Gallagher, Bruce Springsteen, and Little Feat.

Speaking of which, my own "desert island" collection would probably include "Waiting for Columbus" of Little Feat, and everything by the best rockaroll band in this or any possible universe.

Buy my books, dammit!

Not one of you has mentioned Primus yet? by mrgoat (4.00 / 2) #18 Mon Apr 07, 2008 at 11:36:56 PM EST
Seriously?

Ok - My theme is "These songs are great, but do not belong together, nevertheless, I will never get tired of them."

I will leave out songs by obscure bands that lasted one afternoon. I'm also not going to put them in any sort of order. Play it on shuffle!

  1. Something I Can Never Have - NIN, the version from "Still".
  2. Third Eye - Tool. Preferably the one from Salival.
  3. Portrait of Tracy - Jaco Pastorius.
  4. Tommy the Cat - Primus. I like the live on on Rhinoplasty, with the "The Awakening" solo in the middle.
  5. Girls and Boys - Marcus Miller ft. Macy Gray
  6. Dark Heart News - Aesop Rock ft. Rob Sonic
  7. Ziggy Stardust. I better not have to name the artist.
  8. Melt - Monster Magnet
  9. We Want the Funk.
  10. Sunshine, Lollipops, and Rainbows - Leslie Gore. (Joke track)

I probably shouldn't have bothered by FlightTest (4.00 / 2) #39 Tue Apr 08, 2008 at 08:10:10 PM EST
I don't actively seek out music. I generally listen to the country or pop/rock FM station, if I'm not listening to news. I basically listen to what the industry puts out, because it just isn't that important to me. So my music collection is but a fraction of what I presume is the average HuSi member has.

I'm flattered by blixco (4.00 / 1) #35 Tue Apr 08, 2008 at 03:30:55 PM EST
and a bit terrified that I show up on 1.5 playlists (one mentions the cover of First We Take Manhattan as an alternate).

I will say, though, and I hope I don't sound vain saying it, that the recording of Losing My Religion is one of the best things I've done.  I'll actually listen to it. I was in severe pain (physically and emotionally) when I recorded that. It was difficult to get through the thing, and that was my one take...I warmed up for one verse, then hit record.

I'm pretty happy with it.

First We Take Manhattan being another. I debated between the two as the one blixco song I'd want, and Losing My Religion seemed to fit the theme a bit better. Oh, and I forgot to name the artist of St. Luke Summer -- it's Thea Gilmore (who is awesome, and everyone should buy her stuff).
