There has been a ton of music-ness going around over in my world over the past few months, so I'll try and summarize it all up a bit!
First off, waaay back in October, a revolutionary new thing happened: I went to my first official concert, with Switchfoot! It was an amazing experience finally being able to see the group in person as they played some of my favorite tunes.
Next up, I finally upgraded from my olde Palm Pilot to a shiny new(ish) iPod Touch, a major jump in technology, as it allows for more than 2 GB of music (it's sad when you have to delete songs to add new ones)
Near the beginning of November, I discovered the band that is now my #2, Relient K, with the purchase of like 7 of their albums for around $30 (Amazon had physical copies for less than digital ones?? What's the world coming to?)
Now, something HUGE happened around the Black Friday weekend. Specifically, the Indie Game Music Bundle I got a total of 21 albums for $15, and man, that stuff is amazing. What's more, after I finished putting them all on my Touch, this was the result: 1337 Songs. Yeah. Fantastic stuff on there.
Also about that time, was Skyward Sword. It's not just the game I'm talking about, it's the 25th Anniversary Orchestrated album that came with it. Every one of those songs was absolutely incredible.
Finally, December. Can you guess what kind of music I'll talk about? That's right! It's Big Giant Circle's (from the Game Music Bundle) Big Giant Christmas EP! It's unlike any Christmas music I've heard before, and I'm guessing that's the same for you, so give it a listen!
Then, finally finally, I just barely discovered (well, started using) Pandora radio (And spotify, but they only gave me two days of mobile premium), so I'll tell you how that turns out at a future date!
Well that's pretty much it! There's a few things in here that I might expand upon coming up, so stay tuned!
P.S. Don't worry, I also got plenty of Switchfoot swag:
