last year wasn't a great year for music at least in terms of what i discovered so i'm hoping 2009 proves to be more inspiring! with the redesign of the blog i have lost a few things in the sidebar including the list of what i am currently listening to and currently reading. so expect the occasional music and book update.

i actually am listening to some great new tunes/albums at the moment including –

nu balearica a 2 cd set of warm house chosen by fred deakin
fourth estate by jon hopkins – an amazing 32 minutes ambient piece, the perfect soundscape for alt worship
undo by bjork – a single track but the most gorgeous piece which i heard in an advent reflection in austin last year
vampire weekend – yes guitar music i know! but really enjoying it
dear science by tv on the radio – coolest band on the planet right now apparently
a chilled selection of tunes joel put together from 08 (dubstep and all that) – very nice. you'll have to contact joel via facebook if you want to know what they are…
styrofoam – a thousand words and nothings lost

thanks to bob carlton, mike rose and joel baker for helping my taste!
