#ep: campin'

1 and / or 2 from the new years ask ? Somebody already asked 3 so that's be the Music Trilogy

1. Song of the year? i think there are a couple of different songs that encapsulate different parts of this year for me. tldr is uhh trance, eurodance, mcelroy podcasts, young scrolls, and oingo boingo

early this year when i was in and out of the hospital and was still on my boingo kick from last autumn, but in my low energy and awful mood Private Life of 2019 had given way to a yearning for tenderness and healing with Stay. little did i know all the boingoloids would suddenly start empathizing with the plight of my Private Life come quarantine...

when lockdown happened i was listening to podcasts mostly (the McElroy podcast Wonderful is synonymous with Nazjatar for me now) but also a lot of trance and eurodance compilations, since they were pretty chill. i dont have a lot of memory of this time period truthfully. even my jukebox tag from this time is pretty sparse of anything super evocative.

song of the summer is definitely Chris C — A Drop of the Hard Stuff. the link is to the less fun remix (imo) but the original mix isnt uploaded anywhere. you can hear it at the end of my set from warstomp though :) (~50 min). farming mithril in felwood for all the fireworks/cluster launcher supplies for Warstomp also brings Mind of Man to mind. lots of eurodance and dark trance while farming too

the icecrown prepatch is defined by James Brown is Dead + (HAZARD remix)/James Brown is Still Alive/James’ Dad is Brown and Papa’s Got A Brand New Pigbag, all due to campin out for Bronjahm’s 34 slot Mint Condition Bag.  2. Album of the year?

Saint Jiub EP probably just for how damn much we listen to it haha. i dont really listen to traditional albums anyway; even all the boingo ive listened to has been pretty evenly split across all their albums (all but Boingo 94 anyway lol)

this is one of those times where spotify would be handy lmfao i have trouble keepin track of what i listen to and how often. memories remind me of songs more than songs remind me of memories i think

****WEDNESDAY FREE SONG #86****

“Throw ‘Nother Log On The Fire (Campin’ Song)”

Happy ValenTimes everybody! The time for Prince Valent and Van Halen to come together like Voltron and rid the world of real looking hearts and fill it with 2-dimensional fake looking hearts. The balloons are 3-dimensions I guess. Still fake. Nevermind. Y’all hear about the world running out of helium because we use it idiotically to make balloons float never thinking of how it affects the planet. I didn’t read too much about it (just the headlines for me! I’m too busy for research, but not too busy to spread fear and ignorance!), but it basically said we’re fucked without it. Who knows? Maybe someone can educate us. I’m just here to regurgitate words.

UNRECORDED RECORDINGS AND WHERE TO LOSE THEM flounders on with this oldie we wrote for our last camping trip however long ago…7 years-ish?

“Wait!” You’re saying. Who’s this WE. I thought these were Jason’s songs?! Well, Carolyn and I wrote about an EP’s worth of songs under the Rhino Party moniker way back when…7 years-ish? And this is one of those! Never recorded, but played during our camping adventure at the Wanee Festival in Live Oak, FL where we saw such wondrous acts as: Steve Miller Band, Stephen Marley, Ween, Allman Brothers Band, Robert Plant’s Band of Joy, and others I can’t think of right now!

Here’s a video we did in Scotland! https://youtu.be/cKMUI1lOq_g

It’s only got 46 views in 2 years so let’s work together to get those numbers up folks. We can ALL get paid if we work together!
