Came across a new album: [[http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/tg/detail/-/B00020W0Z6/002-7210026-9576015?v=glance|Between Heaven and Earth]] by A. R. Rahman and others. Just instrumentals. Sometimes fusion, always different, mostly impressive.
**Highly recommended**
Came across some really good music recently: Kashmkash by [[http://www.almsforshanti.com/| Alms for Shanti]], [[http://www.raagasong.com/GetHindiMovie.asp?Movie=Virudh | Virudh]], [[http://users.cis.net/sammy/kissme.htm | Kiss Me]] by Sixpence None the Richer (I don’t know why that link shows up as the first hit on Google!!)
Today I also tried out the pool here at Villa Monte for the first time. Felt reallyyy good. I had forgot how much I enjoy swimming :-) Now there’s one more incentive to work well at office so that I can come home to a nice warm swimming pool!
[[http://www.neato.co.nz/ | Christine]] is still working on [[http://www.neato.co.nz/archives/2005/07/13/ultimate-tag-warrior-20/ | UTW2]] and so the tag cloud has disappeared for now. But I have bugged her and the cloud (or heat map, whatever you wanna call it) will be back soon.
It happened. Finally. Not like I’d been waiting or something, but it was good for a change. For all these years, I haven’t really been able to appreciate any kind of hard rock, despite being surrounded by devout rock fans. Asim was kind enough to provide me with a list of songs, in increasing order of “hardness” which would help me in my first steps into the world of hard rock. Though I didn’t quite make it to the end of the list, I really liked some songs — like Low Man’s Lyrics.
