Just a note that i have made all the cds and also that my city has run out of puffy cd-sized envelopes in most retail stores, leaving me to line up for at least a half an hour at Canada Post to buy kind-of-puffy envelopes. So the current status is that my boyfriend should be mailing the cds out for me (such a sweet man, since i declared there to be no more Canada Post lines for me during the Christmas time) right about now, as i type this from school; far far away from the mayhem that is Canada Post. Hopefully, they reach you in a reasonable amount of time.
By the way, i am an avid user of and do genuinely love Canada Post. But sometimes, Christmas time breaks me...

I'm glad Christmas time didn't break you this year, because then we wouldn't have had a chance to hear another moody selection of fine music. That I had only heard of 2 of the performers (Melody's Echo Chamber and Kings of Convenience) earns you extra credit in my book. The collection itself weaves a fragile but playful dreamscape, beginning with Chilly Gonzales urging us to go to bed and ending - appropriately - with a hushed farewell accompanied by piano (also Chilly Gonzales). Mary and I have already listened to the CD twice in its entirety, and will likely give it many more spins in the not-too-distant future. Well done!
ReplyDeleteIn my CD player now. One of the nice things about this club is hearing music I would not normally be exposed to in all likelyhood.
ReplyDeleteVery moody and atmospheric indeed, a nice soundtrack for a quiet winter evening.
Love your austere cover art and beautiful hand-lettered liner notes.
