A new year requires new music in the kitchen. For those of you who don't remember, Music in the Kitchen is a sporadic series in which I share some of my favorite songs that I've recently been listening to while cooking at home.
Confession: I have an iTunes playlist created for most occasions.
Confession: I continue to have a burning desire to make a mix tape. Yep. A tape.
Confession: I tried to play Dissident by Pearl Jam at a local hipsterbar jukebox and the bartender or owner saw it on the cue and deleted it. This one's for you, pretentious music snot!
Confession: While I like artisanal cheese, I also like November Rain cheese. Seriously, this is a great song to cook to.
Confession: I have been playing The Hold Steady album, Boys and Girls of America, on repeat. Until I got the latest Thermals album, The body the blood the machine. Just bought tickets to see them at Bowery as well. Can't wait.
Confession: Yes, that Royksopp song down there is from the the Geico caveman ad. Yes, I love it.
For those of you interested, I post all of my Music in the Kitchen posts on iTunes as an iMix. Here's the January 2007 edition. Rock on.
joe!
thank goodness for your kitchen music playlists! you know i've missed them :)
re:your choices-
snowden is an atlanta band and has long been one of my favorites. do you have the entire album? its gosh darned good. i've seen them about a dozen times in the past year. they'll make it HUGE this year. its bittersweet.
that sufjan stevens song was part of my chicago birthday soundtrack...and its been on constant rotation ever since.
maybe we need to host a kitchen music CD swap? :)
hope you're well!
