Playlist
1- ratatat - loud pipes
Just a great vibe on this one. Also check out the Ratatat Mixtapes, which are just fantastic and fun, albeit too damn fcc-unfriendly to play here.
2- common - a song for assata
For the activist in all of us. Educate yo'self!

3- smokey robinson & the miracles - tracks of my tears (live)
Smokey makes me melt, especially in this version. If only I could silence those screaming fans...
4- phoenix - rally
Some good pop music from my favorite Frenchies.
5- outkast ft. sleepy brown & scar - morris brown
Can't believe I haven't seen Idlewild yet.
6- chin up chin up - get me off this f*&!ing island
I love this Chicago band, with the best song titles ever. This one is from the album entitled "we should have never lived like we were skyscrapers".
7- white shoes & the couples company - nothing to fear
They're Indonesian and they play lovely indie pop music. I'm smitten.

Playlist
1- the kooks - naive
Pop music at its best - simple, catchy, and endearingly Brit-accented. I'm shamelessly addicted to this album right now.
2- the boy least likely to - monsters
Cutest album art ever? I think so. Certainly the cutest video games ever, in any case. http://www.theboyleastlikelyto.co.uk/games.htm
3- TV on the radio - wolf like me
An incredible, uniquely crafted album. I wish I were friends with these guys.
4- mr. loco - papas
Bonus points if you can guess which soundtrack this is from.
5- boy kill boy - suzie
So my alter ego is fifteen years old. Whatevers.
6- vitalic - wooo
It's fun to walk down the street with this track on the ipod.
Stay tuned for themed mixes in future posts. Suggestions welcome! Comment or email me.

Yeeesh... technology
My very first blog and my very first podcast! Still not sure if it will work yet. But the music mixes cannot be silenced.. so, here goes!
This is the online version of Tiny Comets Radio, my freeform music show broadcast on WCBN 88.3 FM Ann Arbor from 2002-2006, and also an easy blank-media-and-sharpies-and-postage-free way to make mix cds for peeps who might appreciate them. As well as peeps who might not. Let's just say it's an addiction of mine that I can't seem to shake, even after taking off into the real grown-up world. So indulge me, peeps of the world, and I hope you enjoy the tunes as much as I do!
Some other links:
* you can listen live to all the uniqueness that currently goes on in freeform radio at WCBN - it's a very special place: http://www.wcbn.org/
* here's a link to my old radio playlists: http://www.eecs.umich.edu/~marwajoy/tinycomets.html
