Chaff n' a Nap

1. It's that time again, the LOW-KEY TECHNO NAP ALBUM OF THE YEAR, yes yes my pinch-hitting #20 album of the year guaranteed the spot (except I doubt there won't be 20 better albums, so alternate-spot) because of its utilitarian value -- FACILITATING A GOOD NAP.

Former winners in this field include The Eraser by that guy wots in Radiohead, A Strangely Isolated Place by Ulrich Schnauss, and...I dunno, that Hood album from 2005 (scanning my year-ends). No, Eluvium. I don't even remember what it sounds like, actually, but I think you can nap to it.

To sum up, this is a very important award, because naps are very important to me. Which is why it gives me great pleasure to present this year's award to Pantha du Prince for This Bliss. Kudos for making the cut in the second month of the year (when I first dl'ed the album), meaning I don't have to listen to another techno album until 2008.

2. Still undecided on Avril. Will probably remain so, but definitely won't be a top twenty contender. More later.

3. Hey, wait a minute, I've done TWO techno songs, though you couldn't nap to either of 'em. One was for an electroacoustic class and one was fr my plezure in high school, EXORCIST REMIX. One of the two is available upon request. Actually both are available, but one's only a MIDI file.

4. Hm, very difficult to post to other threads on ILM that are not about teenpop. Not that I did before or anything.

5. Ross, Eppy, etc., how was EMP???
