In Search of the New, Pt. 1


  • wfmu

    There's *alot* more here than just music. See latest post about Dolly Parton.


  • All Songs Considered : NPR Music

    Most of the time I find myself getting sucked into the 80's-dance-bubblegum-pop genre vortex and that's okay but it can get a tad repetitive. Listening to one of these podcasts here and there can help to shake things up.


  • fiql.com

    The site's a little clunky search-wise but seeing playlists with music other than what's only available on iTunes is very nice.


To be continued....

Don't you think it's gross that you get some of your music from a site that's pronounced, 'fical'? Am I reading into a bit too much?

Hey spectorgant,

Must you always take it there?

That being said, I do agree with you that the name leaves alot to be desired. According to the site, "FIQL is a play on the word "Fickle" which very much describes the music industry."

And I'm sure it'll please you to know that during my search to find out the meaning behind the name I found out what a Cleveland Steamer is.

Ew.

Does he always have to take it there? Duh. Spec is all about the scat talk.
