So I found the glasses. They were doing an impression of a stick insect hidden on a pile of similiar-toned objects in plain view.

I had already emptied two bags of office garbage thinking perhaps they had fallen off my head and landed in the bag unnoticed while I was in a cleaning frenzy. Lovely, two hours looking at my old marketing notes again.

So I am listening to NIN (Nine- inch - nails) album Broken

Cool... I was just looking for a way to post a sample mp3 from Broken (none to be had - sorry) and discovered instead that Reznor released his last two singles as garageband files to his fans so they could remix them as they wished.

As he says;

Well, the experiment of releasing the hand that feeds in garageband format was a resounding success. for those of you unaware, i essentially gave away the master multitrack sessions for that song for you to remix / reinterpret / ruin. last I checked, there were hundreds of remixes and info posted here alone.

That's pretty nifty.. I would spend more time taking a peek at what happened, but since I meant to start this entry as a paean to my age-old love for the 1993 ep and not for any present fan-dom I don't think I should waste anymore precious work time.... ah it's so tempting.

I really really loved NIN back in the day (...of plaid shirts and purple doc martens don'tcha know). Although, and I am going to sound like a fogey for saying this, I doubt his new stuff is going tobe as enjoyable as what I am currently listening to, it certainly won't have any nostalgia value.

Ohhhhh........This is such a good album, I should just put a couple of songs up

Gave Up
Physical (you're so)

Okay make sure you have head phones on if you are in a public place, and realize that this is very good pop *industrial* so don't hate me if you actually hate it.
