    Tracks of the Week: Work

    Au Pairs "We're So Cool" - The two tracks this week are related to my work, and this first track is great post-punk from 1981. Along the lines of the Mekons and Gang of Four, the Au Pairs delved into hyper-political themes and tight feisty grooves. What's interesting is when you look up this record on Amazon, in the section called "Customers interested in The Au Pairs may also be interested in...", you'll see my company. Buy It.

    Mice Parade "Focus On A Roller Coaster" - OK, so roller coasters have nothing to do with my work. But you better believe that if I was a carnie, I'd fight my way to be the roller coaster operator. Who cares about the ferris wheel or the tilt-a-whirl. Coasters are where it's at. Roller coasters, that is. Not coasters that keep your drink from sweating on your coffee table. Anyway, this is a nice track and that's all I have to say. Buy It.
