The hum of the computer. I was going to be listening to Peter Ullrich
(affiliated with DCD, and mostly produced by DCD's Brendan Perry), but I
dismantled my speakers last night and feel too lazy to remantle (heh heh)
them.

It's not playing exactly at the moment, because I'm internetting from the
public library, but all week long I've been driving around Seattle listening
to Augustus Pablo's classic dub album "King Tubby Meets Rockers Uptown."
I still remember buying this album ten years ago after reading an article
on dub music which praised it as one of the classic examples of the genre.
And I remember my sharp initial disappointment with it. I stuck it away
in a corner for six months, pulled it out and listened to it again, and
agreed with my earlier decision that it was bland and uninteresting and
somewhat annoying. I did the same thing several more times, putting it
away, finding it months later, and deciding to give it "one more chance."
On about the fourth or fifth such listen, something just *clicked* (very
likely literally on a dub album.. ;-) and it was like I was listening to
a whole other album, one that was hidden inside the first one.. I still
can't describe the experience very well, but I *can* say that there aren't
many albums I could listen to this many times and still find unexpected
surprises on each listen..
If my allotment of daily internet usage time weren't about to run out,
I'd be inclined to start an item to discuss albums like this: the ones
you just "didn't get" at first, then learned to love. Or is it just me
who does that?

"Undertow," R.E.M.
I've been giving "New Adventures in Hi-Fi" a second chance this week, after
not listening to it for almost a year. I'd forgotten how much I like it.
