I can hear the thunder rolling and I see lighting arcing through black storm clouds. Serendipity: I just came across on my walk with my dog.

Test pattern.

Finally seeing Shang-Chi and the Legend of the Ten Rings in the theater. I have a couple of spiked podcasts I want to catch up on.

Ripped.

Good morning, everyone!

I have 3 invitations to Literal.Club if you want one.

Tonight I get to see one of my favorite human beings on the planet: my grandkid.

DJ Shadow and Mark Mothersbaugh, if you should read this post, may I suggest you two gentlemen collaborate on an album? You can thank me later for the inspiration.

DJ Shadow mentions David Axelrod’s Songs of Innocence album during the interview. I’ve been kind of obsessed with that LP the last few years. I would have loved to have Axelrod guest deejay an episode of Genius and Soul.

My friend turned me on to this interview with DJ Shadow about his Entroducing album. It’s been a minute since I last listened it but now I’m down the rabbit hole.

I’m only a couple of tracks in, but so far I’m impressed with Spotify’s algorithm that’s responding to my increased listening of jazz, black metal, and my usual weirdo inclinations.

I’ve dropped hints about Project X. I’m happy to share that Jan 1 I’ll launch Genius and Soul. The show will feature handpicked tracks lovingly selected by our guest deejays from the jazz and Black classical community. Follow us on Twitter to learn more.

I purchased Audio Hijack 3 for Project X and I’m glad I did. Fantastic app. I purchased Audio Highjack Pro years ago but 3 is dead simple and extremely powerful. Still trying to wrap my head around how I might use Loopback.
