Bon Iver

So I was convinced that Bon Iver's for emma for ever ago was so "wintery" that I havent really listened to it this summer much, outside of at Rock the Garden. It seemed to me that it almost clashes with the warm sunny weather. Maybe its due to the fact that he wrote the record in the dead of winter. Or maybe its because I waited in line in almost below zero temps at the Turf Club to see him last winter. I dont konw. But it seems that this seasonality doesn't affect me as much in the morning. As I am listening now and it still has the profound effect of giving me goosebumps upon hearing the first few notes.

Maybe its because its kinda chilly this morning.

Or that its approaching Fall.

Who Knows.

Greg Davis and the Morning

This morning has been the earliest in quite some time. 4:30 is not an ideal time to begin daily adventures. It did however give me a chance to reaquaint myself with my old saturday morning work rituals. A pot of coffee, 3 Greg Davis records, and the sunrise. For some reason Somnia, Arbor, and Curling Pond Woods (in that order) is a perfect way to ease into the day.
