note to self

[da]

pandora.com was good to me this evening. I was trying to concentrate on some programming gunk, and it gave me just the sort of music I wanted. (since it's pandora, I can tell you exactly what that was, but I won't, cause that's not what this post is about).

This piece in particular is great. I'd never heard of Assemblage 23 outside of pandora, but I've liked at least some of each piece I've heard. This one has lyrics I can get behind. At risk of sounding like a fanboy, I paste them here with the hopes that at some point when I need it, I'll remember:


Be still
Though chaos rains around you now
Only so much rain can fall at once
Breathe in
And let the air envelope you
And slow but sure, serenity will come

(Chorus)
Close your eyes
Try to breathe
Feel the ground beneath your feet
It's still there
The world still turns around

Hm, thanks. I think I haven't heard the last two at all (I've been a VNV Nation fan for a while; and I recognize melotron by name, at least). I'll track 'em down!

'Cause sometimes, german industrial (and german-sounding industrial) is just what the doctor called for.

I like Assemblage23's Depeche Mode influences.
