Comments

Who's Aim?

I notice that the only Lips track not on there is Yoshimi Battles the Pink Robots Pt. 2.

Hey, these comments don't support cite tags.

I'm not sure he has it, because of PodUtil limitations (it thinks it's the same as Yoshimi Pt.1 according to PodUtil).



Adam never told us who AIM was.

I have it. I'll tell you what its current ranking is tonight.



Aim is a UK producer.



His music is sort of downtempo, but a little bit tighter/more focused/beat driven than average. Some songs are purely samples and beats and sometimes he works with rappers or vocalists. From what I gather.



Hinterland is his 2002 album. I forget how I came across his stuff, but I surely dig it. I don't know much more, and I certainly don't know anything that allmusic or kazaa don't know.

Cite, schmite. What do you want to cite?

Cite this! How's that?

I love cite. I didn't even know it existed until recently. And I was dismayed to find that I'd been misusing the em tag.

For what were you using em? For what should one use it?

Well, after I found out about it I had been using it for all italics. But the usability folks say it's only to be used when you are really, really trying to stress something--like I just did. Em is for emphasis, a sibling of the "strong" tag.
