So much for Spring Break. I have a ton of work to do. 😦

I can’t believe I hadn’t posted this one.  It’s one of my faves from the Wormhole album.  (That’s not really saying much cuz I pretty much love every track on that album. )  I just got reminded of it listening to that Renegade Hardware History Session mix. ❤

I Found Some Hours For You Kiki

KikiLeave a comment

It’s funny that after saying that I don’t have enough time to write, I’ve managed to finagle in a couple of hours for the past 3 days.  It’s prolly cuz spring break is next week and I don’t have to frantically prepare for whatever is due next week.  Anyways, I’m definitely not complaining.

Jungle Rave Kiki

Kiki3 Comments

I’ve been listening to this song a lot lately.  The tune is ok.  Not really my type.  But then it breaks down into this wicked jungle rave at the end and I’m obsessed.  It totally takes me back to my raving days of yore.  I think I keep reflecting back to that time cuz I’m so busy right now and I would long for those days where all I would do was brock out to some rowdy jump up and hug the speakers.  Fast forward to about 3:20 and everyone starts raving.  I have the actual mp3 and it’s a full on minute of lovely dnb rowdiness.  Love it. 🙂

Back to my homework. 😦

I’m really digging these Renegade Hardware History Sessions.  Totally brings me back to what made me fall in love with dnb in the first place.  I totally owned this Renegade Hardware tape pack that this mix is from.  I’m glad I now have the mp3 of it.  Win.

Tooth Extraction Kiki

Kiki2 Comments

Well I had emergency dental surgery on saturday.  The pain became too unbearable.  Now I’m hopped up on meds and my face is swollen.  Def. not cute. 😦

I’ve come to the realization that I don’t have time to write in my blog.  It’s a sad realization but unfortunately true.  I’m not giving it up completely.  I just have to come to terms with the fact that I don’t have time to write the full entries that I used to be able to.  They’ll just have to be random posts here and there whenever I get a mo.  I know the end result of this ridiculously jam packed schedule that I have right now is exactly what I want and means alot to me but I still feel sad about having to scale back on these entries.  Boo.

This Jubei mix is dope.  Enjoy.

Midterm Kiki

KikiLeave a comment

Studying for midterms.  Grad school is good.  I’m still enjoying it but dang there really aren’t enough hours in the day.  I am stressed cuz I don’t ever have time for anything.  Sigh.  There’s a beautiful bright light at the end of this tunnel and so I will just keep trudging through. 🙂

Dave Owen is at Smart Bar today.  Go check him out if you’re in town.

Also Natives at Crocodile is tonight. Ike Release is playing.

Should be a fun night all round.  I’m excited that I get to see my dnb buddies. ❤

Toothache Kiki

KikiLeave a comment

Oh man.   The past couple of days have been quite rough.  I have an infected tooth.  I need to get it extracted.  I’ve been in an excruciating amount of pain since thursday.  The infection has caused some hearing loss which I’ve been dealing with since then too. 😦  I am so not a happy camper.  Things are a little bit better today cuz I actually went to the dentist and he gave me some antibiotics and we made an appointment to say sayonara to the tooth when the infection is gone.  TMI?  Probably.  LOL.  I guarantee you no one cares that much about my teeth. 😉

Tunes:
James Blake – Limit To Your Love (Lynx Remix)
I’m definitely late on this James Blake bandwagon.  His voice is sexy.  This Lynx remix is on point.  I like it whenever Lynx does remixes that have this vibe.  It gives me that Distance Zero melancholy feel. ❤
