Incredible
This video is making the rounds again and I’ll happily watch it on repeat.
So many feels. Totally the beginning of my love affair with this whole scene.
20 years and still amazing af.
I’m gonna sit here and rave while I grade these papers. 🙂

Tough At The Top
Moving a bit slow this a.m.
E-Z Rollers and Origin Unknown is my morning medicine. Nothing like some funky/jazzy dnb to stop you from being so fucking lazy.
That breakdown in the Origin Unknown remix gets me every time. ❤ ❤ ❤
Ivy Lab All Day
I consistently have so much love for Ivy Lab. Hearts, hearts and more hearts.
I can’t get over how good their remix of Lenzman’s Paper Faces is.
I’m currently having a little Ivy Lab appreciation session here at the crib, so I figured why not post some tunes. 🙂
Ill Logic & Raf
I was listening to a mix the other day and the dj threw in an old Ill Logic & Raf tune, which of course meant I had to dust off some of the Ill Logic & Raf faves, and spend the whole day listening to them on repeat.
So so good.
Reluctant Sensei
Not feeling it today. Would much prefer to lay around and binge-watch bad television. Instead I’m making worksheets and what not, for lessons. Danny Byrd is pumping me up, and helping me not die of boredom. Hallelujah.

Treadmill Soundtracks
Had a fantastic holiday at home. Good lovable fam time, amazing friend hangs and an absolutely gorgeous wedding. Couldn’t really ask for much more. Back in the crazy Japanese heat and making myself get used to unavoidable pools of sweat just sitting in my bra whenever I even dare to step outside. Glad to be back. Ready to take this last year by storm.
Currently running to this on repeat. ❤ ❤ ❤
Rain, Rain and More Rain
Rainy season is upon us. Non-stop rain, non-stop mugginess. Meh.
Exams this week. No more classes to teach til after summer holiday. Going home to America next week. Woohoo.
A little Alex Reece and Lemon D to get the morning puddle jumping underway.
Um… How Is It June 18???
I’ve been meaning to update for a minute and time seems to just keep running laps around me.
Going home to America soon. Super excited to see my family and friends and go to Mollie and Sam’s wedding.
I’ll write a better post later. I’m in the midst of making review sheets and writing tests for the end of the first term.
When I get that done I’ll be ready to blab endlessly like I usually do.
Test writing soundtrack = A Sides & Makoto
Sun & Bass Podcast #36 – Total Science
Blog bday! 7 years.
I stopped doing my livejournal blog in 2008. I decided that I was always “all in my feelings” in those blog posts and real talk…, nobody could possibly care that much about my thoughts.
I took a year off and then started this one. I made the decision to blab A LOT less about my life and just talk about how much I love drum n bass. I figured that would make me only mildly annoying.
I was just telling Kate that between my livejournal and my wordpress, I have now been blogging for 14 years. That’s crazy.
I’m celebrating this 7th bday with this wonderful Total Science mix that they did for the Sun & Bass Podcast.
Oh Sun & Bass pretty please, don’t stop being in existence before I actually manage to be able to go. 😛
Friction
It’s a holiday week here, but I didn’t go anywhere. Is there such thing as being travelled out? Totally don’t mean to sound bratty. I’m very grateful for all the opportunities I’ve had and all the places I’ve been. I’ve kinda just reached a point where I’m not trying to constantly gallivant everywhere and explore everything. I have about 6 places on my bucket list that I definitely want to go to at some point, but right now, I’m kind of over the travelling for travelling sake. I’m really excited about going home this summer to see my family and friends and for the rest of the time, I’m content just being the most boring person in Togane.
I did have a lovely day outing in Narita with the Johnson sisters on Saturday and I also went to Kate’s taiko performance. So it’s not like I was a complete shut-in.
This school term is crackers. There’s so much stuff to be done. I’ve spent the other half of my holiday studying Japanese and getting ahead on our lesson planning. I started out listening to a Logan Sama grime mix and didn’t really get much done, cuz I was too amped and taking notes on tracks I “must have.” LOL. Enter Friction with this goodie goodie gumdrop. A little more lesson planning friendly for Kenyeh Sensei. 🙂
