If you track what’s playing on your inner soundtrack, you’ll realize that the playlist is often determined by what you listen to during the waking hours, when you’re trying to drown out other distractions or generally wanting to enjoy some music.

I’ve been researching, tentatively, this “freak folk” trend in music. I read about the bands in that scene in the NY Times, of all places, but have found a few things I quite like. Grizzly Bear and Tunng are favourites thus far.

This morning, the weird percussion of The Wind Up Bird, from Tunng’s Comments of the Inner Chorus, is swimming around in there.
