Random Ten #1

Ok, so "Random Ten" is totally a rip-off of an Onion A/V Club feature called "Random Rules", where they ask artists and generally cool people to put their iPod on shuffle and write down the first 7 songs that come up. I like this idea, and since they don't do it anymore and no one reads this blog anyway, I'm gonna do it semi-weekly so anyone who does happen upon it may find some new music, or judge me on mine.

The difference will be that I'll do 10 songs (10 songs is a miminal for a mix tape I figure....), and I will update the sample playlist to the right of this each time I do a Random Ten. If there is a better player with full songs please let me know.

Keep in mind that I do sample and sometimes review a lot of new and old music so some things that come up may not be some of my fave songs, just songs on my iPod, so sorry if they suck. I also have a 16 gig iPod so it's not exactly all my music, but because of all this I have to change the music on it quite often (with just the essentials staying on all the time) and hopefully there will be a fresh, different list every week.

So without further delay, Week 1:

1) Sonic Youth - Teenage Riot
2) Magnolia Electric Co. - Heartbreak at Ten Paces
3) Blur - To The End
4) The Ramones - Blitzkrieg Bop
5) Dizzee Rascal - Paranoid
6) Daft Punk - Something About Us
7) Barrington Levy - Send a Moses
8) Gorillaz - Double Bass
9) John Coltrane - Serenity
10) Blur - Movin' On

Please leave your own Random Ten in the comments!
