Speaking from not too many miles away from Trig, it's pretty bloody wintery here, it has really taken a turn in the last few days, but I'll probaby wait for a good two sustained weeks of winter to proclaim the season in full swing.

Daz, I'm not really too busy at the moment and am reasonably experienced in putting compilations together and doing silly photshop playing about, If it's a pain in the proverbial for you then I can take on the burden,

 up to you

Well it's cold here, but we're not yet down to freezing temperatures and frost though. That generally starts around December time really.

right,

I will be reviewing all that has gone before but not all that seriously, in general this is the beginning of submissions, things people really want on there should be re-submitted.

I will be doing the bulk of my searching on Soulseek. anything obscure should be marked as such and I would appreciate attemptes to send me copies (PM for EMail addy)

I will make the compilation a maximum of 80 mins long for recording onto a standard 700MB CD. lodge any objections here.

themes to consider are as follows

winter

xmas

cold

wind

rain 

snow

frost

chestnuts

er....

that's it.

PMing still has teh buggered for me. If you can't find the Chris Cozens track (which is probably the more interesting), email me at steve@manthorp.co.uk. The Pretenders track shouldn't be too hard to find.

Good woman.

 

I reiterate my suggestions of Wizards in Winter by the Trans Siberian Orchestra and The Little Drummer Boy/Peace on Earth by Bowie/Crosby.

I'm going to be awkward and suggest 'untitled' by Sigur Ros, from the ( ) album (it's track number 3, but all 8 tracks are untitled). Give me a PM if you can't find a DL of it and I'll put it on my server.

I'd like Kalpol Introl by Autechre, from their Incunabula album. I tend to play it when the first signs of frost appear. Either that or the Imposter's Mix of Tricky's Christiansands, which usually what goes on after it.

Or, to get away from the bleak coldness of winter, how about Merry Christmas by Wesley Willis, as demonstrated here. How could one's cockles not be melted?

*Awaits post from Trig saying it's stupid and gay and the only people allowed to write songs about Christmas are East 17, because they did it in the '90s*

Bright Eyes - When The President Talks To God
Not bad. I thought this song might be anti-God, but it seems more to be against the president, which is cool by me.

The Ice Storm by The Go! Team please. Can provide. It's a b-side, very snowy and nice.

I'm actually doing pretty well just now Mr ManTHROB.

just can't listen to any of it for the moment sadly as 'er indoors is in the other room listening to audiobooks off the puter.

I will do a mp3 player review session on the way to work tomorrow,

also. I just realised that this means I get to put whatever tunes on of my own that I like!!!!

Just for the record


Winter 2006-2007 starts: Dec. 21, 7:22 PM and ends: Mar. 20, 7:07 PM apparently. So we're still ~3 weeks away from the start.

I find it daft that Winter actually (supposedly) begins on the shortest day of the year. No sooner has Winter started then the nights begin to pull out again :S

Oh I completely agree, it seems ridiculous. I always though as a kid that winter started in November some time. However, I was, evidently, wrong.

It is ridiculous, and that's why it's a definition that should be ignored, and one of the more accurate definitions uses instead.

quote:
Astronomically, it starts with the winter solstice, and ends with the spring equinox

...

In meteorology, it is by convention counted instead as the whole months of December, January and February in the Northern Hemisphere.

...

the winter solstice is traditionally considered as midwinter[citation needed], the winter season beginning 1 November on All Hallows or Samhain. Winter ends and spring begins on Imbolc or Candlemas, which is February 1 or 2.

...

the three-month period associated with the coldest average temperatures typically begins somewhere in late November
