I hate pösts with umlauts.

Everyone have a good weekend? I had a sinus infection that made me feel like someone ripped off my nose in the middle of night, covered the inside of my face with rubber cement, and then punched me in the head when they were done. So, yeah, fun times. Anyways, I’m feeling much better now (DRUGS!) and hope to have at least one more post this week. Got good shit tonight too.

But before that, important business to attend to! I need help. Well, of course you all knew that already, but this is a specific call for help. Have any of you, my regular visitors, had a hard time finding the site? I know some of you use those RSS feed things, are those working? I just updated my Hype Machine listing, so hopefully I’ll get back on there soon. Are they any other aggregators I’m on that you all know about? I’ll need to let those mothers know about the new adddress too. I still don’t know how many people are accessing this site everyday, I haven’t yet installed a counter yet, mostly because I’m kind of afraid to find out!

I know the fucking spammers have found the site. In the month or so since I’ve relocated I’ve gotten close to 200 spam comments. I’m saving ones from a repeat offender/scam site for another SEO-content heavy rant. So that should be fun. But in the meantime, Icelandic awesome!

Hey, I hit the Bjork motherload! And all these tracks are just from two singles (3 records in all). Good times. Some of these tracks sound a little scratchy. I did what I could to clean them up, but it’s a tricky balancing act. It’s hard to de-click and de-scratch any track that has a lot of hi-hats and other treble-heavy effects in it. The result usually ends up removing both. And then it just sounds like shit. I’ve noticed that any Björk record I buy usually has some pretty major problems with it. I assume that is because the people who buy Björk listen the fuck out of it. I’m surprised I ever find any Björk used at all, so I’m not going to complain that much. Also, if your anal retentive like me, you’re going to want to fix a mistake I made with the tracklisting on the Big Time Sensuality tracks, change the total track number of the record from eight to nine. I just noticed the mistake and I’m not going to reupload all the tracks to fix something that meaningless. I’m not THAT insane. Well, maybe I am, but it’s late and my Nyquil is kicking in.

    oh man, my two favorite lost bjork remixes in just a few month’s time! The justin robertson remix of BTS, and the underworld remix of human behavior. only a pittsburgher could have such good taste. I need to move back…south florida sucks anyway

    RSS feed to Google Reader working fine here. How’s about firing a 301 redirect from the old to the new site that will push the new one up the top of Google?

    Excellent idea! And as soon as I figure out how to…do that. I will.

    I use Google Analytics to see how many page views I get. They give you code to embed in your website and you can track your visitors pretty good. Ie. How many new visitors vs returning visitors.

    Love your website. Thanks for sharing!

    Loved the early bjork stuff not so sure about the remixes – will need to give them some time. Found you through the hype machine. Off to read some of your other posts.
