Code's eclectic music pick of the day is:

I grew up with this group, listening (and playing along) so often that I wore out the vinyl. The note held for one full minute in this song (at the 2:00 mark) taught me about circular breathing. If you've never explored the Crusaders, you're missing an important piece of American music history. If you dig this song, try the album "Gold" for an intro. Here's So Far Away, recorded live at the Roxy in 1974:

LOL. Was supposed to say "I love these guys"

Code's eclectic music pick of the day is:

Electric Pow Wow Drum by The Halluci Nation (formerly A Tribe Called Red). What else can I say, I love guys, their music and their mission.

OK, it's time to bust out some glorious prog. One of my favorite groups in that genre is Haken. Most of their songs are not quite as corny/cool as this video, but it's a great intro to their flavor. Here is Cockroach King by Haken (if you want to explore them more, I'd highly recommend the albums The Mountain and 1985):

This may not be for everyone, but the more I listen to it, the more interesting and haunting it becomes. It's like the soundtrack to a beautiful yet unsettling dream. Here is The Gone Away by Belbury Poly.

I usually only do one per day, but just saw a RDJr post, so here is a song by Robert Downey, Jr. (he wrote it, produced it, sang it and played piano on this track - really a very interesting album, overall)

Need me some power pop today, so Son of My Father, by Chicory Tip

And if you want to check out more of The Enid, I recommend albums Dust, Invicta and Something Wicked This Way Comes.

Code's eclectic music pick of the day is:

I only discovered The Enid a few years ago, but they are easily one of the most interesting "rock" bands I've ever encountered. Led by composer Robert John Godfrey, Enid songs are instantly recognizable, as he seamlessly blends elements of smart rock with lyrical, beautiful classical themes. Today's pick is special to me, and gives me goosebumps every time I hear it.

Someone Shall Rise, by The Enid.

Code's eclectic music pick of the day is:

I first listened to Jarre's music when I was a teenager, and to this day these albums - especially the older ones - remain prominent on my desert island pick list. Something about these mathematical arpeggios digs deep into my (odd) brain, and soothes me.

So today's music pick is the entire album Equinoxe, by Jean-Michel Jarre. Listen on headphones for maximum impact.

I especially like creating designs that people might ignore or 'not get' as they walk by, but then 10 steps later generate a chuckle (or anger).

I know that not many people think my stuff is as funny as I do, but if my creations tickle your brain the way they tickle mine, than we are likely in the same tribe.
I especially enjoy geeky, self-referential puns and irony.
