Miscellany too short for individual posts

What I'm listening to:
  • I got my hands on six — read 'em, six — Ben Folds (with/without Five) bootlegs, including a couple of demo tapes circa 1993-1994 — you can even hear the audio pops on the cassettes! I think the fact that they're not super-processed makes me love them even more.
  • Also got an audio rip of the Ben Folds Five Complete Sessions at West 54th.
  • If you don't know (and you should, because this will be on the test Thursday), the only songs I listen to while editing are the Myst ambient soundtracks (Myst, Riven, Exile, Revelation and End of Ages). I hoped to find other works by Myst-series composers. Picked up Jack Wall's latest: the Mass Effect 2 soundtrack. Haven't listened yet.
  • I found and bought the English-language release of The Triplets' Thicker Than Water (1991). Heard of it? Didn't think so. But 10-year-old Kate loved TTW, and I've looked many times for it in the past. Glad to see it's finally on iTunes.
What I'm reading:
Things I need:
  • Suggestions for good ambient music to use while editing
  • A new computer desk
  • A new desk chair
  • Two muffin tins
  • Gas money

Awesome! Is there any chance that you can handle to share your Ben Folds - Complete Sessions at West 54th audio rip. I've been looking for it for ages without any luck. Thanks in advance!

Cheers!

P.S. Nice blog this one of yours.
