PS. Also! Emilie Autumn’s “Laced/Unlaced” – the first half is classical violin interpretations & the second half is electric violin originals that are simply brilliant. “Manic Depression” & “A Strange Device” = YES.

Pretty good playlist. When the Open Sea Theme came on I thought, “this is silly I’ve heard this before,” and of course, it’s from The Life Aquatic. Speaking of great instrumental music, can’t forget The Album Leaf (Vermillion, Another Day are good tracks to start with).

I can’t believe no one mentioned Ratatat. They are great music for jammmin’ out with lovely sick beats. Good songs are “Seventeen Years” and “Germany to Germany” and “Loud Pipes.” They’re really good to play in the background while eating dinner with friends because you still have up tempo music and you aren’t distracted by wanting to sing along with words. Puuuuurrrrr-fection.

This is wonderful and even more wonderful because I always listen to instrumental music at night and, well, it’s night. I love when people share things, especially music. So Carmen, a thank you for that. In the meantime, I’ll share a few:
The three of us – Ben Harper
The swell season – the swell season
Amy – Dirty Three
Pastures New – Nickel Creek
London in February – Coastal
Let me back in – explosions in the sky

This is great. I had an old Japancakes album I would listen to all the time when studying, etc, and I need more of that kind of interesting and wordless music in my life.
