		<title>Strictly 4 My R.A.I.N.Y. D.A.Y.Z.</title>
		<description><![CDATA[<style>.newl {display:none}</style><div class=newl></div>
This is a follow-up to last year&#8217;s rainy day podcast. There are no explicit lyrics that I know of and 2pac did not posthumously contribute to this play list. If he did, he might still be my hero.

		<title>Study Music Vol. 3 - Winter Work/Global Grind</title>
		<description><![CDATA[As I&#8217;ve listened to Volumes 1 and 2 several times, there has been a personal realization that the cerebral nature and introspective quality of this series causes these compilations to be a bit distracting for reading purposes. It depends on the person and context of course, but these instrumental mixes might be better titled as, [...]]]></description>

		<title>Best Pop Music of the Decade [00s]</title>
		<description><![CDATA[When the folks at All Songs Considered congregated to discuss the defining music of the 00s (also known as &#8220;The Noughties,&#8221; &#8220;The Aughts,&#8221; or other unspeakable titles), a couple of trends stuck out in my mind that are worth highlighting. First, in the digital age of i-pods and downloading mp3s, there has been an  [...]]]></description>

		<title>Hip-Hop is Dead? The Best Hip-Hop of the Decade [00s]</title>
		<description><![CDATA[For most hip-hop listeners in their late twenties and thirties, it&#8217;s quite hard to know what exceptional albums emerged over the past ten years. We recall the glory decade of the 90s, from the gritty east coast to the gangsta west, but what about the 2000s?
Without a doubt, hip-hop continues to run &#8220;through my veins [...]]]></description>

		<title>The Lo-fi Aesthetic: How the 90s Recording Rebellion Created a Genre</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Some people believe that vinyl is the only and truest manner to listen to particular music. This loyalty is understandable because the sound and speed of a record, the listening experience, and tradition can be very important to people.

Similarly, some artists and bands like the raw and gritty sound produced by recording devices like the [...]]]></description>

		<title>Song of the Week: The Grouch &amp; Eligh - Say G&amp;E!</title>
		<description><![CDATA[I&#8217;ve been hearing The Flaming Lips&#8217; Yoshimi Battles the Pink Robots all over the place this summer. It really is a classic album now and every time I hear, &#8220;I don&#8217;t know where the sunbeams end and the starlight begins, it&#8217;s all a mystery,&#8221; I sing along.

When I first heard The Grouch &#038; Eligh&#8217;s G&#038;E [...]]]></description>

		<title>Guest DJ LAW: Summer Means Feelin&#8217; Good - Rollin&#8217; Spokes</title>
		<description><![CDATA[When the summer hits, spring has suddenly transcended from full bloom to unbearable swelter - intensely dry or brutally sticky. It depends on your location, right? I wonder whether folks complain more about the weather in January or August.

The efflorescence of spring/early summer is marvelous and the aggregate happiness of people cannot be refuted. Limes [...]]]></description>

		<title>The 3rd Annual G5 Summit: Mexico/El Mundo Entero</title>
		<description><![CDATA[
As David and Alex both noted earlier, the 3rd Annual G5 Summit was a dream trip. I really wish that everyone could have a group of tight friendships, shared interests, and fortunate vacation time. As a group of five gents, we thrive on our thirst for culture, our love for a cornucopia of beats, the [...]]]></description>
