This week the NY Times Magazine (one of the best magazines in the country - well worth the seemingly exorbitant price I'm paying to have the Times delivered on Saturdays and Sundays) focuses on the state of music. There's a cover story on pop wizard Moby plus a cool essay on "outsider music" that touches on one of the woefully underrated Daniel Johnston. Also: a really good and enlightening interview with the Breeders (yes Virginia, there *is* a new album coming out soon), a piece on the future of music plus a few other articles I've yet to read.

And, on that note, I finally downloaded Morpheus yesterday. Didn't actually download any music but hopefully I'll find something worthy soon
