January 15th, 2012 > odd pop, rock 'n' roll

Pop Rocks 25

odd pop music that was created between 1967 and 2004 at the Sandoz Labs by fusing sugar, lactose, corn syrup, lysergide and pressurized carbon dioxide. it differs from typical pop music in that it creates a fizzy reaction when it dissolves in one’s mind.

My Sister’s Wedding pt.2

part 2 of a 3 part series of mainly big band jazz from the 20′s to the 60′s. initially these mixes were made for my sister’s wedding (as the title gives away) but I have found that music this good doesn’t always need a ceremony to shine.
