mp3 Arctic: Music from Canada's Northwest Territories, Metric video, SXSW

Torrents, Chef to quit South Park, more

* Arctic

Marcus Martin is the brains behind Arctic. Drawing from his

childhood experiences in the arctic region of Canada's Northwest

Territories, his haunting music transcends ordinary folk/rock with

layers of beautiful acoustic guitar, subtle synthesized sounds,

and sublime pedal effects.

arctic mp3 Arctic - Some One Turning

arctic mp3 Arctic - Launching Pad

* metric mp3 Metric - Poster of a Girl (video)

Some videos just perfectly capture the vibe of a song. This is one

such example. Plus you get to see Emily in her skivvies.

* Check out SXSW Torrents for all their MP3s [via]

713 MP3s (part 1) | 229 MP3s (part 2)

Btw, for those of you using BitTorrent, I highly recommend

Azureus, which has revolutionized my experience with torrents. It

is probably the best torrent front-end becuase it is open-source

and highly customizable. For me, it brings back the warm fuzzy

days of Napster and eDonkey/Overnet.

* Isaac Hayes to quit "South Park", citing religious intolerance

Interestingly, Hayes is a devout Scientologist. I had no idea.
