To those of you who are monitoring the debacle on Capitol Hill today as well as the punditpalooza on television, calculating how much the final agreement is going to hurt the American people, I dedicate this new offering on Mixcloud to you.
"Music For Governments To Default By" on Mixcloud
I started working on this mix earlier last week when the Boehner bill started running into trouble from the Tea Party Republicans. I wasn't sure how I wanted the finished product to sound, so basically I just sat back in my chair, stared at the music collection on my shelf (I know, I'm old-school - still haven't transitioned fully to MP3s yet), and let the music do the talking with only a small amount of editorial comment.
You might consider playing this music as background for either the pundit debates or for the C-SPAN feeds, but no matter how you listen to this cloudcast, I hope you enjoy it.
