Anyways, classical binge coming on, I think.
I'm not a connoiseur of the genre like Rico and Alan but I've listened to some stuff. Based on your tastes, I think you should go check these guys out:
Morton Feldman (I'm pretty sure you'll dig him, his ethereal, quasi-static music definitely influenced the whole drone/ambient genre:
VIDEO
Erkki-Sven Tüür (this Finn fella used to be in a prog band in the 80's. I think his chamber music will interest you):
VIDEO
Sergei Prokofiev (I haven't met a music enthusiast who hasn't enjoyed his 2nd piano concerto so far):
VIDEO
Gustav Mahler (he's Mahler):

I was looking into Mahler but wasn't sure which album, any suggestions? Definitely like Feldman, checking him out now.

I was going to take today off but after reading all this exercise talk I've been guilted into taking my Harvey Milk Walk later tonight as per usual.
Harvey Milk Walk = Taking a walk while listening to a Harvey Milk album loudly on the headphones.

I am listening to Sigur Ros' new album and talking to my sister on Skype about my ridiculous problems. Feels dramatic.

Trying to come up with a song title. Something short, obscure, and pretty sounding. Any ideas?

I quite enjoyed Harvey Milk's latest release, though I haven't given much of their back catalog a serious listen. Gonna change that pretty soon.

I was going to make a joke about something short that no one's ever heard of but it would be weird considering your age.

I passed 3000 posts a while back and I haven't seen a single balloon.
