Múm - They Make Frogs Smoke Till They Explode


I'm very tired. Profiles are probably the easiest thing for me to draw.... This song really does deserve a more interesting image... but I'm too sleepy.

Feist - Mushaboom

A friend just send me a lovely list of a lot of her favorite artists. I think tonight was my first time hearing this song...

I guess this goes with yesterday's drawing. I'm always hesitant to draw guys when I doodle, because in the past they would either end up looking like a man version of myself, my brother (who actually kind of DOES look like a man version of me...), any crushes I had, or a creepy combination of all three... awkward. Fortunately, I don't think he looks like anyone I know...

Passion Pit - Sleepyhead

This song immediately made me think of the pale green my room used to be before I painted it.

Arcade Fire - Wake Up

I heard this song on the trailer for Where the Wild Things are, and I remember liking it. Then I found it again recently and discovered it was Arcade Fire, which surprised me for some reason. None of their other songs had really held my attention so far, but I think I'll have to give them another try...

Danielson - "Did I Step on Your Trumpet?"

They said something about a parrot in the song. And I was like "hey, I like parrots". Then I was like "Hey, I also like hats..."

Zoe Keating - Tetrishead


Just stumbled upon this awesome cellist today... Also, this is turning into an art nouveau series apparently.

Dyad - Early Early in the Spring

I think one thing I've learned so far is... that some songs just can't be turned into imagery. (See the past few days drawings for examples....) However, folk songs always inspire me to do illustrative works.... Which I really think is my favorite. :)

Battles - Atlas

Right now I am quite ill and semi-delerious..... Hence the very trippy picture...

Coldplay - Life in Technicolor

I think the only thing I took from this song was... "color"... I got distracted by anatomy practice and weirdness. Then I just filtered it a million times. Multicolored barf picture! OH YEAH. Tomorrow I'm moving on to my favorite albums... [edit: ...or not]

Penguin Cafe Orchestra - Perpetuum Mobile

Once again, paying more attention to the image than the song.... (though I love this song dearly...)

Tomorrow it will have been 30 days of posts. I think after that I'll revisit some previous artists again. Maybe go through whole CDs.

Modest Mouse - Ocean Breathes Salty

I don't know if I was really paying much attention to the song at all... but it was playing in the background.

MGMT - Electric Feel


I don't really like MGMT too much (I don't dislike them... it's complicated) ... but I couldn't think of who else to do tonight. And I thought maybe drawing to a song I didn't love might be an ok idea. Instead I drew something I didn't really like that much as well....
