Someone Still Loves You Boris Yeltsin. That's what I'm listening to since it's snowing.

The snow is light, fluffy, and everywhere right now, which means it's time to listen to my favorite snow music (which in many cases is also my favorite summer music, weird huh?)

The next few days of snow will lead me to listen to:

Radiohead - In Rainbows
Bon Iver- For Emma, Forever Ago
Someone Still Loves You Boris Yeltsin - Broom
Beach House - Teen Dream (this one's new, but great)

TOM VEK!!! WHERE ARE YOU?

Four and a half years ago Tom Vernon-Kell realeased the cd "We Have Sound" under the name Tom Vek.

(Right: Tom Vek's hand signal "TV")

I was a Junior in high school when it came out and I vividly recall seeing Tom's music video for the first single "C-C (You Set the Fire in Me)" on the late great International Music Feed. I bought the disc the very next time I entered a Best Buy, and soon I was grooving along to Tom's eclectic tunes.

After a few months, Tom Vek showed up less and less on my iPod. But now, almost half a decade later, I decided to take a trip back to high school by play We Have Sound. I quickly search his name into my Google task bar search box, ready to find out the name(s) his newest cd(s).

Unfortunately--after visiting his Wikipedia page, official website, and myspace page--I found that he hasn't recorded any new music since 2005. His website says, I assume as a joke, "Tom continues to work on the follow up to 2005 debut 'We Have Sound'" If this is true, then this cd will be the most baller shit ever!

So Tom Vek, if you read this, please make new music. You're awesome. (also, if you read this, you'll be the first person to read my blog!)
