We used to review mp3s, but we dont do that anymore.

Beirut - Lon Gisland E.P. - mp3 review

December 20th, 2006 r8e8rcom

I woke up to some really strange dreams this morning.  I usually have a hard time remembering my dreams, but this morning I had several of those short mini-dreams that seem like they last an eternity.  One in which I had a child that was born with the ability to speak at birth.  She would explain in detail what it was like to be baby and experience the world with new eyes.  She could also read Casey’s mind, and she would tell me what it was like for Casey growing up.  In the dream I watched her grow, it felt like years had gone by, but I woke to find that the entire dream spanned only the amount of time between alarms on my clock when I hit the snooze button.

gonna skip the beirut background cuz I sent some of his shit out already.  Anyway, these tracks are from his new EP ‘Lon Gisland E.P.’  I still think this kid is hit or miss, but I really like the first two tracks.  The third is different version of a song on his debut release.
