Argot Navis

I recently had the idea to update my iPod with several songs from quite a lot of artists, rather than whole albums from relatively few artists (these are really the only options you have when your iPod is a beefy 2ish GB). I find that this keeps me more entertained on the way to work, and it also allows me to include artists who otherwise might not have made the cut. Not that those are bad bands, but one has to make some tough choices.

The point of all of this, though, is that this also allowed for the inclusion of some early Nine Inch Nails. You see, when listening to Nine Inch Nails on the Green Line, the loud screeches from the wheels of the remarkable Breda Type 8s actually sound like parts of the song! It’s beautiful. Of course, this calls for further research.
