Hello from wonderful Seoul, South Korea and guess what? I still have a whole new month worth of music for you. Even being half a world away won’t stop me from sharing our latest additions. It’s surreal to be writing a blog post in Korea, planning and scheduling it all to publish at a suitable time for both sides of the world. It’s not as easy as everyone thinks, that’s for sure.
And hello again from Ireland. We got so caught up in being tourists in the beautiful Republic of South Korea that we never got the chance to publish September’s additions to the playlist. However, I am here now to rectify this whole situation and offer you a double helping of additions for both August and September.
This month can be summed up in one simple lesson: Silence is golden….but duct tape is silver (and packing tape is brown, in case you don’t have duct tape handy). Sometimes the ideal is not possible but there’s always a secondary method to achieve the same goal. What you do with that information is entirely up to you though. Just remember, sometimes the easiest way isn’t the direct approach either. I mean, you could duct tape someone’s mouth closed or, and this is purely hypothetical, you could duct tape someone to the ceiling. For legal reasons, this is purely hypothetical and I do not condone duct taping people to ceilings. If anyone has any hypothetical results to this hypothetical situation (e.g how much duct tape is required to bear the weight of a person), hit me up.
Anywhooo, as per usual, I’m including the link to our year so far playlist and the playlist for both August and September as well. Okaaaaaay let’s go.
