ellementK: (ĕll'ǝ-mǝnt-kā)
noun - A fundamental, essential, or irreducible constituent of a composite entity. Middle English, from Old French, from Latin About Eleanor Kruszewski: I'm known variously as Eleanor or Elle. My last name is like that coach from Duke - kru-shef-ski. Based in Menlo Park, CA, I work for Yahoo! in their Developer Network. The easiest description of what I do is the MBA shin kicker, handling community, marketing, commercial programs and sundry backend stuff. Disclaimer: I've done big corps, midcorps, and startups, so I overstate and oversimplify as much as anyone else. These opinions are my own, not my employer's. |
EllementK16 Jan 2006The return of the Warp Records catalogue to Yahoo! Music UnlimitedI dogfood good and plenty, but only where stuff can be made to integrate with my world. My world, as it happens, tends to include asynchronous whirrs and chips — often supplied by Warp Records, of Autechre, Aphex Twin, Boards of Canada and Plaid fame. One day they disappeared from the Yahoo! Music Unlimited catalogue - a rather abrupt reminder of all that’s entailed in a subscription music service. “A friend in the music business” said there was an issue of some sort. Meanwhile, despite owning more Warp tracks than is good for me, I had gotten hooked on sipping the newer releases from Boards of Canada and Autechre from YME, access to which was provided through my unlimited subscription. But man, once they pulled Warp, it was a little dismal for us connoisseurs of IDM, ambient, and electro. Now they’re back. Yay! So it’s time for me to support both Warp and YME and make my first purchase :-) - Campfire Headphase from Boards of Canada, though the review from Y! Music is a little off the mark. Who knew Yahoo! had music reviewers? Sign me up.
