As sort of an old-fashioned hip-hop fan, I’ve never really latched onto the notion of the internet buzz for an emcee.

Every November I get on some sort of musical kick. A couple years ago I was all about Death Cab for Cutie. Last year Elliott Smith provided my soundtrack for the month. And this year it's jazz.
Of course, for the last three years I've also been doing that whole National Novel Writing Month project. That means I'm pretty much chained to my keyboard for the entire month. And since I'm being mono in my activity, I tend to be mono in my music as well. There's a possibility that I've got issues with focusing, and since I'm applying focus in one aspect of my life, it carries over into others. But that's pure conjecture.
Anyway, I basically stumbled onto jazz this month. I'd actually sorted out all of my instrumental albums into groups of five (my player's capacity), and had intended to run through a group a day and then cycle though again as necessary. I had themes like "Wu-Tang", "Classic Albums" and "Jay Dilla".
