Tyger, Tyger, Burning Bright…

This entry was published at least two years ago (originally posted on August 8, 2005). Since that time the information may have become outdated or my beliefs may have changed (in general, assume a more open and liberal current viewpoint). A fuller disclaimer is available.

A few weeks ago, Prairie had a Monday off and was able to come out to the Vogue‘s Sunday Fetish night with me. While we were there, we heard a very nice track that caught our ear, with a slow, driving tempo, pulsing drums, and using William Blake’s The Tyger as its lyrics.

I went to ask DJ Eternal Darkness who the artist was, Googled it when I got home…and got nothing. No hits at all. When I asked Doug about it the next week, he told me that he’d gotten it straight from the artist.

I was pleasantly surprised, then, to notice that in his weekly playlists for this past week, Doug had included a link to download the song! A very little bit of web sleuthing (i.e., taking the filename out of the URL to go straight to the home directory) led me to Julie Rowlette’s site, where in addition to The Tiger, she has three other (more standard house style) tracks available to download on her music page.

The Tiger is by far my favorite, but the others certainly aren’t bad at all, and Julie’s got a gorgeous voice. Go give her a listen!
