the way we name music (and dogs, and babies) now

If you've ever wondered... "What's up with those weird Aphex Twin track titles," my post at the new Alarm Will Sound blog "alarmists" will probably do very little to answer that question!

But, as people are always saying when you work really hard at something only to sort of quasi-fail at it: "the journey is the reward." So here's the link:

The Way We Name Music Now (OR: one percussionist's mission to uncover the true meaning of Aphex Twin Track titles).
