I tend to browse around the iTunes Music Store when I need new music but don’t want to deal with buying entire new CDs. Most of you know that I’m a big Fatboy Slim fan, so when I saw a couple of singles I don’t have showing up on some most popular lists, I had to listen. I ended up getting Psyche Rock, a remix by Fatboy Slim. Soon as I heard it, the first thing I thought of is the theme to Futurama. Sure enough, there’s a backstory that explains the connection. The theme song to Futurama was strongly inspired by the original track that Fatboy Slim remixed (Psyche Rock by Pierre Henry, if you’re wondering…. time to hit the used CD stores).

Found this via Brea Grant’s blog. It’s a good song, and the rest of the album is pretty good. You can get the album, Re-arrange Us, on Amazon.com’s MP3 store. No DRM, just plain, high quality MP3 files.
(PS. Don’t forget to watch Brea Grant on Heroes in a few weeks, and check out other books and music she likes over at Coolspotters. And, no, I’ve got no connection to her, business or otherwise. Just a fan since I saw her on Friday Night Lights.)

for one reason or another… I have collected an extreme number of odd albums and compilations. I used to just buy boatloads of CDs… so if you are looking for particular songs….let me know, I may have them. It may take me a while to find them, But I can look.

BTW, I know my post had nothing to do with the story you were telling but I have no posting ability, so I responded in here.
