+ About me: 
Hello world, I’m sort of a guy interested in lots of subjects, and unfortunately, I’m no good in mastering any of which. So don’t you worry that you would read anything too serious here - even though I’m not of a lighthearted nature - ‘cause they are way beyond my comprehension and imagination!! ;)

For my artwork, visit my blog http://aloftofmyown.blogspot.com

&lt;p&gt;I’m still working on a few more images, for heavy metal, indie rock, and even rock &amp; roll - I did a couple of sketches and I think the final version will be much fun.

At present, 8tracks.com only allows you to follow members and favor tracks in mixes, but how about mix itself?? It&amp;rsquo;s really stupid of me, but I just realize you can actually &amp;ldquo;bookmark&amp;rdquo; a mix by adding a certain track to your favorite, then you can go back to your favorite list and will see something like&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;a class="zem_slink" href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Maxwell%27s_Silver_Hammer" title="Maxwell's Silver Hammer" rel="wikipedia" target="_blank"&gt;Maxwell&amp;rsquo;s Silver Hammer&lt;/a&gt; The Beatles&lt;/b&gt; &lt;br/&gt;Album: &lt;b&gt;The Beatles&lt;/b&gt; Download   &lt;br/&gt;&lt;a target="_blank" href="http://8tracks.com/traciechkn/am-dm-e-am-dm-e"&gt;&lt;u&gt;From mix: Am Dm E Am Dm E&lt;/u&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;From now, I finally can find the original mix - &lt;i&gt;&lt;a target="_blank" href="http://8tracks.com/traciechkn/am-dm-e-am-dm-e"&gt;&lt;u&gt;Am Dm E Am Dm E&lt;/u&gt;&lt;/a&gt; &lt;/i&gt;- which features Maxwell&amp;rsquo;s Silver Hammer of Beatles, and so can you!! :P&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;So this is my very first playlist which I call &amp;ldquo;&lt;a target="_blank" href="http://8tracks.com/mitrm/life-is-hard-really"&gt;&lt;b&gt;life is hard, really&lt;/b&gt;.&lt;/a&gt;&amp;rdquo; The service &lt;b&gt;&lt;a target="_blank" href="http://8tracks.com"&gt;8tracks&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/b&gt; offers makes more sense to me, I mean, you can Actually listen to the whole song without this nasty 30 seconds limitatio, at least when you&amp;rsquo;re listening to others&amp;rsquo; playlist. And I also created a new avatar based on the default avatar of &lt;b&gt;&lt;a target="_blank" href="http://8tracks.com"&gt;8tracks&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/b&gt;. Too bad I&amp;rsquo;m not a blondie or a cowboy. Honestly the only thing I have in common with that avatar is I have a nose, a pair of eyes, and a head as well. And I also love print shirt!! :P&lt;/p&gt;
