i’d be quite content if the only thing on television was cartoons. late nights on the cartoon network, adult swim acts as a comfortable escape. its nice to be able to zone into something that doesn’t require much of anything except to just relax and laugh.

recently, they put together a free downloadable mixed compilation called warm and scratchy that features 14 new and exclusive tracks from bands like tv on the radio, broken social scene and the rapture.
