Music: Sufjan Stevens

I very much like the music of Sufjan Stevens and I have for a long time. I recommend him. Thanks to Jason (of whom I enjoy reading his large repertoire of writings and musings) I learned today that Sufjan rather suddenly and unexpectedly released a new album titled "All Delighted People EP." There are some brilliant things going on here. Lots of great transitions, key changes, and even time scale changes. Usually when people try doing all of it together it blows up on them. But it seems to me that Sufjan has pulled it off very well.

Something about Sujfan's music is extremely transcending. Find a quiet corner where you can daydream and listen to an album of his.
