Start Your #MuggleMusicMonday Right with JoCo

This #MuggleMusicMonday we’re having a listen to the rightly self-proclaimed Internet Phenomenon, Jonathan Coulton (more typically referred to as JoCo by fans). JoCo is most well-known for his particularly geeky music and his “Thing A Week” project. For this project, he decided to create a song a week for a full year. The resulting 52 tracks were released in 4 parts and consist of “original songs, some covers, one mash-up, and a few songs based largely or entirely on sampled or synthesized vocals.”

I feel like I must have heard some Jonathan Coulton in the past, but was only truly introduced to his music this weekend by a friend. I have been rocking out to JoCo ever since and can’t stop thinking that ‘Code Monkey’ (probably his most popular song) should be officially deemed the theme song of the office I work in. Then again, that can likely be said of all offices…

In any case, you can learn more about Jonathan Coulton by flitting around the JoCopedia, his own personal Wiki site, or his regular website.

Don’t forget to follow us on Blip.fm and Twitter for links to listen to his music throughout the day!
