twink: axel f & ice cream truckin'.

TWINK is a word with many meanings-- a wink, an abbreviation for twinkle, "gay slang for a cute young thing with nothing upstairs", and of course...a Boston musician with a huge collection of toy pianos.

I discovered his tunes a while ago thanks to 3Hive. In a conversation a few days ago, I sent the link to his website to a friend, to which he replied, "I thought you were sending me gay porn for a second." Well, this music is significantly better than porn. Also, it's cute. And porn is not cute. Got it? Good.

So Twink has a new cover of Harold Faltermeyer tune "Axel F" (aka the theme to Beverly Hills Cop). I have heard plenty of covers of this song, but it doesn't get any better than a toy piano rendition. Also, Twink released an album called Ice Cream Truckin' this past April. The theme of the album is "music for modern ice cream trucks". I can not think of any good reason why I don't already own this album, other than the fact that I lack a dozen puppies to frolic through a field with while I bump this on my iPod and devour a pint of Ben & Jerry's. Now that would definitely be better than porn. Hands down.
