If I were to envision myself as Hurley from Lost , having recently suffered a catastrophic event and finding myself on a deserted island with an mp3 player, what music would I listen to? Similar to Hurley's situation in that I can't get any new music but different because my batteries will never run out, what music will comprise this final playlist? I have exactly 1000 minutes of music for all of eternity, or until death. This vision takes the liberty to assume there is a fair amount of leisure time to sit on my ass not worrying [...]

Kekya Music #32 avec Soobrosa . Le hasard fait bien les choses, dans le dernier Kekya Music mous avions un hongrois et en voici un nouveau ! Voici donc un mix en deux parties de Soobrosa, très "mainstream" aux accents electro-tech-house et très Soulwaxienne dans la sélection.

I've barely written about the festival that I'm volunteering at. I've been busy and I owe a lot of other posts to various bands but with filling in for Jess and it being the exact day that the music portion of the festival begins it's perfect timing. First off I'll be volunteering at the Supermarket venue, so if you're there and you see an Asian volunteer, you can yell at Allan! if you'd like. (lol) First let's take a look at the bands playing at my venue (they're getting coverage good or bad!). Thursday: [...]

It would be appropriate to say that Bran Van 3000 have been one of the most subtly successful groups of the past few years. Their songs have been displayed in a countless number of movies, television shows, and assorted adverts - yet they still have not achieved a status of widespread recognition based on their namesake alone. Whether it was their catchy "Go Shopping" over the faint static of a radio in the hit Mexican film "Y tu Mamá También", the subtle ode to their breakthrough "Drinking in L.A." in the cult "Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy", or [...]

C'est un de ces retours que personne n'attendait, Bran Van 3000 reviennent quelques 6 ans après leur album "Discosis" sorti peu avant la faillite du label Grand Royal et presque 10 ans après le tube qui les a fait connaître, le toujours enivrant "Drinkin in L.A." . Ils nous servent aujourd'hui un troisième disque sans hit single apparent mais toujours riche en grooves indolents, qu'ils puisent dans le hip hop, le rock ou le reggae, quand il ne samplent pas les Spinners, Donna Summer [...]
Pictures courtesy of Last Nights Party. I stumbled across a song by Farah Holly and couldn't find anymore of it anywhere. I found her myspace page that has some songs on it. Im digging it, it sounds kind of like Yaz / early Eurythmics with a good serving of gothic Italo disco, new wave goodness and a dash of Jim Morrison for good measure. Am I sounding like a wank?

Morgan Hagar kmmerte sich in einer krzlich produzierten Serie um die Insignien unserer Kaufkultur. Zu riesigen Einkaufszentren gehren zu gross geratene Einkaufswagen. Doch falsch gedacht, wer da Reichtum denkt, auch wenn diese Dinger vom berfluss zu knden scheinen. Wo sie rumstehen, ist nicht alles mehr so richtig gut. Sie werden von denen stehengelassen, die es sich nicht mehr leisten knnen, mit ihnen zum verchromten Jeep zu scheppern. Der Fotojournalist Hagar ist ausgezogen, in Californien (vor allem LA) die Konflikte des menschlichen Miteinanders zu dokumentieren. Eindrcklich geht er fr diese Aufgabe zur Sache. Foto [...]

Guns N' Roses "Welcome To The Jungle" (Demo) buy appetite / mp3s Nominally, this classic could be about the experience of any newcomer to the big bad evil city. But the White Trash Wins Lotto tale of Hoosier expat Wm. Bailey has turned into such a rock 'n' roll archetype that it's hard to divorce GNR's first hit from the myth around his bussing it out to Los Angeles and facing the culture shock/toughening-up. (I believe that's the open of Act I, yeah?) Anyway, speaking of archetypes, [...]
Drinking in L.A. - Bran Van 3000 Anyone else remember Bran Van 3000 ? And this song? I first heard it while I was actually in L.A., which is...well, vaguely interesting. I wasn't drinking though, so I guess it's not that interesting. Bran Van was from Montreal and play that sort of alt-electronica that has been a pretty popular sounds coming out of French-Canadia lately. In short, yet another band that might have ended up as more than a "one hit wonder" if they had shown up 7 or 8 [...]

I was flipping through some old DC romance comics when I stumbled across this page from Young Love #114 (February-March, 1975): The title, “There Is No Answerâ€, suggests a fragment of a Zen kÅan as posited by Jean-Paul Sartre. Come to think of it, that’s a pretty accurate summation of a 13 year old girl’s take on love. “Like, omigod, there’s know way of knowing if Tyler likes me, and, like merely asking the question fills me with existential dread and stuff! I think I’ll lash [...]

Ho - drei ereignisreiche Wochen sind vorbei. Viel Arbeit und Urlaub. Jetzt geht es hier wieder etwas regelmssiger zu. Die Herbstsaison will ich mit Christiane Zschommler erffnen. Ihre wunderbaren Photos sind so eigenwillig wie originell. Zum Beispiel Fotos mit Asphaltspiegelungen. Tolle Idee und phantastische Umsetzung. Da kann man sich fast auf die regenreichste Zeit des Jahres freuen. *g* - Foto Christiane Zschommler - Old Compton Street (Central London and SOHO) // view the gallery . Musik Der Sommer gibt [...]
