Okay....i was bored....*wink*....Found this great site with tons of experimental games that are constantly being developed..A ton of great stuff here. I tried playing this game "Tower of Goo" where you have to build a gooey tower higher and higher without toppling over...Great idea about this experimental gameplay project, and it gained a lot of exposure from the gamers and people in the game industry. Rules for the games involved in this project is: each game must be made in less than 7 days each game must be made by one person, including all art, sound, [...]

WOOHOO!! ipod video has just been released by Apple. This latest installment of the excessively popular ipod family now plays videos. The 30GB and 60GB models loads up to 15,000 songs, full-color album art and up to 25,000 photos. It also supports up to 150 hours of video with its 2.5-inch color LCD display. Meaning you could catch your favourite TV shows on the ipod. It connects out through an option TV-out cable (which I imagine [...]

here's a little poem i wrote while listening to Andain - Beautiful Things(Gabriel & Dresden Remix). Timeless Memories So many beautiful things, I don't want to forget, counting on the many blessings, and wonderful people I’ve met. Stories from yesterday, remain as forever moments, Tales from a bygone day, remain as precious presents, Reminiscing in the past, for that I have done, Yet time passes too fast, and that I’ve missed the fun. The seasons [...]

I'm back!!.....zzzzzz...... so sleepy....been cramming in few hours of study for the past few days...darn, my finals are just around the corner....Anyways, today's track is a beautiful classical piece, so should take off most of the stress. Anna Chepikova, a Russian born pianist teaches & plays in virtually any style from classical Masterpieces by Bach, Mozart, Debussy, Chopin, Tchaikovsky to contemporary jazz, Christian & pop. This concert pianist and music teacher is extremely versatile in all the different styles of music she plays. Incredibly diverse, elegant, classy, and jazzy at times. The piano solo here is a classic [...]

Whoa!! Finally managed to get the OST for "The Myth". The CD was just released for about a week and was practically sold out in the first two record stores i went to(Fantasy & Speedy Video). The next batch would only arrive on Thursday, and that's not guaranteed. Heck, i went to Tower Records and finally found it there! It was the last copy on the cd shelf!! Managed to listen to the Chinese version of "Endless Love". Its called "Endless Love II". Great vocals by Sun Nan and Han Hong in this track but i don't really like the [...]

I find the following article extremely amusing: You see, a girl is just like a book . In fact the lead up to all relationships can be analysed based on this side by side comparison. Face it - every book is judged by its cover . If the book cover looks nice and new, you would probably be tempted to walk over and pick it up. A book cover that is badly designed shows that the author didn't really make an effort. [...]

Matthew Herbert, a British DJ and producer of modern house who is also known as Radio Boy, Wishmountain, and Doctor Rockit, released "Leave Me Now" in 2001, and is the first single to bereleased from the forthcoming album "Bodily Functions", the long-awaited follow-up to 1998's "Around the house". His music often incorporates organic sounds and samples of various noises from everyday life. This track features extremely light, soulfull and sublime house beats combined with a late night twist to the melody. Mainly jazz, but set in a house framework, is what that sets this [...]

"tripped out weirdness with a great beat" - Score, Baby! "an alcohol-induced fantasy album perfect for cocktail party-turned-orgy" - Supersphere "a retro-futurist space odyssey" - Sleazenation (#8) This is another one of my favourite tracks from one of my favourite electronic music groups of all time. What would the titles "Zero-Gravity Miniskirt" and "Inter-Sexual Overdrive" induce thoughts of? WIERD STUFF, ISN'T IT? Seksu Roba's music is seemingly digital and extremely [...]

Great lounge music here by underground Japanese duo Neutrino, Atsuhiro Murakami and Hideki Kuroda, similiar to the likes of DJ Krush, and Seksu Roba. Perfect track for chilling out in a lounge after a wild night of psychadelic trance out at many of Tokyo's clubs. Neutrino's music is simple yet elegant, minimal and inspires feelings that are predominantly neutral. Repetitive at times, but not annoyingly so, with chilly-chill hip-hop beats and gentle analog quasi-melodies. No vocals used, but Murakami and Kuroda make good use of the vocal samples. Extremely infectious balance of late night downtempo grooves and hip hop beats [...]

YES!! I'm finally done with my trials!! *Breaths* Hope that i pass this time...=) Presenting a Swiss music project based in Zurich led by the idea to to reach the listener directly via their webpage. I like their pioneering idea of spreading their music out to people on their page. Great beginning to this project cuz they're also offering FREE and complete promo copies of their tracks and selling some of their other tracks. This ambient track, "Voyage" is a very beautiful and relaxing track, mixing elements of nu-jazz and downtempo. Perfect, classic and [...]

Great track here by Shulman. A music project that produces great psybient and electronic music. The duo’s debut album, "soundscapes and modern tales", released in february 2002 by the leading label shaffel records, received excellent reviews and world-wide acclaim. The beginning of the track was this speech about the recovery of a UFO and aliens by the British Intelligence. Great use of the vox synth to make it sound as if there were aliens speaking. Very hypnotic and chilling atmosphere to this track. Unique and unlike anything that I've heard before. [...]

Just woke up from bed and i'm feeling a bit drowsy....zzzzzzzzzz......heck , i really should be studying for my trials when i'm doing this.... Anywase, here's a new Psy trance project from France that i've listened to recently. It's called Ectoplasm. Sounds like a clashed-up mix of Skazi and Hallucinogen minus the vocal synths. Hyperactive appreggiation, stunning work on the kicks, distorted acid basslines fuse together to create a great psychedelic atmosphere. Probably good enough to make anyone start hallucinating without taking any LSD. Great job on the tracks, especially "Fat Hairs". For those who [...]

Utada Hikaru's new single "Be My Last" is released today! I'm only getting my copy sometime soon in October cuz my sis friend is not yet back from japan. So i guess i just have to be kept waiting for the moment. The song is the themesong for the Japanese motion picture ??? ( Haru no Yuki , Official English translation - Snowy Love Fallin' in Spring) For you guys that haven't heard about her, Utada Hikaru is a popular Japanese artist. Her hit single "First Love", sold [...]
