Blue Lava Alert
Yeah I thought the same! Apparently I am just too cynical when it comes to blue lava!

Open a can and put it in pot
Wow, that's rough, Ghidorah. I'm sorry to hear that.

The red fox at 5:00 blew me away. So gorgeous.

Data from "Star Trek" has a rip on the Hammond B3 organ
Something about the resolution and frame rate, and the tune itself.... it's perfect.

Guy in the back left is my fave too!

It's ALMOST AS IF they should rebrand Star Trek so that it's about a crew of elite corporate executives who are reviewing the masters of forthcoming albums from the bridge of their spaceship.

Mouth Dreams: 2020 Gives Back
I have been losing it since I hit play. I just got to the Wario "waaaah" bit and I'm dying. I think this might be the best NeilCic yet?

It's also got a lot in common with Steve Reich and John Adams.
Thanks for the post, hippybear - a great reminder to revisit this great album. I'm listening to it now! Still a total original 14 years later.

I was in my first year of music school when this came out. I was already a big fan of both Metheny and long-form compositions; so when one of my profs tipped me off to this record, 19-year-old me naturally went pretty gaga for it. Managed to catch him while on a trip to Vancouver and hear the front-to-back experience that… [more]

such a shame
Joining in the Spirit of Eden praise. One of the finest albums of the rock era.

Add one to that. That album hit me out of nowhere and I've still yet to hear anything like it.

Very sad to hear this news but I appreciate it being shared.

Shocking News: Rage Yoga Invented by Canadian
Good lord.

Of course they do this at Dickens'. Just the worst pub.

Brought up this thread at a gig I was playing at tonight, which consisted of an all-white band playing East-coast Canadian folk music (incidentally, during the gig an Irish-Catholic visitor took offense to one of the songs we played, identifying it as "an anthem of the rebellion", but I digress).

The only response I received from the rest of the band re: rage yoga was this:
"Some people are offended too easily."… [more]

Jurrassic Park Theme Slowed Down 1,000%
Can't say it's quite as good as Justin Bieber slowed down 800% though.

Subterranean Time Warp Blues
Doing a tasteful, creative mashup allows the opportunity to listen to artists such as Bob Dylan in a context that is new and exciting (i.e. a dancefloor). I think it is important not to presume that the mashup artist is making any claim to personal glory. Obviously, writing an original song and creating a mashup of a song are two completely different feats of incomparable measure, but that's no reason for someone not to share something cool that they came up with. Creativity is creativity; Bob's… [more]
