Past Lessons, Future Theories
Please, do yourself a favour and rent the
Japanese version of Shall We Dance? before
Richard Gere,
Jennifer Lopez and
Susan Sarandon ruin it in the forthcoming
American version. I just have a bad feeling they're going to wreck a good movie.
I recommend downloading the new
Scumfrog remix of
Lucy Woodward's Blindsided. As fun, big room, vocal house goes, this is really good. It's free too.

I went to the
Two Towers movie a few days ago at the local cheap theater. It was good, long, boring and meandering.
The first half was pretty dull, the second was quite exciting.
Gollum was good, as many people told me months ago. The effects were very good.
Gandalf fighting that fire thing at the beginning was great. I love the Eye of Mordor.
Unfortunately, there are so many plots it's hard to know why I should care about anybody but Frodo. That's why the books are crap too.
The best actors were
Frodo and
Theoden.
The dialogue is really laughable sometimes. Sentence fragments backwards speak in we must! Or, terse sentences that
Hemingway wouldn't even use. And hailing from the department of the obvious -- Legolas the Elf and Samwise Gamgee. To quote Hom
er Simpson, "What are you, the narrator?"
I had my first radio show on air at
CFBU in almost one year. It felt pretty good to have my kind of music being broadcast over the airwaves. I didn't do any heavy mixing. I cheated, and played Grooverider: Fabriclive 06, and my own latest mix cd. Here's the tracks:
Grooverider - Fabric Live 06 (Fabric (London))
Peshay Featuring Co-Ordinate - You Got Me Burning
Ed Rush, Optical & Fierce - Alien Girl
Danny C - The Mexican
Mampi Swift - Rebirth
Special Forces - What I Need
Total Science - Hotspot (Digital Remix) remix by Digital
Twisted Individual - Bitch Muzzle
Ed Rush - Subway
Origin Unknown - Truly One
DJ SS - The Lighter (S-Files VIP Mix)
Bad Company - The Pulse
and then my latest mix cd:
Slacker - A Million Dreams
Aquilia - Voodoo (Medway mix)
Chicken Lips - Is That You Or Me? (Sasha's Extra mix)
Tom Mangan - Chutney (Moonface mix)
Dark Suite - Dark Suite Piano (Dr. Kucho Weekend mix)
Buds Not Bombs - Deleido (Infusion mix)
Gus Gus - David (Medicine8 mix)
Plump DJs - Donna Kebab
Dot Allison - We're Only Science (Slam mix)
UR - Transition
Cuba Computers - Haunting Me (Chus and Ceballos Iberican Vocal mix)
Guy Gerber Presents A.D.D. - Let Me In
Spincycle - Due Process
Aaliyah - Rock Da Boat (M2 mix)
MAS Collective - In My Mind
Thomas Bangalter - Outrage
And that's all of it, at least from 6:50 - 9 p.m. Next week I'll probably try some turntable mixing. Could be brutal, I haven't done it in a long while.
