Skyphone - Fabula (2004)

noreply@blogger.com (insomniac) — Wed, 07 Nov 2007 17:18:00 +0000

Caught between the spacious glacial excursions of the northern Scandinavians (Sigurd Rós and Supersilent) and the infinite digital strands of microtechnological exploration occuring in Germany to the south, a new generation of Danish musicians (Under Byen, Etter Klang) is now fusing influences from both directions with fresh, creative assurance. Skyphone can be considered among the frontrunners. This is their debut album but the trio´s collective background in rock, dub and electronica has been an invaluable apprenticeship, as Skyphone combine these elements into a confident and convincingly distinctive hybrid. Fabula offers up diffident melodies conjured from acoustic guitars and analogue synths, crisply fluctuating digital percussion, feathery skeins of sampled texture and a wonderfully, almost fairytale sense of immersion. -- The Wire (UK)

Emerson Lake & Palmer (ELP) - Trilogy

After the heavily distorted bass and doomsday church organ of Emerson, Lake & Palmer's debut album, the exhilarating prog rock of epic proportions on Tarkus, and the violent removal of the sacred aura of classical tunes on Pictures at an Exhibition, Trilogy, ELP's fourth album, features the trio settling down in more crowd-pleasing pastures...

Stomu Yamashta - Go (Vinyl Rip)

noreply@blogger.com (insomniac) — Tue, 06 Nov 2007 16:58:00 +0000

Stomu Yamashta is a Japanese percussionist and keyboardist who has made a good portion of his living in the classical world, although he studied jazz drumming at Boston's Berklee School of Music. It seemed natural, back in the mid-Seventies, when prog-rock was at its height, that he collaborate with Steve Winwood (ex- Traffic, Blind Faith, Spencer Davis Group) and Michael Shrieve (ex-Santana) on an ambitious project entitled Go. Also on board (though not credited on the cover) were Return To Forever guitarist Al DiMeola, bassist Rosko Gee (ex-Can, Traffic) and Klaus Schulze, formerly of Tangerine Dream.

The result was one of the most masterful albums of the progressive rock genre, truly breaking down the barriers between the pop and avant-garde forms in a way that few bands have ever done before or since. As critic Robin Denselow observes in the liner notes to the first album, 'the result is a work that, in parts, has echoes of Weather Report, Tangerine Dream, Stockhausen, Mike Oldfield, The Pink Floyd, soul music and bossa nova, and still leaves space for Stevie Winwood and Al DiMeola to show off their talents to the full.' -- Excerpt from the NFO.

The Funny America

noreply@blogger.com (insomniac) — Wed, 09 May 2007 03:36:00 +0000

I don't know what these people were thinking when they called Sean Penn a "HollyWood Elitist" with a mockery overtone. First of all, since when becoming an elitist is such a bad thing? Where were these name calling conservative assholes when Mr. Penn was down there at New Orleans pulling people out of the water? Several media reports even made it seems like Mr. Penn was in the way of the rescue workers when in fact there weren't many around to begin with!

When this administration failed to react to the hurricane Katrina, went into war with fabricated evidence and lies and countless other shits. They are committing crimes against the Iraqis, and they are committing crimes against American people. But we rather impeach a president for getting a blow job than a president who sat there for 7 minutes right after he was told the country is under attack.

No wonder we laughed at Sean Penn for saving people.
Btw, 3 of the republican candidates said they don't believe in evolutions. HA. FUCKING IDIOTS.

Free Speech?

noreply@blogger.com (insomniac) — Tue, 08 May 2007 03:18:00 +0000

I never understood why the banning of the "N" word... It's even more surprising when guys like Paul Mooney and Russell Simmons all of sudden all seems to be getting very uncomfortable with the "N" word after Michael Richard's idiotic outburst on stage. Sure, I am not a black person, but I do have a fair share of racist words thrown at me from time to time, words like "Chink, Chinaman, chin chang chong"... shits like that. It's hateful and they make me angry, but do I want to have these words banned? NO. Why would I want that? I mean are we going to start using "C" word, "W" word or "B" word? That is just ridiculous. What about words like motherfucker, asshole, cunt, twat which either offends the people universally or half of the human race?

People don't realize that these are just words, and the problem doesn't come from the words themselves; it's the context that's the problem. It's when idiots like Michael Richards and Don Imus open their mouth without going through their brains. It's when you speak to another human being with a hateful intention. These are words that remind us the ugly side of the human nature. By referring "Nigger" as "N" word, do you think people would stop having "Nigger" appear in their head?

People are so sensitive these days and it's becoming so unhealthy and stupid. They want everything sugar coated and political correct, so nobody gets hurt. And what does that do? We breed a generation of pussies that can't take the truth that racism does exist, men and women are still not equal, the war is a lie, bees are disappearing, and Manhattan is going under the sea very soon if we don't do something about the global warming...

Lenny Bruce fought all his life for the first amendment right, and with the banning of "N" word, we take a big step backward.
