Seems i'm on a music video kick...

A couple more that I consider to be very good:

Favorite Albums of All Time: Telefon Tel Aviv - Map Of What Is Effortless.

This electronic duo quickly became one of my favorites ever since discovering this album. Sadly one half of the duo passed away last year. I'm afraid this marks the end of TTV, but we will always have the music they've created. Check it out, it's beautiful.

Favorite Track: "I Lied"

Favorite Albums of All Time: UNKLE - Never, Never, Land

I think most people will cite the first UNKLE album "Psyence Fiction" as their favorite, but i'm going to have to give "Never, Never Land" the edge because to me it a more complete album as a whole. The entire record flows so seamlessly together, there's definitely a story, a plot line, a beginning, and an end. Wonderful beats and melodies, definitely a UK sound, which is a great thing in my opinion. Check out James Lavelle's DJ mixes if you dig this album.


Favorite track: "In A State"

Desperate Times call for Desperate Measures.

So i've been fucked in the ass by the government, i'm not getting unemployment, I don't have enough freelance projects to get by and I have a closet-full of MANICproject cd's. Well, i'm offering to sell them for $5 a pop. If you don't have one yet, please give it a chance, it's barely more than the cost of a mocha grande. You can sample it on itunes (link below the cover art). If you dig it, let me know and i'll hand-deliver or mail you the cd, hell, i'll even sign it. Also, please check out my Flickr link (to the right). If you like any of the photos please let me know, I can print it pretty much whatever size you want it, we can talk about framing options, whatever... it can be a complete custom piece. Anyway, i'm venting, i'm desperate, this is a shitty time to try to make is as a creative in a creative industry where people are fighting like dogs over projects and are low-balling one another. I hope 2010 is a better year than 2009, because frankly, it fucking sucked. Thanks for listening.

Favorite Albums of All Time: Boards of Canada - The Campfire Headphase

Put this on when you go to bed, or when you're in bed reading, or when you're in bed, but you can't fall asleep. This album will take you places, it will put you in a certain type of, well, headphase...


Favorite Track: Slow This Bird Down.

Underworld Live: Everything, Everything

One of my favorite live cd/dvd of all time. One of the best electronic dance groups of all time. Check it out if you haven't yet. You don't need to do drugs, just check out the visuals on this dvd, I suppose they would be THAT MUCH more amazing on drugs...

Favorite Albums of All Time: Apparat-Walls

This is some of the most melodic and emotional electronic music i've heard. This album never gets old for me.


Favorite track: "Arcadia"

Fever Ray

The girl's got vision. FR released her self-titled album this year and it's one of the most unique and intriguing pieces of music i've heard in a long time. Check out her site filled with oddly fascinating videos, news, and, of course, music.
