Piano

Bleak Black Block is a name I used for recording ambient stuff a couple years ago. At some point I would like to do more work for this project, but we’ll see.

The relevance here is that I just dug up a couple BBB recordings that I like enough to post here.

Ok, so my title doesn’t really fit. But it’s funny right? right??

EDIT: OK.. why on earth did I feel the need to sign this post?!

Couch Woman

This woman sat there for so long her skin had literally become one with the sofa and had to be surgically removed.

480-Pound Woman Dies After Six Years On Couch

I don’t care how fat you are. If you start becoming one with the couch, it’s time to think seriously about finding something new to sit on.

George Lucas

A Farker said it best:

I hate him. I really do.

Tapegerm Loops

To all the would-be loop manglers out there, Tapegerm has just released another free loop pack.

Go ye forth and loop it up.

Awesome.

Ringo Impersonator

Lest your hearts be crushed, beware that a rogue Ringo Starr impersonator is running amok

Seriously, does this guy look anything like Ringo?

Weird.

Sugarcubes - Life’s Too Good

Album-of-the-week: 8-11-04

If you don’t know and love Bjork, you must be a filthy, retarded communist or something. But I’ll forgive you if you are unfamiliar with The Sugarcubes.

This is the first album from the band that introduced the world to Bjork, so we really should support them with reckless purchases.

Seriously, they take credit cards. You can pay for it later.

Plus, it’s really good.

Eyes Wide Shut

Suddenly this movie makes a lot more sense:

An Interpretation of Kubrick’s Eyes Wide Shut

Was Kubrick killed for telling too much about Illuminati sex-slave programming?
