Ghost in the Shell

25 June 2005

Ghost in the Shell (1996) (Japanese title: Kôkaku kidôtai), based on Masamune Shirow’s manga, was beautifully executed and I watched it again this week in anticipation of watching Ghost in the Shell 2: Innocence (2004) (Japanese title: Inosensu: Kôkaku kidôtai). Almost ten years later, Mamoru Oshii still excutes an beautifully stunning anime, taking full advantage [...]

Hoover what?

4 June 2003

[google:Hooverphonic]. Interesting name for a musical group from Belgium. Even though I had seen the name floating around on the net for a while, I had actually first heard them in Chilé through a fellow Belgian, and my first impression was that I wasn’t impressed. Then I thought no more of it…

Interesting

2 March 2003

I’ve been here since yesterday morning and Santiago is a very pleasant city. Chileans are very warm and welcoming and extremely relaxed. Last night’s cocktail after the ceremony was a lot of fun. I ended up having to switch languages quickly from conversation to conversation. I was tired enough from my flight to start even [...]

Another Fine Day…

23 January 2003

First time in a bit that I’ve posted in a while… I’ve been spending time listening to old and new things. Making small new discoveries as usual. Jazzanova is the name. And it is some of the most brilliant sound that I have heard in a long time. Surprised was I to learn that Stereolab [...]

Moz

22 October 2002

Today, I was working diligently on some projects at work today, listening to an archived Janice Long radio show on BBC featuring Moz (Oh… that’s Morrissey’s nick for those who don’t know). The pics on the BBC Web site show the 43 year old looking much older (hints of gray) and more distinguished (than I [...]

Music time

13 July 2002

As for the other two CDs, the “discovery” artists (and they both happen to be French), I bought 30 by known resident Hacienda DJ (at least before The Hacienda closed down), Laurent Garnier and Music Kills Me by « rinôçerôse ». Laurent Garnier is considered part of the “Madchester” rave movement of the late 80′s [...]

Music yet again

11 June 2002

I heard two catchy songs this evening after listening to a Garage/House music stream. Actually, I found out that the actual the name of the collaborative duo is Live Element (Gossip Records) and the two songs that I heard (Dejame Soñar and Can’t Let You Go feat. Neilla) were recorded under a different production name, [...]

CD finds

9 June 2002

One of my interesting finds in September of last year was something I will still call my “porno” CD . I was listening to a track on a streaming radio program and it happened to be one by Nick Faber called Same Girl, Different Wig. I really liked the track and wondered where it was [...]
