VOTD: LA Wildfire Time Lapse from Elysian Park

It has nearly been a month since the outbreak of the massive fire in Los Angeles. Here is a rather interesting time lapse capture of the smoke and flames as seen from Elysian Park, which is somewhat reminiscent of Koyaanisqatsi or Baraka.



Speaking of fire...
We will set the dancefloor on ablaze this evening at Boardner's (the home of Moscow, Bar Sinister) for RevellShok's FREE FRIDAYS as part of ROCK N ROLL Fridays!

Darren Revell and I spin an eclectic mix of alternative music from Electro to Rock, Triphop to Industrial, Disco to Cabaret, Soul to Dubstep and exhilarating songs from other genres too.

We are giving away pairs of tickets to see Psychedelic Furs & Happy Mondays tomorrow at The House Of Blues Anaheim! Be prepared for some games to win these!

Trailer of The Day: The Lovely Bones (Peter Jackson)

While you may or may not be a fan of Peter Jackson, a fan of the two-season series, "Dead Like Me" or the actors, Mark Wahlberg, Stanley Tucci, Susan Sarandon, Rachel Weisz, the visuals for the following film spark my interest and perhaps yours as well.

The story, written by Alice Sebold (raised in Philadelphia suburbs), is about a girl who is murdered and in her afterlife, watches over her family and killer.



While the film was initially set for a December 11th release, it will be nationwide for the 10th of January 2010. That date sounds like the far future... Did you ever see or read 2010, the 2001 sequel?

The Lovely Bones on IMDB
Alice Sebold on Wikipedia

There is another adaptation of Alice's story to film, Anghel sa lupa, one from the Philippines, and it is available on Netflix and Amazon.

This is a quick reminder about Friday and it being FREE FRIDAYS @ Boardners brought to you by RevellShok.

VOTD: Peter Fox, who? Peter Fox you!

VIDEOS OF THE DAY

During my sessions yesterday, Mark Miller, the Steel Guitarists that David brought to the studio, showed us the following videos. I was impressed with the first one... the second one might even be better!!!

Peter Fox is a German artist who combines many styles.
Please check the amazingly synchronized drum core at the end of the 1st video! I am SERIOUS here.... make sure to watch both videos... at least enough to get the idea... dark powerful orchestral strokes, marching and groovy drums, moving bass and excellently crafted videos with snazzy tunes!


Reminder: check the amazingly synchronized drum core at the end of the video!

VOTD: Birds on Wires photo becomes MUSIC

Jarbas Agnelli saw the following photo of birds on wires in a newspaper. He cut out the picture and created a song using the birds as notes. The video featured is what transpired.

"Reading a newspaper, I saw a picture of birds on the electric wires. I cut out the photo and decided to make a song, using the exact location of the birds as notes (no Photoshop edit). I knew it wasn't the most original idea in the universe. I was just curious to hear what melody the birds were creating."

I just saw the film, 9, and it was a 4!

I have just arrived home from my walk from The Arclight Cinemas, where I saw the midnight screening of 9, the new Tim Burton film. I have been excited to see this film since last year, when I first learned about it. It was also on my list of films I have wanted to see in 2009.

I give 9 a 4 or perhaps a 4.5 as a whole. The visuals were certainly worthy of a 9 or even 10, however the story lacks in so many ways that I will NOT go into as I do not want to tell the story. The voice acting was a celebrity cast, which I tend to not really care about either way. Was it because I have seen this story before in other places? Is it because the short story upon which the film is based is richer? Is it because I saw UP yesterday and that film is now in my top films I have ever seen? Could be.

I did enjoy nods to other films, the visuals and such and even though I was not so moved by this film, perhaps you will be and it certainly has fantastic visual and audio effects making it a film you can enjoy in the theatre.
