Simon Pèrin — Eternity

Richard Malot — Quiet

I love Anthony Gormley-almost everything he creates I connect to.

His latest work even more so (probably because it looks so amazingly TRON-like).

I mean really, what’s not to love ?

On the subject of things that it’s hard not to love, check out man of the moment Onra’s edit of Al B Sure’s  ‘Night and Day’.

I played this out last night at my pal Harris’ label party. and it sounded HEAVY.

It’s available to download por nada from Onra’s Bandcamp. (get some)

After spending the first few months of owning a iphone buying 2 games a week-I haven’t been tempted by anything for ages.

Well, until I saw this anyway.

Love this guy.

So much of what he has to say (especially the reasons for making music) really resonate with me.

And damn he’s got a back catalogue/portfolio that anyone would be proud of.

Worth an hour of your time for sure.

People sometimes ask what is behind the name Ulysses 82.

First off, those people probably need to brush up on their french-japanese animation.

The rest of it, the more esoteric elements, are summed up in the first two paragraphs of this fantastic piece ‘You Can’t Stop Us Now: Birth of Planet Rock‘;

“It was an age of wonder. It was the era of the pocket calculator and the digital watch. Toy manufacturer Coleco introduced the first electronic pocket-sized sports games. Video arcades were popping up in malls all over America; games like Pac Man, Centipede and Asteroids were supplanting the pinball machine as a teenager’s favorite pastime. The world of the Jetsons was slowly coming into being.

For three decades Hollywood turned out low budget sci-fi flicks that depicted a world ran by computers and policed by robots. All one had to do was to turn on the TV to get a look at what the future held for us. With all of the talk about technological advancement back then, people wondered what music would sound like in the future.

Couldn’t have put it better myself.
