Electro Sunday

So out of sheer boredom, I decided to toss up a the songs I'm feeling of late from particular genres. Here's what I've got for Electronica today:

Binarpilot - Goof



Deadmau5 - Ghosts n stuff



Justice - Genesis



Justice - Waters of Nazareth



Justice - Phantom Pt. II (Soulwax Remix)



Digitalism - Home Zone



Digitalism - Zdarlight



Daft Punk - Touch It/Technologic (Alive 2007)



Darft Punk - Harder Better Faster Stronger/Around the World (Alive 2007 Radio Edit)



Daft Punk - Too Long (Alive 2007)





That should be a good start. Tell me what you noobs think.

Enjoy.

White Stripes Movie Trailer + Killers DVD

Two interesting tidbits about performance DVDs were revealed today.

First, the White Stripes posted a trailer for their upcoming movie, Under the Great White Northern Lights. The movie premiered on the 18th at the Toronto Film Festival. I have no idea what it's about or when it will be widely released, but here's the trailer:



Additionally, The Killers are releasing a DVD, Live From The Royal Albert Hall, on November 10th. The DVD includes the full show, as well as some bonus performances and behind-the-scenes interviews and whatnot. Somehow I doubt it will convey the same grandeur and pomp as actually seeing them in person, but it should be worth a watch.

Rush Making a 19th Album

That's right, Geddy Lee and crew are supposedly heading back into the recording studio to lay down a 19th album.

Article/Blog thing

I really wasn't a fan of Snakes and Arrows, but maybe they can redeem themselves here.

Hey, It's Music Related...

Hilarious video. This firmly support my suspicions that Lady Gaga would have horrendous sounding live music...the act could be interesting though. At least good for a laugh.

EDIT: The HTML for the video embed had a missing bracket, and I don't feel like digging through it to find it. Lazy link to the rescue

Illegal Downloading Through the Eyes of an Artist

Just found a very insightful article on Sputnikmusic about illegal downloading from an independent artist's perspective. Take a look, it should help inform some opinions on the subject.

I more or less agree with everything he's saying, however I do illegally download as a preview of albums. If I like it, I'll buy it. If I don't, I'll delete it. Also, we've already seen the drastic increase in merchandise prices, although I don't see the prices of shows going up too much. Who is going to buy tickets at marked up prices for bands they don't absolutely love? Only die hard fans would, and there simply wouldn't be enough to get a up-and-coming bands on their feet. Merchandise prices are and have been rising, but if they raise the prices of shows, the only outcome will be less fans at shows. It's that simple.

No Music Today, Just Football

Not much going on musically right now, and who cares? Today is about nothing but football.

New Muse Song Posted

Muse, the critically and publicly acclaimed rock trio (not to be confused with Dugtrio) from England, released another song from their upcoming album, The Resistance, which drops September 15th.

I'm on campus right now, and I don't have my headphones, so I don't want to disturb all these people studying, but I did want to get this posted as soon as I saw it.

Take a listen.
