Moby Soundtrack as a Sleep Aid
If you’re one of the people who claim to have problems going to sleep, this guy Moby is the one who did the “Extreme Ways” song on the Jason Bourne soundtrack (The Bourne Legacy, which I liked). Apparently he also … Continue reading
Gravity Song
The soundtrack songs make all the difference, in this series of treatments of movie Gravity.
Was It 2012 or 2112?
File this under Signs of the (Mayan?) Apocalypse: Rush Featured on NPR. Wow. I recently saw Rush play a show in Atlanta. The crowd ranged in age from five to the mid-fifties, embracing both lank-haired teenage skateboarders and heart surgeons. … Continue reading

So Now It’s Okay…
…to like Rush? That’s what it says in the Toronto Globe and Mail: Both the book and the film attempt to come to grips with a band that has had the most unusual career trajectory, defying age and the loathing … Continue reading
Chuck Music
New music is one of the unexpected benefits of having suddenly discovered the awesomeness that is the TV show Chuck. I hardly listen to the radio, and the radio stations up in the high desert are why. We don’t even … Continue reading
Relient K Compilation
It hasn’t been that long since they came out with an album of new material, but I see that Relient K has released a compilation album: The First Three Gears. If you’d like to fill in the gaps in your … Continue reading
