No Music Day
Today is No Music Day. Sorry. That’s kind of hard for us to observe around here. Maybe next year we can play along.
Epitaph for a Thin Man
This is a post specifically for our buddy Sellout Music, but applies to any Dylan fans out there (Arlin, you still checking in?). It seems that Jeffrey Owen Jones, the unwitting protagonist of Dylan’s “Ballad of a Thin Man” passed away this Tuesday. MeFi poster y2karl posted the news today along with a link to[…]
Ellen McLain does GLaDOS does Jonathan Coulton
I really didn’t think I’d stumble upon my new favorite song while checking email tonite, but here it is. It’s a Jonathan Coulter song, performed by the AI character in the computer game Portal, voiced by Ellen McLain. Oh my goodness. Guys at Valve, we salute you. If you care about such things, you can[…]
Halloween Treat: Opening Sequence to “Fearless Vampire Killers”
I wasn’t planning on posting anything Halloween-themed today, but Krzysztof Komeda‘s music for the opening sequence of Roman Polanski’s “Fearless Vampire Killers” is too good to pass up.
Fugue Filter
Wanna write a fugue? Well, here’s a little anatomy lesson. Don’t worry. No need to be intimidated by all that technical jargon. With the modern day wonders of the internets (read YouTube), you can learn how to fugue from either Glenn Gould or Danny Pi. Next question: what’s your theme? Don’t know? Need a little[…]

Where’s the Bridge?
Internet superstar Tay Zonday will be performing his song “Chocolate Rain” on the Jimmy Kimmel show tonight. As for any pre-show jitters, Zonday blogged the following on Myspace: Can’t decide whether to attempt it with the keyboard or do it with a backing track, which I am more confident in. I will probably err on[…]
Solid Gold Theme Song
powered by ODEO Via WFMU and somehow messed up by the above ODEO player so it sounds as if it’s being performed by Alvin and the Chipmunks. Good times.
South County Tulsa
Here’s some more recent work, this time another collaborative custom music project with Sellout Music. For this :30 TV spot, the client was looking for something minimal and “hip.” In particular, they wanted an electronic arrangement based around an acoustic instrument. Sellout came up with the meat and bones of this piece, a plaintive, delayed[…]
‘Tis Your Lucky Bun Day
Since it’s Monday, here’s Spinal Tap performing Big Bottom with “every bass player in the know universe.”
Bjork Attack
Here’s footage of Bjork performing live on Later with Jools Holland. This is inspirational and cool on so many levels. The song is dedicated to Faroese Independence. Plus, some guy in the band is playing a Reactable! Wow! I am enamored both by that and by that dirgy synth-bass line. And check out the the[…]
