I was part of the Worldly Self Assurance for NEs VI and VII. Glennny can confirm.

I will be there.

I'm also really enjoying Rayland Baxter - Wide Awake

New albums out today!!

Dirty Projectors - Lamp Lit Prose
Amy Shark - Love Monster

add - Lovely acoustic guitar intro. I like how the electric piano comes in halfway through the first verse. That's a nice and subtle change. Overall, feels a bit like the softer side of add and I like it! BSS - Lots to love about this track. I enjoyed the heavy organ that reminds me a bit of Iron Bu...

It's a simple musical phrase: just five different pitches, spread out...

I saw this movie over the weekend and it was really fun! Lots of good San Francisco locations, effects were well integrated, and a good balance of action and humor. It isn't a spoiler to remind you to stay until the end!

Wow. I really enjoyed this movie. Good twist on the original premise and development of the characters. Not a big surprise when the villain is revealed, but still an enjoyable turn of events. Visuals and music are great! Try to get the Elastigirl theme song out of your head! Go see this movie!

The Snail Mail record is really good. I'll have to check out Gruff Rhys.

Anyone excited for an album or single that was released today?

I'm going to check out:
Thrice - The Grey (single)
Pllush - Stranger to the Pain
Lykke Li - so sad so sexy
Snail Mail - Lush

You?

I didn't think Ghost would be my thing, but I actually dug it. It was more melodic than I expected. Thanks for mentioning it.

Hi All,
Today is New Music Friday, when artists' release their new albums. What new albums are you listening to today?

For me:

Father John Misty - God's Favorite Customer
Natalie Prass - The Future and the Past

Ken

Thankful for your friendship Steve!

Arby - It's possible to get a great recording with 1 stereo mic into a recorder. Cowboy Junkies did it with "The Trinity Session". https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Trinity_Session They had a great room with great acoustics. They had a $9000 Calrec Ambisonic mic into RDAT. They used a PA ...

I like this show too. Sadly, it seems like Fox is clearing the slate as Last Man on Earth is also a great show being cancelled.

Has anyone listened to this podcast? I just heard about it today, but haven't checked it out yet?

Good ideas. My first thought is that you first need to make sure any gaps in your ceiling are filled. Any crack, no matter how small, will let sound travel through. The next thing I thought of is just to add a layer of drywall. Mass is your friend, so you should see a reduction just by putting up mo...

Thought this was due today. Berkeley Social Scene is in!
