Muxtape

Tuesday, April 15th, 2008

There is a reason why I’ve never been big into making mixtapes. Don’t get me wrong, I love the ones people have made for me (apparently you do so when you’re trying to woo someone!) and I would love to return the gesture. But I can’t choose! There are simply too many variables.

In the last few days I’ve come across Muxtape here and there and everywhere. I decided to give it a go. I’m not going to tell you how long it took me to pick just 12 tracks. After much head scratching I had to narrow the selection down to bands beginning with an ‘M’. M for Muxtape or M for Milla, you decide. Anyhow, here it is, my Muxtape.

Music and such

Monday, April 14th, 2008

Today I have reviewed three albums and here are the results.

1. The Long Blondes: Couples

Review: I don’t think so. At least not after the first listen.

2. MGMT: Oracular Spectacular

Review: Funny noises, eclectic, nice!

3. The Parlor Mob: And You Were A Crow

Review: Horse shit. That said, I’m sensing the same sort of (heavy) metal influences in a lot of the music of the moment. Maybe it’ll just take some getting used to.

. . .

That was the music news. And here’s an image I found on FFFFOUND!. Unfortunately I can’t find the name of the artist. But I like it a lot.

Beautiful losers

Sunday, April 13th, 2008

You need to a flashplayer enabled browser to view this YouTube video

Beautiful Losers is a documentary about cool freaks creating culture. That’s a terrible description, please read more here. I found out about it on a Finnish blog called Luksus, and got drawn in because one of the artists featured in the film is Harmony Korine. He is the director (and writer) of such weird and wonderful movies as Gummo and Julien Donkey-Boy. He also wrote the screenplay for Kids and Ken Park, both controversial coming-of-age tales. Anyhow- Beautiful Losers looks very interesting and I am planning to watch it as soon as I get my hands (eyes) on it!
