I have listened to two episodes of the Theme Time Radio Hour with Bob Dylan and I must say it was really good. It was a nice mix of music and Bob’s commentaries between songs are informative and funny. It feels like this is something he really enjoys doing and has put a lot of thought [...]

Sunshine in the sunshine

My first day off from work in a while and I have a cold. It is sunny outside so what better way to spend the day than to watch a movie called Sunshine. This is a movie by director Danny Boyle and writer Alex Garland. I had heard a lot of nice things about this movie on two separate movie [...]

Do not let the cover on this album scare you away. The boys on this cover look hilarious but the music is really interesting! This is one of the first synth records I ever heard.
Behind the make up and funny hairdos you will find some really cool melodic synth music. On this album Hipnosis cover two legendary synth [...]

I just uploaded a cover of Tangerine Dream’s “Canyon Voices” to my myspace page.
It is in no way revolutionary but I believe it is a good track with a nice melody. It was fun to play around with a little.
The original track appears on the album Canyon Dreams from 1991. The music was composed in 1987 for the Miramar [...]
The Derek Zoolander Awards – Finding Nemo

The Derek Zoolander Award - A really, really ridiculously good looking movie.
This is the first animated movie I have featured here. Finding Nemo from Disney & Pixar is a great good looking underwater adventure. The look and feel of this movie balances somewhere between realistic and animated. Not an easy task but this movie manages it really well. It is colorful and [...]
The Brothers Solomon

I watched this movie called The Brothers Solomon yesterday. When I first read about this movie it was compared to A Night at the Roxbury and Dumb & Dumber. We get to follow these two looser brothers with the biggest hearts. The movie was written by Will Forte, the brother on the right.
It was pretty good. Not [...]

Was TV better in the 80s? When I look at this picture and have to say…
I am not sure…
I remember watching the tv series V when I was a kid and it was really exciting. I am not sure if I will enjoy it as much today. But I do enjoy this image, a sexy [...]

# 994
Artist: Mike Oldfield

This is one of my favourite albums by one of my favourite artists. It is perhaps not one of his most well known work like Tubular Bells or the hit Moonlight Shadow. The music, arrangements and harmonies on this is [...]
Cylon and Garfunkel

I watched an episode of Futurama called “Bendin’ in the wind”. There was this hillarious bit with the musical duo Cylon and Garfunkel singing “Scarborough Fair”.
Perfect harmony?

Free is Nice – The Hollywood Saloon
Posted in Free is Nice, tagged art of commentary, fan edit, format wars, Movies, Podcast, The Hollywood Saloon, www.hollywoodsaloon.com on April 24, 2008 | 3 Comments »
The Hollywood Saloon is a great podcast about movies and the big world around them. The show is hosted by Andy and John. The two hosts are excellent and are obviously very educated and passionate when it comes to movies. But they are not only academically interested in movies but also huge movie fans.
The shows are often based around different [...]
