Visible and Audible?

Well folks, I'm in a listening funk. I've been neglecting my computer, CD player, and even music TV channels. I don't know why, but lately (meaning this past week) when I listen to music, I've just had to depend on Pandora to be on because I've been lacking the motivation to find and listen to music. But, Pandora proves to be a nifty little sucker every now and again.

If you haven't used Pandora, just try it out for a spell, and if you want some eclectic shit to blast your ear-buds a new one, then make a Beck station. You won't regret it. It plays the most random stuff, but it's always enjoyable. Because of this station, I've grown more of a new-found appreciation for electronic music, or music that is extremely beat-heavy. If you ask any of my friends, they will tell you that I flat out don't like electronic music, which isn't necessarily the case. I just don't care for it. Meaning, that it's not what I head for first when I enter a record store because it's not what gets my mojo risin'. Get the reference?

On another note, would someone please stand behind me in making a formal complaint to Urban Outfitters Radio. As an employee of the clothing store, I have to spend every shift listening to the same shit over and over and over. It's the most ridiculous, electronic, trendy, runway bullshit my ears have had the displeasure of enduring. I won't even go further into it because to give it any more play on your eyes would be a true disservice to music fans and generations to come. All I'm saying is Urban needs to play some good shit because it's seriously slacking, and it's making me want to quit my job on principle alone.

Veering away from music for a second, I am insanely excited to see more movies lately. Maybe that's why I've been neglecting music as of late. Maybe I just need more visual stimulation. Also, I feel that since Hollywood is at this random stage of making movies that are cheap entertainment, especially with regard to horrendous remakes, (please don't get me started on Footloose), there's still hope out there. Here's a list of movies I am ecstatic to see...

Melancholia
Another Earth
Restless
Contagion
The Skin I Live In
Drive

I'm most excited about Melancholia. I've been wanting to delve more into Lars Von Trier's films, and I think this one may be a good start. Here's the trailer:




That's all I got for now... Keep it rockin'. Peace!
