Mindless Ramblings of The Cool Ones

[peggygee]

Had a ton of videotapes, but had to get rid of them because between the
books, magazines, computers, and electronics, there was getting to be no
place for me in my home. That and the fact of video tape degradation, and
they just don't look as good as digital media.

Same for my music, when I tell folks that I have 10s of thousands of songs
on my Ipod (which is a fraction of my total music; .mp3, .ogg, .aac, .wav,
cds, vinyl, cassettes, and music I have created) they look at me askance.

Sparked by this convo I went rummaging through my media archives. The
other night I watched "The Fugitive" on dvd - 500 channels, and "On
Demand" and there was nothing I wanted to watch.

The next day I went through my old audio cassettes looking for something to
sample. Found a few tapes that were inaudible due to tape hiss and oxidation.

I did find one that I don't even remember making. I will archive it to cd - .mp3,
put it on my Ipod. I will also sample it, there are a few Hindi Hop, trip-hop,
and acid jazz songs I have been working on.

That reminds me of the BT Express album I found in my grandma's belongings after she passed. I'm so pissed someone took that after I said I wanted it... even if I didn't have a record player... BT Express is the shit. >_<

"Sho you right", and I have them on cassette, vinyl, cd, and .mp3.

Do It ('Til You're Satisfied) - B.T. Express - 1974 - boy do I feel old.

It must have been awesome growing up on this stuff.

Watch the movie just released on DvD The Warriors Way last night, pretty good movie.

[CosmicTraveler]

Who's in that one?

Who's in that one?

Dong-gun Jang and lol Kate Bosworth :P the best aspects are the action as the story did teeter to "oh no's" territory.

[CosmicTraveler]

I don't know either of those people... I need to expand my collection of films. Right now I feel like gathering more Shaw Brothers films.

Yeah, the film was new to me as well. I caught it on a whim, and again, the action sequences are the highlights of this movie.

[CosmicTraveler]

I don't so much mind a film where the action is the highlight unless the story suffers because of it as you said it did. That was one thing I liked about the movie Faster. The story was more to the sideline but still kept you interested. Not enough action movies manage that well enough.
