I feel love.. by *NaBHaN
I sometimes regret that I’m more of a logic thinker than a creative person. It always amazes me when I see people freehand draw. I wish I could just put whatever’s inside my head on paper.
Anyways, this picture looks pretty badass on my site, I love hotpink and purple.
Props to the artist.

Be Kind Rewind
Filed under Entertainment, Humor, Video, World & Business.
Be Kind Rewind is a fantastic movie about a video store clerk and his bud who are forced to reenact popular movies with limited time and no money.
Even before the movie was released, the trailer already caused a big internet sensation because the concept is so original, the idea is genius. (speaking of internet sensation, look up the term ‘sweded‘ on the tube)
It excited me even more knowing that Michel Gondry was going to direct it. I really dig his unique way of displaying an imaginary situation on screen, like the over-the-top Science of Sleep and his music videos.
It’s in no way a perfectly directed film, but it really gives you a great feeling, makes me feel young again :-).
Be Kind Rewind is funny, original, clever and creative, just a terrific feel good movie.
Go see it, Josdigital tells you to.
Four Tet - I’m on Fire
Filed under Dance, Electronic, Experimental, Music. | Comments (2)
Four Tet’s new Ringer EP is crazy. Great to see new work from the musical genius that is Kieran Hebden, besides his work with Steve Reid.
I’m on Fire is a two part song Kieran Hebden did for an EP in 2002.
It’s not so easy to find, but to me it’s the kind of song that I can play on a never ending loop for days and still wouldn’t get bored.

btw that image was for a promotional Dj mix for the Ringer EP. Just really liked it, reminds me of the Sony Bravia commercial.
Postal Service covers Flaming Lips
Filed under Electronic, Instrumental, Music, Rock.
In my opinion, the new Death Cab for Cutie album can’t compare to previous efforts.
I do like this The Flaming Lips cover by Ben Gibbard’s other electro-pop project, with Dntel’s Jimmy Tamborello.

M83 - Saturdays = Youth
Filed under Electronic, Experimental, Music, Rock.
As an M83 listener you might be a little disappointed at first that Saturdays = Youth doesn’t sound as big or “epic” as Before the Dawn Heals Us. I had that same feeling for half a listen.
Like Stereogum says, that shit is plenty epic. Even the P4kers like it, they call it the vertical push on Before the Dawn Heals Us.
The nostalgic feel for the 80’s is what French musician Anthony Gonzalez inspired on this record. An ode to the ever great John Hughes films and the birth of electronic synths. The album cover really describes it best.
The album is full of breathy Kate Bush like vocals, melodic guitar riffs and echoed-up drums, just that classic 80’s sound with a modern electronic touch. Electro pop or shoegaze with a repetitive ending chorus for each song that doesn’t get tiresome, on the contrary, it just gives it that extra layer of power which makes it that bit more spectacular.
Not often does an album like this have such an impact on me, maybe I experienced a little too much late 80’s media. Nonetheless a highly recommended listen to an open mind.
Check the video for Graveyard Girl after the jump.

Atlas Sound - “Recent Bedroom”

Really don’t like the video, looks so staged, but listen to that silky smooth song a couple of times.
Air - “Run”

My favorite Air track, according to Last.fm.

If you’ve never heard of the french duo Air, their band name best describes their music..
Consistency is necessary
Filed under Entertainment, Thoughts.
I always try to stay consistent with my postings but I always fail. Maybe this wasn’t meant to be. Maybe josdigital wasn’t meant to be.
My statistics tell me that whenever I neglect this blog for a while, I lose a great deal of “regular” visitors. Luckily I don’t post to get visitors, or to make a statement. But I think it’s normal that you want to reach as much audience as possible when you try to get something to the outside world, even if that means leaving out your personal objections or foul language.
Rest assured that this blog isn’t going anywhere. I love to do these little postings and musical recommendations.
The real reason I haven’t touched this blog in a while, is because I finally moved out of my parents house and just haven’t had the time to check what’s happening on the internets.
