Runaway Del Shannon

Runaway
by Del Shannon

The song features a famous solo by Max Crook, performed on a heavily-modified clavioline that Crook called the “Musitron”. The clavioline is an electronic keyboard instrument, a forerunner to the analog synthesizer. (wikipedia)

Man, I think that Musitron solo could be the greatest moment in music in the past 500 years, and I will think that for another week or so until I find another organ/piano solo to obsess over.

The Footloose Remake: What is it? → thefootlooseremake.com

We are a collection of amateur filmmakers and video-making enthusiasts, recreating the Kevin Bacon classic and releasing it this summer. Different filmmakers from all over have divided the original 1984 Footloose into 54 different scenes. 54 different filmmakers. 54 different Ren McCormack’s.

Built a blog/site for our crazy Footloose remake project. I don’t know if this is really an attack on Hollywood, but it’s fun to promote it that way. YOU’RE GOING DOWN, HOLLYWOOD FOOTLOOSE REMAKE!

Follow the Tumblr for important updates, like the one or two free screenings we’ll have in Los Angeles before we put this thing online.

LINK: Roger Ebert "How I believe in God" (Chicago Sun-Times) → blogs.suntimes.com

“If there was a First Cause, was there a First Causer? Or did Big Bangs just happen to happen? Can we name the First Causer “God?” We can name it anything we want. I can name it after myself. It is utterly insignificant what it is called, because we would be giving a name to something that falls outside all categories of thought and must be unknowable and irrelevant to knowledge.”

Can’t Help it | by Yes Giantess

I enjoy these guys. I wish they were friends of mine. I bet they like watching LOST and making fun of Matthew Fox’s acting style and pulling the cardboard divider out of three-kind popcorn tins just like me.

Everybody Lies Matt Berger & Melissa Lusk

Everybody Lies
by Matt Berger & Melissa Lusk

from
Songs For “The Boy Who Couldn’t Sleep And Never Had To”
(original songs inspired by the novel by DC Pierson)

This is a cool thing. DC Pierson (Derrick Comedy, Mystery Team) wrote a novel, and I’ve been reading it. I also downloaded this EP of sorts from his blog — not really reading the description, just collecting MP3’s and adding them to a mix of new music. I was surprised and stoked when this song came on and I realized the collection of music is about the novel. The tunes inspired by the text, this song tracing the tone of the chapter I was just reading. A cool thing.
