Indians & Cowboys, Musical recommendation

Once in a while, an album drops that just sucks you in to the magical world of sound it has created. I've had a bunch of album "crushes" over the year in a bunch of varied styles and genres. I've been a metal head at times, a hiphoper, a psychadelic raver, a pop:er and a reggae aficionado, all in the name of good , well-produced music. This time I just need to recommend "Indians & Cowboys" by the Danish duo (trio) Den Sorte Skole. It's their latest album and it dropped a little less than a week ago and I can't get enough. It's a musical journey where the two have just done the biggest archaeological dig through the crates possible. A mind-blowing number of samples from the past 60-70 years of music. They're no strangers to digging as their previous albums Lektion 1-3, have been equally well researched. But this album, for some reason or other, just sticks out to me.

Random Access Memories

Whaaa! It's the 21st! And almost every electronic music fan in the world knows what that means, at least they should. Today's date marks the release of one of the most anticipated albums in since 2007 when the group last released an album. They're pioneers in many aspects and have literally defined an entire country's electronic sound. So when the viral marketing and the rumors we've been victims of for the past 5 months actually turned out to be true, everyone from Granddad to lil' Timmy's been shitting bricks and holding their breaths. Cleverly they also released the "Creators Series - Collaborators" in partnership with HUGE companies, so music buffs like myself could wet myself even more over the many geniuses they've brought in to collaborate with. "What the HECK is this album he's talking about?" you're asking yourself.

Movie Diary, Iron Man 3

Went to see Iron Man 3 . Produced by: Victoria Alonso, Stephen Broussard, Louis D'Esposito, Jon Favreau. Directed by: Shane Black Cast by: Sarah Finn (working currently on Guardians of the Galaxy (2014), The Little Prince, Godzilla (2014), Captain America 2 (Filming)) Follow up to Iron Man and Iron Man 2 about eccentric billionaire playboy Tony Stark played by Robert Downey Jr. based on a Marvel character. Initial thoughts about movie: A lot of CGI and extreme closeups of actors faces. A lot of scenes inside the "Iron Man"-suit really close to Robert Downey Jr, Gwyneth Paltrow and Don Cheadle. What stood out to me was the lack of real emotion throughout the movie. It was predictable and left me with a feeling of "meh". A movie I know I have to have see during 2013, because everyone will talk about it, but it's not top ranking in my book. Ben Kingsley's acting was phenomenal. 4/10 total Don't be a stranger! Loves
