So I had this itch to listen to the old theme for the '80s show 'The Peoples Court', and tracked it down to here.
With all the random instrumental inserts and timing, I can't help but to think that's what playing a game of Phoenix Wright should sound like.

I don't think he wins.
Mark is easily the biggest influence in my musical pathways.
Anyway, I just bought this off iTunes.
I also find myself debating if I want to try to find a bluegrass album that he introduced me to, either by ordering or checking out my local music shops, as iTunes doesn't stock it - I bet his Emusic has it, d'oh
Speaking of which, why doesn't iTunes have some sort of wish-list or a 'remind me later that I want this' function? Or is it there, and I've simply never noticed?
This album is absolutely wonderful, and would have gone entirely unnoticed by me if I hadn't realized O.M.F.O. performed two of the more awesome songs in the Borat movie - the opening theme and the 'traveling' music. The scope of the album is ingenious; very modern and varied from track to track, all while keeping a good grasp of the culturally-rooted theme.
For Novak, even though I'm sure he's heard this before.
I actually meant to post this like a week ago, but I kept forgetting and/or putting it off and/or not at home to do so. And also, more of the same.
What are your three favorite album covers of all-time? Any honorable mentions?
Question submitted by Tamara.
I actually buy a lot of CDs and music based entirely along with how pleasing or interesting the album art is. And for the most part, my doing such has proven to work out well for me. Black Utopia, to the left, is an amazing dark-future cityscape, full of blues and purples, with awesome shadowing and foreboding flecks of red.
The album itself is actually pretty kick-ass as well, as Derek Sherinian and his cohorts drive out an awesome display of percussion, synth, and of course, the electric guitar that the album is primarily centered around.
I believe iTunes suggested this to me as one of their 'you might like...' offerings and I immediately dug on the simi-abstract, entirely organic-meets-geometry art style. There's a lot to look at in this album, including a pair of characters that blend rather well into the artwork and are easily overlooked in the grand view, giving the entire piece an interesting sense of scale and perspective.
Caural is minimalism, which is a total contrast to the weight of the artwork. Quite often, however, their music builds into a more complex and interesting style, making them one of my favorite selections to listen to while reading - Most of the music in this album has a unique amorphous quality, fitting the current mood of my literature just right and without any track skipping or conscious thought to the tune.
I'd rather not delve too deep into this one, other than stating that my mother had a vast collection of Billy Idol records when I was growing up, and I often spent time idolizing [hah] the covers.
So what if I wanted to grow up to be him; I was a child of the early MTV generation, and there are far worse I could have aimed for.
Rockin' out in Taco with my friend Neyo. One of these times, I plan on posting some more indepth pictures reguarding that particular guitar I'm holding. I need to finish the script work for it, then I think I might open up a music store, ala DS's Dai Gassou! Band Brothers.
I decided to go through some of my iTunes library and add a bunch of the albums I own to the audio section to test the feature. It is by no means a complete accounting of my actual collection of music, especially considering Amazon doesn't even register most of my CDs in their database, but at least it displays a good spectrum of what I listen to.
My local GameStop happened to have a used copy of Gitaroo Man, so I bought it on a whim while reserving Disgaea 2. Of course, this just reminds me that I need to post some pictures of my SL project of a similar, guitar-esque nature..
