Oh noes!

October 19, 2008

So I stumbled upon (not using StumbleUpon, ironically) the Internet Wayback Machine and hit it up for old instances of LiquidElephant.
Found this.
It’s me blogging about stuff about 4 years ago, and it’s almost as boring as my current stuff! Huzzay!

I wish …

October 7, 2008

There’s a track on ‘The Other Side’ single from Pendulum. It’s a live version of Showdown without their MC verbally crapping all over it, and has an awesome intro that builds into the main song.
I really wish they’d release it as a properly mastered single without the crowd noise over it.
That’s about all, really [...]

September 16, 2008

Wrong Del Monte
Click and you’ll see me, demonstrating an incorrect smoothie lolly.
At the end I say “It’s not right” in a BAD Italian Accent, but thankfully it doesn’t seem to have picked it up

Life, it’s a series of compromises

September 8, 2008

According to Wikipedia, Mansun were an indie band that formed in 1995 that “liberally [mixed] beatrock, prog, psychedelia, pop, and 80s noir influences—along with having a fearsome live act who drastically rearranged their songs for the stage”.

Cars and Cameras

Not a musing (read: rant) this time, you’ll be glad to see
I just scrolled down and saw my post Making a Mark. Posted on June 6th, it was borne out of a desire to do something with my life (a recurring theme of mine that ebbs and flows like a very sporadic tide) [...]

Sometimes I Don’t Understand (Music) Fans

August 23, 2008

I like to think of myself as a music fan who has a fairly diverse range of likes (and dislikes) but mainly enjoys songs/albums/artists for “the music” and not what they stand for (there’s the odd exception to that rule of course).
