My, But I Think I Love This

"Delicate in every way but one:

The swordplay

God knows we like Archaic kinds of fun

The Old Way"

Something More To Write To...

More Music To Write Too

I have some really excellent news, but want to wait till the contract is signed to post up about it here... In the meantime, some good music for the wait:

The Wolf

While the movie isn't the best, it has it's moments. Among them, this song:

Rodrigo Y Gabriela

My last post was a video of the awesomeness that is: Rodrigo y Gabriela.  Go listen to it if you haven't already. It, and they, are amazing.

I have purchased the album,  11:11. Fast where it should be, deliberate where it should, and always powerful, the music is truly a pleasure free of guilt. Chac Mool, the shortest track, is a favorite I have found new things in every time I listen to it.

This, from an older album with a number of cover songs on it, shows some more of the skill this pair bring to their guitars:

Another Tune For Writing...

More Music To Write To...

Stumbled upon this rather amazing song and singer...







I feel like I need a martini in hand, smoking jacket and all. Or perhaps an Austin Martin an a tux...

Umm.... Wow...

Character Soundtracks

The following are some of the tunes I listen to as I create the horrible situations I put the character's through. Some characters evoke some music, other music evokes some characters for me.

Below is a sample for each of the major characters:

Officer Venkman:



Officer Baptiste:



Rankless Wardlaw:



Captain Schrader:

Prometheus' soundtrack:

Mad Morgan:

Scroobius Pip

Thanks to Tim Akers for bringing Scroobius Pip to my attention. This is exceptional:



My favorite line:

You see a mousetrap, I see free cheese and a fucking challenge!

And...More music to write to

Don't bother me, I'm writing here. I am...

The Cleverest Music Video I Have Ever Seen

Watch it all the way to the end. I love the way the director plays with the watcher's expectations.

More Music To Write To.

The video is something to watch, as well.

Battleflag

This song gets the blood going.

So does the video, though for different reasons.

More Music That's New To Me

Yesterday I was tooling the internets, looking for entertainment (I had already written a ton for Bridges of The Broken, so relax.) when I went to Eileen Andrews' site. She had there, for my listening pleasure, the Midieaval Baebes. I found their music a wonder and pleasure to listen too, and particularly appropriate as I was reading SM Stirling's The High King of Montival, which I received for Christmas.

Check Medieaval Baebes Out:



And, for fans of Simon & Garfunkle:

Amon Tobin

This song is not only pretty cool, it's also been useful as I write something a bit odd... And the video is amazing:
