The Fresh Prince of Doukutsu

Saturday, July 3rd, 2010

Finally, crappy 1990s television comes together with really good indie game, Cave Story.

In the Port of Amsterdam

In my favorite interpretation of the original Jacques Brel song, Scott Walker sings.

Nothing like being out for an afternoon drive… being awesome.

Why Judy Why

Wednesday, June 16th, 2010

An early Billy Joel song from his first album, Cold Spring Harbor. I truly believe Joel was at his best when he was in his thoughtful youth.

Köyhän Pojan Kerjäys

Monday, June 14th, 2010

By Haikara, my new favorite Finnish band from 1972. Gotta love that album art too. Here’s another one.

Ziggy Vocoder

Just having some good Polish fun. Be sure to stay tune until the end for the wedding surprise.

John Wayne Gacy Jr

Just a beautiful song for a solemn night. By Sufjan Stevens, a Michigan native.

Sid Caesar’s Beethoven’s 5th

Sid Caesar and Nanette Fabray, married and upset.

Lady Gaga’s fire bra prototype

Saturday, May 8th, 2010

A prototype test of Lady Gaga’s sparking fire bra explosion. Yep, Lady Gaga.

Moonstream

Sunday, April 25th, 2010

In a world where Adobe Flash may be a dieing medium, it might be important to remember that there are still some cool implementations of Flash out there. Moonstream gives you an ever changing stream if images and music to stimulate your mind whenever it needs, well, stimulating. And if that this website doesn’t do it for you, try watching this amazing fan made music video for Gobbledigook.

When I’m Sixty-Four

Monday, April 12th, 2010

A great cover of When I’m Sixty-Four by the Beatles – perfect for anytime of day as the days turn to summer.

Wolfram Tones

Saturday, April 10th, 2010

From the math jerks at Wolfram, here’s WolframTones. It’s pretty neat — you choose a music genre and it creates a unique song based on it. Here’s my best work. The music it outputs is hardly that impressive, but for being a piece of software, it’s really interesting. Too bad they implemented it using midi.

Early vocoder

Saturday, April 3rd, 2010

An ancestor of the more popular vocoders of the past four decades. If only our culture could keep up with its technological advances.

Where is My Mind

Monday, March 29th, 2010

A beautiful piano over of Where is My Mind by The Pixies. Arranged and performed by Maxence Cyrin, whose work is definitely worth checking out. The music is set to old-timey 1920s movie, The Mysterious Lady. I’ve never seen the film, but the images add much to the performance. He also has piano covers of Daft Punk, Justice, Aphex Twin and Yellow Magic Orchestra, all of which are just as brilliant. Just, so graceful.

Wizards & Warriors vs Mr Crowley

Friday, March 26th, 2010

Listening to Mr Crowley on the radio today, I realized that the ending sequence of Mr Crowley and the title theme of Wizards and Warriors have the same chord progression. Watch a bit of the above videos for the comparison. What a catchy sequence!

Great cover of Time in a Bottle

Friday, March 19th, 2010

I don’t think making a respectable cover of a Jim Croce song would be an easy thing to do, but all the way from Taiwan, this man does it. If you’re not a fan of this song, you can always just turn down the volume and enjoy the green screen effects. I just wish he would do a cover of my favorite Jim Croce song.

Words are very unnecessary

Friday, March 12th, 2010

Green screen, chiptune, Depeche Mode. Full screen to fully experience the journey, be patient. Brilliant.

Baby geniuses

And what were you doing at 15 years old?

Thank you, Mr President

Monday, March 1st, 2010

Well, we’re back in business over here. And to re-inaugurate this place, I dedicate and hereby declare this song to be the new official tune of this website.

[Bumpers]

Sunday, January 24th, 2010

[Bump Worth] presents [Adults Swim] bumps. Over 1800 of them and counting. Besides wasting time doing nothing, this site is also a great way to find some of the best bumper music [Adult Swim] was brought us over the years.

Finally, robotic beings rule the world

Friday, January 22nd, 2010

Ever wonder who has the fastest hands? — robot pianist or robot typist?

Quick man

Thursday, January 21st, 2010

Who has the fastest hands — the pianist or the typist? — For any given interval, is it possible to hit more keystrokes on a computer keyboard than musical notes on a piano? If so, has anyone ever tried mapping a computer keyboard to a piano’s keys so that they could play the piano on their computer keyboard, and thus becoming the de-facto fastest piano player ever?

I’ve done some searching around, but so far the internet has yet to yield me an answer. So for now, the best we can do is watch these two videos, simultaneously.
