Tel Aviv - Incredible Amateur Audio/Video Mashup
That comment is a reflection on what I hear on a daily basis.
Perhaps my wordage is off, but the stuff coming at us 24-7 is created by studios, not musicians. So much of what I hear is produced by guys sitting at mixer boards and computers.
My comment isn't aimed at every person out there making music, in fact I know there are lots of musicians out there with talent and skill..., but we never get to hear them over all the crap being dealt out by the industry which is breeding Egos as musicians. (I'd choose Beck over Beyonce any day of the week.)
Sure, I know, it may seem like I'm digging a hole and jumping in but the system is broken and the good music is being squelched. Maybe not 100% of the time, but listen to the music. The electronic age is filtering everything out of the music, no more drummer, no guitar, auto tune, synthetic voice. where is all the character? Where are all the happy accidents that real music serves us. How many of today's artistes (on the charts) can serve us music without a guy mixing it to make them sound good, double tracking, and keeping their voices in tune? I know these tricks have been used for years but never to the extent they are being used today.
I remember a quote by Niel Young, way back when he was recording. The guys at the board keep telling him he wasn't hitting the note, and his answer was "Hey, that's my style man!" So they had to leave it in, and the result was great. Pure Niel Young.
So, I guess it's not so much the musicians out there, so much as it is the recording studios, and the system of pump out the next clone hit...
It was Tony James that initiated this era, back when he created Sigue Sigue Sputnik. He had a dream, a vision of what the band looked and sounded like. He hired people that looked like what he wanted, none could play music, he taught them three chords and they they became the number one, unrecorded, unsigned band in history, and EMI finally Won (relative term) by offering them the most money. From that point all the music was produces electronically in the studio. It sounded like crap, but I loved it. It was new and sounded different. And people ate it up. The studios caught on, and realized they didn't need musicians any more, they always wanted money. It made more sense to hire nobodies, they were a dime a dozon and they could be made to sound any way they wanted them too. Just like the Boy Bands and Girl Bands (Spice girls, Pussy Cat Dolls)
Okay... so I'm rambling now..., it's been a long day...
The industry feeds us synthetic garbage because it's cheep, makes money and is easily replaced by the next song/artist.
Meanwhile the real artists are doing everything they can to get recognized and struggle to make a living giving us their soul served in a song and doing everything they can to be heard over the sounds of the industry.
That's great, but your second post is a pretty far cry from
"Unskippable" Geico Ad
Downvote for content, not for the inundation of ads....like the Old Spice commercials--I just stopped upvoting them...but never downvoted them...
Downvoting simply for the inundation of Geico ads that I already have to sit through. This was just another way for them to get their message of saving 15% in to my brain.
Resist! Resist!
Baffled by Stupidity: Richard Dawkins
This parody article that came out about Dawkins I found to be hilarious:

It could happen on the spice and I mean it's more than likely if he takes the challenge that people have presented to him (people have been urging him to see the "unknown" loud and clear) that it would alter his perception of reality and how he speaks about these topics completely.

DREAMSTERS TIPPER
I agree with your statement actually. I do not think this is nearly as good as richard or the boards twins. This has a specific intention. Calling DMT a drug is somewhat hilarious though - the dude that made this is definitely conjuring the DMT experience. Whether you agree with that probably depends on the amount of experience you have with THE SPICE which is why I am open to this interpretation.
yea, this is about 1/10th as good as Aphex or Boards.
always a bad sign when someone recommends a track and immediately compares it to drugs

Unicycling Darth Vader upgrades to Flaming Bagpipes
That's filmed right down the street from where I work. I've seen this guy around town a lot. He spices things up so it's fitting he's cycling in front of a Keep Portland Weird sign.
Evolution's shortcoming is Intelligent Design's Downfall
If it were done as a single nerve in a direct route, it would be subject to damage from a jerking head motion. This way, the slack (and bundling) adds protection to individual nerves. And again, it works just fine, in ALL mammals.
Let's coin a new term. How about 'stress relief'?
Another point. The heart is functional before it descends into an expanding chest cavity, taking ancillary nerves along for the ride.
And lastly, the evidence points to incremental phenotypic alterations along with some jumps here and there. The first is indicative of environmental adaptations, with possible genetic manipulations [ID] on occasion.
In fact, we ourselves are on the cusp of being able to alter phenotypic outcomes, by PCR, electrophoresis, and subsequent spicing to alter structures and codes. For our progress at this point, search 'genetic engineering'.
While not proof of prior gene altering to alter phenotypes, it is at least evidence that it can be done, while at this juncture, no substantiating evidence exists for random mutations, HGT, and genetic drift to radically alter body plans. Just for minor quantitative adaptive alterations [pigmentation, bone density, fur and hair content, metabolism rates, and yes, cephalic index, essentially brain size increases].
IOW, the evidence clearly points to both microevolution, a likely 'designed-in' function to aid in survival, as well as ID for radical re-designs, possibly by multiple intelligentsia over vast time. Google MDT for more on that possibility.
