Busta Rhymes - Gimme Some More

Grimm says...

Sounds like the range of music you like is wider then mine. Not a huge fan of hip-hop but there are a few songs that appeal to me for one reason or another. What caught my attention with this one was the use of the Psycho soundtrack by Bernard Herrmann. Then I found the lyrics (what I could catch) as being funny as well as the video.>> ^L0cky:

I've got a pretty wide musical taste from all shades of rock, electronica, dance and cheesey 80's pop but I still can't find anything in this except monotonous, mediocre drivel.
Sorry Bone, I was probably the guy saying 'turn that shit off' when you were having your happy times

There is a secret message on your digital music player (Blog Entry by dystopianfuturetoday)

Kite Flying Society - Mark Mothersbaugh - Rushmore

OK, so this message is either about lack of productivity or the need to reduce stress in my life.

The Visor - Bernard Herrmann - The Day the Earth Stood Still

Definitely productivity, as I've been putting off making an arrangement of this score for a large ensemble so that I can play some theremin in public.

Mahler: Symphony #4 in G: 3rd movement.

Beautiful inspiring music from a composer that greatly influences me. This is meant as motivation. Write from the heart. Write elegant music that will move people.

Do-Lo-Do-Llo - Doom! Gone, Man, Gone! - Harry Partch

Harry Partch wrote strange, inaccessible and highly original music. This is meant to tell me to be true to my own voice and to not try too hard to please others.

Tim Exile - Microsolutions to megaproblems vol 1

Tim helped develop some music software I just installed in my computer that I haven't used yet. This means get busy, lazy!

Who sent this message? My subconscious mind of course.

I've got the rest of the day free other than a dinner date with my gorgeous wife, so... off to work I go.

Are you ticklish? I'm ticklish right here.

Did anyone notice the theme music is similar to Bernard Herrmann's score for Taxi Driver?

Or is this common knowledge and I've actually discovered nothing? I hate it when that happens.

A Tribute to Some of the Best Movie Soundtracks of All Time

Nebosuke says...

Way too John Williams heavy. Missing out on Danny Elfman, Michael Kamen, and the classic Bernard Herrmann.

While I love John Williams stuff, he liked to take a little too much from the classics (mostly Holst).

You talkin to me?

Farhad2000 says...

Travis Bickle (De Niro) is an alienated, isolated, depressed and sexually frustrated young man of 26 from the Midwest, who says he was a Marine. He suffers from chronic insomnia and consequently takes a job as a nighttime taxi driver in New York City. Travis spends his spare time watching pornography in seedy porn theaters and driving around aimlessly through the shadiest neighborhoods of Manhattan.

In this scene we clearly see how his isolation has reached levels where his only communication is with himself in the mirror.

Taxi Driver is a 1976 American film drama directed by Martin Scorsese and written by Paul Schrader. It is widely considered one of the greatest, but also one of the most controversial films in the history of American cinema and is frequently praised for its strong performances and gritty realism. The film is also notable for making stars out of both its leading actors, Robert De Niro and Jodie Foster; the latter was only thirteen years old when the movie was released. It was also the last film on which the legendary composer Bernard Herrmann (famed for his work with Alfred Hitchcock, especially Psycho) completed work on, and Taxi Driver is dedicated to his memory.
