Funny and melancholy, Karen O's giggling animal imitation is a nice offset against the sad melody.

Flaming Lips - "The Great Gig in the Sky" (The Flaming Lips and Stardeath and White Dwarfs with Henry Rollins and Peaches Doing The Dark Side of the Moon)
(I actually never posted something concerning Pink Floyd?!)
The whole album sounds pretty true to the original. This song in particular has a bit of a modern bite to it.

Philip Glass - "Rework_"
,Remixes.
- Music in 12 parts: very electronic, Ratatat-ish. Done by somebody called "My Great Ghost"
- "Alight Spiral Snip" done by Dan Daecon. Very Philip Glass' "music with changing parts"
- Beck: "NYC 73-78" is kinda hypnotic at some point.
- Jóhann Jóhannsson - "Protest remix", with voices and beat. nice.
- Peter Broderick - "Island remix"... hypnotizing.. Good!

Scott Walker - "Bish Bosch"
Strange, half-electronic, shaking music. A high kind of singing, wavering, a bit like Anthony, then suddenly it explodes with weird sounds and loops.
Not exactly to my liking.

Piet Meeuse - "Het kraaien van de haan"
Aardig concept van een tijdsreiziger die terugkeert naar het jaar 0 - vlak erna - Jezus ontmoet en ongewild de Judas rol toegespeeld krijgt.
Echter:
Echter:
- taalgebruik van de karakters was prut: "Judas! Godverdomme dat had ik weer". Overigens is het gebruik van godverdomme al vreemd.
- omschrijvingen waren niet goed, metaforen hinkten
- de logica van het verhaal, de innerlogica van de karakters klopte niet. Er werd te gemakkelijk naar het bijbelverhaal toegeschreven, teveel wil gesuggereerd terwijl die er niet was, zonder de woede slechts een pion te zijn.
