The Married Monk - "Bird on board" (The Belgian Kick)

Came across this band because of member Etienne Jaumet.

This song is parlando, long stretches of music with a woman's voice half-speaking half-whispering. Quite cool.

Oldboy (2003)

Have I ever seen it? Cannot remember. Hard, impressive film. Should watch it again, but not too soon.

Paranoia (2014)

Ugh. Not a good cyber thriller, not a good thriller, not a good anything.

the Family Crest - "Beneath the Brine"

Amazing song, but mostly because of the Coachella clip

Guardians of the Galaxy

Fun film. Good combination of 80's with scifi. They must've really considered how to put these together.

Under the skin

Scarlet Johannsen.. strange movie. Alien in Scotland. She seduces men. Amazing scenes where they walk into ink black water and drown while she is walking on the water without a ripple.

There is a story idea there.

Ending not too strong, but impressive how this movie was made without an obvious Hollywood touch.

Hoffmaestro - "Hoffmaestro"

Crazy punky Swedish "skank-a-troncpunkadelica"

Crazy fun. Good stuffs.

Poppy Ackroyd - "Feathers"

Instrumental, violins, strings and piano.

A bit light. Quite good.

Pye Corner Audio - "Black Mill Tapes vol 1"

Good electronic soundscapes.

Flug 8 - "Mr. Ito"

Strange electro music with whoob whoob effects. Good for writing? Who knows.

Forbrydelsen (The Killing)

Now in season 3. Season 1 was cool but a bit too long with 20 episodes. Season 2 was great with only 10, kept the pace and us on the edge of our seat. Three seems just as promising.

Interstellar (2014)

First half was impressive and beautiful, with some beautifully harsh moments, both in acting as well as in music and scenes.

The part where he leaves her behind, to fall into the event horizon... well, the fact he does so, is fine. It would make for a good ending (his daughter always angry even though he saved humanity, &etc). But that tesseract 5D part? The ending? Fleb flep.

Man From The South - "Paeonia"

singer-songwriter, but darker, sad. Minor chords.

This is his second album. Should look for his first as well. Pretty bloody beautiful.

Mike Oldfield - "Nuclear"

A strange search into MSG trailers and teasers brought this forth... I kinda like it.

Good ol' Snake. Still making it happen.

Garbage - "Not Your Kind Of People"

Have I heard this before? I doubt it. Definitely the kind of song I'd remember.

Theatrical. Quite like it.

Pauw - EP

"Abyss" is pretty cool. Bit mystical.
