Commercial Breaks And Beats
July 21, 2004

While trying to source the music for the current BMW ad on British TV [and possibly elsewhere?] I came across commercialbreaksandbeats.co.uk, which I believe is something to do with ninjatune... Though I wouldn't swear to it... Anyway the tune is either by the Prodigy or Amon Tobin... I didn't check to see what model was actually being advertised... It appears that the latest BMWs have the ability to plug your i-Pod into the dash and control it via the steering wheel or thereabouts, which is pretty nifty!

Been a bit quiet on the blog front due to the unfortunate combination of drinking too much and being on a dreadfully boring SQL admin course. Not both at the same time I might add, just a BBQ at Kev's that lasted all night, which I might tell you about when I can remember anything about it and a hangover that lasted for days...

Anyway, not had time to find much new material, although Kev and I finished the Mr Timothy remix but I don't think I'll have time to get it to a suitable size to put up here until I return from holiday in a week... But at least I might get to finish Quicksilver at last, as well as some of the other books that have been stacking up... Decided on taking Vernon God Little and e-topia as well. That should do me!

A nice link, via Things is the Diary Of A Record at askingfortrouble.org.

Need to book tickets for the complicite adaptation of Haruki Murakami's The Elephant Vanishes due at The Barbican. Not because I have read the short stories or have any desire to see a play with subtitles [it's in Japanese] but because the production looks out of this world.

Bill Morrison's experimental feature Decasia is composed entirely of decaying, nitrate-based archival footage which seems to melt, burn, drip and deteriorate.. and is also now available on DVD.
