Deep And Darkly... Amen
February 22, 2006

Just signed up to Odeo and been listening to Ohh, shit, nobody likes deep house mixed by Milovanov - A deep and funky Ableton session. I know some DJ types could get themselves on here!

Boing Boing have unearthed some good links... This new Scanner Darkly clip. I've been waiting ages for this to be released. can't be long now. A link to this essay, about MySpace, by Danah Boyd "Why Youth Heart MySpace".

Another movie clip... Nate Harrison's Can I Get An Amen? A 2004 recording on acetate, turntable and PA system is an audio installation that unfolds a critical perspective of perhaps the most sampled drum beat in the history of recorded music, the Amen Break. It begins with the pop track Amen Brother by 60's soul band The Winstons, and traces the transformation of their drum solo from its original context as part of a 'B' side vinyl single into its use as a key aural ingredient in contemporary cultural expression. The history of the Amen Break is the history of Hip-Hop and Drum And Bass.

Continuing a movie theme, the Internet Archive has a whole host of downloadable Open Source movies, including Fritz Lang's Metropolis.
