I’ve been listening to so much indie rock and indie electronic music in the past few months that coming back to some trance and house is simply euphoric.
“Choose life… But why would I want to do a thing like that? I chose not to choose life. I chose somethin’ else. And the reasons? There are no reasons. Who needs reasons when you’ve got heroin?” - Mark “Rent-boy” Renton, Trainspotting
“You’re developing a taste for it - the violating, the voyeurism… it’s definitely you.” - Cobb, Following
”I have to believe in a world outside my own mind. I have to believe that my actions still have meaning, even if I can’t remember them. I have to believe that when my eyes are closed, the world’s still there. Do I believe the world’s still there? Is it still out there?… Yeah. We all need mirrors to remind ourselves who we are. I’m no different.” - Leonard Shelby, Memento
I’ve missed out on a lot of movies. It was mainly because, when I came to America, my parents had to focus on work and getting settled, so movies were never a priority. So now I’m spending my time going through a few of the essentials. I’d give a little review, but all the movies I’m gonna be watching, you’ve probably already seen. If you haven’t though, it’s a nice departure from the classic film noir style with a twist, a memory loss “condition,” plus a chronological conundrum that might leave your head spinning. Though resolution does come at the end, it forces you to create your own theory of what exactly happened. Definitely a good watch if you’re the puzzle-solving type and you like a movie that is going to make you think. I’m still considering all the possibilities.
If you’re going to deny people their rights and respect simply because of a choice that they make or a lifestyle that they follow, then you are an idiot. Murderers, rapists, and other criminals all get rights. No matter how despicable their crime, they get the right to due process, trial by jury, no cruel or unusual punishment, and all of the constitutional rights that apply to everybody else. Criminals are given rights, but when somebody reveals a contrasting sexual orientation or religion, they are denied rights and treated with disrespect, downgraded even below the level of criminals. It is, in essence, subjective: because this concept starkly contrasts with your own ideologies, you think that it’s wrong. Murder and rape can also be considered wrong, but the people who commit these still retain their rights. So why don’t we just get over this crap and give the LGBT community and people belonging to religions other than Christianity (and no religion for that matter) the rights and respect that they deserve as human beings? It’s no enigma that needs solving, it’s just a problem that needs resolving, a fixation that we must remove.
People are people so why should it be
You and I should get along so awfully
Although I dislike most Dubstep, here is a nice post by my friend Mariana comparing it to Jazz in both musical and social aspects. Check it out!
The French might suck at pretty much everything, but they’ll always have the edge in electronic music.
College - The Light of Your Dress
I think I’m in love. I just now discovered this band after a friend recommended to me a while back, and I feel…amazing. This project beautifully captures the vibe of the 80’s. Oh the glorious synths. Definitely including College in a BSP post soon as I go through a few of their albums.
