Tafelmusik

One of the only baroque records that I truly love is a collection of tafelmusik by Johann Heinrich Schmeltzer. Back in those days the very wealthy and powerful would hire their favorite composer to make music to dine to. Thus tablemusic became a genre.

Recently we have begun recording some very cool music that I’m hoping will become an album of perfect modern tafelmusik. Somebody’s gotta do it. We have a lot of dinner parties so we’ll be able to take it for a lot of test runs.  Fun. As we go, I’ll put little thirty second bits of it up that FatHead records live on his laptop microphone.

Leave It To Anton

Oh my gosh Anton’s new stuff has fat beats.  He just sent me about half a dozen tracks and it’s amazing.
I’ll ask him if I can put a little bit of it up on here.

There’s one particular track that I think might be the coolest one that any of us or our friends has ever made.

He sings really cool on this stuff too.

Jeez.  Really some unbelievably cool beats here.  Damn.  Leave it to Anton.

Foxes

Alright we’re just about decided on the remixes of Amigos.  It was very difficult since a multitude of genius remixers went ahead and got involved. Maybe we’ll announce on Monday.

Well, Denver again.  That magical land where there’s no traffic jams.  Really.  I’ve never been in traffic in Denver.
Anyhoo check this out.  This is one of the coolest installations I’ve seen anywhere.  This is in the Denver Art Museum.
Heres what it looks like:

And here’s what it does with flash photography:

“Fox Games” by Sandy Skoglund

They’re having an exhibit of 300 rock posters which FatHead and I will be checking out later this month between skiing.

Psychedelic Fish

Check out this new fish that they just found.  I think it was listening to The Dandy Warhols Come Down when they discovered it,  cuz they called it H. Psychedelica.   I can’t imagine what the H is for, though.

FISH

Here’s what the Associated Press says:

Like other frogfish — a subset of anglerfish — H. psychedelica has leglike fins on both sides of its body.

But it has several traits not previously known among frogfish, wrote Pietsch, of the University of Washington.

Each time the fish strike the seabed, for instance, they push off with their fins and expel water from tiny gill openings to jet themselves forward. That and an off-centered tail cause them to bounce around in a bizarre, chaotic manner.

The fish, which has a gelatinous, fist-size body covered with thick folds of skin that protect it from sharp-edged corals, also has a flat face with eyes directed forward, like humans, and a huge, yawning mouth.

Zia thinks the H. is short for HEAVY.

Wine Spectator

Here’s an article that I actually love.  I think it’s short and sweet (like all great journalism) and sounds like me most of the time.

Wine Spectator

I have no idea why this didn’t show up on your Goog-a-lert but whatever.  The world is such a complicated place and I try to be a Luddite whenever possible.
