If you're looking for a fun Halloween film, and don't mind it being aimed at a younger age bracket, I can still thoroughly recommend 'Night of the Zoopocalypse'!

Just posted a review of it:

This has a kind of Steve Reich / Tubular Bells sound that I like, but to be honest, in contrast to the track title, I stop around two-thirds of the way into it.

And finally, I got a bunch of tunes from a series of torrented collections, "Rare hits of the 80s". More obscure than hits. I should go back and check those. I never finished downloading the full set. (There were a lot.)
And at some point I visited a friend of mine on the west coast, and he let me copy a whole bunch of his music! It would take me over five years to build up the courage to actually listen and sort through it. I think they were originally on his Zune.
In Winnipeg, after becoming friends with the local fandom, we tried trading a USB drive between ourselves for a music exchange, but it didn't get far.
And it's all archived online!

(The highlighted episodes are better.)

When was the last time you heard a retro show play Belouis Some's "Imagination"? Exactly. Thank you, Ron!
Musical reflections, part seven. My next source of finding new music was Ron Gerber's "Crap from the Past" show on KFAI out of Minneapolis. He's an encyclopedia of pop music, good and bad, and it's been a great way to rediscover past tunes.
Originally I was going to post the Spider-Man theme, but I'm not supporting Di$ney at the moment.

The president of Venezuela is an unusual musical inspiration, but I kind of like it.

I've also been trying to find a decent online copy of an amusing and lightly dirty song from 2003, "Threeway rendezvous" by The Wet Spots, but instead of the CD version there's only two stage videos with crappy audio. :-(
For a couple of years, I lived in the neighbourhood this song is about!

Something nice if the opposite happens, if someone tries to pay using an obnoxiously large amount of coinage, the Currency Act places upper limits on the amounts you can accept as legal tender.
Does the Amiga episode need chapter markers? It's all mildly interesting in comparison, and I'm not sure where the major beats are...
