In a surreal turn of events, one of my favorite musicians of all time, @maxtundra.com, has remixed a song by my band Gemma. It came out amazingly, and I felt compelled to create a music video for it (learning TouchDesigner along the way). Please check it out! youtu.be/SDCCwS_7S-E?...

Feel grateful for older brothers who introduced me to the Stone Roses at a young age (maybe rare for an American?). Magical band, but the basslines really made it for me. Too many great ones to name. And he played on XTRMNTR?! RIP Mani youtu.be/VEOEIo0DxgM?...

Ok, I want all the actors to look exactly like me, and the script to include references to what I had for breakfast and inside jokes I share with my wife. That will be, at last, true cinema (i.e., something to have on in the background while I look at my phone).
Jeff Yang@originalsp.in · 11mo agoDavid and Larry Ellisons’ sloptastic vision for Hollywood is coming into focus: “Paramount has reportedly signed a $200M+ multiyear deal for Higgsfield AI to use mass-use Popcorn AI model that ingests dailies and script notes, then outputs regional cuts: new leads, alternate jokes, revised endings”
RIP D’Angelo. One of the greatest musicians of my lifetime, a heartbreaking loss. He was a genius, and as his interviews in the Sly Stone doc express, he paid a price for putting his art into the world. Eternally grateful for that. Greatest album closer of all time? Tears youtu.be/MTAnBM0ZdVI?...

Man, I love Jaws. Noticing how great the first scene with the mayor is: static camera, just guys talking, but because it's on a ferry, you get this dynamic moving background. Smart stuff!

The devil, or often "diablo", is consistently associated with spicy foods. I think this is misguided. The devil's food would be flavorless, and certainly wouldn't jack up your endorphins like a nice habanero hot sauce!
For years, the public has called them "fake artists." But internally at Spotify, the program has a name: Perfect Fit Content.

Is there any way to pre-schedule YouTube comments? I've got to get "who's listening to this in 2025?" on several thousand songs at midnight on new year's day.
I've played guitar for a long time, and I think I understand how to make most sounds on it. Seeing Raphael Roginski was magical to me, no idea how he does it. Sounds like 3 people, so much nuance. Bewildering and inspiring
