I’m Having A Level 42 Flashback

Syncopation = CHECK
Tight Bass and Drum = CHECK
80′s Pop Influence = CHECK
Justin Bieber Song = WTF?!?

Ok, this cover is just all kinds of awesome. I’m having flashbacks of Swing Out Sister or Level 42 meets Return to Forever and I’m listening to a Bieber song?

“So What” – Animated Sheet Music

I can’t begin to tell you how much this video makes my day week month… well you get the idea. The following video is an animation of sheet music to Miles Davis’ “So What”, which is quite possibly my favorite song of all time.

I transcribed Davis’ solo in high school and to see it come to life like this is absolutely thrilling. Even if you can’t read music, the song just comes to life visually. I hope you enjoy it.

Trailers apple

Two words. Fincher. Reznor. The subject matter in the first book is very dark and if there are two people that work with that subject matter very well, it’s these two.

I am so there.

Update: Sony Pictures can’t seem to get their act together with the embed, so I’ve swapped it out with an image and a link to Apple Trailers. Just watched the trailer in 1080p and I’ve got chills.
