COMPOSER

Just finished the book "Strange Things Happen: A Life with The Police, Polo, and Pygmies" by Stewart Copeland. I Highly recommend the audio version which is read by Stewart himself. It is one of the best books I have heard in a long time. Not only is Stewart very entertaining as a reader of his story but the stories are amazing. You also get a real look inside a reality show (Stewart was the Judge on one) a Super Tour, and life with Pygmies. (yes, Pygmies..) Not to mention his very astute writings and observations about being a film composer. I would recommend book to budding film composers on this basis alone. While this is not the *focus* of the book, it is what he has been doing professionally for the last several years. Yep, this guy has lived a little. Guaranteed Fun!

Hi Guys, I have been looking forward to Air's new release called "Love 2". I am downloading it now...after listening to the previews, I hear alot of similarities to Talkie Walkie and Pocket Symphony and also hear some new textures. It will be fun to see how this one is received. I will post more impressions soon but would love to hear from any of you that have given it a listen all the way through. If you love it, whaddayalove? Don't like it? I would like to hear about that too. Pretty mixed reviews on itunes... Here is the itunes link (which has some extra material and a short documentary) http://newsletter.emimusic.com/r/?id=hcbd8a8b,7f46376,8065531 Here is the Amazon link for a few less bucks... http://www.amazon.com/Love-2/dp/B002P4663Y/ref=dm_cd_album_bb?ie=UTF8&qid=1254506155&sr=1-1 What do you think?
