In Memoriam – The Prodigy’s Keith Flint (1969 – 2019)
I woke up this morning to find that Keith Flint, vocalist and hype man for The Prodigy passed away. I’m in shock, since they were currently doing a U.S. tour. Flint was only 49. At the time of this writing, no word is released on how he died. The 1990’s were an amazing time for electronic music. You had bands like Orbital, The Crystal Method, The Chemical Brothers, Fluke, Leftfield, Psykosonik, Juno Reactor and Underworld....
Music: “Future Club” by Pertubator
I woke up this morning to find that Bo Burnham’s Eighth Grade won Best Original Screenplay at the Writer’s Guild of America Awards. I caught the film a few weeks ago on Amazon Prime, and it definitely deserved the Award. In celebration, we’re queuing up Pertubator’s “Future Club” off of their 2014 album “Dangerous Days”. Future Club is the kind of song you listen to when driving through...
Trailer: Fast and Furious Presents: Hobbs & Shaw
Dwayne Johnson made some waves when he announced a spinoff to the Fast and Furious franchise that would focus on his one time villian/now hero, Luke Hobbs.

Music: Paradise Circus (Gui Boratto Remix) by Massive Attack
This weekend was about playing catch up. I’ve been doing great with my Day Job, but fell behind with some of the school work for the semester. I promised myself to avoid writing anything until everything’s done, but this song’s been inspirational in getting motivated. Paradise Circus is a well known song from Britian’s Trip-Hop group Massive Attack and was done in collaboration with Mazzy Star’s Hope...
Music: Make the Move (by Kenny Loggins)
I can’t believe I finally found this song. I’ve been passively searching for it over time, figuring that the beginning of Kenny Loggins’ “Make the Move” was maybe a variant of the original Caddyshack song, “I’m Alright”. It turns out that the opening melody is part of a different song. I love the way this starts. It’s the kind of ‘wake me up’ song I save for good...
