All I had was a melody and an image of someone lamenting something. Walking around through my neighborhood, with all of the Christmas lights, I had this song in my head that I just could not place. The only thing I did know was a…
Mention the name Ubisoft to most people, and most responses are about their videogames. Assassin’s Creed, Tom Clancy’s Rainbow Six, and my personal favorite, Tom Clancy’s The Division. Ubisoft also has a movie production arm to it, along with an effects division called Hybride. With…
Off the White Album comes this classic from The Beatles. Out of habit, I always sing or hum this song to myself at least once on my birthday. Here’s to having made it another year around the sun! Enjoy! You say it’s your birthday…
This one takes me back to wandering the electronic music section of the Virgin Megastore Times Square, listening to random albums.. For me, the repetitive nature of electronic music helps me to relax and focus. Orbital’s Halcyon and On and On is a classic, having…
Hello! It’s been a while, hasn’t it? I’ll get into the particulars of where I’ve been in another post, but I wanted to share something. I found out from the Scary Social Live Tweet group that today is Tommy Lee Wallace’s birthday. For the past…
I woke up this morning and found out that legendary composer and Academy Award Winner Ennio Morricone has passed away at the age of 91. Unfortunately, I haven’t the knowledge to fully give Morricone the justice he deserves. He was known mostly for his scores…

Vide cor Meum (See My Heart) is a song that I normally associate with Ridley Scott’s 2005 epic, Kingdom of Heaven. The song is played after the death of the King (Edward Norton) in that song. What I didn’t realize, however, is that the song’s…
There are three things about Led Zeppelin’s “Fool in the Rain” that come to mind when I think about it. One, it sounds like it should be a Billy Joel song. Two, it’s a song that Zeppelin never had the chance to play live, which…
I stumbled into White Wolf’s game, Vampire: The Masquerade completely by accident. A fan of vampires, I joined a number of IRC (Internet Relay Chat, in those archaic internet days of the mid 90s) chat rooms. Someone directed me to a gaming store in Manhattan…
Today is World Goth Day, and as such, I thought I’d add a song. My go to song is one that I would have never known about were it not for Edgar Wright. “This Corrosion”, by The Sisters of Mercy came out back around 1985,…
Basketball’s not exactly my sport. I’ve always been a fan of Hockey, but I understand that I’m not the target audience for Space Jam – A New Legacy. Watching the movie, I get the feeling that Warner Bros. finally figured out just how large it…
