Inception Messed With My Head

I went to see Inception opening night at the Cinerama Dome. An hour and a half into it they shut down the film due to an A/C problem -right before they go into the 2nd level, bummer! So we finally went last weekend and saw the whole thing again and a half. I may have had a summery alcoholic lemonade beforehand but this movie made me a little dizzy and messed with my head. When I went to the bathroom I accidentally ran into a wall in the hallway. ... :x

Some memorable images:

This song has been haunting me a bit. My friend just confessed he made a totem so that he knows when he's not dreaming. My totem is my cat ring . If he doesn't talk back to me then I'm not dreaming.

Edith Piaf Non Je Ne Regrette Rien

The composer, Hans Zimmer explains his inspiration and process to melt those daunting fog horns into Edith Piaf's Non Je Ne Regrette Rien as they go from one dream level to the next.

Also a little trivia, Marion Cotillard who plays Mal in Inception also starred as Edith Piaf in 2007 film "La Vie en Rose," and took home an Academy Award for Best Actress.

Todd Rundgren vs. Neon Indian vs. The Pineapples

My friend Ryan in Echo Park told me Neon Indian sampled Todd Rundgren's, "Izzat Love?" in their song, Deadbeat Summer. Then I heard Neon Indian sampling The Pineapples' Come On Closer in their song, Psychic Chasms. So Neon Indian likes to sample but they have good taste. Download their whole album below. It's fun.

Gary Low vs. Washed Out

In response to Blue Rondos vs. Old Arcade Fire , my friend, Naheed pointed out that Washed Out 's 'Feel It All Around' is a slowed down version of Gary Low 's 'I Want You'. She's absolutely right! They're both good songs too.

If anyone has any more please email me them or drop tracks into my dropbox link at the top right!

Gary Low I Want You

Feel It All Around

-oh, apparently this isn't news...
-( Washed Out: "Feel It All Around" + Gary Low: "I Want You" on Pitchfork ) but I have both mp3s, enjoy!

It Never Gets Old

My sister says whenever she buys me a present there is usually an age warning label attached to it. Like my Comfy Panda Pillow Pet™ , stick-on mustaches, cat books and stickers. Call me immature, but these things never get old for me. Must be my Japanese. (=•.•=) I love this fun cup trend and I want all of it.

And then the much blogged about, Peter Bruegger: moustache mugs.
Very Charming.

Amazing! Prop. 8 Ruled Unconstitutional!

The Blue Rondos vs. Old Arcade Fire

Everyone's talking about the new Arcade Fire album but I want to talk about the old Arcade Fire and how their song, Haiti's melody is a slowed down version on The Blue Rondos' hit, Little Baby. Yeah, that's pretty much it. Gotta work, post more music later...
