Beatles Remasters...Goo goo g'joob.

The news that all of The Beatles albums have been remastered is very exciting.
Haven't heard any of them yet but can't wait to have a listen.

"I Am The Walrus" is one of the most aurally exciting songs of The Beatles , where the trippy lyrics
and music and weird overdubs combine to make one awesome psychedelic listen.

To hear just  this Lennon song remixed for the 21st Century stereo excites me the most.

A lot of later period Beatles songs like  had cool stereo panning tricks.
For example if you pan "Strawberry Fields" to the left you can just hear vocals and drums.

The remasters are being released in mono and stereo versions.

Anyway this is a good review of the Beatles' remasters.

I will post a review when I get a copy of one of these masterpieces.
Most likely the Magical Mystery Tour or Revolver.

John Lennon - ready to go for a psychedelic dive.

Google Barcode

As Google often do, yesterday they changed their Google logo to fit in with an event.
Instead of having an altered Google logo at all they just had a plain barcode at the top of  the Google page.
It was to commemorate the 57th anniversary of the patent of the barcode.

                                                               A barcode, yesterday...

These days we are used to seeing barcodes on virtually every product available.
I remember conspiracy stoners in when I was in college talking about a
Big Brother style future where everyone has a barcode tattoo.

Microchip tracking is currently the latest Big Brother fear .
Some parents want their children to have a chip
inserted into them for safety.

Banned on Myspace?

So a few weeks ago on my Rentboy myspace music page,

I put up the title "Rape Me" (a Nirvana song) which actually played the

"Stuck In The Middle With You" MP3 by Bob Dylan.

At the time I thought this rather humorous lark.
Hmm.

Shortly after I received a copyright infringement notice from Myspace

which stopped the song, and then completed their online copyright education form.

I thought that would be the last of it but a check yesterday showed that

Myspace have stopped me from having any tracks on my Rentboy music page.

I have written to them this morning.

No reply yet.

Interesting to see what happens, I might have to start again and lose

my 503 myspace "friends"

Hope not!

P.S


Half an hour ago, my songs were put back up on Myspace. 
Thank god for that.

Just found the German language version on Youtube.

Enjoy.

Aussies Should Give Muslims A Chance !

"There is currently a great deal of interest in, and misunderstanding about, Australia’s Muslim communities. Muslim Australians are not a homogenous group as some media reports might lead us to believe, but make up a small, culturally diverse section of Australian society.

Over a third (36 per cent) of Muslim Australians are Australian-born, while those who have arrived here as immigrants come from all over the world—from Lebanon and Turkey to Bangladesh and Fiji. Some come from countries where women wear a burqa or a veil, most do not. And despite concerns expressed by some, many others argue that the vast majority of Muslim Australians see no conflict of loyalty between Islam and Australian citizenship."

It's usually the most opened minded Countries that get the most cake!

Courtney Is A Class Act...

As I mentioned earlier on, which none of you geeks probably read,
I witnessed Courtney play the other weekend.

She is on the Myspace - she's gonna be huge.

Vote for her on Triple J Unearthed.

Courtney's music reminds me of a Strawberry Milkshake.

You'll love it.
