Looking into the past...


Many of you know (or should know) of Owen Pallett, a.k.a. Final Fantasy. I'm going to be seeing him VERY soon (and will report back here) at the Lakeshore Theater and am using this blog to my own advantage. Owen, at the age of 13, scored four tunes for a videogame, Traffic Department 2192. I haven't listened to them yet and I need to direct link them to download. Here.

All MIDIs:

Vulture

Intro 2

Death

Teams are awesome!

The fact that there are three posts in as many months here tells me that perhaps I could use some help. Thus we are going in a (new?) direction. We shall be joined by enigmatic poet/musician/whatever dude Guadalcanal (NOT to be confused with 80's band Guadalcanal Diary).

Basically he posts give or take every day with one song and a poem to describe. Awesome, no? I will be the lists/reviews man, and will proudly report on (at least) the Pitchfork Music Festival day two, Final Fantasy @ the Lakeshore theater AND Wolf Parade @ Metro day one.


P.S.
(If anyone knows how to do anything with templates and header images, please help me.)
