Hands on heart, this is the Best!

One of my favorite things I've seen lately...since the last video I posted!

Believe it or not, that's really Pharrel Williams in the video (for my 40 & older readers, he's a member of the musical combo "The Neptunes" which is in the hip hop section of your local record store)

The director of the video is Mr. Oizo, who's a genial French man with a perchance for weird electronica. Here's a sample of his music on MySpace:

No need for 3D glasses for this cartoon, folks!

Korla Pandit: "The Grandfather of Exotica"

The trick of holding down the keys with the right hand on the top keyboard so he can play a couple of notes on the lower one is just simply beautiful!



Supposedly he wasn't Indian but African American & he had the very first all music program on American TV in its infancy.

Komiks #4

Went dancing for the first time in ages last week...at the old Liquid on 16th & Capp here in San Fran...now it's been renamed Som (Portuguese for "song" from what I was told) and in between hearing some great new Brazilian dance music (there's a heck of a lot more than just samba out there, folks!), the image for this komik came to my head...

Komiks #3

"Kuya" in Tagalog means Older Brother...just in case y'all didn't know!

Komiks #2

Komiks!

Boys & girls, here's a new thing!
First in a series that I'm now posting entitled "Komiks" which is the Filipino way of spelling "Comics"
...also, if you don't know already, there's a really healthy genre of Filipino comic strips & books with an extensive history and a very vibrant current scene.
Feel free to share if you know of any good titles or artists!
