The PIONEER ONE story continues with this new episode 'Alone in the Dark', funded and distributed by YOU. Producers Josh Bernhard and Bracey Smith have built on the success of episodes one and two, released through VODO since June 2010 to an audience of millions.
Bicentennial Curious is a third in line short, from director Jared Varava, following the releases of The Fourth and The Shadow Effect. But Bicentennial Curious differs from the previous creations in that it is not only a short but a masterfully written and directed mockumentary about a - porn industry. The movie centers around Mick Jones (played by Jon Gries - Napoleon Dynamite and Real Genius), a leader of an adult film company who is romanticizing his 'art' through creating, what in his mind is, a 'socially relevant' soft-core pornography - "The fact of a matter is that I don't make movies about wizards and magical forces, I make real films, real films about real tangible things (...) like love, religion, the national deficit."
I fell in love with the series nearly two years ago during one of my lovely commutes to work for one simple reason - it brings you the most amazing variety of music just in time when you can no longer listen to the same songs you had on your iPod since 2000. Each podcast comes with a theme and a selection of sounds (from nearly every genre imaginable, with a slightly greater love for alternative and indie rock) put together by some of the greatest DJs from Northwest.
Jake Shimabukuro strums monster sounds out of the tiny Hawaiian ukulele, as he plays a cover of Queen's "Bohemian Rhapsody." A sensational performance from TED2010 -- it'll send shivers down your spine.
One of FrostClick's favorite artists, Kellee Maize, has just released a single from her upcoming album, Integration. Known around as THE female rapper (try googling it!), her last release "Aligned Archetype" has been downloaded over 300k and has reached #1 on Amazon MP3s downloads.
Hasta Abajo (All The Way Down) adds a new spin to Kellee Maize sound with new reggaeton beats complementing her, as always, thoughtful and well written lyrics. To top all that, the music video is top quality as well.
Nearing it’s fifth year and under the close guidance of Vincent Moon, the Take Away Show already produced hundreds of music video clip sessions with bands like Liars, R.E.M, Arcade Fire, Sigur Rós, Caribou, Architecture in Helsinki, The Shins, White Rabbits, Sufjan Stevens, Tom Jones, Phoenix, Yo La Tengo, and Block Party.
Those simplistic, informal, yet masterfully shot high-production captures of some of today‘s greatest music is made available to everyone each week as an artist or a band is invited by La Blogotheque, a French music blog, to perform.

Burly is a Sean Fournier's side project. "Worthy" has all characteristic qualities of Sean's previous creations - the melancholic voice, clear piano & guitars and carefully crafted lyrics, but with a tiny spin. To hear more from Burly, fans need to 'Like' his songs on Facebook. After a song accumulates a specific number of fans, another is published.
Hope the experiment works, because I would sure love to hear more complex and longer track as the #2 - 44 seconds of "Worthy" is not enough!!!
