Here’s a theme song I made for an animation thing I’m working on. It’s not going to be used because I made it and everything before I realized it was a huge rip-off of the nockFORCE theme song. Oh well.
Max: YOUR QUEST:
go through “damn it feels good to be a gangsta”
replace “gangsta” with “panda”
Ethan: hahaha
Max: THIS IS YOUR QUEST
And then he actually did it.

Get Away From Me - Best Fwends
Mondays can be hard. Let Best Fwends lift your spirits and help you on your way.
(video by KC Green)
There used to be a record store in my town that featured a box of free CDs— promotional advances, usually, that the management had no need or desire for. The albums in the bin were, as was to be expected, of varying degrees of quality, but out of the middling muck of mediocrity there occasionally shone a gem, either amazing (The Saps) or terrible (bace135), both of which I coveted equally. I’m not going to lie— that box was the primary reason I went to that store, and probably didn’t help the conditions that led it to close in March of last year.
The feeling I get now browsing netlabels is the same feeling I got browsing that box. I’d known about netlabels— I’ve downloaded pretty much everything on Quote Unquote— but up until yesterday I had no idea of the number. There’s so much content that it’s overwhelming— I downloaded almost two gigs worth yesterday before I got a hold of myself.
I can’t make my mind up about Sky Barstow’s It’s Circular, one of the first albums I found, but I’m pretty sure this particular song is rad, evoking both Justice and recent Of Montreal (without all the sexual-fake-funk-dickery). It’s not quite one of the gems I’m bent with finding, but it’s fun and it’s free so why the hell not.

Stillness Is The Move - Dirty Projectors
This video is a little bland (by which I mean that nobody’s head ignites), but I’ve been listening to Bitte Orca near-nonstop and I wanted to switch things up from this post-mp3, post-another-mp3, repeat thing we’ve got going here. Maybe I’ll post some album art I like for a change! That would be pretty crazy.

A Bird in Hand - Owen
Do suburbs get you down? Does this neat little domestic life have you throwing up? Are you filled with teenage angst and other things like that? Do I care? Who cares? Everything is black, maaannn, life is so pointless.
In any event, good emo from the 90’s is good. Listen to Owen, American Football, Saves the Day, other things.
It’s really good. And this song makes me feel alive.
