"This was the point where Steve Miller set up his own studio and started recording in his own time. He lost himself in that process. I love his take on music – it's his own brand of psychedelia. It's very blissful on one hand, very groovy on the other. He created his own musical world and almost ends up referencing himself rather than taking influences from other people. I love it when an artist has a feedback loop to their own music. The first track, 'Song For Our Ancestors', is the one for me. It's soundtrack-y, incredibly evocative. It starts with a giant foghorn and this beautiful tremolo guitar that seems to emerge from the mists. Again, it's taking you somewhere, imagining this other world, albeit rooted in history rather than just imagination."

"This was a huge album amongst me and my friends. It was kind of the soundtrack to ten years of my life. From high school, through uni and then right out of uni was all soundtracked by that record really. It was the Bible in terms of hip-hop. It was one of the first introductions to hip-hop of mainstream appeal. It was so full of bangers. It's overly long and the production… well, it's Dre, isn't it? Anything from it is so ingrained in my generation. I'm always happy to hear this album which I think is the true sign of a good album. Although I wouldn't be so pleased to hear Kid A, because it doesn't have that same mood. 2001 has that 'all moods covered' thing going on."

Russian madness
I have to admit I’m a little disappointed in this series of Peaky Blinders. Whilst it’s as violent as ever, the storyline appears to have gone a little off the rails. The whole plot regarding the Russians is just completely bonkers and rather confusing, and by the end of the series the Russians had become a massive irritation and I couldn’t wait to see the back of them. Don’t get me wrong, the rest of the series was still rather good. A cracking soundtrack as always and some great performances, along with a pretty shocking ending. A great cameo from Paddy Considine and it was nice to see Tom Hardy back again, it’s just a shame the ridiculous Russian storyline had to get in the way.

Blazing Minds (92 KP) rated Black Panther (2018) in Movies

Black Panther (2018)
Black Panther (2018)
2018 | Action, Drama, Sci-Fi
The last time we saw Black Panther was in Captain America: Civil War, when we were introduced to the character and now we finally have the character-based movie that brings us more about the new King of Wakanda and his families history, we also get to see Wakanda and it is pretty stunning in RealD 3D.

It seems that Marvel has certainly found the key to making superhero movies that just look so great and Black Panther is no exception to their continued success, the movie looks great, it has a superb cast, the soundtrack is superb and the action is all in the places it needs to be, oh and the 3D is done in such a way that it has depth without any of those in your face moments.
