More electronic, but this all adds to the interest level.

"Previously known as the 21st Birthday Album, this is a gorgeous and goofy compilation of 45 fun and experimental electronic tone poems made for radio and TV from 1958 to 1979, some from the days when the music department only allowed the Workshop to exist by pretending electronic music wasn't music (just as Forbidden Planet was scored with "electronic tonalities"). So since no one was being taken seriously, the composers could even be women, of whom Delia Derbyshire has recently gained acclaim (in electronic-music geek circles; if you're not in one, it's not too late to join!). The longest track, 'A Whisper from Space', is 2:11; so if something doesn't grab you, wait a minute. If only all records could be this varied and entertaining. Derbyshire's immortal Dr. Who theme isn't even necessarily the best track. "

"A novel based on the life of Nikola Tesla, Lighting is a tale about the invention of just about every electronic device we use today and the psychic cost of genius."

"Really like this record. Ambient, electronic, but also very musical. I listened to this track a lot while I was over in L.A. at the end of 2017 shooting the cover photo for my new album."

"This album contains four of the most-played songs on our iTunes, so we definitely have gotten a lot out of it! It’s a beautifully crafted album that bridges the gap between electronic music and songwriting so perfectly."

The haunting, melancholic voice of Thom Yorke
Listening to Thom Yorke's melodious voice on a record player literally sends shivers down your spine. The electronic moans of "Subterranean Homesick Alien" and "Karma Police" makes grown men weep. This is literally what you get.

This novel, told almost entirely through the fictionalized postings to an Internet newsgroup and email correspondence, is probably the first electronic epistolary novel ever written. You can read my full review here https://tcl-bookreviews.com/2015/03/28/burning-and-building-bridges/

Uncut Gems (2019)
2019 | Comedy, Crime, Drama

"A hyper-jittery assault of a movie, constant anxiety and tension, pulsating with a wall-to-wall, stress-inducing electronic score that leaves not a second to catch your breath. And for Sandler’s performance of Howard Ratner, a heartbreaking mess of a human being."
