Explosions In The Sky
Glorious, glorious music! That’s what I heard last night. And not a vocal to be heard! This was the band’s first visit to Australian shores and I was very surprised to see so many last.fm’ers adding themselves to this gig only because I didn’t think the band was overly popular here. Fuck was I wrong. A sold out show in no time and seeing them perform live, it all started to make sense. Amazing musicians creating beautiful and momentum-building epic music that surpasses the CD experience. I have spent many years listening to their lush sounds whilst designing and they got me through many late night hard slogs. Eluvium was the perfect support too. Amazing what one man can do with a laptop, pedals and a guitar. Let’s keep our fingers crossed both these acts return to our shores in the near future and inspire a whole new generation.

Jaden Smith is the new Karate Kid
I LOVE the first film so this is sacrilege. Plus Jaden is only 10 years old! Why not just make a different movie altogether? Via comingsoon.

Wall-E
Ultimately charming and heart-warming Pixar effort is a sheer delight from start to finish. Homage's to 2001, E.T and all your favourite childhood Sci-Fi movies are plentiful and just to realise so much emotion from an animated robot that hardly talks throughout the entire movie is a feat in itself. The Blu-ray version will be stunning!50 Amazing Gig Posters
