Delays In Communication.


It's been a few weeks since I've had the time to update this. Two weeks ago I was building houses in Bay St. Louis and last week's theme was "catch up on school work." Heard a new (at least for my ears) Riot In Belgium remix. They took an already amazing Yelle song, added sick beats and a general badassness to it and called it theirs.

I love music.

Grab the track here.

Will update again later.

The Rush of Falling.


This week has been hard, but at the end of every low, there is a high. This picture and the track attached have been my high. I took neither the picture nor made the song, but they feel and sound just as if they were flowing out of my days, out of my conscious. Hope you enjoy!

First Video.


JEM 336 - Project 1 from Brandon Ball on Vimeo.

Another day, another experience.


Today has been crazy. Photography, video production, learning how to make bruschetta in Italian class, managing to park in at least two off-limit spots and not get a ticket. Haha, anyway, new Someone Still Loves You Boris Yeltsin and Cloud Cult cds are
amazing.

The first, by SSLYBY, is just ridiculous. Start to finish, it is polished, substantial and warm. The catchy riffs and lyrics remind me that there are still records that you can listen through without stopping. Fantastic. The song attached, Glue Girls, is off their upcoming second cd Pershing and is as energetic and pop-y as they come, but makes me want to dance. (Track courtesy of Captain's Dead)

Grab the track here.

The second, by Cloud Cult is a dreamy soundscape of words and noise. Theirs are the kind of tracks you could lose yourself in. Check them out.

Off to the library to finish up the editing on our second video project.
