Welcome to LA

Fri, 11 Dec 2009 15:26:00 -0500

Just landed in LA and was welcomed with a 15 inch MacBook Pro to the head. When I told the oblivious passenger behind me that she should watch it when opening overhead compartments (isn’t this common sense?), she told me I should be more careful stowing my laptop. No apology. Nothing. Seriously?!?!?

Paramount to Spend $1M Annually on Microbudget Films - ComingSoon.net

Paramount to Spend $1M Annually on Microbudget Films - ComingSoon.net:

ronenreblogs:

Variety says that Paramount is launching an initiative that will spend $1 million annually to develop and produce microbudget films following the success of Paranormal Activity, which cost only $15,000 to make and has earned over $100 million domestically. The plan is designed to place between 10 and 20 projects in development by the end of next year, with no individual budget exceeding $100,000. Paramount Film Group president Adam Goodman says the funds, which will come out of the studio’s overall production budget, will be targeted at both unknowns and established filmmakers, with the goal of increasing the studio’s ability to find new voices and ideas.

Excellent. Finally. This is the best decision ever.

Another piece by Ólafur Arnalds. Titled “3055.”

I just discovered him today and I’m blown away.

“Ólafur Arnalds (born 1986) is a multi-instrumentalist and producer from Mosfellsbær, Iceland. ^[1]

Arnalds was a drummer of hardcore/metal bands Fighting Shit and Celestine as well as a other bands. He also contributed banjo, guitar and piano for in his friend’s solo project “My Summer as a Salvation Soldier”.

In 2004, Arnalds composed and recorded the intro and two outros for tracks on the album Antigone (album) by German metal band Heaven Shall Burn. He has also composed string arrangements for the English band 65daysofstatic.

On October 12, 2007, Arnalds’ first solo album Eulogy for Evolution was released. It was followed by the EP Variations of Static in 2008. In the same year, Arnalds toured with Sigur Rós. He is also reported to have sold out The Barbican Hall in London.^[1]

In April 2009 Arnalds composed and released a track daily for seven days instantly making each track available within 24 hours from http://foundsongs.erasedtapes.com The collection of tracks was entitled Found Songs. The first track was released on Monday April 13th.

Ólafur Arnalds mixes strings and piano with loops and edgy beats crossing-over from classical to pop.”

YEAH, HE WAS BORN IN 1986, FML!

Erla’s Waltz - Ólafur Arnalds

Heard this playing in my local record store today. Beautiful. Wasn’t until I got home and searched the net that I discovered how the music was released. What I’m trying to say is: It’s no gimmick.

“In April 2009, Iceland’s neo-classical export Ólafur Arnalds created the 7-song series ‘Found Songs’ – recording a song a day for 7 days and instantly making each track available via Twitter. With artwork contributions from fans via Flickr, this modern release awakens memories of a tradition that seemed lost in the digital age we live in.”
