There seriously needs to be a better way to keep track of this series. The only option is apparently to bookmark the "hip-hop-family-tree" tag and checking it manually (subscribing to boing boing's RSS would give me all the other stuff from the site I don't want). I guess I'll just wait for the collected version as an e-book.

Happy birthday!

I hope you have a great day.

Wait a sec. I don't recall...

this should be the Ouya bootup jingle

Happy birthday!

That was the Lazarus Pit?

Happy birthday!

I also found it amusing that a key scene showing Batman's failure features a tablet. I guess he needs to update his tech some more.

Happy birthday!

I lolled at how the distant shots of Gotham look like a photoshopped mashup of Manhattan and Chicago. Also I like how Catwoman's cat-ears rotate down to become goggles. Storywise, I thought the film brought together the elements of the previous films rather well. The only problem with doing this is that it also brought back the layers-upon-layers-of-deception style of plotting that I didn't much like from Batman Begins.

Listen to it here: http://youtu.be/bcOpZqY5u3s So I've been doing podcasts where I gather sampled clips and make new things out of them. This time I reconstructed "Christmas Wrapping" by The Waitresses so that it would resemble the Treasure Trove Cove theme from Banjo-Kazooie. For added fun I put in some smaller elements from other songs - check if you can spot them. For more info on The Duosis Mixtapes podcast, check out my SoundCloud.

So, I got back from watching it, and I liked it. How about you? Some thoughts: (SPOILS) One of the things I loved about it is that it finally explains why there are convienient cranes everywhere to swing on. Spider-Karma, bro. I'm not sure I can accept the rebooted Aunt May. No matter how old Sally Field is, she's still Sally Field.

I wrote about the recent goings on in my latest blog post: http://blog.jhsounds.com/2012/06/in-sensual-way.html

Every track in Echochrome.

I did a writeup of the most recent bracket, if you're into that kind of thing. http://blog.jhsounds.com/2012/06/this-is-what-happened.html

Happy birthday!

I was gonna say "happy birthday" but then Arrow took me on his knee. What?

Happy birthday!

http://soundcloud.com/jhsounds/sets/the-vocals-volume-one I noticed a lot of vocal compo tracks I've done have similar themes and tone, so here's more or less a definitive track list for an album-like experience.

Hah, I'm sure there will be a scene where he falls into an iPhone and gets pelted by angry birds.

Gamer kids are now the theater-going adults.

Just listened to this and it is funtastic. It was also nice meeting Sam at Blip Festival. Grats on the album release!
