wake up at seven eat some corn puffs cereal

here's some catch up for the fun house.  there is still one more show to put up that will hopefully be here in the next few days.

the fun house 13: 9.14.11
playlist - this is a slightly shorter show than normal due to being locked out of the studio

the fun house 14: 9.28.11
playlist

also starting in november i will be hosting the funhouse 3 weeks a month, so the shows will be coming even quicker.  also also i am looking into setting the show up as a podcast to help streamline the download process for some.

just for curiosities sake here is a list of artists who have appeared more than once in the first 15 shows. enjoy!

Fun House 9.7.11 
playlist

here we have the recording of my 12th funhouse from last week.  for those keeping track, the 11th show is not available.  i was sick/wacko/shitty and when the file was giving me problems at the end of the show i was frustrated enough not to care.  however if anyone wants me to upload what i played as individual tracks i'd be happy too.  the shitty evening did not taint the good music.

lost funhouse playlist (8.24.11)

also, i will probably be posting the radio sessions more than individual albums from now one.  because a) i put a lot of time into them and am proud of them 2) i am more comfortable with that morally III) there are a bajillion album blogs, but only half a bajillion posting radio shows.  that said, if you ever would like more of what you hear on these radio shows, ask.  it's just nice to know people are listening/enjoying themselves and i'd love to aid in more enjoyment.

should have some movie related posts coming mid week.

i couldn't get away, no matter how far i went

Charles Bradley - No Time For Dreaming

another wonderful modern soul release from daptone.  they have to be one of the most consistent labels these days and we really should all support this kind of music.

Menahan Street Band - No Time For Dreaming (The Instrumentals)

no words, still great.

bullshit rankings: pt. one

lists are dumb, i know.  i haven't really given one much thought in many years.  but while trying to tell a younger co-worker what i though the few good kubrick movies were when he was talking about clockwork i thought it might be fun to occasionally post ranked lists of the filmes i've seen from some of the bigger names in the cannon and probably some random directors as well.  this is mostly for fun and with little thought.  i will however try and be as upfront as possible both in my preferences and in the often embarrassing gaps in what i've seen.  hopefully this and the cinema round up will happen a few times a month.

so lets start with kubrick:

- eyes wide shut
- dr. strangelove
- barry lyndon
- the killing
-
- 2001
-
- clockwork orange
- paths of glory
- the shining
-
- full metal jacket
- killers kiss

still haven't seen lolita or spartacus.









and two others that are easier due to sparse output

terrence malick:

- days of heaven
- the tree of life
- the new world
-
- thin red line
- badlands

andrei tarkovsky:

- stalker
- the sacrifice
- mirror
-
- solaris
- andrei rublev
-
- nostalgia

haven't seen ivan's childhood or the steamroller & the violin











and one more that will pair well with the next roundup, as the top film is also one i just finally watched:

steven soderbergh:

-schizopolis
-solaris
-
- the limey
-
- oceans 11
- out of sight
-
-sex lies and videotape
-
- bubble
- oceans 12
-
- oceans 13
- traffic
- che

12 movies i haven't seen (only interested in a few - like kafka)
