Organ player at Yankee Stadium played the first few notes of Shellshock between pitches during the 6th inning tonight vs. Kansas City. Wonderfully obscure (relatively).

Thomas Gold covers "Blue Monday"

“‘Blue Monday’ has always been one of those tracks—raw, iconic, and timeless,” Gold says. “I’ve always dreamed of putting my own spin on it, not to recreate the past, but to fuse its original vibe with the sounds of now. I wanted it to hit hard, feel fresh, and still nod to its roots. When Dim Mak got behind it, that was the green light. I hope DJs will tear it up in their sets, and that people feel the same rush I’ve always felt when this track drops. Super stoked for this one!”

I'm not sure if this sounds any more fresh than the '95 mixes, but at least it's short:

Watched Candyman (2021) recently. Scene where a girl randomly says Joy Division song titles , She's Lost Control, Atrocity Exhibition, LWTUA ... until finally her boyfriend angrily snaps back " ok , you like Joy Division, i get it!".

Saw 28 Years Later at cinema yesterday. Kind of NO related that in one scene Wagner's Rheingold:Vorspiel plays. Turns out it's actually a cover by Young Fathers, they did the music for the film. I'm not sure it really fitted the scene ( infected guy chasing people) though.

Pitchfork's social media decided to throw The 200 Best Albums of the 1980s at me today, altbough I've just realised the article is originally from 2018. NO and JD make appearances.
As you might expect from a US "alternative" publication, artists like Husker Du, Pixies, Talking Heads and Sonic Youth all pop up - which is fine by me, after all my forum name is a Pixies song title. It also has artists like Salt n' Pepa, Ice T, Run DMC and Eric B & Rakim. But who decided to put Madonna's debut LP at No 16? It's not even Madonna's best album, never mind something worthy of an "all time" top 20 list. Janet Jackson's Control at No 8 is also a surprise. I guess they allowed commercial success to influence their rankings.

But why? Is there money in it? Who needs a 2020's "melodic techno" / EDM cover version of a classic track? What does he think he's achieving with this?

Oh, OK. Well in that case... Eek

Did she snap back "I refuse to come back as a bug or a rabbit"?
I watched the original Candyman back in the early '90s. Do I need to watch another one, or can I stick to the original, like with Blue Monday?

I watched the original 28 Days Later back in 2002, didn't bother with the sequel in 2007. Do I need to watch another one, or can I stick to the original, like with Blue Monday?

Do not waste your time watching the 2021 remake of Candyman. It's rubbish. The original is still way the best.

I too watched 28 Days Later back in 2002. Great film. I did really like its 2007 sequel too. Really rate that one. This new one though is, well it's not a bad film but it just didn't have me on the edge of my seat at any time like the first 2 did. A bit dull. And some directorial choices were odd and didn't work. And there's even some bad editing. Ok, maybe it is a bad film actually. So i'd reccomend watching the 2007 sequel but don't waste your time with the latest one.
