  • Gorillaz: Il Nuovo Album "The Now Now" Esce Il 29 Giugno
    VENERDì 1 GIUGNO 2018 A pochi mesi dalla vittoria del loro primo Brit Award come Miglior Gruppo, i Gorillaz, la band virtuale di maggiore successo al mondo, annunciano il nuovo album The Now Now, in uscita il 29 giugno. Gorillaz: il nuovo album "The Now Prodotto dagli stessi Gorillaz, con James Ford e Remi Kabaka, è stato Now" esce il 29 giugno registrato interamente allo Studio 13 di Londra a febbraio di quest'anno. Online il video di "Humility" Nella registrazione di THE NOW NOW la band ha evitato le collaborazioni con delle guest star, preferendo riportare il tutto al gruppo creativo originale: alla voce il tenero sognatore dai capelli blu, 2D; alla chitarra la sfrontata ed insolente giapponesina, NOODLE; alla batteria il filosofo di CRISTIAN PEDRAZZINI Brooklyn e inventore di suoni RUSSEL HOBBS. E con Murdoc Niccals momentaneamente fuori gioco, nel nuovo album il basso è stato affidato al membro della Gangreen Gang ACE (la Gangreen Gang è un gruppo di attacca-briga dalla pelle verde, rivali delle Superchicche). Il video della prima traccia "Humility", che vede 2D andare in giro sui pattini e Jack Black suonare agli angoli di strada, è stato diretto da Jamie [email protected] Hewlett e girato interamente a Venice Beach il mese scorso. SPETTACOLINEWS.IT I Gorillaz saranno in tour quest'estate nei principali festival europei, e saranno anche per la prima volta in Italia con l'unica data nel nostro Paese al Lucca Summer Festival il 12 luglio. Il DEMON DAYS FESTIVAL, il celebre festival dei Gorillaz - "la gioiosa apocalisse?il festival carnevalesco delle grandi esibizioni" (The Guardian) curato da Damon Albarn e Jamie Hewlett - quest'anno sarà alla Pico Rivera Arena di Los Angeles il 20 ottobre The Now Now è disponibile in CD, LP e download, oltre ad una speciale edizione da collezionisti in cofanetto da doppio LP deluxe.

  • The Shadow of Purexo
    The Shadow of Purexo Lasse Öörni 1 2 NaNoWriMo 2011. Dedicated to the grand master chefs who each day sub- merge themselves in the art and science of preparing the most challenging desserts for the rest of us to enjoy. Also dedicated to Carolyn Keene. It is recommended to eat bun pudding and orange rice while reading. The character Okko created by Tomi Thurlin. Used with permission (as far as the author remembers.) 3 4 1. ”The composition's already close to optimal. Just have to keep the temperature firmly in check,” Lothar Wa- gener mused to himself as he eyed the yellow-brownish mass bubbling in a glass container, heated by a gas burner underneath. His present location was ten metres below ground, at Purexo's secret research facility for especially chal- lenging desserts (referred to ECD's in official memos.) He was the scientist in charge of product develop- ment and analysis. Purexo was the global leader of food, events and fa- cilities management services. Its morals and ethics had been questioned in the media several times. There had been demonstrations against the company, sometimes bordering on riots. Even some famous people had been arrested during these demonstrations. As for some of the less famous persons arrested – they had never been heard from again. Lothar had long ago learned not to care of his em- ployer’s public image, and did not feel any measure of guilt twisting his heart if he happened to ponder what fate had fallen upon those poor devils. And in any case that was a matter for the security division, not product 5 development.
