Jan. 11th, 2002 12:51 pmI like sample bands. What I mean by sample bands are people who take samples of whatever and put them to a funky beat. They're a lot of fun. Here are my four favorite (the only four I really know):
Also, I've become very bored with the internet lately, but that has been cured now that I have found a couple of sites that catalog other interesting stuff that kills a few minutes of time at a pop. I started with
hamadryad's blog page which led me to the great site fark.com. Links to all sorts of odd stories and things.
Found on
hamadryad's site: Kevin Smith's graphical novel telling the story of his first kiss with his wife. It's hilarious.
Hopefully tonight I'll feel more ambitious and I'll do a couple of updates I've been meaning to do. I want to update us on the casting of my movie (keep the suggestions coming!) I'm also going to make a list of my favorite Palm applications (all games, probably).
- Fat Boy Slim - Easily the most recognizable of these bands. Very upbeat, very dancy. My favorites (go download 'em!) are Gangster Tripping and Right Here, Right Now.
- The Propellerheads - Somewhat less dancy, but they have some fun songs. My favorites (go download 'em!) are Velvet Pants and Take California (currently on the iPod commercial).
- Tipsy - I don't even know if they con be considered a sample band by my definition, but I still think they're great. VERY loungy, which I love. My favorites (go download 'em!) are El Bombo Atomico and Space Golf.
- The Avalanches - I just "discovered" them a couple of weeks ago. Popular in Australia for a while, apparently, but just now starting to be heard in the USA. My favorite (go download it!) is Frontier Psychiatrist.
