Music Find of January - Pomplamoose
one of my best friends found an indie band on youtube called Pomplamoose and sent them my way. i wish i could embed their video but i guess they don't allow that? honestly, i don't blame them because their music is fantastic. check them out, and then follow their header link to myspace for some free song downloads.

the brilliance of Pixar
below is a clip from UP, i believe that it's one of the most moving scenes/montages from any film ever. it's amazing that carl and ellie's entire relationship is conveyed here with only images and music. i'm posting this because recently i had someone tell me that they didn't understand why anyone would ever want to watch a "cartoon movie" of the sort Pixar thrives in and i in return almost lost my mind. haha.

Up In The Air review
up in the air is a new age classic film. the overall story here isn't anything new, but the way it gets to its ending is totally unique. i love what it has to say about the world constantly become more and more connected, yet disconnected, through technology. of course clooney's character is the extreme of disconnected but how many of us can truly relate to his philosophy on life? very witty, blatantly honest, and with an interesting take on the state of modern man, up in the air was a fantastic watch. a late year gem, one of 2009's best films.
