...dance album. Although tracks like "B My Dog" and "Wardance (Never Trust a Hippie)" have dancefloor potential, these songs are often far too erratic and cerebral to liven up your next party. In the tradition popularized by Richard James of Aphex Twin, DJ Silver charts his sonic terrain with analog synths sighing and chirping over energetic beats. And although lacking James's technical brilliance or devilish imagination (DJ Silver remains faithful to standard house and breakbeat rhythms), DJ Silver's music is much more accessible. For people whose only exposure to electronic music is in clubs on Lansdowne Street...
Super Sunday scored big with my friends and neighbors anyway. Even without HDTV, the gridiron never looked better--thanks to the jumbo screen and a hidden upgrade that effectively doubles the standard analog screen resolution. The casual consensus: the best TV picture they had ever seen...
Music and colors are richly interwoven in our psychology. In her latest release, Japan's Takako Minekawa draws us back to an infant's syn(th)aesthetic state where musical notes, colors, words and numbers find unity under a common sense of wonder. Armed with analog Casio synthesizer, Minekawa blends the controlled tones and rhythms of Kraftwerk (to whom she pays homage on the expansive "Kraftpark") with the delicate innocence of 60s French pop-to effects which at times echo likeminded Stereolab and 80s New Wave. Minekawa refines her music along minimalist lines, creating a childlike interplay between melody...
...course, it's possible to meet someone online, but it's just as tough as the old, analog ways. Consider Match.com a $90-a-year service that boasts that 1,300 of the 1.4 million people who have registered since 1995 have married. Sounds impressive until you realize that the chance of finding a match made in heaven is less than 1 in 1,000. I got dozens of responses to my ad on Yahoo (which is free), but most contenders were less appealing than the last-call crowd at a singles bar. A startling number of men thought...
...them and Washington is that in the past few years, so many new lines have gone up; people have put out leads, cables, wires, dishes and high-speed traces connecting them to just about everything else. In a hyperconnected digital age, the last thing anyone can afford is an analog connection to a government that doesn't get it, can't keep up and is probably only going to make things worse if it finds you. Gordon Smith, the freshman Republican Senator from Oregon, is worried that a government engineered more than two centuries ago risks irrelevance in the Internet...
