Um... Imma skim that article if I can't keep from going crosseyed halfway through, but I think you and me are both looking forward to the day when the internet is a free, globally standard repository of every piece of knowledge and media that can be found in any corner of the earth. Everyone deserves to be able to learn and experience the full range of ideas of the human race regardless of income or country, and anything less is mental tyranny.

It's okay, Batty. I know 1500+ words is a bit of a task for you so I sincerely appreciate you trying!

But yes - your ideas and mine are aligned as to our hope for the future of the free and open internet, and for a rich and accessible public domain from which content creators can draw to copy, combine, and transform ideas into new material that speaks to its generation and effectively expresses its ideas.

Cheers, Bat.

**** you? But the internet has done bad things to my attention span (I don't really care tbh) and I have literally 21 tabs open atm and buckling down to do one single thing for longer than ten minutes can be a bit of a chore.

Default The Worst Orchestra in the World Packs the Royal Albert Hall

A feature published in AtlasObscura today made my day!



Assembled by Gavin Bryars in 1970, and among its participants Brian Eno, The Portsmouth Sinfonia was an endearing trainwreck assemblage of musical ineptitude.

Bryars' "scratch" orchestra had little to no experience playing instruments, but that didn't stop them from releasing an incredible album. They developed such a cult following that the ensemble went on to perform a sold-out show at the Royal Albert Hall!

Check out the clips below for the hilarious results!

Default The Innerspace Labs Essential Recordings Guide

Another successful project implementation at Innerspace Labs!

For the last year, I’d been keeping a list of music to listen to in a checklist app, but the scope of the project quick outgrew the checklist format, so I reconstructed it as an organic digital music journal that can grow with my listening habits.

The initial process guide built from my notes comprises 76 pages of content, organized into 50+ sections with decimal numbered subsections. The journal also includes genre surveys, links to web resources, articles and reviews, and much, much more.
It will be fun to build and explore, will promote new and rewarding listening experiences, and will serve as a historical document of my musical journey. Perhaps it can even survive me as part of my legacy to help future listeners explore the world of music I leave to them when I’m gone.

That legacy factor developed into a second project which I’ve just completed this evening. While my blog and the journal will outlast me and serve well for any curious future listener looking to discover great music, I felt it would help to have something more digestible and more concise to introduce new readers to my archive.

That’s when I had the idea of generating a user list on RateYourMusic.com to showcase favorite recordings from my library with very brief statements about each work. Tonight, the resulting list is live on RYM.

Check it out here!

Default Just Arrived: Squeeze Box - The Complete Works of "Weird Al" Yankovic!

Today's arrival is an exclusive limited release from PledgeMusic.com!

The ultimate tribute to one of the most prolific musical careers of the last four decades, Squeeze Box features all 14 of Weird Al s studio albums remastered on CD, 150-gram vinyl and digital, spanning from his debut album Weird Al Yankovic (1983) to Mandatory Fun (2014).



Mandatory Fun was not only the first comedy album in history to debut at #1 on the Billboard chart, but also the first to even reach that lofty position in over 50 years. Altogether, the albums included in Squeeze Box have earned multiple Grammy awards, as well as dozens of gold and platinum records in the U.S., Canada, and Australia.

Six of these albums make their debut on vinyl as part of Squeeze Box. Each has been newly remastered by Grammy Award-winning engineer Mark Wilder and personally approved by Yankovic. An Al-curated 15th bonus disc, Medium Rarities, features specially selected non-album tracks from across his remarkable career.

Squeeze Box comes in a unique package worthy of Weird Al's inimitable style: an amazing replica of his signature accordion, with each album stored in its bellows. An accompanying 100-page book features a trove of rare and unseen photos and memorabilia.

The set includes:

"Weird Al" Yankovic (1983)
"Weird Al" Yankovic In 3-D (1984)
Dare To Be Stupid (1985)
Polka Party! (1986)
Even Worse (1988)
UHF Original Motion Picture Soundtrack and Other Stuff (1989)
Off The Deep End (1992)
Alapalooza (1993)
Bad Hair Day (1996)
Running with Scissors (1999)
Poodle Hat (2003)
Straight Outta Lynwood (2006)
Alpocalypse (2011)
Mandatory Fun (2014)
and the exclusive Medium Rarities (2017)



As an added bonus, this edition of the Squeeze Box included an exclusive"Weird Al" turntable slipmat, sure to delight the rabid Close Personal Friend of Al in your life!

The Weird Al Yankovic collection? Are you a masochist?


Actually, I kind of like Weird Al too. Someone help me!
