Dancing on the Ceiling

Talk to a 4 year old about walking upside down and gravity and then show them the video for Lionel Richie’s Dancing on the Ceiling. Mind blowing. Apparently the whole room rotated according to the Wikipedia page for the song.

Batman The Movie Theme by Powerglove

Ah, one of my favourite movies of all time. Batman The Movie, released in 1989 with a fabulous Danny Elfman soundtrack. Videogame metal band Powerglove covered the main theme tune and put a crazy video game behind it. Here’s the original theme, much shorter. Powerglove added bits of their own. Metal fans will love it!

Take That Croke Park, 2011

Here are a few photos from last Sunday’s Take That concert in Croke Park, Dublin. It was an amazing concert that started way too slowly. The Alice in Wonderland theme was great but the show really picked up once Robbie Williams came on stage. The guy is a master show man. If Freddie Mercury were [...]

Flimbo’s Quest Music

Foot taping stuff. Great tune by Reyn Ouwehand. If you hear my phone ring an mp3 remix of this tune is what you’ll hear. Yes, I.am.a.big.C64.fan! When you’re finished with that, try out this guitar cover of the same tune. Bob played each voice of the C64 (plus noise I guess) separately and merged them [...]

The King of Pop is dead

Where were you when you heard? My wife and I were relaxing in the sitting room of the Dingle Skellig Hotel when we heard that Michael Jackson had died. An elderly couple across the room had the Irish Examiner and were poring over the news. I remember the day he played in Cork. I lived [...]

Kylie Minogue does Monkey Man

Well, this was a nice start to the day. Yesterday morning I heard a catchy tune coming from the living room so I popped my head in to see Kylie singing with “The Wiggles” on NickJr. They covered Monkey Man by The Specials and I have to take my hat off to Miss Minogue. Wow. [...]

Crash Different

An oldie, but as they say, “a goody”. For all the Mac fans who are sick and tired of their computers crashing. (Hey Mark!) Found this on a CD while sorting through my CDRs and music collection. Most are now ripped to MP3 and the physical media is heading into the attic for safe storage. [...]

PRESS PLAY ON TAPE: Retro Action

Get your dose of retro action in this video! The Commodore 64, Amstrad CPC 464, 1541 disk drive, Sony Walkman, D&D, Sodastream and various other memories of the 80′s all make an appearance. Might not be safe for work though. You’ve been warned! An introduction video used for a couple of our concerts as a [...]

Wizball live at the church

This blew me away the first time I heard it. The title tune of classic C64 game Wizball recreated by Reyn Ouwehand. You could watch the embedded movie, but for the full stereo HD experience take a look at the high quality version on Youtube. Reyn explains why he did it: I also play this [...]
