Things are looking up...

Okay, so I'm still ill, but I'm feeling better. Planning on going back to work tomorrow.

Two things for today:

1) Who was it recommended Battle Royale to me? (Arline?) Watched it last night, and it was splendid, in a very, very strange way, so thanks :)

2) Given my circle of friends, I'm guessing there must be some Mac-using Nine Inch Nails fans on my flist. That being the case, did you know that they've released the latest single in GarageBand format, i.e. with the individual tracks intact, ready for remixing?

Right. Now I'm going to sit on the sofa under a duvet and find some bad TV to watch. You know that you're well enough to go back to work when you stop enjoying Murder, She Wrote...

Heh. When I opened up the file, I immediately had my reasons for not liking NIN very much reinforced; it just looks so clockwork; I mean everything's exactly to the bar, everything's in even numbers... And the fact that they can release an entire album in GarageBand format is quite telling in itself, bearing in mind GarageBand's lack of support for tempo change during a track :)

So, yeah, could be quite an interesting challenge. Maybe just rip the lyrics out and put them to acoustic guitar :)

Actually, that sounded rather harsh, and I'd just like to say that while I don't enjoy the music much, I have a great deal of respect for any artist who lets their music off the leash like this, and I'd very much like to see more people put GarageBand files out there...

If I knew how to give out my garageband files, I would. Then people could bash me for being uncreative, too. ha ha

Or maybe just rip EVERYTHING out but the drum beat and replace it with some sort of gastrointestinal noise. You'd get pretty much the same thing, just less depressing.
