Video for Intro to Digital Media from Nathan Imhoff on Vimeo.

Been super busy this semester, which the reason the blog has been lagging that last few weeks! Finally got this video off my back, I really don’t understand why they have people working with motion. Graphic Design Students should become masters of still graphics before they even touch motion. Just like any traditional art class. But… I am just rolling with the punches.

“All You Need Is Love” – John, Paul, George, Ringo

The Beatles // Remastered Stereo Box Set

Tomorrow is the big day! I know many people are excited about The Beatles Rockband.  Personally I could care less about a video game.  Sure I have had fun playing Rockband in the past but it kinda got old for me.  What I was excited about was the Remastered Catalog!  Now I am not going to review the Beatles, that would be just stupid!  I am going to answer the question is it worth to buy this Remastered re-release? So I will answer your question with another questions, DO YOU LOVE YOUR EARS?  If the answer is yes, THEN GET YOUR ASS OUT THERE AND BUY THIS!  As my friend ladyducayne would say, it will change your life.

Joking aside, I have been listening to all weekend, and WOW what a difference!  I really don’t believe you can make the Beatles sound any better, short of raising John and George from the dead and putting them in latest state of the art recording studio!

Stereo Release retails – $219.00 // Mono Release Retails – $269.00 Individual albums are available the prices vary. All Albums and Rockband Game are available 09/09/09!

The Beatles // Mono Vs Stereo

Whitney Houston // I Look To You

Whitney Houston // I Look To You

It has been 7 LONG years since Whitney Houston’s last release. She has been around the block a few times and finally realized that those fleas she was picking up… were from the dog sleeping in here bed. This album isn’t a madonna like comeback, with Whitney trying to reinvent herself. She is keeping it real and doing what she knows, 80′s like pop. Lots of big names going into the writing and producing of this album. I really hope it does well and Whitney can stay on the straight and narrow. She was always way to talented, to be wasting it on anything else by performing. Just please for the love of god no Body guard 3…

The Used // Artwork – We will be doing a review of this album prior to it’s release.
Black Crowes // Before The Frost…

September 8th

Chevelle // Sci-Fi Crimes

Chevelle // Sci-Fi Crimes

Amerie // In Love & War

Marie Digby // Breathing Underwater

Jay-z // The Blueprint 3
Like typical Jay-z fashion he isn’t releasing this album on the typical Tuesday, instead going with a Friday release on September 11th.  We will see if that pays off.

September 9th

The Beatles // Remastered Abbey Road

THE BEATLES – Remastered Catalog!

I first heard rumors about the remaster project about two years ago and have been giddy with excitement every since!  About 7 months ago I read a Rolling Stone article, where they were invited to actually preview the project!  They said WOW, it sounded amazing!  I am sure some people will have complaints, like they did when Pearl Jam reissued TEN.  Claiming that the sound is too clean and not what they are use to.  To that I say tough!  Just as Eddie Vedder said… this was the way we wanted to release the record.  Yes this is going to be FREAKIN AWESOME!

September 15

Muse // The Resistance

Muse // The Resistance

Well Muse is almost releasing this on  September 15th, they following Jay-z’s example and going with Monday release.  I am really looking forward to this record!

Mariah Carey //Memoirs Of An Imperfect Angel

This is the follow up to the grammy award winning The Emancipation Of Mimi.

September 20

Pearl Jam // Backspace

Pearl Jam // Backspacer

It’s Pearl Jam!  What more can be said!  I mean once you make an Album like Ten you can pretty much hang it up but then they followed up with Vs. and Vitalogy.  They are legendary!  They have always been about one thing… MUSIC!  Few bands can say that… This is going to be exclusively sold at Target along with Independent stores and Itunes.  This seems to be a trend of bands that have a soul.  Green Day did a similar deal.  It is basically a big FU to Walmart, who has been forcing artists to change their lyrics in order to be stocked in Walmart stores!

September 22

Madonna // Celebration

Madonna // Celebration [Greatest hits]

36 songs in all plus two new tracks.  I was unable to confirm if Celebration is one of those tracks or it will be 2 completely new tracks.

David Gray // Draw The Line

Sean “Pdiddy” Combs // Last Train To Paris

I have never really been impressed with Puff Daddy, P-Diddy or whatever he goes by this week.  We will see if this album has some eye candy…  Not holding my breath

September 29

Paramore // Brand New Eyes

Paramore // Brand New Eyes

We will see if Paramore can make lighting strike twice.  Their Sophomore album Riot!, was pretty good even it was played on the radio till your eyes bled!  I have a feeling Paramore does an Avril Lavigne and just never measures up to their previous album.  Prove me wrong Paramore!

Nelly Furtado // Mi Plan

Alice in Chains // Black Gives Way To Blue

Is Alice in Chains the next AC/DC? The Circumstances are very similar. This will be the first album since Layne Staley’s death in 2002.  The band took a 4 year hiatus then began playing again with a new singer William DuVall.  Ironically, Duvall and Staley are were born just a few weeks apart in 1967 and are both Virgos.  Maybe Duvall, might have the same Vibe after all.  I am sure pulling for them.  I think if a band is going to make the a singer switch, they have the best chance if the singer dies opposed to leaving the band.  Fan’s always take sides in all the band drama.
