  1. yeah it was kinda scary but there was also the element where like nothing was scary by comparison lol? Nightmare on Elm Street.... I dun get it where's the scary but seriously kind of corny by comparison but homage? oh crap also http://variety.com/2018/film/news/scary-stories-to-tell-in-the-dark-guillermo-del-toro-eone-1202790304/
  2. I'm going there Stephen Gammell http://amberrosehammond.com/2012/05/contents-of-a-nightmare-the-artwork-of-stephen-gammell-and-scary-stories-to-tell-in-the-dark/ secret origin of song title - DJ Saint-Hubert - big up on ceiling whether the art is creepy or triggering or not you've got to appreciate the otherworldlyness of it and that he might actually be a halfway normal guy, he just throws som shit into art I guess secret origins, A Moon Shaped Ghoul
  3. DJ die die die die die
  4. I've recontextualized Tina Turner Goldeneye to be about trolling what is wrong with me
  5. DJ Sega Genesis Music Sounded All Tinny in Context in the 90s, Youse Guys Are Just Being Nostalgiacore
  6. DJ Tetrisphere was Basically Aphex Twin Music WTF
  7. DJ Ghost of Christmas Present was a Gainer
  8. DJ Floating Point Orientation
  9. can't relax the pyramid made me paranoid
  10. this is still cool though. Like this and PBS to remind kids za worudo still exists out there
  11. mad max beyond the thunderdome starring The Aphex Twin
  12. re: little details/attention to detail? in Japanese games I totally agree, even when the cohesive whole isn't very good. Like at least compared to the GTAs and Call of Dutys of the world, even when I detect Japanese-style tropes in a game sometimes there seems like something going on with the style of the game. I don't know if it's just I'm Western and better at detecting the Western tropes but the games in the video look really cool. Also it's fun to hear Japanese game designers talk in interviews. Is everyone Brian Eno over there lol The "Japanese prefer a more metaphorical or surreal game world" or whatever the line was is funny though. How does Doom or Quake represent real reality at all, lol. Maybe Doom world is more "sensational" in some way, they're saying?
  13. hiking is not emotional hiking is very manly and stoic
  14. talked to my aunt and uncle and cousins in the same day also yes don't listen to darreichungsform not even the music
  15. lol I guess I'm trying too hard to recreate the IDM experience through forum posts, flol
  16. I'm afraid actually watching the series will make me dumber somehow, from what I've heard
  17. oh I was gonna say Christian-themed animes remind me of "christian furries". If anything aren't your beliefs like almost automatically shamanism, I mean seriously
  18. only underlying theme of Hellsing imo https://www.graphicsprings.com/category/religious not necessarily atheist but agnostic-y "can't you guys agree on anything" one lyric in Hellsing is like Japanese I think but I swear it's supposed to sound like 'revelation'. Do those 'religions were conceived on drugs' books ever acknowledge Revelations was definitely the bad trip, 'whoa I'm freaking out dude' one of the parts of the bible. Or the weird anime ending of the Bible. Or both
  19. um so I've never watched this series but elsewhere we joked about this and Hellsing, and then to some extent the Final Fantasy games (Longinus (spear icon) is a weapon found in at least 1 or 2 of the games), where like in Japan there's not gonna be the sacreligious element of it with Christianity so it's just like FUN THEME or good hype for an anime? I went all the way making fun of the youtubes that are titled like 'anime is Satanic' etc., well to be 'Satanic' wouldn't there have to be an element of majority Christian country or 'making a vote against Hillary' but instead in opposition to Christianity? But yeah stuff like this where it's outsider hamfisted idea of "Christian themes". And then you can be pretend hamfisted if you're Japanese as well? (Earthbound, what it's canon that Ness is actually black somehow, Onett police station attack is like Rodney King, also hostility from the Happy Happyists) re: Hellsing an online friend of mine literally thought "Protestant" was the most mysterious thing ever for some time period because of Hellsing. We're at a sweet spot in human history where the domestic American person can be just as ignorant (in the neutral sense of the word) and tl;dr about Christian stuff (maybe they were Scandanavian) as a Japanese guy and it's beautiful. Just grrarrarrar can we get that stuff eliminated as a theme in art, from whichever direction already. Blade Runner 2049 has Christian readings, etc. although it isn't necessarily endorsing it? It's still validated as THEME, thematic element. Like what if we're doomed that we can't tell a narrative without Christian stuff sneaking in? speaking of final fantasy http://finalfantasy.wikia.com/wiki/Illumina probably just "fun theme" to a Japanese guy though, not hourzandhourz of rambling youtubes
  20. also I don't ride a bike, I walk a lot because I would be terrified of simultaneous muzak and biking but walking with muzak is ok
  21. what if I told u I'm a man and I exist
  22. crap I thought this was a YLC topic a song called "Crying Bikes". Can I use that anyway
