Himelstein Posted April 28, 2021 Share Posted April 28, 2021 You’re trapped forever on an island that has everything you need to play any type of media. You can only have: 5 albums 5 books (graphic novels, magazines etc) 5 movies 1 tv show season 5 video games (or board games, etc) 5 musical instruments 1 podcast What would you choose?

It has so much to give every time I listen to it (which is not very often, it's a grueling exercise at six hours). I wish I could've been there to see Marian Zazeela's Magenta Lights and hearing the piece live, completely brainless on a variety of exotic designer psychoactive substances. I would probably consider Young's The Second Dream Of The High-Tension Line Stepdown Transformer as well, the concept and execution is fantastic. That's about as drone as you can get with wind instruments. Edited April 30, 2021 by dcom 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Himelstein Posted April 30, 2021 Author Share Posted April 30, 2021 Mr. Bungle- Disco Volante Faith No More- Angel Dust Orbital- In Sides Skinny Puppy- Bites Depeche Mode- Violator (if allowed more I would definitely have afx saw2, uziq in pine effect, and probably glassworks) Annihilation- Keith Giffen Sinestro Corps War- Geoff Johns Return of the King- Tolkien Out of the Silent Planet- Lewis Lost Light- James Roberts -books are tough because I’ve never read the same thing twice (except the hobbit and chronicles of narnia) so I’d probably bring new stuff, but this is more of a best of anyways. Terminator 2 Twin Peaks: Fire Walk With Me Empire Strikes Back Light Years Princess Bride (if it was more I’d probably choose a clockwork orange and Pineapple Express for a stupid comedy) Arrested Development season 3 (curb season 2 and 3 are good too, it seems like after the year 2000 every show has a stellar season 3- comedies at least) Secret of Mana Final Fantasy 9 Megaman 2 Rygar Chrono Cross (just because of how many different ways it could be gone thru) Some type of akai mpc, either the 2000xl or the live 808 bass yamaha dx-11 303 (I guess a distortion pedal would be a must, I’d sub out the 303 for it) Rabbits or Tanis podcast, can’t decide. Probably Rabbits. This was a lot harder than I expected- the tv season and albums were the toughest decisions for me. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Himelstein Posted April 30, 2021 Author Share Posted April 30, 2021 Some of my friends did this but a top 3 of all, except instruments, I added that and dropped 2 off seasons of shows and podcasts. Choosing 3 albums and books would have been too hard for me, haha, but I could live with one podcast and one show Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But then by season 4, you are prepared for new characters/story, so it was just really good. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
