I got my moo cards in the mail, and I think I will probably print a whole lot more of these. The print quality is very good, the paper quality is awesome, the cards are thick, coated with matte finish, the format makes the photos stand out in a very original way, and I should just admit I am a sucker for small printed things in general…

This is the size/format of the cards:

And this is what they look like in the box:

The photos I used are all in this set.

At the moment on the Japanese radios, one of the hip albums being promoted and played 5-10 times a day is Radiodread, a cover of Radiohead’s excellent “OK Computer“. It’s just yet another proof that using something made by people with artistic talent (in this case, genius) does not give you talent, but in fact usually shows your lack of it.

Please, allow me to try and explain as briefly and explicitely as I can. Radiohead is the whitest of all white bands, it has its own original style, and in OK Computer more than in any of their other albums, it created a sound that is simply Radiohead’s. You can start painting strange faces with both eyes on the same side or make a montage of soup cans, but you need to have huge balls to call it an homage to Picasso or Warhol. It’s over, move on, there is plenty to do if you’re motivated and talented. If all you can do is add some rhythm box and sing over someone else’s tune, it’s called karaoke, and nobody should have to hear your joke of a song…

From the Easystar Records website:

During this two year long process, producer Michael G and his Easy Star partners Smith and Lem Oppenheimer, kept coming back to one record, which eventually became the album they chose: OK Computer. Says Michael G: “Conceptually and thematically we knew the album was a solid candidate; but we just weren’t sure whether the arrangements could work. On one hand, OK Computer has elements that are perfect—strong melodies, intense dynamics and trippy soundscapes; on the other, it has complex time signatures, chord changes and things that typically aren’t found in reggae. The more we looked at it, the more we realized that this was an album we had to do.”

The more you looked at it, the more you should have realized you were stoned and that there are plenty of albums you should just leave alone!
