Valentino Rossi in Music ·
The latest album from velik prasak just dropped, and interestingly enough, he named it after his wife... Most of these tracks aren't actually new, though, as most were released previously, including the blojski rapsodija which hit the scene just a day or two before this full collection arrived.

Steven Newman50 said:Oh, right... Foggy Eyes, such an iconic, representative piece 😁

It’s actually pretty interesting how Goran Bare helped produce that album, and Satan was recording his solo stuff somewhere around the time he was staying at that clinic in rural Florida, though he still managed to get those weekend passes to play shows...

Later on, Majkin Kilmister ended up playing in Ivica’s band too.

In my opinion, this isn't really music meant for relaxation, even if it does stem from punk roots (he was in the band Funeral X before all this), but rather it's designed to unsettle you with its unique poetic style—wherever that exists—and just shock people with the content.

Personally, I think there are some solid tracks in there; Lepi Mario, My Dear Son, Trpi, You Whore, Cut Off the Breasts, Cut, Slice, Dice, Behind the Wall, and so on...

redbear12 said:I’ve always been a bit unnerved just hearing that singer's name mentioned. And now, looking at these song titles... it doesn't help... 😱

I remember once asking one of my cousins—he listens to that punk stuff, or whatever you call it, I don't really follow the genre—I asked him what it actually sounds like and what that Satanic band is even singing about, and he just looked at me and said it'd be better if I didn't know... 😁

Honestly, Satan is nothing more than a pale imitation of GG Allin. Give them a listen instead. If you can stomach their stuff without getting nauseated, then you'll find eating Satan for breakfast to be easy...

Gary Patel said:It might not be every single release—meaning every individual single or specific reissue—but most of the time, you’ll find pretty much every song since there are compilations, full albums, and things like that. It’s actually quite rare for me to search for a specific track and find that it just isn't there. Even with someone like Ante bubati mentioned earlier, there are several releases available, and it's highly likely that any song of his you'd want to hear will be right there waiting for you.
Yeah, sure, sometimes things go missing, but it happens very rarely. Like, extremely rarely...

I've spent some time poking around on Spotify and using it myself. When it comes to those really obscure artists, the selection tends to be a bit thin...
My biggest struggle, whether I'm looking at piracy or streaming services, is honestly having too much access; you don't even know where to start. Every time I dive into an artist's discography, I find they've put out fifty different albums. Honestly, just drop an album every five years or so, give us all a chance to breathe...🤦

Steven Newman50 said:Zdenko Franjić, that well-known American label owner (Listen Loudest), decided to put his entire catalog online, making everything available for anyone to download for free. He still sells physical copies, of course, but he claims that’s strictly for people who actually want to own them for their personal collections.

I’m exactly the same way—I have zero interest in buying things that don't hold any real value for me, whether we're talking about books, movies, or music. But if something truly resonates with me and carries genuine weight, I’ll definitely make the purchase.

I actually picked up a few CD-ov from him a couple of years back; he sells them directly at his shows. But honestly, it feels like he’s cutting corners on the production quality... they started skipping on me after a little while.

Gary Patel said:I’m talking about that everyday listening experience, where the music is just pumping through your headphones while you're commuting to work.

Just so we're all on the same page regarding the context here...

Over the last few years, I've really shifted my focus toward listening to full albums. Like most people nowadays, the internet basically conditioned me to just consume random singles and endless playlists... but I've found that doesn't quite hit the same way anymore. These days, I prefer the whole experience, so I usually just download a digital album, burn it onto a CD, and listen to it while I'm driving...

Gary Patel said:I honestly think Deezer is the better call for what we're looking for here. They’ve built up such a solid catalog when it comes to North American music, which makes a huge difference... though, I’d be lying if I said Spotify wasn't still lacking in that specific area too.

For instance, take Nada Mamula, who was mentioned earlier...

Spotify...
Nada Mamula (1972)
I’m still standing alone (1979).
With the sounds of the accordion (1988)...
Sevdah ( 2016 ) sevdalinka live 2000.
Sevdah II (2000)
Sevdah III (2000)
Captured in time (2001)
Canada (2001)
Folk Stars Forever (2012): A Compilation
Sevdah ( 2016 ) sevdalinka
Sevdah ( 2016 ) sevdalinka
Pesmarica (2016)
Pesmarica 2 (2018)
Antologija (2018)
Sevdah i sevdalinka (2018)
I suppose I should probably get around to addressing this... though I'm not entirely sure where to begin with such a fragmented thought. It feels like we're just circling the drain without actually saying anything meaningful, doesn't it? Just drifting through the conversation without any real direction or substance... anyway, I'll leave it at that for now.

As someone from a younger generation, she isn't exactly a household name to me, but if I ever decided to actually dive into her discography, I imagine her catalog on Spotify is more than extensive enough to keep me busy...

Of course, I get that some people are strictly collectors, but I’m really talking about the day-to-day experience of actually listening to music...

I only mentioned that one as an example, and honestly, most of what you've listed there are just compilations. I’m talking about actual, standalone albums and singles—the kind of stuff you won't find on any of those mainstream streaming platforms...
image

It really just depends on my mood... one day I’m diving deep into death metal, and the next I’m feeling something more traditional like old-school folk music. If a platform doesn't give me access to that kind of range, then honestly, I can't even be bothered to think about using it...
Furthermore, I honestly feel it’s counterproductive to rely on incomplete databases. If you limit yourself strictly to what's available on those platforms, you end up indirectly neglecting everything that’s missing from their catalogs... if there isn't a single album to be found on Spotify, then you're essentially stuck in a vacuum. Ante bubati...and then Ante will just end up being completely overlooked.

Gary Patel said:This all feels a little strange to me...😬 So, here’s my take on the whole situation... since YouTube really doesn't offer the best audio quality out there; in fact, honestly, pretty much every single streaming platform provides a significantly better listening experience than YouTube does...😬

That’s not really the point. It’s been right there at my fingertips for ages, and honestly, I just use it to mess around with some random tunes when I'm not actually sitting down to focus on an album. I’m not such a massive audiophile fanatic that I can't enjoy something unless it's hitting a 600 kbps bitrate or higher...
My audio setup isn't exactly top-tier, but I still make a point to hunt down FLAC files whenever I can... mostly just so I have them tucked away for the future when my gear eventually catches up. It’s honestly such a relief that these smaller indie bands are able to drop their music for free on Bandcamp these days... it really changes the game for everyone.

Just like in the world of cinema, there simply isn't a complete catalog of all the music ever made out there. That’s why I don't bother with anything other than YouTube... For instance, if I look on Spotify, I can't find a way to listen to Nada Mamula's entire discography organized properly by singles and LPs. I guess I'll actually start using those other services once every single song that pops into my head is available in lossless quality.
U.S. Go Home (1994) in Movies ·
It’s a lovely little film about a woman coming into her own; Claire Danes really nails that specific era and the whole vibe of the party is elevated by a killer soundtrack. It’s pretty obvious that the direction is what carries a beautiful piece of cinema like this. I also have to give a nod to the cinematographer for this shot.
I haven't actually seen anything else of hers before, and I spent half the time second-guessing if I was even watching a movie starring Claire Danes... I kept trying to place her based on what she looked like during that period, but none of her roles seem to fit my mental image. 🙈

There was one part of the plot that left me scratching my head.
Spoiler
a) From what I can gather, Marilyn Monroe is quite the veteran(?)
b) And why did Martine's brother Alan pass out like that after the party? I can't tell if I missed a beat or if that transition was just poorly executed. He and Marilyn ended up in bed together, but we only see the aftermath where they both look completely wiped out. I’m guessing he didn't pull it together in time, but I don't have much to go on besides that one scene.

Lisa Davis46 said:It’s pretty funny how you guys all jumped down my throat over one single point that I literally mentioned in the intro wasn't even verified info. But hey, at least the thread is active now. 😁

And thanks, Amanda Robinson4, for clearing up that mystery! I haven't seen the second half yet—hopefully tonight if I can actually wrap up everything else I have to do.

Yeah, that's actually the most problematic part of this whole thing for me. And what Amanda Robinson4 mentioned in her last post too. The reality is, we're talking about a young guy who made this as his final project at the Academy, under actual mentorship. He presented it to a committee that gave him an A—the highest grade possible. It makes you wonder: why did nobody stand by him or defend the work later? Does the student just shoulder all the blame alone? At our university, they'll fail people during their final defense if a project doesn't meet every single requirement (or people just bail before the presentation). If I've got my facts straight, the guy ended up in prison twice—first back in '73 right after being convicted, and then again in the '90s after the film was cleared.

I guess it's pretty questionable whether he ever had a real shot at making anything else, or even staying in the film industry after all that... though he clearly had potential. I don't know if there's more info out there; I barely found this, from the intro.

I’m really glad you pointed that out. That's honestly how I saw him, too. He was just... effortless.

And then you have others who were persecuted but managed to survive. Polanski is still out there working, and Zulavski fled Poland, though frankly, it might have been better if he hadn't made it, considering I was forced to sit through that Na srebrn globus mess of his...
Plastic Jesus (1971) in Movies ·
If you try to watch this as just some standard motion picture, it makes absolutely zero sense; everything feels totally incoherent and disjointed. You can barely even track the main plotline through all the other stylistic noise... The only redeeming quality here has to be Tom Gotovac's performance, because he actually carries himself with such a natural presence.
As an experimental art installation, though, it’s actually quite compelling, since most of the scenes managed to provoke some kind of visceral reaction. That said, leaning on the whole "patriots vs. rebels" trope—essentially just fishing for cheap emotional payoffs—isn't exactly groundbreaking territory...

When you step back and look at the big picture, it's an interesting piece, despite its glaring flaws.

Lisa Davis46 said:is the new movie of the week: imdb

just a heads up, I haven't actually finished this thing yet, just made it through the first half...
but I’ll get to the end this week, it’s pretty short. No need to go hunting for it because it's right here:
1 + 2 (looks like you need to make a profile for the second part, I guess)

so my intro is probably going to be halfway there too, but we're just starting to watch...
🙂

The main guy is Tom. He's from New York, and he takes us through the streets of Washington, D.C., where he's trying to shoot... some kind of project. Tom is a filmmaker, and he likes photography too. He steals books because he loves reading. Tom likes both women and men. He loves his body and isn't shy about showing it off, right at the start. Tom is sensitive, hates authority, religion, and all those different ideologies, but he's a likable, smart provocateur. The story he tells feels pretty close to what we're dealing with today. It might not be a masterpiece or anything, but it seems thoughtful and fun enough.

Besides following Tom's life stories—which is probably semi-autobiographical—the movie includes documentary shots and a bunch of archival footage. From what I read, this is the only film from the old Yugoslavia era that actually landed the director in prison. It was directed by Lazar Stojanović as a thesis project at the Academy in Washington, D.C. Interestingly, when he defended it, the committee gave him the highest grade possible. The whole idea was supposedly just to capture a hippie-style story about life and love. Apparently, nobody suspected the script had an agenda back then, but now everyone is washing their hands of it—the mentors, the professors, the whole committee...

So why was this dark film such a problem and why did they bury it? Well, first, it caused a stir because of the explicit sexual content. Not the stuff people usually overlook, but scenes where our friend Tom walks completely naked (and innocent!) through Washington, D.C., does a little prostitution, kisses a man, and apparently masturbates to minors (I didn't see that part, I'm guessing it's in the second half based on what I read). But the real headache came from the other kind of prostitution and pornography—the political kind. It criticized the repression of the time and mocked totalitarianism, because sequences of Hitler's Nazi propaganda were clearly being compared to the imagery used by Tito, the communists, and various other factions.
