Which book?

 

 

 

 

this opening scene from the movie 'the game' has some piano music that fits that description. if you like piano try this.

i think it's by Howard shore, it goes till about 2:15

Holy shit, rolling youtube at 1:16am.

i havent had a book do this to me in ages, im not even entirely sure id call it an especially good book, i just feel so oddly tender and.. gay.

that is a really personal question to ask because a lot of the idm that i find extremely sad is mainly due to personal reasons and concepts that i'm reflecting on to the music itself.

 

overall though you should definitely check out:

 

maps and diagrams - antennas and signals

proem - socially inept (definitely the songs 'place gun to head' and 'sleep is for lunch')

yasume - where we're from the birds sing a pretty song

loess - 3d concepts (more specifically the song 'sofar' i think its on his myspace) also the album wind and water

 

i can name a lot more if you want

Curiously this is the next book I'm reading.

 

Just finished 'Molloy' by Samuel Beckett. I still cant believe how good it was, you should read it.
