Adua & Her Friends (DVD)

Adua & Her Friends (DVD) / 2011 Rarovideo / 129 Minutes / http://www.rarovideo.com I had thought with the advent of the Blu-Ray, that DVD-making companies would gradually die off. However, there are some companies that are putting out some impressive DVD-only content. Rarovideo is one of these companies, and Adua & Her Friends (Adua e le compagne) is an example of one of these films. The film is only one…

Shady Nate – “Gimmie Da Loot”

The project earned both the rapper and DJ/producer high praise and strong sales, and now, the original CD album will be re-packaged and accompanied by Nate’s and Fresh’s latest collaborative effort, Still Based On A True Story, with the…

Ghost Sweeper Mikami Collection 4 (DVD)

I love the fact that, after about twenty years of having an intimate connection with Japan and the different anime showing there, that Section 23 can dig up such a great title. Ghost Sweeper Mikami is a show that originally aired from April of 1993 until March of 1994, with 45 episodes (and 1 hour-long film) that aired soon after. The show itself has an interesting premise – the rapid…

3:33 – The First Thousand Days (June , 2011 Parallel Thought LTD)

The art of Storytelling is as ancient and universal as humanity itself. Here begins 3:33’s own tale of Creation. Throughout history, our need to understand where we come from has been evidenced in hieroglyphics, mythology, fairy tales, folklore, and religion. With The First Thousand Days, 3:33 explores this mystery of existence and leads us down its enchanted yet haunting path. If EP-1 was an introduction to 3;33, this is the…

For Fans of TV on the Radio, Crystal Castles and Sleigh Bells: Botanical Bullets Releases We Bleed Fluorescent on June 14, 2011

If you like your electronic music twisted and manipulated, full of layers just dying to be pulled apart, then Botanical Bullets’ We Bleed Fluorescent is for you. The EP, which is due out June 14, is full of carefully layered samples, effects-laden guitars, synth and soul-infused vocals. The first single, “Fantastic Romantic,” is the story of a broken-hearted android told with effects-saturated vocals and noise. The second single “We Bleed…

Ralph Peterson’s Unity Project – Outer Reaches (CD)

I believe that Ralph Peterson is one of the world’s most slept-on drummers. Sure, there were a few years that ey attempted to break it big (with the Harrison-Blanchard Group and OTB), but I feel that eir path to the top has to have Peterson’s unique style in front and center. “Outer Reaches”, the latest album by Peterson and eir Unity Project, is a title that looks to do just…

Heroes of Bikini Bottom (DVD)

While I have heard much gnashing of teeth about the irregular schedule that Spongebob Squarepants and other Nickelodeon cartoons have, I feel that this allows the creative team to keep the shows fresh without experiencing burnout as rapidly as other children’s show. Nowhere is this better seen than in Heroes of Bikini Bottom, the Spongebob DVD that is touching down on June 14th. The 88 minute-runtime of this DVD gives…

The Avengers: Earth’s Mightiest Heroes (DVD)

I keep pretty abreast of the different DC comics’ cartoons, but I have not (until this 2-DVD set) really had the chance or the ability to properly get into the different Marvel franchises. If you are in a similar boat as me, there is no reason why you should not search out both volumes of The Avengers: Earth’s Mightiest Heroes. This release hits on all cylinders, beginning with the unique…

Remy Martin VSOP (80 Proof)

We reviewed Remy Martin a few years back, but felt that we did not give the spirit as detailed of courage as we would have liked. This time around, we have familiarized ourselves with the grand scheme of cognacs and feel that the Remy Martin VSOP may just provide the best quality for value. The Remy Martin VSOP has one of the largest distributions of any cognacs present in American…

Jake Allen – Etherica (CD)

2011 has been a pretty dead year for music. We’ve went through the releases of countless artists in a variety of genres, from Christian to punk to metal and even classical, and very few acts really seem to shine. I contend that Jake Allen’s Etherica is one of a small number of titles that ultimately deserve repeated listens. Allen’s work, beginning with the disc’s first track “Ascension”, is of the…
