MaxAttacK's RECommendations
wahaha. i've been meaning to do a REmix of the original Live Acts, but once chig put this out, I could no longer resist! also this might be a not-so-subtle way of me asking him to REmix more of the song, ahem.
Yea, effects! ... that is: added them to coldplayisawesome's mix. Also tweaked the colour tones a bit.
I've been meaning to show my mom GarageBand for a long time. When we were hanging out on my birthday a few nights ago, it seemed a good time. We made a little ditty. Then Major Tom made this great stop-motion animation to it, which I just cut up a bit, et voilà.
When my mom and I sat down to RECord something, we didn't know what story we were going to tell. We just sang a little something. And now it's turned into this. I love when that happens.

Hello again... Well, it’s been a little while. Thanks to everyone who contributed their love and support this last month since dan died. I’m still feeling pretty low these days, but I’m looking forward to taking a few ginger steps back to work. I know that’s what he’d want. So, without further ado, I’d like to finally announce a project that’s been in the works for a good six months or so -- HITRECORD.ORG presents Joseph Gordon-Levitt RE:Acting & RECording -- a college tour. We’re going to do live presentations at a handful of universities around the country to speak to young, talented, ambitious artists and invite them into our collaborative community. Our initial plans had been grander in scope, but considering everything that’s happened in the last month, we decided to scale it down. I’ll only be going to campuses in L.A. and New York, and I apologize to the other schools I had planned on also visiting: Ohio State, University of Pittsburgh, Vasser and University of Rhode Island. I doubt this will be the last time we do this sort of thing, and I look forward to making up those dates in the future. These presentations will be a bit less of a “rockin’ evening out” as were the Summer in the City and SxSW shows and a bit more discussion-oriented like the Sundance presentations. I’m looking forward to really delving into hitRECord’s collective creative process, the general state of mass media today, and the broader questions that have faced artists since forever. And I’m confident that we’ll all end up working with some cool and talented new hitRECorders. The dates are: UCLA - Nov 8, UPenn - Nov 17, Columbia - Nov 19, NYU - Nov 20, and USC - Nov 22. Needless to say, we’ll be RECording the whole time so nobody will miss anything, and so we can all remix those RECords into new Results. And of course, as we play various exemplary RECords at these presentations, the contributing artists will share in the tour’s profits. It’ll be a gradual process getting back into the swing of things, but the notion of working with you guys again makes me feel good and optimistic. thanks again <3 J |
