Played some Beautiful Katamari these days… Made me remember how much I fell in love with the original Katamari Damacy and its one-of-a-kind OST some six years ago. The formula might have grown stale by now but at least they never stopped delivering with the music.

Gazpacho – Vera
Θανάσης Παπακωσταντίνου – Νυχτέρι
Ανάμεσα στο Βέγα,
τον Ντενέμπ και τον Αλτάιρ
υπάρχει μία θέση του ουρανού
όπου θα πάω σαν γίνω
σκόνη αστρική,
για ‘κει σας κλείνω ραντεβού…
Και η ώρα πάει 6 το απόγευμα…
Ross Daly with Huun Huur Tu & The Trio Chemirani – White Dragon “To Moiroloi tou Orfanou” (Το μοιρολόι του Ορφανού)
How’s this for change? Sitting for tens of hours at the computer working on the FINAL STRETCH in the middle of August is certainly beneficial to my musical escapades! Back to work…
Bastion – The Singer (Zia’s Song) Remastered
Also known as: “Build that Wall”.
Playing Bastion these slow, hot summer days nights. The day I was waiting for finally came, that is, the game to be on a ridiculous sale on the Steam summer sales: €5+ for the game and the soundtrack. What a steal. Almost as big of a steal as this song’s picking of my insides. Truly a great moment when it is first heard in-game.
Hard Sunshine
This is the song of robotic cicadas.
Bittersweet music from Civilization V
Discovered from the Civilization V soundtrack. The Civ series, apart from it probably being my favourite game series (definitely the one I’ve thrown the most hours into, hands down), has some of the greatest music ever, original pieces as well as licensed/older works such as as the above.
I will deliberately not comment on the fact that I would probably only learn about the existence of these pieces from playing the game. Oops.
Εκλογές 2012: Round 2; FIGHT!
Αναγκαστικό εκλογικό ποστ, ακόμα και αν δεν πιστεύω ότι έχω τίποτα να πω που δεν έχει ειπωθεί ήδη.
Ό,τι κι αν συμβεί, όσο εκπλαγούμε απόψε, ευχάριστα ή δυσάρεστα, με το ποιος θα βγει πρώτος, όσο δυνατή κι αν είναι η Χρυσή Αυγή, απλά ας θυμόμαστε: ο λαός αξίζει τις κυβερνήσεις που εκλέγει. Ας είμαστε έτοιμοι μετά παλικαρίσια να αντιμετωπίσουμε ό,τι μέλλει γενέσθαι.
Desperation
Just in time for the pre-elective mood. Let’s all go vote in a state of desperation and good things are surely going to happen! 🙂
On a completely different note:
“Around 30 songs were recorded for the Insurgentes album. 10 were included on the final album, and another 5 on the bonus disc that came with the special edition. Here is another one that was left unfinished at the time, but I finished and mixed it in January 2010. Gavin Harrison on drums.”
So, of 30 inevitably great songs, we’ve only heard 15. Right… Here’s one of the rest.
