My words of advice: * Drink very sparingly * Don’t do drugs * Don’t smoke * Cut down on sugar (but fat food is ok if it’s quality food) * Join a gym * Take a walk every morning The bottom line: it’s matter over mind —...

    mp3/iPods Ruining Music?

    Oh no, not again! Ok, the over-compression shenanigans have been discussed to death here and elsewhere, but the thing about cutting frequencies I have not heard of before. Although, it sounds like one of those things the audio-coots get all jazzed up about, while everyone else tend not to give a...

    Because, you know, an extraterrestrially adept footie-player would never be ignored by the masses no matter his personal shortcomings, while musical virtuosos are doomed to a life in oblivion, plucking away in solitude at some remote subway station, the iPodious passers-by not even susceptible...
