    Resonance FM - Boris Vian Show at half-seven tonight (Sunday)

    My friend is doing a half hour show on Resonance FM at half-seven about the French jazz critic/musician and author. I think she has some transcripts of the legendary shows he broadcast to NY in the sixties so it should be cool. http://resonancefm.com/listen

    Frankel (and horse racing in general)

    So Frankel retired unbeaten yesterday and some people are saying that he's the greatest horse of all time. But they are also saying the same thing about Black Caviar and a few years back they were saying the same thing about The Sea The Stars and also Kauto Star or whatever it was. Is this a...

    Holy Motors

    Weirdest thing I've seen in the cinema for a long while - I loved the gasps of surprise when he bit that girl's fingers off - but what was it about? Everyone keeps saying "It's about cinema" and maybe it is but is that all that there is to it? I'm not convinced.

    Jersey Threatens to Leave UK

    I don't really think that this would happen or care if it does but I'm interested in the wider implications for tax havens. Is the UK government (or US for that matter) really clamping down now? What does the average citizen of Jersey or another tax haven think of the fact that his/her whole...

    Why I Love Keane

    This is really fucking funny http://www.guardian.co.uk/music/2012/jun/14/william-boyd-why-love-keane Can't work out if he's deliberately echoing Patrick Bateman but I don't think it is deliberate, I think it's real.

    Dennis Potter

    After re-watching The Singing Detective recently and concluding that it's still the best thing I've ever seen on telly (making a post-modern musical that is so emotionally affecting is an incredible achievement) I wondered why I had never checked out his other stuff. So we watched Lipstick On...

    Bus advert wars - Round 2

    So for the second time in the last few years a Christian group has made a direct response to a bus advert. Seems to be a deliberate and aggressive tactic that they are employing - and if it is intended to rile up the original group I think it will work like a charm. Not totally sure what else...

    Lana Del Rey - Born to Die

    Don't think that there is a thread on this yet. I was agnostic about the first track I heard from her but this one is amazing. The video, where stoned yet perfect automatons re-enact Wild at Heart, complements the Chris Isaak meets Portishead music perfectly. I can't remember the last time...

    Photograph pricing

    My flatmate did some work unpaid taking still photos during a pop-video shoot. Now the guy is asking to use one of the photos for the front cover of the single. How much should my friend ask for? The person who did the song is a pretty well-known club promoter and I think he's been behind the...
