Fanfare for the common man. I posted that. I think Kodiak listened to it but obviously too loud and fried a few cells.

Use this track:

You may want to start keeping notes and sketches in a notebook. This way, when you upgrade, you can compare.

Yup. I stand corrected. I have listened to Aaron Copeland before. Guess I didn’t really look at the composer etc just got engrossed in the music. I had it pegged in my brain as “ the west wing song”. Ha.

Definitely part of my rotation of tunes now.

It’s hard to keep up with all the different music and keep it organized for future re listening or referencing.

Kodiak, you will enjoy keeping a notebook. Write and doodle in it what you hear and feel. It's a lot of fun. Then again, I am effin' nuts! But I like it. smile

I'll just add here that Axiom is causing me great problems. GREAT PROBLEMS! Ever since I upgraded my 600v2 to 800v4, it's all been down-hill from there. Then Ian introduce real wood finish and now I'm not only hooked on the sound but also woodies.

I’ve got no issue being nuts or weird. I fought it a long time and realized that the only one I was fooling was me! I have a secret fetish of notebooks and notepads and journals. Even pens and pencils.

I’ll start making notes.
God help me.

As for Axiom addiction, I’m fighting it. We ll see how long I last. I want to know if there is v5 or some newer product coming out that I’m gonna want that fits the bill in my space.

As for all things wood and fine finish, don’t even get me started!!!

What is the one go to sound track for showing off axiom speakers? Whats your goto track/video to play when demoing your sound system? For me right now, my fav is the "the good the bad the ugly" on you tube.

btw, that was funny Mojo... "hooked on woodies"...hehe


Lots of speakers from many
manufactures...mostly Axiom

Yup. I can’t resist. Nice fresh notepads and gel pens.
I was in the Walmart in Cochrane a couple summers ago and bought a box of 50 mechanical pencils. Could control myself. How ridiculous eh?

Edit: What do I need all those pencils for?! Guess I needed some dopamine. But they are really nice pencils.

Yes, I still love Babymetal, and a couple of days ago they put out an official music video for "BxMxC", which is one of my favorite tracks off their most recent album, though not on the US release. I had to import the Japanese release to get it, along with one other track. But it's on Spotify now. I don't know how many more albums they'll put out after already losing one of the three girls, but I'm hoping they do at least one more. While I like the new album with highlights like this track, PA PA YA!! (feat. F.HERO), and Shanti Shanti Shanti, I still think their first two albums are stronger overall, so it would be nice if they could go out on the highest note possible.

Rebulx,
Lots to choose from-
Paul Dukas-the Sorcerers Apprentice

Gustav Holst- from the Planets
Jupiter the Bringer of Jollity
Mars the Bringer of War

Or something a little more recent-
Joe Bonamassa-from Live at the Greek Theater
Cadillac Assembly Line (Albert King)
Going Down (Don Nix)
Breaking Up Someone’s Home (Albert King)
Thrill is Gone (B B King)

Don’t mind me , I like the blues.

Enjoy,
Jeff
