Permanent Tag: Music Rating: Good Hits: 35 Comments: 1 DJ Krush - Sun is Shining DJ Krush - Sun is Shining What is the significance of your name, DJ Krush? How did you get that name? DJ Krush: I didn't choose this name. It was given to me. When I was starting out in my career there were these two black artists who I knew in Tokyo, at that time I was working with my brother, and these guys said "Uh, you guys are a little off..." Those guys gave me the name Krush and my younger brother was called Bang. So it was Krush-Bang. Sounds like a car wreck, but that's how I got my name. What first drew your attention to hip-hop? Krush: In 1985 there was an event held by Wildstyle in Japan. They came to Japan and took over an entire floor in a department store. I was just amazed by them. Who and what are your influences? Krush: I listen a lot of different types of music. You know, rock , jazz, in addition to hip-hop, but what seems to connect with me the most is his-hop. So primarily my influences are what people now call the old style or Old school of artists, like Kurtis Blow. Those were my first influences. In terms of DJs, there's Grandmaster Flash, and DST., I think those were my first impressions (of hip-hop) and my first influences. Also my father listened to a great deal of James Brown and Miles Davis, so I?d been exposed to them from a very early age, so there are those influences, too. How would you describe your sound? Krush: Well it's just that I've listened to a lot of music over the years and I was raised in Tokyo and combining all those elements is expressed in my sound. It's that simple. What is expressed in my music is a result of those various influences. And hopefully my personality is infused in it. You know, the whole thing is just a combination of a lot of different elements that are me. What images and emotions do you want your music to invoke in the listener? Krush: What you're asking is what the person is thinking as they listen to my music? Well I think some people might listen to it, like hear my music and think "Wow, it's really weird." But someplace in-between, in some aspect or another, I hope that people appreciate it and like it. Do you see your music as a universal language? Krush: Well I don't know if I would use the term 'universal language' but if people listen to my music and they like it and get good feelings from it that's all that matters.

Headline Tag: Television Rating: Amazing Hits: 154 Comments: 0 The History Of The World Backwards: Ep 4 The History Of The World Backwards: Ep 4 In this instalment of Rob Newman's The History Of The World Backwards, viewers discover how a gathering of anti-sociability breaks out over Britain from the late 1800s. Neighbours quarrel and leave the cities to go and live in rural, isolated cottages, often deliberately affecting or inventing an unintelligible local dialect, so as to discourage conversation and enquiry. Meanwhile, ministers deny that the introduction of faith schools will mean only monks will get an education. Middle-class parents move close to monasteries so as to be in the catchment area, just in case. Mozart gives a press conference at which he declares that his new opera will stay true to the key operatic principles: nostalgia for British rock acts of the Eighties. And John Milton takes inspiration from the Kaiser Chiefs and begins using the words "thou" and "thee". War is strategically planned: in 1763 countries around the world get together and decide to hold the Seven Years War. It proves such a fabulous success that in 1648 it is decided to hold the Thirty Years War. So many fortunes are made in those 30 years that an even more ambitious sequel is planned: the Hundred Years War. And what of love in reverse? We discover, via a docu-soap, how relationships work in Backwards History. Love starts with cold disinterest and passion grows with age. Couples sleep in separate beds for the first 10 years. The History Of The World Backwards stars Rob Newman, Richard McCabe, Lucy Liemann, Colin McFarlane, Anton Lesser, Jim Howick and Su Lin Looi. User: spam_vigilante Oct 5, 2008 6:14 AM





Headline Tag: Television Rating: Amazing Hits: 231 Comments: 0 The History of the World Backwards Ep 3 The History of the World Backwards Ep 3 Rob Newman attempts to explain the sudden drop in numbers of successful women in business, engineering, science and management, as his series telling The History Of The World Backwards continues. In 1867, United States businessmen seeking a cheap, abundant energy source with which to replace oil and coal hit upon an ingenious solution: Negro slaves. Their plotting is overheard by black billionaire philanthropist Dougie Fredericks, who tries to foil their dastardly plan using a hard-to-conceal Edison phonograph for the world's last wire-tap. This leads to a quick getaway on the world's last aeroplane flight with wayward aeronautical engineer Orville Wright before Dougie can place the evidence before The Judge. George Stevenson gazes with pride at The Rocket on its maiden journey, only to find that his new-design steam locomotive has been bombed with tags from hip-hop graffiti artists. Meanwhile, John Merrick – the Elephant Man – runs away from St Barts hospital to join a travelling freak show. He explains how, at St Barts, he'd had a conversation with Charles Darwin who explained his new theory of "intelligent design". In 1610, to save Galileo from being burnt at the stake, Kepler is forced to reveal the secret of solar panels to the Duchess of Padua, who orders him to "rig up an improvised device like the A-Team". Written by and starring Rob Newman, the series features a cast including Richard McCabe, Lucy Liemann, Colin McFarlane, Anton Lesser, Jim Howick and Su Lin Looi.
