The years and the phase of ChromeMusic and YUM YUM was left deserted and abondened by Chrome. No production. No Love. No One Around.
We had to break down the Matrix somewhere else.
“Life can be over in just an instance, so see it and especially witness it while you can. Don’t go running after pleasure or pain, as we all do most of the time. Witness life unfold in front of you and offer no resistance. You ‘ll be in for a world of wonders” So do what you love and love what you do! This man obviously did…
Philip Seymour Hoffman died today and since i never write any kind of memorial words for the deceased, this is only a farewell song to remember all the great movies in which he has starred and which have in many cases become some of my favourite pieces in modern-day cinema (Capote, The Big Lebowski, The Master, Moneyball etc). He looked and acted almost too real in this world of supermodels, perfectly symmetrical faced actors and maybe that among his undeniable acting skills is what made him so believable. Every one of his character portrayals were honest and crafted with the utmost integrity and there was barely a finer actor in Hollywood. So every time we are reminded of death, we tend to mourn the dead, since we see those little fragments that make up our identities and egos, disappear one by one, and what we are really doing is mourning our own fragile existence and making somebodys death about us and our suffering and “how hurt we are”.. We are reminded of our own inescapable death and we are given proof that we ourselves are finite, and that everything constantly changes, dissolves, vanishes and finally disappears into nothingness… And we are afraid of that. We are brought up in a culture that endlessly tries to escape death, run away from aging and struggles with the urge to have reality conform to our own mind made structures and moralities. We don’t speak about it we make it a taboo and everything we do in this “normal life” is motivated by the illusionary hope of escaping death… Well life and reality do not bend to superimposed immaturity from a fragmented mind. The universe bends to a still one, one that accepts everything and that salutes death as part of ‘what is’ and that celebrates the dead for the moments that were given to you (with them). This actor gave us many. So here’s to you and the fragility of life and the inevitability of death. It’s just a ride, man :)
EDIT: I received a few emails saying that an Jack Johnsoon song wasn’t appropriate and didn’t have the right tonality. To you, all i can say is: “Read the Above!”
One of the best and maybe the most interesting beatmaker slash producer to emerge in the last couple of months is definitely 22 year old Kygo from Norway, who is still pretty new on Soundcloud and Facebook, but who deliveres an distinctive production style which sets him apart from everybody else. Always deep and moody with those keys that sound like some spaced out electronic version of a pan flute played by the norse gods somewhere in the troll mountains of Norway. Have a listen, get inspired by these uplifting mystic sounds and get the free downloads simply by liking Kygo’s FacebookPage. So here’s a perfect playlist for sunday meditation with the best songs he has to offer.

After everyone was cheering this movie so much, here’s a roundup of all the Gifs i found and liked, mostly from IMGUR – The best page in the universe (sorry Maddox). Useful in your chats and conversations. Here we go:
Ok time to wrap it up. Share the collection and see you soon with more Blackjack and Hookers!
By now there exist probably more #twerkteams than WOW clans. Figures.
If you’re a regular reader of our blog you’ll know I’m a big fan of Le Youth. So guess what, now he’s getting the TWRK treatment just like our very own Dan Gerous.
Not your average just throw in an 808 clap but an approach that doesn’t kill the original vibe of the song.
Not much more that I can say but #twerkteam asseeeeeeembleeeeee!
