R.E.M.’s 2011 swan song anthology, with three amazing new tracks. Weird to realize that R.E.M. was also a competent country and punk band.
Antonio Carlos Jobim’s “Wave” and Sub Dub Micromachine’s “Settle for Force” albums
Sneaker Pimps’ “Squaring the Circle”
It’s a good album. It’s a good reunion. But I’m not sure it’s a good Sneaker Pimps reunion album.
SimEarth
Got this absolute classic running in SheepShaver. Nostalgia overload.
MajorVoice – This Lonely Ark
An absolute triumph of an album.
The Loremen Podcast
A Mighty-Boosh-esque comedy podcast on local legends and obscure curiosities from days of yore.
Black Book
A story- and atmosphere-heavy spellcasting RPG, heavily based on Ural mountain folklore.
“Midnight Mass” on Netflix
Some of the monster elements are a bit conventional so far, but on the whole another horror triumph limited series from Mike Flanagan.
Dr. Mario
No not JUST because my girlfriend immediately started kicking my a** when we both learned to play…
Shining Force
Want to learn real game design? Play more retro games. “Shining Force” for Sega Genesis is my favorite 16bit RPG, after Lunar: Silver Star Story.
