An Elektro Tribute to Iron Maiden A record label in Amsterdam has
assembled 14 electro-fied covers of classic tracks by the British
metal band. Vocoders, drum machines, and analog synths galore, plus
influences as diverse as industrial, synthpop, and Miami bass. Loving

You decide -- the entire album is available as streaming audio from
this Dutch radio station.

Turncoats in Bermuda shorts. Arianna Huffington continues to
skewer offshore tax shelters in her latest Salon opinion piece.
Despite her patriot-speak denouncing these corporations for avoiding
taxes while our young men are getting ready to die for their country,
she does shine the light on a growing problem – “basic fairness
and economic justice” – or, the lack of it. How can the average
American not be outraged at this, when so many of us are expected to
be able to account for even the smallest charitable donation we would
dare to use as a tax write-off?

Last week in LA, I went to a
Channel
101 screening -- monthly events where a edgy creatives show short
films before a live audience, who in turn vote the work on or off the
proverbial viewing island. The project isn't a cable TV show yet, but
it ought to be. I understand they recently shot a pilot for Fox, so
perhaps it will.
One of the teams who participate regularly in the Channel 101
showdowns is The Lonely
Island, and they've just posted a bunch of their work online. It's
terrific stuff. One of their pieces, which screened at last week's
event, is a dry, deadpan music video performed by two guys, called,
uh, "Just 2 Guyz." (MPEG-4 Link,
MPEG-1
Link, 2 min.). I loved their "Nintendo" animated short, too (MPEG / Quicktime, 3
min.)
Episodes of the Lonely Island short series The 'Bu are here (Link), with Sarah
Chalke of Scrubs and Roseanne fame. Other celeb
links -- Brooke Shields has a 5-minute bit in the begining of Episode
2: Regarding Ardy. (Link). Kal
Penn (of Harold and Kumar and Gilmore Girls) plays
Fred in Episode 2. A source close to the project says, "Kiefer
Sutherland interrupted the filming of episode 1, then told all sorts
of fanciful embellishments about it on Leno and Letterman. (Link)."

Island, and Link to the Channel
