Rammstein's Countdown to Halloween Honorable Mentions Part 2: The Spooking

These were some other worthy films that were watched over this spooky season that I highly recommend

Starting With....

The Exorcist (1973, dir. William Friedkin)

A truly haunting experience, filled with dream like images, cold exterior and intriguing story.

Candyman (1992, dir. Bernard Rose)

Another beautiful film filled with excellent shot and honestly probably one of the most romantic horror films I've ever seen.

The Boy (2016, dir. William Brent Bell)

An interesting spin on the haunted doll trope. One of my favourites.

Saw II (2005, dir. Darren Lynn Bousman)

An excellent fallow up to Saw (2004), compelling storyline complete with amazing talents of Tobin Bell and Shawnee Smith. Also, it wouldn't be right not to watch this year with the newest addition (Saw X) being released.

Freddy Vs. Jason (2003, dir. Ronny Yu)

Every Halloween season it is traditional for horror geeks to come together and witness the battle that changed the course of horrorstery (horror history).

Hereditary (2018, dir. Ari Aster)

Toni Collette was robbed. That's all I have to say.

The Hills Have Eyes (1977, dir. Wes Craven)

Always an adventure to watch this one and good Autumn camp out in the woods film to watch (maybe in a car RV or something) plus 70s Wes Craven movies rock.

Funny Games (1997, dir. Micheal Hankeke)

A great arthouse like horror that honestly spins the genre on its heads: I'm talking 4th wall breaks and much much more! It's like you're watching make your choice game play or T. V show very interesting movie, personally one of my favourites.

American Psycho (2000, dir. Marry Harron)

Another film that makes you think and an excellent social commentary on violence, conformity, corporate greed and more.

Night of the Living Dead (1968, dir. George A. Romero)

Another iconic film that is traditional to watch every horror season, so ahead of its time.

Well, I hope you guys enjoy this countdown as much I I did. I definitely plan on doing more things like this an honestly next Halloween might do anoth Rammstein's Countdown, try and switch it up. Not sure what I'll try to do exactly but I'll figure it out.

You guys might be seeing some more film blogs and essay postings soon...eyes peeled👀

Happy Halloween!

[tobin-heaths]

Forever 

request: Tobin,christen and alex going to a ring store cause Tobin is going to ask r to marry her on christmas

pairing: Tobin Heath x Reader

words: 1244

"Babe? Should I do the dishes now or leave them for tomorrow?" You called out of the kitchen.

Tobin and you were spending Christmas together this year, all alone, visiting your families the next day.

It was her idea and you gladly accepted it. Having time for yourself was rare the past half year after everything that happened with the World Cup.

There was nothing more relaxing than being home watching some movies with the person you loved most, a fire burning in the background while it snowed outside.

"Babe?" You called again not receiving any answer from your girlfriend, getting a little worried.

Tobin told you she would set up the TV for some more cute Christmas movies while you got the plates and food back into the kitchen.

You just enjoyed the best Christmas dinner on earth, Tobin and you cooking it together dancing around the kitchen to hits like 'Last Christmas' or 'All I want for Christmas is you'.

Tobin took care of the roasted Turkey and gravy while you worked on the mashed potatoes and vegetables.

"Tobin, why aren't you answering?" You threw the dish cloth into the sink and hurried over to the living room.

The first thing you noticed was the beautiful Christmas tree shining bright together with countless lit candles all over the room.

Your mouth opened in shock and amazement. Still, Tobin was nowhere to be seen.

"Babe, what's going on? Where are you?" Suddenly you heard footsteps drawing closer from behind you.

You whirled around and found Tobin kneeling in front of you, a big smile on her face holding a small black box.

"Oh my god, Tobin!" You felt like fainting, how could this moment be real? Tears started to gather in your eyes.

"Y/N Y/L/N, I've known you for a long time now and you never left my side. You were the one helping me along the way, always supporting me, cheering me up and kissing it better whenever I got hurt. You're my best friend and my lover, I couldn't ask for a better gift in life. I love you with all I am and I don't want to spend the rest of my life without you, so– Y/N, will you marry me?" She asked.

For a moment the world around you stood still, there was nothing else but that beautiful woman in front of you asking you to become her wife. The tears were now freely running down your cheeks.

"Yes! Yes! Oh my god, a thousand times yes! Oh god!" You yelled and jumped into her arms eagerly kissing her.

It was a messy kiss with your tears wetting her skin and lips as well. Tobin giggled as she held your waist with one arm.

"Yes? It's a yes!" She said happily and opened the box. Inside laid the most beautiful ring you've ever seen.

One hand covered your mouth in shock as she slipped the ring onto your finger. It fit perfectly.

"Tobin this is unbelievable. This ring is gorgeous, wow! I love you so much!" Hugging her once again she easily lifted you up and twirled you around.

"I'm shaking, my goodness. I don't think any kind of Christmas gift could ever top yours from now on." You giggled, wiping a few tears away and looked at the ring.

The light from the candles made the diamond shine brilliantly. "It's a special one, I've had it made just for you." She spoke.

"Made just for me? Did anyone know about this though?" You raised your eyebrows.

Tobin laughed and pulled you into her lap as you sat down on the couch.

"Yes, Alex and Christen actually went with me once the ring was finished. They've kept it a secret, I'm impressed." While Tobin spoke you couldn't take your eyes off the ring.

"Tell me all about it, please." You begged and gave her a faint kiss on the lips.

"Alright."

2 months ago...

"Tobin!" Tobin looked up from her phone and saw Christen and Alex walking in her direction.

She put her phone back into her pocket and stood up to greet her friends.

"Guys, I'm so glad you could make it. I know the schedules are packed and busy but I really appreciate it." She said hugging both of them.

"You're sure about this? Does Y/N know about this?" Tobin nodded eagerly, she was always sure of everything she did, always planning everything way ahead.

"Absolutely 100 percent sure. I love her and want to spend the rest of my life with her and no, she doesn't know about this. So please, don't let it slip to anyone. I want it to be a surprise." Alex grinned and Christen patted her shoulder.

"When do you plan on proposing?" Christen asked. They had started walking through the city of Portland searching for Tobin's jeweler.

"Thought about this for a long time but Christmas is coming up and she absolutely loves it. Guess I'll do it on Christmas." Her National teammates squealed in happiness and she felt herself blushing a little.

"Guys calm down, please." She laughed.

Arriving at the store they all went inside and took a good look at all kinds of jewelry. There were rings, earrings, necklaces, watches and so much more. Not to mention their prices.

"Good evening, ladies. Miss Heath, welcome back!" A man in his early 60's raised his voice from behind the counter.

"George, good to see you again. I'm here to pick up the ring." Tobin walked towards him, Christen following her while Alex decided to look at the watches some more.

"Ah, yes indeed. The ring is all ready and done. Excuse me while I get it." He said and disappeared into the back, returning shortly after with a small black box placing it in front of the Thorns' player.

Her fingers opened the box and gasped as she saw the ring for the first time. "Alex! Get over here! You're missing everything!" Christen scolded and waved her over with a glare.

"Oh my god! Y/N is so gonna love this!" Alex said and bent down to have a closer look at it.

"We measured the band to the exact size you told me and should fit perfectly. Its band is made of 18k white gold, simple without any extra stones, just like requested. Now to the stone. This brilliant round diamond weighs 3 carat and its clarity has a level of VS2. Color is graded to L. All in all it's the perfect engagement ring. Has it met your expectations, ma'am?" He explained, touching the ring with gloves and pointing everything out.

"It's perfect!" Tobin replied and turned to her friends. "What do you guys think? Would she like it?" She asked nervously.

"Tobin, this ring is gorgeous, only a fool wouldn't fall for it. And besides, you're coming with the package.. why would she ever say no?" Alex laughed and wiggled her eyebrows.

"Alex, it's no time for jokes. The ring is perfect, for sure she's going to love it! I'm proud of you, Tobin." Christen playfully rolled her eyes at Alex then hugged Tobin.

And that's how you ended up getting engaged to Tobin Heath. You had to pinch yourself several times to make sure it wasn’t a dream.

Later in the evening a photo was posted to your Instagram, showing Tobin holding your hand, the ring the center of attention.

The caption read 'It's a yes!'.

[migleefulmoments]

Ask 1/2: So I'm not trying to de-legitimize the marriage or anything when I ask this, because plenty of couples have wedding ceremonies without being married in a legal sense. But up until this point, I assumed Ben officiated their wedding. I read the Vogue article today where it mentioned Darren and Mia officiated their own wedding. This actually isn't legally recognized as marriage in most states, including Louisiana. In California it is, but you still need to have a special marriage license

Ask 2/2: and have an officer of the court sign a document with witnesses present for the union to be legally recognized in the state of CA, if you choose to do it without an officiant. Is the thought that they did that, then had the ceremony in Louisiana? Or is it possible they're not legally married? I know Darren mentioned a ton of paperwork being involved but I just found that odd because in states like PA you can do a wedding this way without the added hassle, and have it be legal everywhere

Darren said they officiated their own wedding in several interviews and it would appear that he meant that in the sense that they didn’t have one single officiant who ran the ceremony from beginning to end. Instead, Darren and Mia chose their friends to each do their own part. It’s clear from the photos we have seen that a lot of people were part of the ceremony. I am sure that there is much we did not see and therefore have no idea what happened . They were very generous with photos of the reception but stingy with the wedding itself...not that I blame them. Weddings are public events but there is a difference between sharing with your loved ones and friends and sharing with the world -especially when s one fans do not respect boundaries. 

One of the StarKids is ordained and performed the legal part of the ceremony-I believe it was Joe Walker.  We know this because his girlfriend shared that he performed the ceremony and that he had performed another wedding prior to Mia and Darren’s. Lea and Zandy were married by Ryan Murphy and Jane Lynch married Becca Tobin (X) and her husband.  It seems the Glee cast is just not into big religious ceremonies. Nobody questioned the legality of Lea or Becca’s unions.  

I have no reason to believe they aren’t married. For one, Darren has said they are married and a lot of their friends-and their family- attended the wedding week and spent the next month gushing about how incredible the experience was.  I simply don’t believe that Darren lies about important things like this personal life. When he doesn’t want to tell something personal he changes the subject or he tells a joke- often a self-deprecating joke-but he doesn’t lie.  He was asked about married life and he volunteered that Mia is changing her name. I don’t believe he would share a personal fact on national tv if it was untrue mostly because it would require that he continue to tell the lie for the rest of his life and Darren is smarter than that. Celebs want to tell funny stories during talkshow interviews and a few have been caught telling stories that aren’t true or didn’t happen to them (in 2002, Juliana Margulies was booked for her first Tonight Show with Jay Leno and she had no funny stories so she used a story George Clooney gave her. But he had already given it to Kelly Preston who also shared it on the Tonight Show  and 8 years later he was booked on the Tonight Show with Juliana and he pranked her by having the producers splice the two interviews together (X)) but those are one-and-done stories, stories that will never be brought up again; stories that won’t haunt them for life. They certainly aren’t stories that will require them to lie from that day forward.    

Mia changed her name and you have to provide legal documents in order to do that. Having a minister or a judge at the ceremony in NOLA isn’t the only way to achieve a legal marriage. Like you said- they could have been legal married in CA before or after the NOLA wedding but they also could have a ordained friend perform the duties necessary for the marriage to be legal. I am not a lawyer but I believe that if the marriage is legally recognized in one state, it is recognized in all 50 states- even if it didn’t meet the criteria for a legal marriage in that state. In other words, once you have met the criteria for a legal marriage in any one state, that marriage is then recognized in all 50 states regardless of whether it would have met the criteria in that state.  The same is true of driver’s license- once you get one in one state you are allowed to drive in all 50 states even though the process and testing requirements are different in all 50 states.  Any lawyers want to chime in?

Polyamorous Tobin is actually something that can be so personal

Musique Concrète and Other Experimental And Electronic Music

New Post has been published on https://grahamstoney.com/music/musique-concrete-and-other-experimental-and-electronic-music

Musique Concrète and Other Experimental And Electronic Music

In the subject Creative Music Technology at university last semester, I was asked to listen to a collection of experimental and electronic music to stimulate my creative imagination, and to write what I liked and didn't like about it. Here's my rather cynical take on the genre.

Musique Concrète

Pierre Schaeffer and Pierre Henry – Symphonie pour un Homme Seul

This piece reminded me of Strauss’s Symphonia Domestica; only less musical. I’m a Homme Seul (single man) and my life doesn’t sound anything like this. In his book La musique concrète, Schaeffer described the work as “an opera for blind people…”. Haven’t they suffered enough?

Edgard Varèse – Poème Électronique

The audio equivalent of Luis Bunuel & Salvador Dali’s Un Chien Andalou.

Does to my ears what the asbestos coating on the walls of the Philips Pavilion at the 1958 Brussels World’s Fair for which it was commissioned, would do to my lungs.

György Ligeti – Artikulation

George Lucas must owe Ligeti millions in royalties for R2D2’s sound effects. Initially I thought I was joking when I first wrote that, but I’ve since discovered that he was actually trying to create a sort of phonetic speech in electronic music, which pretty much fits R2D2’s dialogue. Plus, the title is German for “articulation”. That should have been a giveaway.

I thought this piece might make more sense to me if I played it backwards, so I dropped it into Logic Pro X and reversed it. I couldn’t tell the difference. Perhaps I would have enjoyed it more if I listened to it in the original quadraphonic. I’ll just end noting that Ligeti abandoned electronic music after composing this piece.

Iannis Xenakis – Concret PH

2 minutes and 44 seconds of breaking glass to my ears. I think I’d rather listen to Kraftwerk.

Karlheinz Stockhausen – Kontakte

It’s long. It’s too long. I think this is how Jacob Collier learned to play piano in his mother’s womb; but look at him now. The title is German for “Contacts”, which I think Stockhausen interpreted as “Just hit the things.” Maybe it sounds better in the original quadraphonic.

Stockhausen was evidently a pioneer of the extended dance remix, as the work exists in several versions: “Nr. 12”, “Nr. 12½” and “Nr. 12⅔”

Bernard Parmegiani - Accidents / harmoniques

Parmegiani had studied mime before turning his hand to electro-acoustic composition, and in this piece it really shows. From the album De Natura Sonorum (the nature of sound). I felt like there were Martians in my head listening to this. Surely he’s just playing a joke on us.

Pauline Oliveiros – Bye Bye Butterfly

Bids farewell to the institutionalized oppression of the female sex while also providing inspiration for the sound of the Theramin. Gave my new monitor speakers a good workout; I hope the neighbours enjoyed it too.

Tape Loops

Steve Reich – It’s Gonna Rain

I’ve got this pervasive feeling that it’s going to rain. I’m not sure why. I liked the way the meteorological message panned left and right. More like It’s Gonna Have An Acid Trip.

Halleluiah Part II is over. I’m not sure how I lasted the full 18 minutes.

Terry Riley – Mescalin Mix

Parts of this sounded to me like an industrial version of native Australian bush sounds. I felt like I was on a camping trip in the 23rd century.

Brian Eno – 1/1

From his album Music For Airports/Ambient 1, which apparently coined the term Ambient Music. Brian Eno has a lot to answer for. However, this track put me in a relaxing state, ready to fall asleep on the plane; so I liked it.

Sampling

Luc Ferrari – Ronda, Spain, June 2001

After being jolted awake by the sound of a loud sliding door opening to greet the day, I was drawn into this by the sweet sound of a French woman’s voice. I imagined she was Ferrari’s lover, speaking to him in bed after awakening on a warm Spanish summer Sunday morning. I wanted to know what she was saying, but my French isn’t good enough. In my mind’s eye, they head to a busy market together to buy some croissants for breakfast, where we hear a man’s voice repeating “numero quatro”, which I assumed is Spanish for “number 4”. As the voices fade, the sound becomes more musical and we return to the soft sound of Ronda speaking to her beloved back in their villa together. I quite liked it.

My interpretation, however, is not what the composer had in mind. According to him, the point of Les Anecdotiques (The Anecdotals) is to dispense with the story altogether. My busy market was, in fact, the sound of Spanish tourists in a museum. While he describes the woman’s words as “Spontaneous and intimate”, in this context they are simply words in a foreign language with no narrative purpose. Just another one of Pierre Schaeffer and Michel Chion’s sound objects, if you will. My narrative interpretation of what was intended as an explicitly anecdotal work is testament to the human brain’s tendency to make meaning out of nothing. It turns out Rhonda is a village in Spain, not a woman.

Still, I enjoyed my little fantasy, thank you Luc.

John Oswald – Manifold

Wow, this was short. I didn’t even have time to eat breakfast while listening to it. It was only about as long as the Spotify ads, but certainly more fun. I recognised a couple of songs, like U2’s With or Without You and Sinead O’Connor’s Nothing Compares To You. Artists who use samples liberally often sample obscure works, sometimes affording them attention they would otherwise have missed; but in this work Oswald went mainstream. It sounded to me like the soundtrack to a sample-abusing hip-hop artist from the 1990’s being beaten up in a boxing ring by all the artists who reckoned he’d ripped off their work.

Tod Dockstader - Water Music: Part III

I quite liked this piece. The cuteness of the sounds and the stereo effects bouncing between the left and right channels really drew me in. I’ve recently got myself some decent monitor speakers for my home studio and this piece really worked on them. Pretty amazing for something released in 1963.

Dockstader started out in the 1940’s, prior to the invention of magnetic tape, editing his steel wire recordings with a lit cigarette. That makes me realise how much I take the piece-of-crap Logic Pro X File Editor for granted. Listening to this, I found myself wanting to know what was going to happen next, like I was watching a soap opera on TV; only with no actual story.

Synthesis

Karlheinz Stockhausen – Studie I

I found this quite disorienting to listen to. I guess it was revolutionary in 1953 but I reckon now you could whip it up in Ableton in about 5 minutes using the Random MIDI Effect and some automation.

Eliane Radigue – Jetsun Mila (Pt.1) / Birth and Youth (Excerpt)

I liked how the pulsing ambient drone sound in this grew over time; it drew me in and had me wondering what was going to happen next. Unfortunately the answer was: not much. Gradually a rhythmic element with some high pulsing tones which grew over time came in. It was a bit like listening to a very slow EDM dance track from underwater in a diesel-powered submarine going at full throttle for 12 minutes.

Laurie Spiegel – Appalachian Grove: I

I liked the pulsing stereo effects in this piece and the way the tonal characteristics of the sound varied while the pitch changed. It’s much more melodic than the other tracks we’ve listened to and that made it more enjoyable to my ears. It got a bit harsh in the middle though. This piece puts the musique in musique concrète.

Morton Subotnick – Silver Apples of the Moon – Part A

Perhaps the sound designer for Star Wars had this in mind when creating the sound effects for R2D2. I kind of lost the flow of the conversation without the witty English-accented retorts from C3PO though. Morton Sobotnick is described as The Mad Scientist in one interview, and I think if I listen to this too often I’ll end up fitting one of the DSM-5 diagnostic categories I’m learning about over in PSYC1002.

Suzanne Ciani – Concert at Phil Niblock’s Loft

This piece had some funky sounds that I liked. The start reminded me a bit of Kraftwerk but without the rhythm and melody; although it did get more melodic later. I’d probably give it a Distinction for its use of technology given it was made in 1975, but only a Credit for musicality.

Barry Schraeder – Lost Atlantis: Introduction

At first, I thought this sounded a lot like a modern ad for KFC; then I realised I was hearing a Spotify ad.

I liked the ambient sounds in this piece and the way it surged in and out with its “mysterious tone colors”. It slowly builds to a crescendo until we get the drop that EDM lovers crave, and then built more quickly to the ultimate drop at the end. I kept wondering what was going to happen next; I’d still rather listen to Fleetwood Mac, Supertramp or Queen though.

Contemporary Examples

Amon Tobin – Foley Room

DJ & producer. Retain percussive quality through sounds. Horsefish & Esther’s. Create beauty and delicate textures from sounds. Pitched percussive material. Fast loops. New textures. Funky beats. Check out the Foley Room Documentary.

Aphex Twin - 1ST 44

Acid house DJ in rave scene. Intelligent Dance Music. More complex sampling, polyrhythms, rhythmic patterns. From Collapsed album. Polyrhythms sounded funky. Lots of variation.

Holly Herndon – Chorus

Intersection of humanity and technology. Recorded web browsing. Stereo ping-pong effects. Here’s a talk she gave about her creative process.

Kaitlyn Aurelia Smith – Riparian

This was my favourite out of these three, largely because it sounds the most musical to my ears. I liked the pulsing beat in this track. I can hear a bass line for instance, melodies played on the synth and lyrics, although I can’t tell what they are saying. I also like the way the soundscape swirls around when listened to with headphones. It feels ambient, immersive and musical all at the same time. I get the sense that she’s using the electronics at her disposal in service of the music rather than the other way around. There’s even a great video about how she uses modular synthesis.

Graham Stoney - Foster le Concrète

"How hard can it be?", I asked myself. And since I had an assignment to do, I wrote my own musique concrète track based on the drum rhythm from one of my favourite songs, Coming of Age by Foster The People. I even made a breakdown video showing how I did it; because that's what the assignment required.

Conclusion

I didn’t take too easily to some of the more experimental musique concrète pieces we studied at the beginning of this semester. The weekly listening tasks felt harsh to my untrained ears and I would think mean things like:

“Didn’t the Geneva Convention ban cruel and unusual punishment?”

Perhaps these tracks will never be my preferred go-to pieces for chilling out on a Friday night, but when I look back at some of my cynicism-laced early comments in these discussion threads, I cringe. I just didn’t appreciate the historical significance of these pieces and how they might have influenced later electronic music that I do enjoy, like Kraftwerk say.

Then in Angharad Davis’s Music Colloquium Series talk on George Antheil’s Ballet Mécanique, when she played a snippet of the work I heard sounds reminiscent of musique concrète. Sure enough, they were roughly contemporaneous, and Antheil had been living in Paris at the time musique concrète was just getting started. You never know when something you study in one arena will pop up elsewhere.

Another thing I’ve learned in this subject is about taking creative risks and learning to follow my gut instincts without worrying whether a concept will work, or other people will like it. This has been an opportunity for me to explore that. My Formative Skills Assignment piece Foster le Concrète was in part a reaction to my frustration at the lack of discernible rhythm in some of the early pieces we studied. However, I really didn’t know whether the concept was going to work, and that was a little anxiety-inducing; especially given that I was doing it for an assignment which would be graded. I was quite touched to hear other students say they liked the end result, and I feel more confident about following my gut instincts in future and seeing what I end up.

Finally, I’ve been really inspired by the creativity of the other students in this subject. It’s been a weird experience studying online this year without ever meeting them in person, but I’ve really enjoyed hearing the creative works everyone came up with. They’re all so distinctive and amazingly different, it’s incredible; yet they were all products of the same brief. I can’t wait to hear everyone's works on the radio, TV, movies, video games, Spotify, or whatever audio technology is around when we all graduate: live streaming direct to our neurons perhaps?

Screen Rant's Fall 2019 TV Premiere Dates | Screen Rant

Although TV is a year-round dumping ground for content these days, the promise of new and returning shows in the fall is still reason enough to get excited.  For one thing, the broadcast networks are sticking with their tried-and-true model of pushing big new premieres around this time of year, and 2019 is no different. ABC, CBS, FOX, NBC, and The CW all have a variety of new series set to make it or break it in the increasingly competitive Peak TV arena. And while the return and expansion of the Arrowverse, as well as new shows like CBS' anticipated Evil, and the fourth and final season of NBC's The Good Place all make a solid case for traditional TV continuing its ways, fall 2019 also brings two new streaming services to the table: Disney+ and Apple TV+.

While Apple TV+'s slate looks interesting and will certainly garner plenty of attention with titles like The Morning Show, For All Mankind, and Dickinson, it's the arrival of Disney's pop culture juggernaut, armed with a litany of Marvel and Star Wars titles (oh, and High School Musical) that's bound to set the internet on fire. To that end, other streaming services like Netflix, Amazon Prime, and Hulu (though the latter is technically now an offshoot of Disney+) will need to step up their respective game to continue earning those subscription dollars.

More:

As such, the Fall 2019 TV premiere is going to be more crowded and more competitive than in years past. While it remains to be seen how many new subscribers both services will have on launch day, it stands to reason Apple and Disney will be stealing the limelight for much of November. Until then, check out the premiere dates for the new and returning shows this fall:
