Getting Culture....Bacteria Culture
So I have decided to make my own yogurt. And to do that I need bacteria! So I have to start my own bacteria culture.
So what I have done is add a bunch of classical music selections to the Iguana Music. I got some dead Russian composers ( Modest Mussorgsky, Pyotr Ilyich Tchaikovsky), some Beethoven, some Mozart, and whoever wrote O Fortuna - also known as "that song from the movie Excalibur". By the way, the composer is Carl Orff - but almost nobody knows that. It is forever known as "that song from the movie Excalibur".
I may end up replacing a large amount of the Iguana Music with stuff that will get you in touch with come culture. Or better yet - I may make up a whole other play list!
The problem is that Project Play List does not have complete symphonies. They are broken down into movements and stuff. Some movements are not there. Take Beethoven's 9th symphony. The first movement is there, as is the Ode To Joy - but the second movement? Nowhere to be found. How about that? How can I have the 9th symphony without the second movement? Can't be done. So I may have to get creative here.
Also some pieces are cut off. Take Mussorgsky's "A Night On Bald Mountain". Is all 7 minutes of the work there? No. Only the first three or four minutes. But you have to deal with it - for it is all I can find.
I may have to bust out with my massive and legendary CD collection and make me own MP3 files. Complete works. Then I can put some really good stuff up. But that would technically be illegal - so I do not know. I do not want to get sued. The guy who made the music is dead - so the copyright is expired. But the orchestra who preforms the work may still hold some manner of copyright. How about them apples.
But there is hope! Namely it would be hard to identify the orchestra. So if the link is "Beethoven's 9th Symphony" how would you know what recording it is? I would not. They all basically sound the same.
And now - you can take the DEAD RUSSIAN COMPOSER PERSONALITY TEST!
I am this guy.
![]() | If I were a Dead Russian Composer, I would be Modest Mussorgsky. I am a Romantic period psycho who's drunk more often than not. I died of this affliction, not surprisingly. My famous works include "Night on Bald Mountain" and "Pictures at an Exhibition." Who would you be? Dead Russian Composer Personality Test |
By the way, if you want to be this guy too just select "vodka" as the answer to every question.
Someone has to tell me how to make a cool drop down box that has all my post tags, and how often each tag is used. That would be cool.
