#ThrowbackThursday
Astra Protocol. Our first game. Survive the hostilities of space in a single occupancy star-fighter with a list of commands & 1980s interface.
It laid down the groundwork for Astra Protocol 2 & is available for free at slicebar.itch.io/astra-protocol
Welcome contrast to assassins, Gvt agencies, ninjas, space robots (film is like music it's good to like some pieces from every genre!) to gently tell a story about people & making music.
This 😎vid expands your thinking in the best way, audioviz learning. Initial song idea + arrangement = fully produced track. Includes famous ppl, but not the point.
You may have heard the track, but have you actually watched the video? It's a riot.
There was a mixtape tape looping on a new frequency in advance of a new radio station in Brighton actually live broadcasting. This track was in that looping mixtape selection, finding out which band track this was, etc takes me back to my life right then.

Thanks so much for sharing the concert pic with ppl dressed as Abraham Lincoln that's just awesome! I'll have to share the gaybar track now.
So is this vid best watched in public, loud, amongst strangers? Or maybe with the parents of a new friend? Perhaps when your boss is doing an office review? Or just no context email it to them?
Edgar Wright puts great unique material up on the screen.
Cornetto trilogy:
Shaun of the Dead,
Hot Fuzz,
World's End.
The way soundtrack powers narrative in Baby Driver.
Everything about Spaced.
Scott Pilgrim vs. the World is so uniquely Wright's stamp on director, producer, co-writer for screenplay. An unashamed slice of pop-culture magical realism.
Was absolutely obsessed by this track when it first released around the millennium. This is the slightly cut down radio edit without the French at the start. Packed with memories for me.
Listening to it now & then, I feel like things are going to work out somehow.
My vibe after using #Twitter this morning very briefly, just for something specific. Regardless you still get bombarded with relentless & endless negative worst takes on every event.
