#MashupMonday with Fissunix: Jimi Hendrix + The Supermen Lovers = “Starlight Traffic”
Posted by mistergroonk in Digital Share, Just Freaking Neat, Music on December 20, 2010
Not 30 minutes ago we were cruising GYBO for any sign of New Year’s Eve party mashups worth sharing with you, faithful reader. What we found instead was Fissunix’s “Starlight Traffic.”
And it was so wonderful that we felt compelled to share.
Acapella : Jimi Hendrix > Crosstown Traffic
Instru : The Supermen Lovers > Starlight (+ Jimi Hendrix guitar loop)

Mr and Mrs Pond and The Doctor: Have Yourself a Merry Little WhoMas
Posted by mistergroonk in Just Freaking Neat, Music, Television on December 20, 2010
You may have noticed, faithful reader, that we’ve been a bit scarce on our home-base Internets. There has been fair to middlin chattiness on our Twitterspace(see also to the right of this post) but nothing of substance on GNET central.
This won’t change much until the new year. Don’t despair. There will be mini-posts to fill out the empty spaces beginning today.
Below lay Arthur “Rory” Darvill(on piano), Karen “Amy Pond” Gillan(displaying wonderful pipes), and Matt “The Doctor” Smith(being thankful he’s a wonderful actor) having fun with an old Christmas tune.
A Guitar Lesson from Kirby Krackle. Learn to Play “Secret Identity” #musicmonday
Posted by mistergroonk in Just Freaking Neat, Music, Tutorials on December 13, 2010
Our love for nerd rockers Kirby Krackle is new but powerful. Within hours of hearing them we bought every album available.
Now Krackle member Kyle Stevens is teaching fans how to play their song “Secret Identity” on the guitar.
You don’t have to try so hard for our affection, KK. You had us at “Zombie Apocalypse.”

#MusicMonday: “Mad Men” is Over. Let’s Play them Out… with a Twist.
Posted by mistergroonk in Just Freaking Neat, Music, Television on October 18, 2010
We loved the song “A Beautiful Mine” by RJD2 that plays during the opening credits of “Mad Men.” We wanted to put lyrics to it and realized that “Nature Boy” made famous by Nat King Cole, and written by eden ahbez, was the perfect fit. This was filmed in one take (this one, specifically, happened to be take 29 of the day)…no cuts, dubbing, lip-syncing or auto-tuning.
And, like the show “Mad Men” that ended its run last night, this video is a beautiful thing.

#MusicMonday: From the Land of Ooo, The Songs of ADVENTURE TIME
Posted by mistergroonk in Animation, Digital Share, Music on October 18, 2010
Here’s a little known fact: All the music from Adventure Time is ear honey.
Every last one.
We’ve been collecting each song as soon as it’s heard. Then it dawned on us that others might want them, too.
From Rebecca Sugar’s Postereous, we got Marceline’s “Fry Song” featured in “It Came from the Nightosphere.”(see it above and sing it forever like we have been for the last week.)
Download!
Right-click then ‘save link as’ the song title to download. Left-click the ‘info’ to discover its background story.

#MusicMonday: Adam WarRock’s “Call Me Johnny Wander” and Other Geeklicious Tunes
Posted by mistergroonk in Comics, Music on September 27, 2010
The nerd rock trend that overtook our heart last week continues with choice jams from Adam WarRock.
TRACKLOG 66 – CALL ME JOHNNY WANDER
WarRock talks a lot about how this ode to Johnny Wander came about. Johnny Wander is a webcomic we encountered through AppleGeeks writer, Ananth‘s Twitter. Once discovered, it didn’t take long to read through the entire series from beginning to end.
…and 50 minutes later, I looked around and realized that I had read the whole book, and was laughing to myself in the corner. By myself. Like a crazy person. But more importantly, I realized that I had been smiling more than laughing. Think about it, it’s a hard thing for a comic, especially one that’s not necessarily a continuous story arc, to accomplish.
He’s right. It is very nice to come across a webcomic that has this effect.

Nerd Rock #MusicMonday Concludes: Tron Soundtrack. Online. Active. Excellent.
Posted by mistergroonk in Just Freaking Neat, Movies, Music on September 13, 2010
Geek Internets has been excited about the new Tron Soundtrack website that booted up recently. It’s damn easy to see why. Once there, you’re greeted with a slow pulse of graphics, the noticeable excellent sounds of Daft Punk, and a newsletter login page that will, hopefully, let you know the soonest time you can buy up some Daft Punk soundtrack goodness.
