Refractions: Being a Child of the Creative Age

Let's Start with The Comeback

I've been tired lately. Consequently I've been sleeping a lot. But in between sleeping times I was travelling all over the great country of Thailand. During that time I crashed my fileserver [thanks for the vote of popularity folks], I've listened to loads of new music via the quick internet down there, and apparently Hype Machine and Yousendit stopped working well together.

This leaves me in a bit of a conundrum. I'll continue posting music, but as we all know most people won't find it unless it gets listed on Hype. I'm working on a solution to this problem and hopefully tomorrow I'll be back up and running with no more problems. [and maybe I'll end up crashing yet another free filehost. haha]

Cheers

Brendan Losch

I found and was consequently friended by Brendan on myspace and I still dig his sound over a year later. A bit in the vein of Josh Ritter or Damien Jurado he sits on the edge of the new folk movement and uses it all to his advantage.

Here's a little song you could snag from his Purevolume account or his myspace page, but it's here for your convenience. You'll have to left click the links until I can start hosting files again on my old fileserver.

Well, We're Back

After touring the land of smiles, Thailand, for the entire month of February The World Forgot is finally back at a place where internet is easy to come by and uploading of songs won't cost three or four dollars each.

In other news I think I might be part of the reason my fileserver crashed. After uploading multiple copies of new and live versions of Arcade Fire songs my fileserver bombed out and has been down for over a month now. Hilarious yes, pain in the neck yes, do I care, no.

Anyway, expect new music to start showing up here. Especially form Paolo Nutini, Jamie T, The Good The Bad & The Queen, and various other artists. Who knows, maybe even some Take That, Fall Out Boy, My Chemical Romance, or Simon Webbe will make their mark upon this page.

Let's hope everything gets running smoothly again. And as always you can reach me at the_worldforgot@yahoo.com

Demetri Martin

Watch this video and laugh hysterically. I promise.




The end.

Demetri Martin finds Clearification ep 1

This my friends is absolutely brilliant. That's all I can say. It might be the most hilarious video I've seen on YouTube since OK Go trounced the treadmills. And Demetri plays guitar too. Boo yah.

This is episode 1 of 7.

Zach Galifianakis

I love music and I love comedy. So when you put both together in a comical way I seem to love it even more. Here's a full twenty minute clip, of the variety quickly becoming rare on youtube, of a set Mr. Galifianakis. He's funny and quirky. Both attributes I'm sure you'll identify with. Enjoy the show, I'll get more music uploaded soon.
