From Aladdin to Lost Ark, Muslims get angry at 'bad guy' film images (Guardian) : Crude and exaggerated stereotypes are fuelling Islamophobia, says study. Popular films ranging from Hollywood blockbusters to children's cartoons are depicting "crude and exaggerated" stereotypes of Muslims and perpetuating Islamophobia, according to a study published today. A report by the Islamic Human Rights Commission argues that films as diverse as The Siege, a portrayal of a terrorist attack on New York starring Denzel Washington and Bruce Willis, the Disney film Aladdin and the British comedy East is East have helped demonise Muslims as violent, dangerous and threatening, and reinforce prejudices.
The Mayfair Set by Adam Curtis. Well worth the download this ( 900 mb - 3hours : use this website to get grab an AVI )by the same film maker who did 'the power of nightmares' and 'the century of the self'.

Manuel Gottsching - E2-E4 Hmmm so the story goes like this Manuel Gottsching (Founding member of Ash-Ra Tempel) A Groundbreaking early electronic track which had a massive influence on some of the pioneers of modern dance mucic... Derrick May said that he and his friends would listen to the whole LP over and over again for weeks, Juan Atkins said the same and it fit in with his early vision of Science fiction music from outer space, and clearly had an influence on his early Model 500 / Metroplex output. The whole LP lasts well over 40 minutes, and instead of individual tracks, the LP is a continuous track arranged into phases, with subtle changes in instrumentation whilst maintaining the same background rift and light beat. Sampled a million times since, most notably on "Sueno Latino". Very Inspiring and deep music.
