Mildliners in Paris // Japanese library

12/04 • I was asked a while ago for places where you could buy mildliners in Paris. And I finally found one: Junku, a Japanese bookstore in Paris. They sell mangas (in French and in Japanese), cute stationery, bento boxes, etc. It’s really great!

This week’s “Zach trying to keep themselves awake during lectures” doodles

Ok, friends: This is it! Just like Van Halen "We're baaack! I heard you missed us. I brought myyyy PENcil!" Just because I am "playing a new venue" if you will, here is a quick rundown of what randomrecordworkout even is. I take records, at random out of my collection and listen to them while working out. I jot down notes (a review basically) and record stats, like calories burned and minutes worked out. Then I mix it all up in a musical stew and viola! Randomrecordworkout. Whomever burns the most calories per minute wins! Ahhh, but this is Spring Training! The difference? Here I am simply trying to increase my burn, this is a workout afterall. How do I get better performance? Well I take just ONE record, listen to BOTH sides and record all the same info. The twist is, I increase the resistance on the elliptical. Oh yea, I work out on an elliptical btw. Hoping that I can slowly build up tolerance for the next season. So...here we go again! A month or so off from last Season's exciting conclusion, but no more! Let RANDOMRECORDWORKOUTSPRINGTRAINING2017 begin! RANDOMRECORDWORKOUTSPRINGTRAINING2017 Session 1 Herbie Hancock: Sound System Time: 34 minutes Songs: 6 Calories burned: 249 calories per song: 41.50 Calories per minute: 7.32 Scouting Report: I have to admit, I thought Herbie Hancock was a fairly recent (recent as in the 80's) musician. I could not have been MORE WRONG. From his wiki :"Hancock was born in Chicago, Illinois, the son of Winnie Belle (Griffin), a secretary, and Wayman Edward Hancock, a government meat inspector. His parents named him after the singer and actor Herb Jeffries. He attended the Hyde Park Academy. Like many jazz pianists, Hancock started with a classical music education and he studied from age seven- his talent was recognized early. Considered a child prodigy, he played the first movement of Mozart's Piano Concerto No. 26 in D Major, K. 537 (Coronation) at a young people's concert on February 5, 1952, with the Chicago Symphony Orchestra (led by CSO assistant conductor George Schick) at the age of 11." OK. Impressive! But as if that were not enough, he also played with and recorded for esteemed Blue Note Records(famous jazz label) and the Miles Davis Quintet! Still not impressed, well in 1969 he did music for Fat Albert, as well as several commercial jingles. The man seems to constantly re - invent himself and stay current. Fast forward to the 80's. I think you might recognize the jazz/pop crossover "Rockit". That's right fatboyslims. Herbie did the original crossover hip hop synth jam. The song (one of my faves of his) features some of the mainstream's first exposures to scratching. I will admit, when I was a kid it really sounded awesome and I ruined a Journey "Separate Ways" jukebox 45 single trying to emulate it. Oops. Secondary confession, up until this exact workout Session, I believed that song was on this album. I must have received it as a Christmas gift or something because I have literally had it since it came out in 1984. Really, though, "Rockit" man! You know, the video with dancing animatronic legs. It is pretty badass still. Apparently I love robots...which then makes no sense why I have very few transformers in my toy collection...a story for another time I suppose. The Music! So, it starts off with "Hardrock" which is very very...VERY similar to Rockit. Like it is basically an outtake or remix, so maybe that is why I thought it was on here. Synth and metallic sounding guitar meet up rock style. Excellent robotic housecleaning music. "Metal Beat" is the next track up to bat. It is similar, but different enough. Slower tempos and meatier beats. More...well, metallic. "Karabali" is different in a lot of ways. Firstly, it is more tribal and funky. Secondly, there is quite a bit of piano driven melody and because of that, the arrangement seems more thoughtful. The last notable and most obvious difference: vocals. Sure they are only background mostly, but vox all the same. Herbs (I feel we are on a first name basis since I have had this record so long) is mostly known for instrumentals. On the flip side, "Junku" starts us off. Again, a bit more funky and I feel like this may have been a single? Possibly the "Rockit" B side. "People are Changing" has actual vocals for real. Lyrics and everything. I kind if do not like it now, they are not needed really. Pretty Ohio Players meets O'Jays 70's funk and Junk-u (#seewhatididthere). The B side has a distinct flavor profile, brought full circle with the last at-bat in "Sound System". This song features every single 80's breaking glass/ bam/ horn and drum sound known to man. Collected conveniently in one single tune. Hancock is mostly instrumental, so it is hard to really lock in and groove, but he is also instrumental (#seewhatididthere) in introducing arrangement and jazz into pop music which influenced many after him. Side bar: did Chip Davis and HH ever collaborate? Because they should if not.
