M.I.T.N.G DELVES INTO THE WORK OF COMPOSER CYRIL MORIN

  Ever since Philip Glass jumped onto the composing scene there’s been a certain sound shared by him and the like. A more organic sound, one that utilizes instruments unfamiliar to modern day orchestral arrangements. For years I’ve wondered if this style of song writing had it’s own category. The French composer Cyril Morin isContinue reading “M.I.T.N.G DELVES INTO THE WORK OF COMPOSER CYRIL MORIN”

This hard hitting and brutally real crimeContinue reading “M.I.T.N.G REVIEWS INCOGNEGRO WRITTEN BY MAT JOHNSON AND ILLUSTRATED BY WARREN PLEECE”

M.I.T.N.G TAKES A LOOK AT THE WORKS OF COMPOSER THOMAS NEWMAN

I was first introduced to Thomas Newman (born Oct 20, 1955 in Los Angelas) through his work in American Beauty. He had done several films leading up to American Beauty, which gained him an Oscar nod, but it was something about American Beauty that painted such an amazing picture of dysfunctional American life that itContinue reading “M.I.T.N.G TAKES A LOOK AT THE WORKS OF COMPOSER THOMAS NEWMAN”

M.I.T.N.G REVIEWS DARK HORSE’S “EMPOWERED: DELUXE EDITION #1” WRITTEN BY ADAM WARREN AND ILLUSTRATED BY TOMOKO SAITO AND JO CHEN

I know as much about ‘manga’ as I do about ‘bukake’. That is to say, very little beyond a general definition and a mild curiosity of why there is an interest in either. So, if Astro Boy, DragonBall Z, and Japanese kink porn is your thing, then my opinions or diagnosis may mean very little.Continue reading “M.I.T.N.G REVIEWS DARK HORSE’S “EMPOWERED: DELUXE EDITION #1” WRITTEN BY ADAM WARREN AND ILLUSTRATED BY TOMOKO SAITO AND JO CHEN”
