Saw a TV segment this week about Roger’s new CD: Soul Food. He’s also been on TV with his show, Everyday Exotic. If you plan it right, you can find Roger bouncing between Kultura and Nyood cooking up some of the best food I’ve tasted. He’s also doing a cooking demo at Summerhill LCBO on Saturday, Nov 15th.

Found this great cover of one of LIGHTS songs. I’m relearning the guitar (which i abandoned for many years) and I’d like to get good enough to cover a song I like as well as this guy did.

HDOS Databank request 01 is a game someone linked to me. It’s a puzzle game and it’s pretty addictive.

Last month, Yamaha debuted their 2009 line of home theatre receivers. The RX-Z7, RX-V3900 and RX-V1900 are this years latest receviers. The RX-Z7 slots below the RX-Z11. The 3900 and 1900 update 2008’s 3800 a

nd 1800 models, respectively.

Unfortunately, like the 1800, the 1900 still does not scale up HDMI sources to 1080p. So, I’m still going to hold off on my purchase for now. The feature is available on their RX-V3900, and I’m hoping it gets moved down to their $1000 priced receivers in the future.

The Thievery Corporation probably produced the album I’ve listend to the most in the past 10 years. Probably second only to Nude Dimensions 2. They just released their newest, called Radio Retaliation. It’s available everywhere - stores, Amazon and iTunes.

Last week LIGHTS played for MTV Live during a brief stop during her tour.  The full performance is here. I noticed that online they show three of her songs online, but only one was shown on air. Shame MTV, Shame.

Here’s a link to her three songs performed at MTV:

Drive My Soul

February Air

The Last Thing On Your Mind

Heh - even “Macgyver” is affected by the recent stock selloff…

May not play properly outside US but it worked for me.

Ok, I’m not really obsessed with Old Navy, but I am obsessed with LIGHTS - and Old Navy used her music in four commercials:

LIGHTS - Drive My Soul (official music video)

LIGHTS launched her first “official” video online. Lately I’ve heard this track getting airplay on Virgin Radio and saw her plug her music on CP24 on the 25th. Her popularity is growing!
