tonitottakai Posted April 14, 2017 Share Posted April 14, 2017 Mika Vainio, half of the Finnish electronic overlords Pan Sonic and a true techno icon died yesterday aged 53. Not sure if many of you know him, but I think the original version of this one should be well known here: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HanoiVillan Posted April 14, 2017 Share Posted April 14, 2017 That is absolutely devastating. Basically everything he ever touched is excellent, but for me, his album 'Kilo' is some of the best noise music you can hope to hear. My particular favourite: 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

chrisp65 Posted April 16, 2017 Share Posted April 16, 2017 I'd be up for it if I had my faculties. If I knew what was going on it would be fantastic. If you just spent 20 or 30 years being fed liquidised food and having your arsed wiped then not so much. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Aslong as I can look after myself enough and not be too reliant on other people then definitely yes. Saying that I'd want to die before my kids.

With nothing to look forward to, like puberty. Damn you, full circle! All the world's a stage,And all the men and women merely players:They have their exits and their entrances;And one man in his time plays many parts,His acts being seven ages. At first the infant,Mewling and puking in the nurse's arms.And then the whining school-boy, with his satchelAnd shining morning face, creeping like snailUnwillingly to school. And then the lover,Sighing like furnace, with a woeful balladMade to his mistress' eyebrow. Then a soldier,Full of strange oaths and bearded like the pard,Jealous in honour, sudden and quick in quarrel,Seeking the bubble reputationEven in the cannon's mouth. And then the justice,In fair round belly with good capon lined,With eyes severe and beard of formal cut,Full of wise saws and modern instances;And so he plays his part. The sixth age shiftsInto the lean and slipper'd pantaloon,With spectacles on nose and pouch on side,His youthful hose, well saved, a world too wideFor his shrunk shank; and his big manly voice,Turning again toward childish treble, pipesAnd whistles in his sound. Last scene of all,That ends this strange eventful history,Is second childishness and mere oblivion,Sans teeth, sans eyes, sans taste, sans everything.
