Detection: If it Walks Like a Duck (Bigshots' Bull) , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 58min
This chapter-level audiobook can change the way you listen to BigShots - mostly businesspersons with a snapshot or two of politicians - as they pontificate for public consumption and personal gain. You'll recognize the spin, that dastardly polite euphemism for lies that the advertising/PR folks coined years ago to anoint their profession with a bit of undeserved dignity. In the process, you might gain a more realistic grasp of what's going on around you and how your mind is being manipulated, aka brainwashed. In all modesty, you're in good hands; some would say the best, which could be considered bullshit in itself: Who decides? I would be first in line for an honorary doctorate in bullshit if, by some stretch of academic chutzpa, it were tendered by any of the world's great universities. (Actually, I could easily make the case that degrees in business communications and political science are really degrees in bullshit, but that's another book.) I am a master at crafting bullshit, and you, dear listener, will do well to listen to me. I've written millions of words - speeches, strategic plans, articles, and all sorts of marketing lies and spins that I, too, politely call corporate gargle. I've done that for a gaggle of executives who toil for businesses large and small, manufacturers and service providers, technologists and accountants. I've been practicing this dark, draconian art and teaching others how to follow my lead for 40 years, and, as I say jokingly, it shows in my wrinkled face and cynical attitude that I, with a straight face, call realistic, a true reflection of the world. You'll laugh out loud many times as you wander through this audio. My cheeky, witty, acerbic, in-your-face style is sprinkled with the irony of a true gadfly. You'll resonate - see yourself and your bosses in many of my damning examples as clearly as if you had lived them.... ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Ray Allaire.

Bronze Mystic
(LTD multi-coloured splatter LP) Das zweite Album der UK-Mathrocker spielt mehr mit Elektronik und sogar Industrial, atmet aber auch dunklen Ambient und Postrock.Das zweite Album der UK-Mathrocker spielt mehr mit Elektronik und sogar Industrial, atmet aber auch dunklen Ambient und Postrock. Für Fans von The Battles, PVT / Pivot, Errors, Three Trapped Tigers After releasing their debut album, a monstrous slab of dark experimental rock Yours Sincerely Dr. Hardcore in 2012 and at the peak of their sci-fi powers Wrexham s Gallops soon announced they were no more and broke up in 2013. In 2016, almost three years to the day, they announced their return. We missed it too much, basically having some time away from the band gave us a fresh perspective and made us realise that Gallops still has life in it. It just needed a nap. After awaking from their nap, they have done so revitalised, rejuvenated and driven, creating an album that has stretched their horizons even further and is driven by the propulsive charge of electronic music. That said, guitars and drums are far from strangers on the record, but instead they are used to colour and shade around the electronic centerpiece of the record. We are very interested in marrying the real with the unreal. Sonically the record matches the band member s fuller sense of scope and vision, the sputtering electronics, and often-elongated guitar wails, recall the dystopian visions as depicted in the finest 1980s horror and sci-fi films. There are moments of soaring post-rock, humming dark ambience, esoteric offshoots, bubbling electronics and even the odd gargle of industrial-tinged noise. TRACKS: 1. Actual Landscapes 2. Shakma 3. Pale Force 4. Graverobber 5. Crystal Trap 6. Meta 7. Prince 0 8. Darkjewel 9. Professional Weapon- Shop: odax
