Box from the past

At year end, we were cleaning up our storage at the office and rediscovered a packaging box from 2001.

Original iPod packaging

The iPod is safely stored on the shelf and still functioning. The box was stashed away more than 20 years ago.

The iPod changed consumer electronics landscape and was responsible in making Apple as the brand in consumer electronics. Just within a short 6 years after the release of original iPod, Apple released their most popular ever, iPhone.

Waiting for Iron Maiden’s New Album: “Senjutsu”

Iron Maiden’s seventeenth studio album, “Senjutsu” (Japanese: 戦術) is scheduled for release worldwide on September3, 2021. Two songs off the album, “The Writing on the Wall” and “Stratego”, were released as singles ahead of the a release date.

As fan of Iron Maiden, I couldn’t wait to hear the album. Luckily, thanks to something called “digital music”, I would be able to listen to them on the eve of the release date. I had also preordered the physical album which is scheduled for delivery a bit later than September 3.

So, you thought you have secured your AirDrop settings?
You thought that you allowed “No One” to discover you?

Think again!

p.s. This one has been idling in my repository since Game of Thrones Season 6.

Now Playing: Dream Theater – Distance Over Time

Dream Theater’s fourteenth studio album “Distance Over Time” is officially released on Friday, February 22, 2019.

The album clocks in under 1 hour, without bonus track “Viper King”.

“Room 137” lyric was written by Mike Mangini , which is a first for Dream Theater.

After the first listen of the album in its entirety, not counting the first three songs (“Untethered Angel”, Paralyzed”, and “Fall into the Light”) which were made available prior to the album release; “At Wit’s End” and “Viper King” stand out.

I need to listen to this album a lot more time to form any further opinion.

Dream Theater: “Fall into the Light”

The second single off Dream Theater’s upcoming “Distance Over Time” record is now available for listening.

It is also available for purchase from among other, iTunes.
