Some, some, some I, some I murder... Some I, some I let go-oh

On Saturday night Bellababy and I went to check out the flash new Hoyts at Te Awa and saw Hanna – a movie about a girl trained from infancy in some backend european winter wilderness to become a deadly assassin. In the words of the Bellababy “That was random, but cool”  I actually, surprisingly, really liked it and have been thinking about it since. Mainly about the music.

Kash was the first to tell me about the music before I went to see the film and so I already had a heads up it would be spectacularspectacular – 'cause my homeboys The Chemical Brothers produced the musical score for the whole film. I like to think Tom, Ed and I have special relationship based on the moment we shared at the 2001 Big Day Out. Im sure our eyes all mutually met across the boiler room, probably.

Here is a review that explains my feelings about the music in this film perfectly.

I like this music so damn much I’ve been downloading it piece by piece on iTunes as a soundtrack to my life. I really should just buy the whole album – no point now though as I’ve pretty much got it in its entirety.

Below are my two fav’s........

 you gotta give this second track about half a minute to kick in..........

Solid beats and excellent – I mean excellent - for the running I’ve been doing in an attempt to rid myself of the winter chub.

Another album that I am loving listening to from beginning to end whilst running  is my recently rediscovered Kala  by the fabulous M.I.A who is a refugee all-star goddess – and who coincidentally is mentioned in Hanna by a lovable chav-ette that Hanna befriends

Hanna and the Chav-ette in question.

Such a great movie.

 I leave you with M.I.A, paper planes and the video that shaped my wardrobe for 2009. If you havent watched it before you gotta - especially around minute 2 when M.I.A and her crew start rocking down the street in the best UK Ghetto Fabulous manner you ever did see.
