Now I have beat time installed on all my devices. So I can always see what time it is in decimal time.

Decimal time was once part of the metric system we all love (yes, even our northern american friends of the united states). But it was rejected after a few years because people found it hard to get used to it.

But now I can use the decimal beat time (see http://gwil.co/internet-time/ ) on all of my devices and tell my friends we should meet @833 instead of 8 o'clock.

Down Down Down, by Le Muffe

Five years after their previous album, the furious and iconoclastic energy of Le Muffe is finally back! Since 2011 the powerful #Italian trio has been playing a highly inflammable mix of #garage, #beat and #punk.

The band’s new effort is out now: "Down, Down, Down", their third official LP, confirms their style through 10 new #songs in which you can find the essential elements that define Le Muffe’s peculiar #sound. First of all, there is a #musical background which is immediately recognizable but at the same time it’s so unusual because it tends to escape the genre’s stereotypes by finding its own original way within the garage, beat and punk scene!

In addition to that, there is the total absence of the guitar, with the central musical role played by the omnipresent acid #organ, plus a pulsing nervous #bass, and pounding aggressive #drums. This exciting musical mixture supports unconventional, self-mocking and socially pungent lyrics, declaimed (mainly in Italian, but not only) by Ol Pipa with his peculiar cavernous voice.
