Chicane: New Track

Friday, May 22nd, 2009

New track from Chicane (Chicane – Poppiholla) is amazing. Remix of the song originally by Sigur Ros.  Rumors of a new album out soon. [YouTube] [Zune] [Official Site]

Ahhh Microsoft Codename “Fiji”.  You have been most awaited, most revered, and lately a most unwarranted pain in the ass.  What are you anyway?  No one really knows.  “Fiji” was supposed to be this rather large update of Windows Media Center before the launch of Windows 7. 

However, the latest release “Windows Media Center TV Pack 2008″ does not appear to be “Fiji”.  I could be totally wrong.  The TV Pack seems to be some behind closed doors commercial update.  “Fiji” was about UI updates, extenders, and special new features; certainly not just QAM, HD recording, and teletext.

“Fiji” show yourself and show us what we’ve waited for.
