years been making music that mixes experimental structures with a pure '60s pop sensibility. On his second solo album of looped and layered experimental post-pop, he shows considerable skill in crafting songs that retain the essence of psychedelia while having been crafted with loop-based home recording methods. The album's finest moment has to be "Bros," a slowly percolating and unapologetically lovely twelve-and-a-half-minute song. Like Brian Wilson lost in a K-hole, gorgeous harmonies soaked in echo bump up against each other until they reach a rhythmic, fascinating crescendo. Elsewhere, Panda Bear's music tends toward the same effect a tad too much, often without the same transcendent quality. Person Pitch has fabulous moments aplenty, though (as with Captain Beefheart's 1968 Strictly Personal) one does wish that fewer reverb-soaked vocals were used, or that they were used even further, pushed into complete abstract dissociation. --Mike McGonigal

Advantages: Amazing scenery Disadvantages: Week story and can easily get bored watching
The Bear is one of my husbands favourite films and he has been trying to get it on DVD for a very long time so I decided I would treat him for when he returned home from Afghan. The only trouble with getting it for him is that he wanted me to watch it with him!
THE FILM
The film is set in the mountains of British Columbia in 1885.
The film is based on a bear cub who looses his mother when a big rock falls on her. He is left all alone struggling to survive. He comes across a giant male bear but the bear wants nothing to do with the cub as the male bears do not rear the cubs.
The male bear gets shot by hunters who are out in the forest looking for a kill. The wounded bear goes off and tries to heal his wound. The brave bear cub goes over to him and helps him by licking his wound. The male bear befriends the cub and decides ...

Ciao members have rated this review on average: very helpful Review of The Bear (DVD)
Advantages: Some decent vocal performances and nice kung fu fights. Disadvantages: The animation still lags behind Pixar.
his usual brand of slacker surf-dude to the part that suits the role's dreamy outlook. Dustin Hoffman seems to be having fun as the voice of red panda Shifu, giving his latest apprentice a hard time and throwing out fortune cookie wisdom as though he means it. Ian McShane growls his way through the part of Tai Lung as any good villain would. But Angelina Jolie, Lucy Liu, Jackie Chan, Seth Rogen and David Cross struggle to come up with a personality between them as the Furious Five because they have so little screen-time. Jolie in particular sounds bored by the whole affair. It's the lesser known actors that shine, such as Randall Duk Kim as the voice of Oogway and James Hong as Po's father. They bring a great deal of energy and enthusiasm to their roles that makes the characters stand out when they are on screen.

Advantages: Cute, fluffy and effective Disadvantages: Complete scan can take some time
Awwww....! The Panda is so cute!
Several weeks ago after getting frustrated with my PC slowing down yet again, I decided to invest in some paid-for anti-virus, spyware and SPAM protection.
Previously, I had used Norman Anti-Virus (free with Opistat), ZoneAlarm (free) and AdAware (free). These received regular updates over the internet, so I thought I was reasonably well protected, especially as I make a point of keeping windows up to date with the number of vulnerabilities that have been/are constantly found in that!
The market leaders in this field are of course Norton and McAffe, two large American anti-virus protection firms.
Now I've nothing against the Yanks you understand, but have to say the fact that Panda is a European product had some bearing on the purchase decision (Panda are based in Spain, but have offices all ...

Album Notes
On 2007's PERSONAL PITCH, Animal Collective's Panda Bear (aka Noah Lennox) ambles out on his own once again with an album that includes a number of tracks from his 2005-07 singles and EPs. Influenced in part by married bliss, new fatherhood, and a move to Lisbon, Portugal, this bright, buoyant album was recorded largely with samplers, creating a highly textured sound that cements Lennox's status as the Brian Wilson of the freak-folk set. (In fact, his vocal similarities to Wilson are remarkable, as evinced on the percussive opener "Comfy in Nautica.") Anchoring the record are two extended tracks that each break the 12-minute mark--"Bros," a mesmerizing, echo-laden number that gives way to a toy-monkey-like beat and energetic acoustic-guitar strumming, and "Good Girls/Carrots," an electronics-oriented mini-suite. While Lennox's ambition here sometimes threatens to eclipse the proceedings, he lines the album with enough melodic twists and turns to keep things fascinating, resulting in a truly impressive collection that transcends its bedroom-recording origins.
Album Reviews
Spin (p.93) - 3 stars out of 5 -- "[T]he constant flourishes enhance, rather than obscure, the disc's plentiful catchy bits, giving PERSON PITCH a resonant, off-kilter charm." Entertainment Weekly (p.74) - "The result, filtered through a playful, avant-garde sieve, is a lovely trippy kaleidoscope of sound." -- Grade: A- Q (p.127) - 4 stars out of 5 -- "Melding folk, electronica and pop like a spoon-bending mystic, Noah Lennox's third album as Panda Bear is an intriguing act of musical ESP." Alternative Press (p.161) - 4 stars out of 5 -- "PERSON PITCH seems to be bathed in a holy aura and illuminated by a warm light that was last used by the Beach Boys during their late-'60s/early-'70s era of studio exploration." The Wire (p.55) - "PERSON PITCH is as intensely invigorating an experience as Animal Collective at their best, evoking that childish state of half-terror, half-wonder as the world towers overhead."
