Pandemonium, But In a Good Way
During the Opening Ceremonies for the 2012 Olympics in London, there was a sequence that I really enjoyed. It was titled 'Pandemonium' and it was a kind of history of the Industrial Revolution. The visuals were great, especially the rings at the end, but what really got me was the music. I simply loved it. But there was a problem. I couldn't find it to buy, anywhere. I quickly tracked down the artist, Underworld, and the name of the music, 'And I Will Kiss', but I couldn't buy it. I couldn't find it as a stand alone single. Couldn't find it on an Underworld album. It just wasn't available. Well, that's not completely true. It was on the soundtrack for the Olympics, called 'Isles of Wonder', but iTunes didn't have that either. Amazon didn't either. I was stuck. Until I happened to try a couple of weeks ago and found that Amazon had somehow let some used copies slip through the embargo. Less than $5 later...
