Music, Movies, and Books

I like books alot! Some of the books/authors I really like: Oscar Wilde, Terrence Mckenna, Dostoevsky, Charles Dickens, Gabriel García Márquez, Mr nice by Howard Marks, Jane Austen, Franz Kafka, Doug Boyd (holy men in India, rolling thunder), Carlos Castaneda, Hermann Hesse, T.C. Boyle
Aldous Huxley, Eckard Henscheid, Leo Tolstoy. Timothy Leary, Haruki Murakami, Rupert Sheldrake, Terry Pratchett.

I hardly ever watch a movie but if I do I want to make sure its a good one. Also I have this thing for old movies. Some of the movies/directors/actors I like: Quentin Tarantino,Almodovar, Werner Herzog, Jack Nicholson, Easy Rider, Into the Wild, Klaus Kinski, The Godfather, Coen Brothers!, David Lynch, Jim Jarmusch,Dead Man!, Wim Wenders, Roman Polanski, Scarface™, Martin Scorsese, City of God, Stalker from Tarkowski... to many to list.

I am a DJ. I love alot of very different musical styles from Jazz, Soul, Funk, Trip Hop, world music downbeat over classical music to house and techno and even a little bit of reaggee. I think right now we are living in musically fascinating times because the internet made everything so easily accessible. Musicians/DJs are influenced by an amazing range and different styles from all times. Old or new or different genres are melting into each other and new ones are born every day.
