Last Visible Dog posted:What the heck, is that Moonlit City Lumina from Legend of Mana? Abugadu posted:Those are from a gamelan, a traditional Indonesian percussion instrument like a xylophone - it sounds familiar because it can only produce a limited range of tones, so many, many, many recorded tunes off a gamelan will sound similar to a Western ear. Possibly just a similar progression on the instrument as the Legend of Mana level music but it sounds pretty much dead on to me. Thanks to both of you for helping me piece this together.

It's definitely the same sample; I know the Legend of Mana tune all too well. The only mystery is where it originally came from. It's possible it was part of a stock sound/royalty free music collection at the time. Looks like it also turned up in a Janet Jackson song? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gZuNqmGl_CE

Does anyone remember what book this is from? I had it as a kid and a band posted it as a profile photo on facebook years ago and I asked with no response.

I think it's from the Weather book by Jan Pienkowski! I found a listing for a fabric wall hanging with the art, and the seller claims it's from that book: https://www.etsy.com/fi-en/listing/1106094637/rare-vintage-fabric-panel-weather

I loved the Haunted House book/game he made and I don't think I would have ever guessed it was the same artist. This style is so much more minimal and clean than the Haunted House. The real reason was I had this memory of a green sea creature/octopus with tentacles coming out of the water and thought it maybe was from this same book and sure enough:

F_Shit_Fitzgerald posted:Something in the Trump lol thread made me think of this: a movie from the '50s or '60s, in color, about a criminal (or maybe someone on the run from the mob) who gets a facelift. Most of the movie is spent with him recuperating in a house, and I think in the process he meets a woman he falls in love with. I think MST3K, Rifftrax or Cinematic Titanic riffed this movie at one point, but I'm not sure. Dark Passage (1947) fits that description. You may have seen the colorized version.

Still have it, even if it's a little worn and all the mechanisms doesn't work anymore. Love the art!

Does anyone know where I can get these toys IRL? I've tried over a dozen places, from walmart to target to even dollar stores and nobody has them https://www.amazon.com/ArtCreativity-Poppers-Assorted-Impulse-Dropper/dp/B07D8JH4T3 I get the impression that they had a fad recently and it seems like they've died out again already. I remember thinking they were a lot of fun as a kid and I know somebody who would like them

Both are independent toy/party supply stores, so I'd suggest looking for smaller retailers instead of large ones. Usually these popper things are in a plastic bin near the checkout, usually with stuff like little jars of slime, rubber finger puppets, bouncy balls, etc.

Several years back, Paul Robinson wrote two weird novels - "Gatekeeper" and "Instrument of God", and posted them free on his website, Paul-Robinson.us He's since taken them down. Archive.org has the Instrument of God PDF, but not Gatekeeper. I'd like to see it. Don't suppose anyone has a copy?

I don't have a whole copy. But the one on the wayback machine is only slightly corrupt - if you throw it into one of the 'PDF repair' websites, you can access the first 27 chapters (of 93 listed in the contents). Or if you trust me you can just use this link. https://www.ilovepdf.com/download/m...13vnrg3n17v1/18 I found a few more excerpts but frankly it became too depressing and I got bummed out. He has been active elsewhere within the last month or so which means he's still alive and on the internet at least. Whether he still has the drafts, or would share them...
