Chasing MOOD Season 2 Episode 1

Chasing MOOD Season 2 Episode 1

Online web series Chasing Mood returns for Season 2. The Vancouver-based series stars Curtis Lum and Brendon Bertolini, who reprise their roles from season 1. New to the cast is high strung, eccentric, and sometimes volatile, Johnson Phan. Here’s synopsis of Season 2 episode 1:

Curtis doesn’t really know what he wants to do with his life. His friend Brendon has just come back to the city, and even though he’s glad Brendon’s back, he feels as though he’s come back a little strange. Curtis couldn’t have picked a better time to soul search because his uncle went away on business and left him the keys to his amazing condo. With a great new place and great friends around him, it should be easy to find the time to reflect and figure out what he wants to do with his life, but something tells us that might not happen.

Life Goes On by Jargon

Life Goes On by Jargon

Rapper Jargon remixed Lupe Fiasco’s Show Goes On and put a new spin on it. His version, “Life Goes On”, is dedicated to all the lives lost in Japan. He puts into perspective our personal struggles versus much bigger issues around the world like the tsunami in Japan and wars around the world. Just remember keep ya head up and life goes on.

Life Goes On by Jargon

Lyrics to Life Goes On by Jargon

Alright, already this night so long
Man we’ve lost so many, but life goes on
It aint always perfect weather, nothing last forever
Just remember keep ya head up
Man life goes on!
Alright, already this night so long
Man we’ve lost so many, but life goes on
It aint always perfect weather, nothing last forever
Just remember keep ya head up
Man life goes on

Have you ever had the feelin that, life was just a game
N you look around n find out — you the only one that playin
N you say ya prayers at night but the only one that hear you
Is the neighbor down the hall — cry so loud that they can feel you
If you only felt my pain- u’d understand the struggle
Had a Single parent home, where them problems only doubled
Swore to God if, I made a baby- I would never leave em
Wasn’t long before I did- n police took away my freedom
All because me n my baby mama had a disagreement
loved my son more than her- guess that’s how she called it even
n its odd what you believe in, always come back to test you
its okay baby j — you know daddy come to ya rescue- come on!

1 in the air for da people in Japan
2 in the air for the soldiers in Iran
3 in the air for the Lybian war
4 in the air if you don’t want no more
5 we don’t need it — I’m a plead that fifth’
World gon end- – Don’t believe that myth’
don’t you worry- Need not fear
2012 we’ll be right here
Yeah, see, the problems at home
Really aint as big as the ones around the globe
Cryin over oil, don’t be so spoiled
all this greed, man blood gon boil
domino effect- plenty get touched
Disaster strike- Whole city get crushed
Ten thou dead — n many more to come
So our drama back home aint really that much
Its been a long day –but aint no clock
Moral of the story- it aint no plot
And it aint no point if it aint no shot
Tryina ask God when the pain gon stop?
But the storm gon end n the sun gon come
N the war gon cease n the love gon come
N that’ll be the day- watch it happen over-night
smiling at the fact that I’m glad to be alive!

The Music Box by Daniel Cloud Campos

The Music Box by Daniel Cloud Campos

Multi-talented Daniel Cloud Campos wrote, directed, and edited the short film “The Music Box ” that fuses music and dance together. Here’s a synopsis of the short:

This is a story of a kid, in search for a new apartment rental, who comes across a place that has actually chosen him. When a place speaks to you, you have no other choice but to play along with the tune

The part Filipino dancer creates an intriguing short with clever uses of various parts of the apartment along with dance moves. You would have thought it was from the guys behind The LXD. BTW – Daniel Cloud Campos is the illister in the LXD series. (The short kinda reminds us of Harry Shum Jr. in Elliot’s Shoes.)
