Month: November 2012

Time to rock. It would be fair for you to have forgotten that I usually produce an almost-weekly podcast calledCodex, in which I play some of my favorite tracks of the moment.

I’m a giant Bond nerd, I truly am. Not only did I buy the new 50th anniversary blu-ray collection that includes all 22 films so far (as well as a slot to add in Skyfall), but before that I owned all of the previously released blu-rays (11 films), as well as the entire series on…
