I’m a little late in posting this, but this past week the web series DATING RULES FROM MY FUTURE SELF, from Alloy Entertainment (GOSSIP GIRL, VAMPIRE DIARIES, PRETTY LITTLE LIARS), premiered on Facebook and YouTube. So far the response has been great, which makes me happy, as I think the project is pretty adorable. Great cast: Shiri Appleby (ROSWELL, LIFE UNEXPECTED), Alison Becker (PARKS AND RECREATION), Mircea Monroe (EPISODES), Bryce Johnson (PRETTY LITTLE LIARS), Taylor Kinney (VAMPIRE DIARIES), and Martin Starr (PARTY DOWN). And, as you’ve probably guessed, I wrote the music for it.

If you’re not one of the 360,000+ (and climbing!) people who have seen the premiere, check it out at the DATING RULES YouTube channel, or the DATING RULES Facebook page.

I actually do have more important things I should be doing. A long list of them. But as I ate my post-lunch popsicle, I decided to check up on the CBS YouTube posting of the Classic Schmosby Remix from this week’s HIMYM, and wanted to share the comments that made me the most happy…

1) Every comment in Finnish.
2) “The hell with Justin beiber.. this remix Song OWNED all his song hands down… !!”
3) “I’m gonna play this song when I have my wedding”
4) “Oh my god , this should be top on billboard . lol”
4) “Damn it!! This remix is stuck in my head like a splinter! Like a splinter sized splinter.”
5) “This is my New Ringtone”

So here’s another piece of ridiculousness from Nathan Kitada and Aaron Umetani (Country Club Pictures) and YouTube’s The Game Station. Big, absurd trailer music by me, including lots of references to the original Bomberman theme music. Link to the MP3 also below, including download. Enjoy!

I’m posting this late because I’ve been in a work cave involving the film NAILED, starring Jessica Biel and Jake Gyllenhaal, directed — and abandoned — by David O. Russell. Score by John Swihart, orchestration by myself and my USC friend Daniel James Chan. More on that to come later.

… and this person does.

Thank you, Brothers Mario 2 commenter I have never met.

In many cases (maybe all cases), the “Duck Hunt 3D” YouTube video seems to be playing back in mono, and at a lower bitrate. Which is odd/annoying. So if you are super curious about what the music sounds like on its own, here it is.

I didn’t remember the music from the original Duck Hunt game, but if you do, maybe you’ll be able to hear the quotes more clearly now.

(Right-click the download link to save. I don’t personally like to work out to parody trailer music, but maybe you do. Which is totally fine. Not judging.)
