Labyrinth (Juno Reactor album)

Labyrinth is the sixth studio album released by the multi-genre electronica group Juno Reactor. It was released on October 26, 2004 (2004-10-26) in the United States and on September 29, 2004 (2004-09-29) in Japan.

Overview

The album contains several pieces that hold various forms of sound ranging from orchestral, industrial, and techno as well as containing Juno Reactor's trademark tribal sound (possibly as best featured in Conquistador II). The album also features two songs from Watkins' collaboration with The Matrix composer Don Davis on the films The Matrix Reloaded and The Matrix Revolutions, "Mona Lisa Overdrive" (from Reloaded) and "Navras" (from Revolutions). The version of Mona Lisa Overdrive is different from that featured on the film's soundtrack. It is shortened from its original time of 10:08 to 4:45 and there are easily noticeable differences in the sound of the bass and tone of the songs. Navras is a remix of Davis' song Neodämmerung that was heard on the end credits of The Matrix Revolutions. One known single of Zwara was released in Japan on November 26, 2003 as a promo.

The Labyrinth Festival

The Labyrinth Festival or The Labyrinth is an electronic music festival held annually in the mountains of Niigata prefecture Japan. Attendance is limited, and 95% of the festival tickets can only be purchased in Japan. Acts include both techno and experimental.Resident Advisor in 2010 called it "one of the most lauded festival experiences in the electronic music world."

In 2014 Pulse Radio called it "20 Must Do Festivals Before You Die," writing that "With an expertly crafted line-up of ambient interwoven with more industrial 4x4, Labyrinth has made a full turn-around stylistically from the trance-fuelled rave that they once were."

The Ashes (rugby league)

The Ashes series, like the cricket series of the same name, was a best-of-three series of test matches between the British and Australian national rugby league football teams. It was contested 39 times from 1908 until 2003 largely with hosting rights alternating between the two countries. From 1973 Australia won thirteen consecutive Ashes series.

History

Several sports and events adopted cricket's Ashes "concept" and by the beginning of the 20th century it was an "accepted principle" that a series had to have at least three matches to be a true test of which side was the best.

On 27 September 1908, the first touring Australian rugby league side arrived in England, and played their first ever Test against the England side in December in London. Two further Tests were played. The Australians suggested that the series should be called "The Ashes" and the name stuck.

The format used is that three matches are played, with the winning team being decided on the basis of most matches won. If one team has already won two matches the series is already won, however the final game is usually still played. In the 1929–30 Ashes series both the teams won one game and one game was drawn; it was therefore decided to hold a further match to determine the outcome.
