Slumberland of sweet nightmares?
Rockabye Baby! is the product of a truly twisted mind. It “transforms timeless rock songs into beautiful instrumental lullabies, sending your little one to a slumberland of sweet dreams”, as the website says. Now, that seems like a nice concept … until you look at some of artists which they choose to “transform”:
Björk
Metallica
Nine Inch Nails
Pink Floyd
Radiohead
The Ramones
Tool
So far, I’ve managed to get the Pink Floyd album, but I still want to listen to a few others. It’s something I have to hear, I just can’t imagine it. Still, the idea of little infants sleeping to the “soothing” sound of NIN or Tool makes me wonder about the present and the future of that poor child.
