aesop rock - none shall pass

okay. so i had this album for a while before i actually
listened to it. glad i finally did though. it's sick.

title track 'none shall pass' is amazing and there's a few
tracks produced by blockhead which are really interesting,
and the ones produced by aesop himself are damn good.

check out the video/track....

dub war

nerds ahoy

i'm a nerd. i admit it. and i might be hard like rock,
but i still love stupid cute stuff. alas the friends with you
2GB usb drive's are cute but also do stuff, like store stuff.
store whatever you want i guess, doesn't really matter.

but they're cute. and the smiling malfi is the best one.

hate to be all pro consumerism but if you do choose to buy one
you could do it here:

or just do what i do and look at them. lord knows i don't do any
work that warrants needing to be saved.

shittin pretty world tour....part one.

so jenna and i hightailed it to philly monday night seeing as one of us doesn't have a job and one of us might as well not.

stuff is a little different there. went to a gig and because it was all ages no booze until after the show. needless to say jenna and i had cold sweats and convulsions until about 9pm.

found a sweet record store on market street called 'funk-o-mart' the owner chico was all time and had the best selection of used hip hop records i'd seen ever. also had a huge selection of porn in the counter adjacent to the records so really, it was a one-stop shop. in all seriousness though- if you're in philly stop in, chico was the coolest.

found this on vinyl in there. stoked:

and saw the themselves (jel and dose one) that i missed and jenna half missed in the city the other night. and we had a philly cheesesteak, and it was epic.

bon iver

okay. maybe you think folk music is for people that are of the
weiner-ish persuasion, and indie folk is a whole other level.
but you know what, i'm comfortable enough to say that bon iver
is both and frankly it is freaking amazing.

his album 'for emma, forever ago' was recorded in isolation in a
cabin in wisconsin. this justin vernon character spent three months
alone, livin' on deer meat and who even knows what else. but frankly
you hear it in the music and it's downright epic.

call him crazy, he just might be, but the good ones always are and
this album is one of the best i've heard in a long time.

have a listen:

for the heads

dj/producers monk fly and johnny faith host this weekly
radio show on 2ser out of sydney, australia. if your radio
aint quote strong enough to pick up signals from the other
side of the universe then you can listen to the player.

this is a bass heavy, hip hop, dubstep, breakbeat inspired
mash up of the highest quality. enjoy it at your work desk
as i do- the best way to phase out people asking you stoopid
stuff all day.

thanks fella's!
