Knights of Cydonia + Ocelot

OH EMM EFFIN’ GEEZ! Ocelot over at IHEARTCOMIX! was able to work a very non-sucky remix of my effin’ favorite Muse track, “Knights of Cydonia”. There’s always been potential for this track, but I’ve never seen an actual full version take force outside of SMD’s version over a year ago, which hardly resembles the original […]

Where have I been?

All photos by ricko Damn guys, sorry about the huge ace delay in posting. The summer weather along with work, softball, and too much drinking has led to a sacrifice in functional time I can spend on the real important things (like this site). I promise to make things up to you as I have […]

SOLVE Chicago

One of my biggest flaws is not keeping up with local news (that is, news that doesn’t involve electronic music). After reading both on Trash Menagerie and Hot Biscuits however, I was saddend to hear about the loss of a Chicago icon. The artist known as SOLVE will be greatly missed not only as an […]

Are You Kidding Me Kurtech?

Where in the hell did this kid come from? Kurt Szelpuk, who goes by Kurtech, never even touched an instrument until he was thrown into the ‘Musical Directors’ job in his high school media class. The 17 year old from outside Melbourne has produced a handful of amazing productions (musical background or not), as well […]

LAZR Day

While watching the German team mount an incredible win over a fearless and formidable Turkey team (as well as enduring ESPN’s horrid broadcasting signal [sure sure, its not technically their fault, but someone as huge as ESPN should have weather controlling devices amiright?])… I’ve been enjoying some tracks from LA based LAZRtag. Their Crystal Castles […]

Tuesday 6/24Outdanced at Funky Buddha Lounge:[bearries][kid color][dj kt] Wednesday […]

Ayumi Sohotasaki

I’m not going to pretend to know anything about j-pop and the artists associated with that genre of music. But I do know that this woman is beyond gorgeous… and that Young Punx! and MSTRKRFT did a pretty schweet job at making her songs (western) dance floor acceptable. Mp3: Ayumi Hamasaki – Beautiful Fighters (MSTRKRFT […]
