Big Boi - Lines (feat. ASAP Rocky and Phantogram)

alex on December 06 2012

New Big Boi album? Sure why not. I have to say I love this track - I don't think it reaches its full potential but I love it. What can't I stand about this track? I'll tell you thanks for asking. When whatever amateur producer cuts/mutes the track in succession at around 3 minutes. Are you serious? I was doing that bullshit when I was 16 DJing at raves - you're full grown professional musicians and sound technicians.. act like it.

In other news: I found myself appalled today in the train station. There I am minding my own business when I see a woman shoving herself through a crowd (because her destination is way more important than everyone else's), when she finally emerges through the crowd I get a full on view of said pusher. She's wearing one of those full body sleeping bag with arms jackets, head to toe puffy sleeping bag. I found myself trying to figure out if I was looking at a human being or a worm with a wig on. If you search the archives you'll find my rant about wearing pajamas to the airport - this most certainly runs along the same vein. Moral of the story is don't treat the outside world like your living room because someone might mistake you for being a bug and then blog about it...

Ronald Jenkees - Red Lemonade Remixed

alex on December 04 2012

Our favorite eccentric crazy person Ronald Jenkees returns with a new album. It's actually a pretty solid album, he doesn't stray much from his typical style which isn't neccasarily a bad thing - there's certainly a wider array of instruments other than just synths which is refreshing. His style sort of reminds me of a step up from 8-bit music... more of a 32-bit Sega CD...

Check out dude ripping on the synth.. pretty talented.

XXYYXX - Set It Off

this track makes me want to shoop and dip while you dip while we dip all at the same time. Why can't we just let her set it off? damn yall...

Memory Tapes - Thru the Field

alexander mejias on November 29 2012

I have a lot on my mind lately... ...on the other hand - I'm wearing head to toe fleece with a pine scented candle burning next to me and blasting this Memory Tapes album - it's really difficult to bear the weight of the world when it feels like youre bathing in positive feelings while wearing plush garments.

Teleman - Christina

How easy is it to snap and become an insane homeless person. My vote goes for super easy. We're all just teetering on the edge.

That Work - Act Like You Know

chris on November 27 2012

I just got inspired. Maybe it's because this track is blazing hot white mother-fuckin fire.

The Fresh and Onlys - Presence of Mind

alex on November 26 2012

My apartment is either freezing cold or molten lava hot... Why must I live inside a hot pocket? For those international listeners not familiar with Hot Pockets they are an American snack which comes frozen and consists of a bread pocket(wouldn't be American without bread) and stuffed with processed meats from exotic animal regions such as pig throat and anus then as a final touch a processed cheese made from chemicals is mixed in there. Really they're quite tasty but cooking them is an art only the most determined can accomplish. Your first hot pocket will go something like this - Cook for instructed time - remove Hot Pocket from microwave - take a bite into the well-cooked, tasty, flaky exterior only to find you've hit a wall of thick Antarctic glacier on the interior. You tell yourself obviously it hasn't cooked long enough, maybe 30 seconds more? Yes good - letâ€™s try this again. Everything looks good, the cheese and meat interior is melted and no longer resembling a prehistoric wooly mammoth trapped in ice. You go in for the bite "mmMMM-LORD HAVE MERCY MY MOUTH IS IN FLAMES." You then have first degree burns in your mouth and can't taste anything for a week. And the funny thing is... it's all worth it.

Casket Girls - Sleepwalking

alex on November 25 2012

Apparently the 3 day food coma exists and is alive and well inside my body. In other news: Check out Casket Girls - hailing from where Chris and myself learned all about art, amphetamines, and ghettos - Savannah GA. It should also be noted Ryan Graveface from Black Moth Super Rainbow is a band member and well thatâ€™s just darn neat.
