Texas MC, producer, and noise conjurer B L A C K I E releases a revised version of a track on his last album, True Spirit and Not Giving a Fuck . The original seems to be paired with a completely different set of lyrics, pushing the listener to stand up, speak out . This new version's lyrics seem to paint a picture of a world where the rebellion of the original track doesn't happen. Job's gone. Control is gone. Future is gone. Find links to download B L A [...]

Considering this article I just saw in Spin , I'm pretty confident that the internet age has ushered in a healthy hip hop underground that isn't going anywhere. There have been plenty of independent artists making noise this year, and even though I'm not in love with every one of them, I'm extremely happy they're gaining more ground. One of my favorite underground hip hop releases of this year-as if y'all didn't already know-is Death Grips' Exmilitary . Check our review here . Since I'm into that project, a viewer of mine suggested [...]
Ryan Gosling sightings had everyone wet, but that did little to settle the dustbowl-like conditions more suited to a Joad family reunion than a music festival. So, on a day when folks were being wallet-raped up to $10 for bandanas, let us take a moment to salute hard-working and under-appreciated nosehair. Sure, we stuff stockings with shiny little gadgets designed to tame these these functional flagella around the holidays, but deep in the heart of Tatooine Texas, hirsute nares were a cheap and fashionable Fun Fun Fun Fest 6 coping mechanism. Following a lovely outdoor [...]
Hey guys, starting this week and moving forward, Mixed Drinks and Mixed Tapes is downgrading to two mixtape reviews per week, mainly because listening to four mixtapes a week kind of takes over my life and I have kids to feed (well, not really, but it's an expression. Without further adieu, here are this week's tapes: Hit the skip to continue reading. B L A C K I E: True Spirit and Not Giving a Fuck B L [...]
You Won't - "Three Car Garage" Blackie spit on the sidewalk and it looked like a pack-a-day corn flake. The night was pink and fresh and the garbage air was wafted warmly away by eastbound breeze. Blackie pudged a ripple between the place where her shirt stopped and her skirt started, her fuzzy cheetah-print spikes tensed her strong calves taut. At 33, this life was no longer a life for Blackie, she wanted a change. She wanted a ring. Up walked Zbigniew, Zbiggie as he was often called, and she looked him [...]

blackie - "ich und du" (download) I can hardly find ANY information about Blackie . Information about this group is so scarce, that aside from the fact that they are from Germany, and this track was released (surprisingly) in 1981, I haven't been able to find out anything else about them. Even the above image, which I THINK is Blackie , had to be stolen from a video on YouTube. The only other info that I can provide is that "Ich Und [...]

Our friend TB referred us to this acoustically ethereal band named Sweet Tooth and we loved thier song "Everybody Wants To Be In Love." Click here to visit their website where you can get a free download of another song, but be sure to get this track on iTunes here .

I then used a copy stand and digital camera to film the camera [...]
