Happy 2 years and 2 weeks of writing for IHEARTCOMIX! to me! LOTS has happened those 54 weeks and I'm glad to be hunched over a fast laptop in rainy Brussels, Belgium dropping this line while working on a onslaught of submissions for the new year. While I have something to be thankful for daily, I'm not going to blow up the holiday that is an north american excuse for people to eat more than they would all year long. Devendra Banhart would agree with me. However, I will not use this humbug attitude to not give away stuff to [...]
We had a lot of fun last week going out to see a B.E.A.R. showcase at Jimmy's Lounge in Hollywood. We didn't get to see the whole show, but everything we heard was great. Would you expect any less from The Briefcase Rockers though? The crowd was an interesting mix at the show and the music that B.E.A.R. pushes is unique. We said it before and we'll say it again: everything we've heard from The Briefcase [...]
Juan Huevos - "The Price of Fame:"
What do you get when you combine two of the illest mustaches in the game? Juan Huevos and Debmaster . Since we first discovered the Briefcase Rockers, LTD . label through Lazer Sword, we have yet to be disappointed with anything they like. Good taste all around. Tonight we've got Juan Huevos and Debmaster on the mind. Huevos brings Josh Martinez or Aesop Rock to mind, coming with his own style on the instrumentals of course. On the other hand you've got Debmaster, who is sort of like Flying Lotus meets J Dilla (although, [...]
NOTICE: because I am totes schizo/obsessive, every sentence in this post will be exactly 140 characters, including this note 'splaining why. What does it take to be both a good music blogger AND twitter-er while still maintaining a sense of credibility, availability and standards? That question can be answered by giving a dedicated read to an excellent article positioning music bloggers alongside this birdy little app. Over the past week, Zoë from bigMETHOD spent numerous hours reaching out to music bloggers to gain insight on their [...]
Le temps se fout de ma gueule. J'ai trop de choses à faire en trop peu de temps. Trop d'avenir à régler en quelques jours. Ca me broute. Et ce soleil qui me tappe déjà trop fort, qui me donne l'impression de ne pas être vraiment présent, à voir les gens bouger autour de moi. Je vous avais promis de la turbine, en voici en voilà. Enfin, à moitié car je commence avec tout sauf du hard, mais avec un petit remix tout doux de Sigur Ros par Crash Overdrive . Car aujourd'hui c'est journée [...]
Juan Huevo's Last.fm description: "The hottest man in the universe. Melting panties off women daily." Haha, that's pretty funny. Anyway Crash Overdrive sent over his remix for Huevo's tune "Pony". Yeah, Oh Yeaaaaah! "Pony (Crash Overdrive remix)" | download Myspace | Gigs

So, the year is officially not so new and the pretty gangster Mr. Chan out'd you know who (let's just call him Voldemort from now on) for the reptile he is and Justice almost won 3 grammys. For 08 I hear tell of a 3-D printer that'll be able to fabricate it's own parts along with a Lindsay Lohan porno along with Britney's suicide note. Everyone's partying at CHECK YO' and my intestinal tract said to stay home at the last minuto. Mad at what I'm missing, I'm gonna leak some lurk music straight from the b.e.a.r. silo [...]
