"There are too many parties in the city but too many hillbillies out in the country..." Jesper Lidang - The Rumour Said Fire. The Killing. Sigour Ros. The Bridge. The Girl With The Dragon Tattoo. Lykke Li. The list of Scandinavian cultural exports that have wooed the British public is a long one. Ice cool in style and beautifully put together there is clearly something about the areas apparent other-worldliness and clinical capturing of stark emotion that appeals to us over here in Blighty. The Rumour Said Fire are the latest edition to [...]

The television landscape today often seems divided into camps. "Smart" shows versus "dumb" shows. Shows for the common folk versus shows for those "in the know." Quantity versus quality. In the Seventies, intellectuals would sometimes proclaim, "I don't watch television . Oh, I sometimes watch PBS..." Today, those people sound out of it. Things like symphonies and experimental theater and live jazz are practically dying arts today. Now, you proclaim, "I don't watch television . Oh, I watch Mad Men , of course..." This [...]

On a suggestion from one of our Chi Town friends, we made our way to this song repping Chicago hard in the video especially. Not much more bio to provide except that fans should head to Arrogant's MySpace to get more music and information. Arrogant - Hometown
Directed by Sean Phazes. Track produced by C-Sick. This song has been bubbling in Chicago for a little while now and I'm glad to see it get a video treatment. Previously: Arrogant - Hometown [Mp3]

Photography by Us ... Happy Friday to you, once again, my dear friends! Got a special little treat for ya today. The other day, I was bored with ye ol' iPod and was looking around for something different. Suddenly remembered that in my drawer behind me at my desk there's a stack of old case-less CDs I've used as dust collectors over the years. Thumbing through, found some fun little albums that I used to - and in some cases still do - listen to, but one (well actually three) CDs [...]
Arrogant - Hometown (Prod. by C-Sick) I've been bumping the hell out of this since I threw it up at Fake Shore the other day. Real nice production/sampling from the young C-Sick. Rhymes are dope too.

This isn't an EBTG post, sorry to disappoint, though it was that song that inspired me to make up this week's list. As an alumni of the Long Distance Relationships club, I have compiled many-a-song to my list of tunes to soothe the weary heart. A particular song that was on heavy play was Everything But the Girl's 'Missing' (also because, prior to the LDR club, I was a recovering pining-for-a-lost-love addict). I haven't added a song since, as it's been that long since I've needed one for my longing heart, but with my natural pre-disposition to sappiness [...]
I think weeks should always start with a post of a picture of a young Christopher Walken. Just because. Also, my daily lyrics have a universal theme to them....but it's mystery. Just like the mystery that surrounds the weird feeling that you get just by looking at this picture. Go figure. Here's the weekly lyric of the day recap - "No one knows what the future holds. If we just hold on maybe life could be sweet" [...]
I will miss the buzz of the Olympics when it's all done. It might not have felt like winter in Vancouver - especially with the dreadful rain that we're having today, but I do think the Winter Olympics was quite a success. I will particularly miss the free concerts and all those cute orange bikes I that the Dutch keep riding around with across the city. So in honor of the 2010 Winter Olympics, I'm having an Olympic themed post. This week, we have five songs that more or less (some really less) represent some of my favorite countries that [...]
Iron Chief - The Almighty Raw Grimey Download audio file (14-Iron-Chief-The-Almighty-Ra w-Grimey.mp3) Grimey - The Final Chapter . That's right folks, when Mai & I set out to do these compilations, we had it set in mind that each collabo/comp we did would only hit 3 volumes & then we'd be on to the next one..on-on to the next one (besides y'all slept on vol.2 ). So this is our 3rd & final opus in the Grimey series, we will mos def come back [...]
I wasn't originally going to put this up, because people always say any publicity is good publicity. I am also pretty much positive that every single person in the Blogosphere has already touched on this topic. I do, however, feel that I must voice my opinion on Kanye West (as I have many times in the past) in a more professional manner. Many of you that read this blog might feel that I am way out of my element. This is totally fine, because living in America we are all entitled to our own opinions. What I am posting here [...]
