REPOST from 2008 (with slight updating): - I remember when the Apollo 8 astronauts went into space, right before Christmas in 1968. That was a rough year - Martin Luther King and Robert F. Kennedy were shot, Vietnam was a bloody stain on the other side of the world. Violence boiled over into the streets. As Christmas week opened, three men in a little metal capsule hurtled through space toward the moon. The astronauts of Apollo 8 were the first humans to reach the orbit of another planetary body. As they streaked across the dark side of the [...]

Belafonte's classic performances are released to coincide with HBO documentary.
I kicked this week off with a "vintage" live performance, so figure I'd close the week out in the same way. Lately there have been a few Jerry Garcia Acoustic Band discs that have been getting a lot of play time of my iPod, namely the highly recommendable Ragged But Right and Pure Jerry: Lunt-Fontanne, New York City - October 31, 1987 . Both releases feature Jerry backed by a formidable band that includes John Kahn (bass), David Kemper (drums), Kenny Kosek (fiddle), David Nelson (guitar) and Sandy Rothman (mandolin, dobro). The [...]
To my great delight, I would like to present you all with the winner of the Clockwork Weaver contest on Gotta Dance Dirty . My duo, No Body , won the competition with a hardy rendition of the original. While keeping the Big Room feel, we infused the original with some raw synths and bouncy leads. Expect to hear it played at HARD Haunted Mansion, when Clockwork drops it. Download below. Clockwork - Weaver (No Body Remix) [...]
"Michael" rowed all the way to number one 50 years ago.
Photo from NASA Flickr set Who needs some hurricane music? Despite the fact that the national media is treating this like the end of civilization, we east coasters are really quite alright. Boston will get a bunch of rain and wind, but I live on the 7th floor up on a hill, so I will be fine. I just hope that the power doesn't go out cause that would suck. But I'm all stocked up with cookies, donuts, and beer just in case I'm shut in! [...]
A few of you suggested this yesterday-great idea and thanks!
On September 3rd Lane Weaver will attempt to break the world record for the longest freestyle rap. The current record is 9 hours and 18 minutes by Chidera "Chiddy" Anamege, of the hip hop duo Chiddy Bang. However, Lane plans on going much longer than that. He said, "When I found out about the world record, I was like 9 hours?! That's pussy shit!. I plan on going for 12 or 14 hours." It will be going down at The Beauty Shop in Fairfield, Iowa on Saturday September 3rd at 9:30am [...]
Artwork by Frank Correa Beat Culture is 16 years old. All I was doing when I was 16 was wanking too much, all the name of 'self discovery'. In a way so is Beat Culture , all be It in a much less juvenile way. His debut LP, Goldenbacked Weaver , is a slagheap of sounds and textures, with each one carefully restored to form something beautiful and bold. He flutters and jumps from genre to genre in a way that shrieks of someone only just [...]
When I was 16 I got my driver's license and became a threat to drivers everywhere. Sunik Kim, a.k.a. Beat Culture , at 16 has released Goldenbacked Weaver and become a threat to electronic/chillwave/experimen tal artists everywhere. Reinventing several Beyonce tracks from " Halo " on "Westminster" to "Naughty Girl" on "Hesitate" they're no longer pop, smooth radio hits, but nearly indistinguishable howls. His influences include Gold Panda, Burial and James Blake, but I wouldn't be surprised if he's spun a few World Class Wreckin' Cru albums. The album isn't free, but musically it is; it's swirling like exhaust from speeding vehicles, [...]
I first fell in love with Beat Culture 's music after I stumbled upon one of his beautiful track sitting in my email! BC was a fairly new producer which I have not heard much about but in his few months of operation and me stalking his soundcloud page I have seen his music grow from good to pure perfection. Check out his album Goldenbacked Weaver below and make sure you pick it up! Look out for a upcoming interview LYFSTYL will be doing with this young cat. Enjoy <a href=" http://beatculture.bandcamp.co m/album/goldenbacked-weaver" _mce_href=" [...]
Gerade schrieb mir ein 16jähriger Junge, der aus Hong Kong stammt und gerade irgendwo in New Hampshire, USofA zur Schule geht. Sein Name: Sunik Kim. In Kürze aber wohl viel mehr unter seinem Monicker Beat Culture bekannt. Sunik zaubert so lecker Chillwave Beats, wie lang nicht mehr gehört. Bevor ihr auf Play tippt und euch die 10tracks von seiner heute veröffentlichten Platte Goldenbacked Weaver anhört, hat Sunik noch ein paar Hinweise für euch: 1. More experimental stuff than before. Give it patience, some of the songs are pretty out there. [...]
