I've been syndicating my radio & crtl sites to here for awhile now, but I'm not entirely happy with the way its working out... So I'll post stuff when it matters, or maybe just put the feeds into widgets over there > GUESS YOU'LL HAVE TO WAIT AND FIND OUT! /nerdism
OK Go : Official | Facebook | Twitter WTF OK Go?! What the f)(ck?! I'll stand by my one and only real experience when meeting these dudes and I'll have to say that they're some of the nicest musicians I've ever met in the industry, but by the gods, they're f)(ckin' oddballs. Apparently they're really theater geeks at heart, which explains a lot[nothing against theater geeks. i was one. if i was never in that musical i would of never went to prom w/ my High School dream girl]. Before I [...]
As I sit here and ponder what to write for my annual Dilla Day post, I find myself thinking about the first time I heard James Dewitt Yancey's music: A friend had told me to check out the track "So Far To Go" off of Jay's album, The Shining . From the second "So Far To Go" started playing, I was hit with a myriad of emotions, and I had no idea how to comprehend what was bombarding my ear drums; once the piano section kicked in right around the two minute mark, I damn near burst [...]
From his brilliant early releases on Med School and Alphacut through to later work for Soul Jazz and then his recent brilliant "Real Talk" for Numbers , Randomer has consistently impressed with quality beats across a varied tempo range. Hemlock are the latest label to welcome him on board and he delivers two of his strongest tracks to date. "Scruff Box" opens the release with lovely crunchy drums, a lovingly distorted bassline and vocal snippets while "Get Yourself Together" on the flip sprinkles classic [...]
So, the premiere of MTV's new show, I Just Want my Pants Back is premiering tonight at 11 pm after Jersey Shore. I had been seeing the advertisements for this show for months, but I did not know until recently that it was based on a book. I stumbled upon the book in the free book menu on my Kindle and I started reading it. Although I am only halfway through, I have to say that I am curious to see how it is going to be interpreted. I'm sure that MTV will take some libeties with plot lines, but [...]
Knifing people in BF3 makes me feel good. Maybe I'm a sick fuck, but sometimes its real nice to cut someone's head off while screaming "YEAAA FUCK YOU BITCH!" into my bluetooth headset while sitting on my couch. Maybe...
This article about genres is long overdue. First off, we're tired of all the blanket genre labels that keep popping up. Take the genre "electro," for example. Wikipedia lists so-called "electro" artists such as DMX Krew, Kraftwerk, Afrika Bambaataa, Cylob and even Cat Stevens as artists related to the genre. Electro isn't listed under any of Cat Stevens' main Wikipedia page genres , and rightfully so. Apparently he dropped some album called "Was Dog a Doughnut," that was allegedly a precursor to the "electro music genre of the 19802s." [...]
Snoop // Wiz Khalifa's record: Pretty much everything Snoop says in this "Nemo's Advice" show is funny, especially his thoughts on Kim Kardashian and Kris Humphries. Snooki's boyfriend, Jionni, on Jersey Shore has a similar predicament... [...]
Saw this on MTV earlier and it's so bad. Normally, we keep it positive about the musics, but this song and video are ridiculous. Will.i.am is like junk food for music. Think about all the reasons you wouldn't eat junk food then think about this song and how weak sauce it is. Will.i.am was working on a business deal with Universal Music Group and we heard he's a fairly opinionated dude. Not just like strong convictions, but opinionated in a pretentious way. Don't ask how we know that. Will.i.am shouldn't have to tell us how hard the beat [...]

This is not something to sleep on. Sign it you douchenozzle. The "Harper Government" is making major changes to our legal landscape and I for one find it deeply disturbing. Not even getting into the whole "Harper Government" name change either... This is Canada, not Harperland.
On an overcast chilly May Sunday we milled around the capital- leaning against buildings, petting every dog that walked past, and acting as archeologists we scoured the pavement for anything that resembled an unfinished cigarette. We weren't poor but sometimes we sure did act like it. As we tried hard to mask the delinquent thoughts that percolated under the yarn balls of our hats, a flurry of conversation flew past my ears. Three or four entered and quickly exited as I had a hard time keeping up with what must have been the most exciting, enlightening, [...]
Random releases a dope track from the upcoming Black Materia: The Remixes . However "Ninja Girl" isn't itself a remix, but a new track... Dedicated to everyone's favorite sneaky ninja-girl Some additional news while we're on the Final Fantasy topic, producer K-Murdock recently dropped news of his Hero Muzik project which will feature remixes of theme music from FF6 ( more info ). Both projects will drop January 31st, the same day as FFXIII-2 will hit the shops... but I would probably [...]
Welcome to the latest edition of "Freeloader," in which we review albums that you don't have to feel like a douche for downloading for free. Today Satan Rosenbloom checks out a bunch of stuff by bands what don't speak 'Merican proper. One of the very few shitty things about English being the world's lingua franca [...]
For those of you who are new to the site, this is a list of my favourite dance music from the last year. It's not exclusively remixes, and yes, you can argue you could dance to the songs in the Top Tracks list too. Out in the Streets - Africa HiTech The Look (Koreless remix) - Jacques Greene Surph - Rustie Sketch - Synkro Sicko Cell - Joy Orbison Rolling In The Deep (Jamie xx Shuffle) [...]
