You Gotta Love This City

credits must go to josh for finding this, but i (unlike him, most probably) had the mettle to watch it.

the whole way through.

this guy, not only has a ridiculous lifestyle,

but no sense of rhythm apparently.

of all the bad rappers in the world:

Chamillionare

Lil' Scrappy

Bubba Sparxx

Lil' Wayne

Lil' Jon (do those guys even rap? or are they auto-tuned)

Lil'[insert white name here]

T-Pain (definitely NOT rapping)

of all these bad rappers, this guy is worse.

far far worse.

i'm sure any man who gives that many girls a free ride in a big limo

with free drinks etc

could be convinced that he is a successful rapper.

here, however, is a good rapper..

Drowning Clouds with my good friend Snazzle

this is an official big ups to Maike and Drowning Clouds.

despite the fact that the music player starts automatically, i thoroughly enjoy her work.

furthermore, Josh from An Ode To Odette Snazzle deserves perhaps an even bigger ups,

since unlike M and I, he doesnt steal the majority of his photos and videos.

he draws, takes, and creates almost everything there.

and that's pretty fresh.

This is a salute to you guys.

SHA- WING

ps. sorry to spam this into a blog post, i don't know how to get friend links.

Other blogs to Recommend will come soon, but maybe not too soon,

since that would expose my whole copyright scam.

Childhood

it would be a right shame to let go of all of this.

it will always have a place in my heart,

(and so will you.)

The Prodigy

i really am hoping to be able to see them next year.

i missed the prodigy when they last came to Aus, in 05 and 09 for various reasons,

but now our paths will cross in Paris, when i'm there for the year.

so i hope to be able to go and see them,

and have fun

Much like Justice, i'll always have a soft spot for The Prodigy

I first came across them at the tender age of 11.

Little did i know just what i was really dabbling with..

Had my dad actually known that he'd bought me 6 of the world's most intense pirated CD's,

(The Prodigy Experience,

Music for the Jilted Generation,

The Fat of The Land,

The Breathe EP,

and The Dirtchamber Sessions Vol. 1)

i'm sure he would have felt differently about the markets in Hanoi.

but they became a part of my life at that young age,

without me understanding the culture or background that they came from.

all i knew is that this song (amongst others, of course)

was awesome,

and that i had a very visceral reaction to it.

i still do.

i don't like other jungle,

i don't like much drum and bass

i don't rave

i don't shuffle - it's for dicks

i don't gabber - also for dicks

i never have taken a pill

i don't partake in the whole trance / house / acid house scene

but i fucking love this song.

and i fucking love the prodigy.

don't steal their music. it's worth buying to support them.

plus i also hear if you steal it, then Keith Flint will come get you in your sleep

"holy shit, he could eat me alive"

yeah.

i know

ps. proof that gabbering, raving and anything involved in that scene is for dicks:

what?

you want MORE proof?

oh, alright

believe me yet?

people are really stupid.

and here's some proof that The Prodigy don't just want to kill people...

isn't that song great??

Return as an Animal

a short film about the myth of the eternal return of life after death.

i don't really know why, but its just really really cool

you know what else he directed? a video for Wavves

Functional Items of Clothing

these thoroughly impressive items of apparel have not only fantastic aesthetic appeal, but are completely and totally functional. no matter what season they're designed for, they're perfect for it.

each one absolutely a must-have for this season's stock.

"my torso is freezing, but my arms are surprisingly doing okay"

is that what you're thinking before you put this on?

i don't care what material its made of, how warm and functional you think it is.

unless you're at sea, or on a mountain climb, no-one in the world has the right to wear these

Stress

i'm always going to have a soft spot for justice, no matter what happens.

i don't know why, but to me, "CROSS" is a symphony.

if you don't believe me, look through related videos for that,

and listen for the self referentiality through it all,

or go follow this link.

not that i'd support illegally downloading full albums or anything..

"As a reminder, marge.."

actually, i went today. i got some new chompers...

"People Doing Stuff"

thank you, Voodoo Village for showing me all the great things the internet has to offer. i will dutifully pass them on.

the unbearable lightness of being really really high

Jean

what a guy... hope he serves me well today with his hump and all.
last one ever.
then i'm done.
i'll party and i'll sleep and i won't have a care in the world

wavves

^^^ this guy ^^^
what do you think of him?
seems to me like he made pretty great success with the first two weed-induced albums,
a la "So Bored" and "No Hope Kids"

but now is starting to piss people off,
it really really seems like he's just stealing from the animal collective, passion pitt-y kind of vibe with his new song. i dont know where he even released it. if anywhere...
"Mickey Mouse"

this is not not at all to say that he's not still making good fun music,
i mean i still enjoy it, but what made him want to change so fast?

and apparently he's a dick anyway.
i don't know him so i don't feel like i can pass judgement,
but its what i hear.
