Things

Have been getting better, and slowly falling into there place in my life. 2009 is in full swing (obvi) and I'm feeling its vibes hardcore right now. Personally, I've been a lot more productive interms of my own music and I have a weekly DJ gig that I might be able to get poppin off. As well, my band needs to assemble quicker, but soon come, everything in its right place.


grrooove to this...
Michael Jackson-"P.Y.T. (Utern's Demo Edit)"
Utern's edit of the unreleased demo version of the classic.

yo yo..

Are they goin to far with these fitted designs?

I think soo. Anyways whats good people? Hopefully everyone watched the SuperBowl in which the ever glorious Steelers squad clenched the national title yet again. Although I missed some crucial parts of the game, I did catch the halftime show which was dope on all fronts. The Boss killed it, like always. Bruce posed a great question to his viewers, "Is there anybody alive out there?" The answer for most is hopefully yes, but given the times were in, I could imagine many no's coming from the people. Time to start living.

Here's a classic album of his-
Bruce Springsteen & The E Street Band- Born to Run

Lil Wayne ft. Pharrell- "Ay Man"

holla.

OMG

Yes, the moment finally came. All in all, it was a good day. However, I'm irked by the media's potrayal of now President Obama. Quite frankly they're on the dudes nuts and they're created a mini-series out of the whole thing. Then again, it's an extremely significant when compared to popular versions of Human history. But all the mass media doesn't help, and given the prominence of media in the world, the projection could be taken as pseudo-messianic. All in all, lets hope that President Barry doesn't succumb to the powers that be in traditional American politics and the extremely evil powers (bankers and such) that control the world. We'll see....

Godspeed.

The guy in that picture...

Is a fucking idiot. Sorry but its true, read the article. How do you believe an Internet scam such as this and waste 150k of your family's money in the process? Just do what this douchebag did. I'm actually proud of the Nigerian scammers for doing this, they definitely got theirs.

I heard this last spring while working in DUMBO and I immediately recognized real, here's one from a house legend

Marshall Jefferson- "Mushrooms (Justin Martin Remix)"

peas.

If this isn't...

the most hilarious cartoon voice ever, I dont know ..

Christmas has got me feeling the Spirit..

So I'll bless you with this, as well..

Sam Cooke- "You Were Made For Me"

I've been listening to this album since I got home about an hour ago, and its making me feel the best. So here's the full ALBUM.

I mean why not?.. If you sleep on this your a fool. The Pioneer of Modern Musicians (rock n roll, soul, name it). Don't sleep...

Happy Holidays!!!!!!!!!

What's up People? I've been gone for a little, been busy with some things, but I'm back to bring some cheer. Although, I've been disenchanted with the whole Holiday Season as of late (ex. my upcoming birthday), like always, music helps me get thru it. This whole time of year is very reflective to me, with my birthday and the new year at hand. A bittersweet reminder that time truly is "slipping into the Future". The children I work with hardly grasp that idea(rightly so), and are understandably naive. In a way you can just feel there excitement & holiday Spirit, that seems to make things a lot better.

Anyways, here's a couple goodies I've got for you. Thank God the RIAA stopped deciding to sue people for sharing music, so I'm going all out. Enjoy!! And leave me some comments....

Low Budget- "Smooth Holiday Mix"
Real smooth "Yacht Rock(y)" mix, I recommend this 4 anyone, but especially my Caucasian readers. Let this rock at your Christmas party's, guaranteed to hype the whole family.

James Brown- "Soulful Christmas"
Why wouldn't I?, He's the Godfather of Soul...

Vince Guaraldi Trio- "Christmas Time is Here"
Classic, Jazz Standard by the great ivory player...(Godfather of Christmas Music?)

Vince Guaraldi- "Linus & Lucy (Pocketknife's Hark, the Holler Remix)"
Nice club mix of this classic theme, sleigh bells and all...

Platnum- "Love Shy (Crazy Cousins Remix)"
I been really diggin the funky house genre as of late, its just so soulful & groovy and Crazy Cousins are at the top of their game...

The Fugees- "How Many Mic's?"
Anyone who thinks of calling themselves a rapper might want to make a different New Years Resolution after listening to this. L-Boogie, Clef, and even Pras could slay anyone of these cats out nowadays, a lot of cats on the "come up" could learn a lot from Ms. Hill and the reFugee Camp... (you should prolly just download The Score, your welcome.)

M.I.A.- "Paper Planes(DFA Remix)"
Best Remix of this Grammy-nominated track...

Cassie- "Official Girl(CFCF Remix)"
Maybe its the spacious Reverb on the track, or Cassie amazingly sexy speaking voice(she's not really singin, is she?), or just the thought of her singin this to me, but n/h this track has been on repeat in my iTunes...

Hair- "Aquarius"
With all the craziness thats going on I'm wondering when the climax will come. And when it comes, could that climax in fact be the dawn of the Age of Aquarius?

Raphael Saadiq- The Way I See It
Could be the album of the Year, its between him and Kanye. This album effectively transports me to another era, this guys is on to somethin....

Diplo- AEIOU
One of Diplo's first mixtapes, filled with rare grooves and breaks.

Oscar the Grouch- "I Hate Christmas"
Need an explanation?

Again Happy Holidays people I'll back soon with some Kwanzaa spirit on the blog. Holler at me.
