Mixtape 07.2010.Guitar
Guitar is the newest of the mixes and features both electric and acoustic styles. Simple rhythmic guitar hooks and nice sounds. All my favorite guitar wielding bands: The Dead Milkmen, Sex Pistols, R.E.M., ALL and more. Isn’t guitar a strange looking word. I keep thinking it’s spelled wrong.

Mixtape 06.2010.Class of ’91
Summer is here and time keeps passing. As you get old, and I guess that’s what’s happening to me, you start to look back. I’ve never been a fan of looking back. I’ve always tried to look forward. I am approaching my 20th year away form high school and the fact of the matter is this: I still listen to a lot of the same music. Yes, I mix it up now a days. But my go to stuff, the things I listen to over and over are the gems of my past memory. This mixtape, a double disc, is exactly what I loved in high school – way back in the late 80s and dawn of the 90s. Enjoy.

Mixtape: 05.2010.Cover Bands
In the midst of all the American Idol madness I’d like to pitch my new Mixtape: Cover Bands. This version has a slew of my favorite covers and some new finds as well. It includes the now, way-over covered Leonard Cohen track Hallelujah. I kept the Rufus Wainwright version on here because it’s still the best version and it was on the Shrek soundtrack, which I just think is funny. It doesn’t say that it’s Rufus, but it is. The art here includes images from Flickr once again: Lubitel 2 by Tokenygaard & Fuzzimo’s Vynil Record Texture.

Mixtape: JFX.04.2010.DEEPFOOLS
Mixtape number 2, with the deceptive title, “DEEP FOOLS”. Read into that if you wanna. The image is from the Peter Jackson, Lord of the Rings movies. Sometimes its just that simple. You can listen with the player below or click through and listen here.
Mixtape: JFX.03.2010.DAYLIGHT
I wish I had come up with this idea all by myself. I did not. I’m borrowing this concept from Kitsune Noir and their awesome Mixcast series. So, I’ve created mix mixtape and posted it for your listening pleasure. The plan is to do these regularly and make cool cover art for each. The first one here is called DAYLIGHT and fetaures two flickr images: A great shot of the golden gate bridge at dusk (I cropped the bridge out) and the second is a image from the amazing Noise & Dust group called Kodak Duaflex viewfinder.

Sampla V 1.0
 |
| Sampla is a backwards style name that tune game, where the game asks you to name the song that sampled a song (got that?). So, not only do you have to know your breaks, but you also have to know who used what and for which songs. Some are hard, some are easy. V1 features 35 tracks, 10 are selected at random each time you play. There is a scroreboard, so you can show and prove your skills. Graphic assistance by Josh Ruggeri. >play sampla now!!! |
Plastic Little – She’s Mature
 |
| Plastic Little’s new album, She’s Mature, has finally supplanted the Trilambs, It Wasn’t Not Funny, in my cd-deck. Imagine if the Geto Boys, Prince and Dave Chappelle made a baby or three. Those children might produce something like She’s Mature. In Plastic Little’s own words: “Those Plastic Little dudes, their not hip hop, they make broke pop, sounds like Korean dance pop, made for a video game, that you never even heard of”.

Skatefall has been a big hit. From crailtap, to wired, and blogs all over the web, the response has been amazing. One major issue has now been resolved and PC users should find this minor update more friendly when going left in the game. >play skatefall now!!! |

Over the last week or so I re-listened to the first Jungle Brother’s album. It’s so good, so ahead of it’s time. I’m not 100% sure but it sounds like a Prince Paul production. Can anyone back me up on that? If you’ve never had the pleasure of this record, do so. ->buy it from someone |
