Thanky thanky to Figure who just passed on some goodness from Mr. Oizo of the Ed Banger crew. The new Lambs Anger LP is completely tearing everything up right now the way it should. What an evolution for Oizo since Flat Beat (great shit also, don't get me wrong, but this just hits soooo hard)

Our SA! BFF Paul Huett aka Everything Continues dropped some newness, 1 track that I forced him to make because he plays it out at shows and it is just so fucking good, and the 2nd is a mix that he just released today.. Be sure to check him out along with the rest of the crew, (Me~Phenom, Sleepy T and The Martians) Friday in Bloomington Indiana at The Cinemat

Paul Huett on "An Evening With Everything Continues":

"Alright, I finally finished my new mix; it's more of a sit back and chill out mix, not so much a dance mix, but it certainly has it's moments. Comprised of mostly cosmic/balearic/kraut/new-wave shit, this is gonna keep your head spinnin all night long. Don't have any idea what any of that means? Neither do I, but it sounds good."

Black Friday

2008-11-28T08:01:00.000-08:00

Yo Yo.

Today is Black Friday, luckily for me I didn't have to worry about all that 5am bullshit getting up and going a dropping crazy cash on a bunch of stuff I usually wouldn't buy, but since it's "so cheap" I felt like I had to give a list to my sister to have her pick up some goodies while she was out. Of those was the TomTom GPS for $99, and Season 3 Part 2 of Entourage, since I lent it out to someone and never ended up getting it back. (isn't that the worst!).

OH WELL,

Here's some trax for your day after Thanksgiving turkey hangover, drink some cran and vodka and get loose tonight!

Snow is here!

2008-11-20T11:26:00.000-08:00

Well it's official.

I'm sitting in class right now, just got back from a short break
just to see the snow falling. Granted its not nearly cold enough for any of this to stick but its a good reminder that we aren't totally fucked as far as global warming goes. But regardless, it's a nice change to what we have been having, even if this means shitty slush, sleet, and hell for the next 3-4 months.

Sidebar: I'll be in Florida next Thursday for a little R&R and way too much turkey with a side of "The Itis"

I found off youtube.

DJ WALLY WONDER DROPS HOOSIER HEATERZ!

2008-10-21T16:45:00.000-07:00

A quick update from my dood Wally Wonder aka Jeff Barrows. We spin together Thursday nights at Uncle Fester's pretty much strictly hip-hop, old and new, with a few club tracks thrown in from time to time..

T.H.E. G.R.I.N.D. is every Thursday at Uncle Fester's on Kirkwood

NO COVER ALL NIGHT, and 25 cent pitchers!

(CHEAP AS HELL!)

Peep his new mix HOOSIER HEATERZ and leave some feedback!

Throwback Remixxxed.

2008-10-21T11:17:00.000-07:00

I found this flip scouring the depths of the internet. I don't really remember what site I found it on, but I'm pretty sure it wasn't on Hypem. I may have to double-check that. Anyways, usually I don't hear a lot of remixes for 80's songs that I completely enjoy but this one came across as something fresh. The intro is pretty dope and the chorus takes this remix to another level, so play this out and dig up more from The Police, if your not familiar outside of this song.

WTF?-Empire Of The Sun

2008-10-20T23:36:00.000-07:00

Okay, I'll be honest.

I think this is hipsterdom pushing itself to the limits.

The idea of lets see how far we can take music and see what we can get away with,

even if it is absolutely a joke. If the music was good I would understand it more, but I don't think it is.

Here's 2 tracks and a video from Empire Of The Sun for you to decide what you think.

I think its ridiculously horrible.

Empire Of The Sun- Walking On A Dream

ASHER FUCKIN ROTH

Kid is raw.

This is hella late, and I know this but I'm fucked up and I felt like it must be good if this is all I want to hear while I'm drunk. So take this free download, have fun with this, point out the tracks, and bump this mixtape in your car. I guarantee kids will think it's Eminem or some shit like that... It's better....but you didn't hear that from me!

The show is a simple, straightforward 2 hour mix, with experimental work and features on key artists in dance music dropped in from time to time.
