Bounce to My BMX Complex

2009-09-21T12:07:00.009-04:00

The quite mysterious Australian collective BMX are back with two new fresh demos for you riders since we all played out "Theme" and "War", even tho they're both timeless and "Theme" will forever be my jam. The sounds of these tracks have a more mature, organic sound to them but they still keep that bubbly synth feel and party friendly ness that had first turned us on. Keep tuned for more mysterious BMX news. Until then...

Ben Silver's oh so delightful live set from the tent at Camp Bisco VIII. This set bumped and while Bonobo was wrapping up their set on the hill the sounds of Orchard Lounge were drowning them out.

Eyo Wade!

2009-08-21T13:29:00.010-04:00

So recently, some steamy pictures of my homeboy - and The Virgins' guitarist - Wade Oats and sexy LDN singer Lily Allen (allegedly) violently making out. The two met at the Fuji Rocks festival in Japan, and apparently were immediate attracted to each other. Allen, who is typically linked to much older, more "successful" men, is known to have shacked up with Chemical Brother Ed Simons (39), record exec Seb Chew, and art dealer Jay Jopling (45), while Wade has been linked to Boomtown Rats' frontman Bob Geldolf's daughter Pixie Geldof (20).

In light of the Allen/Oates hook up, people have been quick to report that Wade is actually married (according to his Facebook account, haha)!. I mean, as far as I know, it's not really true.

Here are the famous pictures:

and look how well they clean up:

Finally, the preview for the super-anticipated new installment of classic Wes Anderson (Bottle Rocket, Rushmore, the Royal Tenenbaums, the Life Aquatic with Steve Zissou, and the Hotel Chevalier and the Darjeeling Limited series) cinema has reached the internet - and I'm sure I'm a few days behind. So 'the Fantastic Mr. Fox' is a children's novel (by the equally fantastic Roald Dahl) turned stop-animation film, which tells the story of a mischievous fox (played by George Clooney) puts together a team of furry friends (played by an assortment of great actors including Bill Murry, Anjelica Huston, Jason Schwartzman, Owen Wilson, Willem Dafoe, et. al.) to stop a team of farmers who are intent on stopping Mr. Fox. Trust me, my writing is much more confusing than the actually plot of the movie.

Other contributed voices include: Wes Anderson himself, Meryl Streep, Andrien Brody, Roman Coppola, Brian Cox, and Michael Gambon)

Anyways, here's the preview:

And here's to nostalgia:

Electric Zoo

2009-07-22T14:15:00.004-04:00

New York and really the entire East Coast gets shafted when it comes to an electronic music festival. Europe and Asia have countless numbers of them and in Ibiza its electronic music fest year round. Sure we've got Camp Bisco, All Good, and all those wild Phish festivals but never anything that makes that bass bump. Lucky for us the Electric Zoo is coming to NYC this Labor Day with the likes of Busy P, James Murphy and Pat Mahoney, Armen Van Buuren, DJ Mehdi, Steve Aoki, and so much more to help us with our electro fix. Mark the date, get tickets, and prepare yourselves.

Kid Cudi "Maker Her Say" Video

2009-07-21T10:12:00.004-04:00

Back on the grind after the epic Camp Bisco 8 this past weekend. Im still in a bit awe and recovery mode is currently initiated. The late night dance tent was unreal everynight and saturday night after the tent, Orchard Lounge in the field till fuckn 7:30, ridiculous. Kid Cudi held it down during his set but gave a shout out to everyone but Trizzy hmmmmmm?! Anyway he did his verse of I Make Her Say and it was fire but if you we were there and didnt dig Cudi see him in the club he holds it down. FOOOOOOLS GOOOOLLLDD

Duck Sauce

2009-07-14T11:34:00.000-04:00

aahh what a shit show fun weekend at the Jersey Shore with the ocean, boat, vodka, the best company, but now my face is peeling thanks to that 0 SPF accelerator. A-trak never seems to take a vacation and just may in fact be the hardest working person in show biz right now, The kid hustles. Somehow he managed to hook up with House phenom Armand Van Helden during his busy 10,000 lb Hamburger Tour schedule to form Duck Sauce which as Trizzy says its him and Armand just making house tracks and hollering at ducks. The four track EP is slated to be released sometime in September, keep your ears tuned.

This week, the world has witnessed the loss of two great American icons...

Michael Jackson - B. August 29, 1958 - D. June 25, 2009

Farrah Fawcet - B. February 2, 1947 - D. June 25, 2009

... and this guy.

Billy Mays - B. July 20, 1958 - D. June 29, 2009

Most of you know him only as the OxyClean guy, but to me he's Billy Mays - the most energetic and inspiration person [formerly] on television.

Please join me in mourning this week's fallen heros.

Staying true to the summer of hip-hop, without further ado please put your hands together for the prince of mash-ups, E-603

2009-06-19T23:38:00.000-04:00

ahhhhhh mash-ups and mixtapes. Terry Urban, the genius behind many mashup mixtapes featuring the biggest names in hip-hop, hooks us all up with the mixtape of the summer SouthernGold which features MC's from the south mashed with Santigolds debut album. Theres a bit of controversy surrounding the mixtape and Santi's hypocritical record label which issued a cease and desist order which officially shut the project down. Because this is 2009 you can't keep anything from circulating around the internet. Santigold has stated that she supports the mixtape culture and would like to see this as an official release. So if she wants you to hear it, hear it here and go tell Downtown Records to Shuv it. The summer of Hip-Hop continues.

Doses:

Santigold - Unfreakable Girl (ft. Gucci Mane).mp3

Santigold - Fire Superman (ft. Weezy F).mp3

Summer Jams

2009-06-16T12:28:00.002-04:00

Theres something about hip-hop in the summer that attracts me like no other but i can't quite put my finger on it. Could it be The City streets and all the swagger on the corners, girls in their daisy duke shorts, bike rides to midnight shows in brooklyn, waking up naked and sweating and turning my swag on; i just dont know but the live music in the summer leaves my pockets thin, i dont mind tho cause it's a way of life.

These are the early summer jams, feel free to play these out.
