has a rather good interview in this month’s Front Magazine. And he seems to be dipped in Second Son.
Drop us an email if you’re looking for the President Tee that he’s sporting as we have a few left.
I saw Example a while back and was amazed by his energy…that’s not meant to be damning the man with faint praise, he has got power on stage and got a fairly mild crowd going buck wild. You can read his blog here - he has a particularly good looking BIGGIE RIP mix from MK on there…I say particularly good-looking because I can’t download the thing on this here p-o-shit PC.
We’ve got together with the good folks who run the I heart parties. This month we’re going to be taking over the Macbeth, giving away a load of T-shirts, putting on a free BBQ and then throwing the mother of all ho-downs.
Dubstep and dance from Second Son poster boys Noisses and DMC Champion DJ Beware. Rock, 90s hip hop and general dirt from Zuul, Tropical Tits and William Steel. We’re told that he’s good. He takes photos for Vice so there should be nuff angry looking hot girls.
We’re also putting pressure on some good friends to play a live set. If that comes off then this shit is going to blow up like a highschool kegger. More info on that soon.
So the long and short is - we’re going to play music and hopefully people will go nuts. In terms of haircuts, outfits, music and crowd reaction we’re hoping it’ll go something like this…
I’m probably wildly late on this one as, contrary to popular opinion, I don’t spend that much time trawling the internet for crap unless I’m hungover. And thus it was that the morning after SteveSane’s birthday party found me idly browsing what my mum, in conflation of the various advances in communications technology that now blight our modern lives, refers to as ‘YouFace’. Anyway this popped up by mistake after I was hoodwinked by what appeared to be a video of a naked lady but was in fact an appalling rundown of the latest viral meta-memes, i.e. videos of cats dancing. Amidst the gurgling babies and skateboarding canaries, one video caught my eye and seemed worthy of further investigation to ease my troubled head.
Basically it’s a bunch of dudes who put American news clips through the auto-tune treatment (as popularised by Kanye West, leading exponent of ludicrously self-aggrandising arrogance and dressing like a space clown). Unfortunately they themselves then jump into the resulting videos, but if you can get past the occasional facetious bit there are some gems in there. I particularly like the “very thin ice” theme, and I dig the way it frequently sounds like a soup of regurgitated parts of R Kelly’s ‘Trapped in the Closet’ but with added cries of “shortayyyy” over dribbling sentimental teenage sex beats - in short, exactly like an Usher song. The other great thing is how weird the US news is, auto-tune or no auto-tune: appalling jokes, senators debating the merits of turtle fences, Michael Jackson “waking up dead” etc. T-Pain is in one of them, Gordon Brown sings in another and all the US newsreaders are hot cougars. Sorry about all this, I’m mildly hungover today too.
My new favourite band. They’re sponsored by Jägermeister, and frankly anything that’s good enough for the manufacturers of Satan’s own late-night mistake juice is good enough for me.
