Let The Children Techno (Review)

Compilation

Let The Children Techno

Released by Ed Banger Records


“Admit it, deep inside you’ve always thought of BUSY P as Santa Claus to Ed Banger’s North Pole. And you knew DJ MEHDI was kind of the African cousin to the Whipping Father. Well, guess what? This winter they gathered their favourite newcomers, added a couple of old-timers, mixed them together and cooked the best holiday electronic dish. A brand new compilation of all fresh and unreleased music, down and up-tempo, love and dub-step, warm and cold-beats, and more international than Jesus. Just like the season.” - Pedro Winter [http://busyp.coolcats.fr/2011/01/let-the-children-techno-4/] Compilation ...

5 reasons you still want to pay $$$ to go to a Dylan concert

Tags:

On Saturday the 13th of December I went to a Bob Dylan concert in Washington DC. Despite the fact that over the past few years Mr. Zimmerman has gotten more than sub-par live reviews while on his “never ending tour,” most of which say that he’s a terrible performer and that nothing sounds like it used to, I still shelled out those sixty five bucks (that’s with a student discount!), plus $5.25 shipping and tax to see him perform. And gosh darnet, it was well spent. Here’s why:

  • The concert was hosted by George Washington University and Dylan was playing in the Charles E. Smith Center, aka the gym. Now, there are definite downsides to this: Number one, the gym. I highly doubt that I was the only person who felt like she was in highschool again, smushed into a room …

    Various Artists – ‘Spike Jonze’s I’m Here Soundtrack’ (Review)

    Various Artists

    Spike Jonze's I'm Here Soundtrack

    Released by Chocolate Industries


    “I’m Here. A love story in an absolut world.” Unless director Spike Jonze is actually referring to the vodka, an “e” should follow the “t” in “absolut,” then conveying a pure world, an unconditional world, one that is complete, and perfect in quality and nature. But there is no “e” at the end of “absolut.” And the world that Spike Jonze illustrates in his robot love story is far from perfect. “I’m Here” introduces us to a society where humans and robots co-exist, a simple reality that needs no rationalization ...

    Uffie – “Difficult” (Video)

    Ms. Anna – Uffie – Hartley’s new video for single, “Difficult” has just hit the interweb! The American born, Tokyo raised, Paris living firecracker of a popstar is on quite the roll this year with 2010 album release, Sex Dreams and Denim Jeans on Ed Bangers records. Recent hits have included the bouncin’ “MC’s Can Kiss,” produced by Mr. Oizo, another Ed Banger resident, and “ADD SUV” whose music video features a not so shabby lip smack-covered convertible driven by equally not so shabby Pharrell Williams.

    Unearthing – Alan Moore and Mitch Jenkins (Review)

    Alan Moore - Mitch Jenkins

    Unearthing

    Released by Lex Records


    Spaces between world and underworld, dream and reality, Somnia: an element not yet unearthed or discovered. What distinguishes imagination, fantasy, and truth? For Steve Moore, on the lonely, cold and grey Shooter’s Hill, a miniature gem-like Greek moon goddess statue is as real as any other lover, fiction and magic dictate all, and life is sustained by a dream spine of “thought meat” and “conceptual vertebrae.” Unearthing is the creation of comic book writer Alan Moore (best known for his graphic novels, The League of Extraordinary Gentlemen, From Hell, V For ...
