So come join Robot Blair and David Bruno as they do their thing at Element. And look forward to some more big things to come next month with our favorite dudes in the blogosphere.
These things always happen in threes. First it was RJD2, then Coldcut got in on the action, now DJ Vadim is promoting his new album by giving away his sounds for a remix contest.
This time it’s a bit different as there’s a real prize; release of the winning remix as the B side to a Vadim single. The contest features the songs “Kill Kill Kill” and “Talk to Me” from Vadim’s forthcoming album The Soundcatcher. Listen to the originals on his MySpace page. The files are broken up into a number of pieces some of which are available in FLAC format. You can snag them here, and check the contest details below:

A hip-hop show centered around self-deprecation and bi-curious moments is, in itself, a curious moment.

It's essentially saying: “Dear Sir and Madam, We understand that we May have scared and scarred your precious little girl for life and with great condenscension, here's just enough money for this shitty t-shirt. Hope your daughter will one day grow up to trust again. Richer than you Sincerely, Satan Wal-Mart.”
