Battlefield: Heroes - MMPORPG of 08
My interest in video games is minimal. Battlefield: Heroes looks to change that. User-friendly, skill level equality, and a cartoon design are all reasons I would play. None of that BOOM: HEADSHOT! business. Why don't you join the army if you can shoot 152/75?
The trailer,
Thanks Sean!

Mike Conradi - Tone Def
Fronting new electro sounds Toronto, Canada's own Mike Conradi precisely blends a comforting mix. Contending top honours Mike benefits from the prime Canadian House industry. Techy, minimalistic soundscapes roll with funky flat beats. A definate want for the music-pod headliner.
(CLIK.RIGHT)
Anyone hearing Mike Conradi at Cutting Edge M.Fest, one can only wait and see. Note: Destiny has not released the DJ line-up as of yet. Get those emails in!

Nah, it's just a ribbon. I think it is silly. As silly as the tracks thrown down in this mix from Bok Bok and Manara?
Dub heavy, electro clash bass. Wobble tune, kick step. Just released on Friday 13th of June - fresh-picked mint. Thumbs up to the No Love Lost crew, keep bringing like you do.
While not a complete fan of Dub Step, I do enjoy the fresh notes and basslines. Its blend with House and Breaks takes both worked genres to another dimenion, and I know it makes me dance heavy on the floor. Can't wait to kick it!

Stop the Violence
KRS One speaks on MC's selling out. KRS is a heavy-hitting lyracist, and although I have not heard as much diversity and range from him as some readers, I understand and connect with the amount I have been shown or have listened to. An MC, who's still around, and one of Hip Hop's finest,
Much respect.
I had primarily listened to KRS One from my brother's mixtapes and CD's up until college. So about 5-6 years ago, and the first track I heard KRS over top of Goldie UK drumm and bass styles. One of those artists who is multi genre, really and truly MC's from the heart, the soul.
Old school, classic timing of his ryhmes, Stop the Violence was established at the peak of the 80's, and a bad time in violence in the Hip Hop community. Wikipedia will allow you to learn more.
The original, funky 80's Hip Hop.
KRS One - Stop the Violence
The remastered, and cameo'd 2008 vesion is far away in comparison to the 80's version, in my opinion. Not that the message is any different, but early Hip Hop is gold compared to today's injection-molded plastic music. What really turned me off it was Chamillionaire's /sp?? bad verbal skills, and impressive desire to continue.

Da Designer's Dream
What do other designers think of a usb colour-swatch reader? Places like Home Repot and Rona have them for their latex paints, but the technology could be used in the design industry. Instant colour swatches, web-ready Hexi-Code, and database-driven colour profiles would be all the rage. Or should I say radiance?

Thief-kid is back. I called him out earlier as he walked up to the counter, myself fully aware of what was bulging out of his pocket. 'Don't you already have one of these in your pocket?' Of course I heard their excuse, rang them through, and then let them walk around the store depositing their stash, before leaving without the stolen goods. He just came in to buy another TOXIC WASTE sour oil drum.
I am going to buy a pair of $1 handcuffs and place them on the counter next time a thief-kid tries to pull anything.

Indian Summer, September, the commencement of an elaborate closing of the growth season. The progressive, natural ebb of Earth encourages near-fantastical processes, including humanity. September can feel as though it were the height of the year, the culmination of all things good. The far off signal of the ski season approaching :P

Gradual tune, builds up to an epic roll and jam and consistent vocals the entire track. The guy singing is on tune too, not the annoying $50 actors that get sync'd over once they leave the set. 'Its my money, and I need it now!!'
No words, just enjoy. Gosh, I am tired of talking. People talk too much, but i do always have an ear for friends,

I heard Tokyo Police Club last night on 94.9 CHRW, University of Western Ontario's cure for corporate radio. There are many good hosts and their style varies widely and is usually of superior taste to other radio stations.
Anyways, they played a few tracks randomly, continuously for a good half hour. Their sounds are near-atmospheric, and filled the room with smooth, rolling sounds of rock music. Maybe they will play Cutting Edge Fest. this year. Common' Destiny, release the line-up already! Frig!

The Chemical Brothers are the ultimate men of 90's big beat, and if you look closely on THIS PAGE, you will find you can listen to 4 mini-sets. They play in flash, so expect nothing to pop up. Just keep your volume on and it will play (top right on the navbar is the player.) Good hearing these boys. Their newest album is the classic success album, nothing really far out leftfield, but nothing extremely bad either.
Battle Weapon No. 7 is one of the final tracks in Winter, one of my sets. Its gorgeous. The link also has their studio, pictures of it, and description of their hardware. :D

and I sweaaaarrrr....
What ever is wrong with me is because my night is switch stepping. One of my 'things' is to buy a lotto scratch ticket at my work, when my shift begins.
Today's winning Crossword EXTRA came at a cost of three dollars Canadian, but it won $10! Extra cash for the weekend! Then comes the last hour sugar low; getting the extension cord (on one of those wind-up spools, kept in the back) I was going to heat up my pizza sub and not blow the fuse on the security system and ice cream case again. My $4 pizza sub filled me up, burnt my fingers, and took too short a time to devour. This left a $5 bill in my pocket, and some change, a firework, a red zippo, and a pack of strawberry PrimeTimes.
After my shift was over I proceeded to walk to the main store to drop off the binder. Upon handing over the keys my next destination became home, where I noticed the $5 bill was missing. My guestimation is it at the other store.
Which pocket was the $5 bill to begin with, and am I plus or out money for the weekend?

Local promoter and talent scout hero, DJ Mark the Mechanic has begun testing remix artistry. Fine job on this short Bmore ditty. The sample was used well as vocals, and when edited constructively, added a favourite element of mine to the track. McLovin' the vocal effects.
Listen to Scanty Sandwich - Because of You /mark the mechanic 2008 remix.mp3 on zSHARE.
I do think a deep and developed baseline would suit this track and bring it to the next level. And then a master edit, and then a remix, and then a versus, and then a lawsuit. A good competing effort, fine work Mark!
Mark is a friend of Scum DJs, based out of London, Ontario. And we hope to see him out soon.

Little Miss Quotation Marks 2008
To the person who called my ignorance of my culture un 'cool,'
If anything Crystal Castles are HOT! They already derive their influence from an Atari chip, now they are clipping and rearranging parts from other artists' songs. Sound familiar? Of course!
Top shots Daft Punk are notorious for rebranding and resounding years-old tunes. There are some loops that you have to wonder if they were purchased for use, and if so, are Daft Punk the greatest showmen of all time who have been blinding their fans from the truth?
Note: There are some who epitomise Daft to the top of the dance and electronic industry. Others, like me, wonder what the F they are up to in the Pyramid, hooked to the mothership backstage?
Pablo Picasso similarised stealing another artist's work as the essence of great art; "bad artists copy, great artists steal." The rebranding of something that belongs to thought, the process of creation, and in sense: sight, sound, etc., to remove and remoralise the issue to the artist's conception, is the difference between modern creativity and art.
Legally, or as legal as the Creative Commons License gets, and especially with digital music, Crystal Castles should have contacted and made Lo-Bat aware and fully knowledgeable of intent. In this case a versus stature, "CC vs. Lo-Bat," would have been binding. Crystal Castles and their management have since replaced the title on their MySpace, but after THE INCIDENT.
Crystal Castles, Daft Punk, and numerous other 'artists' are playing music we, or I, want to hear. They are borrowing samples and influencing eachother in all forms of the industry. Therefore, I do not now how uncool of me it was that I did not know Crystal Castles, on two cases, reworked other artists' samples into their songs.
I'm too busy enjoying the music to care about the little things that have no attachment to my ears and muh brain!
And now even better music than Crystal Castles,

Top shots Daft Punk are notorious for rebranding and resounding years-old tunes. There are some loops that you have to wonder if they were purchased for use, and if so, are Daft Punk the greatest showmen of all time who have been blinding their fans from the truth?
Note: There are some who epitomise Daft to the top of the dance and electronic industry. Others, like me, wonder what the F they are up to in the Pyramid, hooked to the mothership backstage?
Pablo Picasso similarised stealing another artist's work as the essence of great art; "bad artists copy, great artists steal." The rebranding of something that belongs to thought, the process of creation, and in sense: sight, sound, etc., to remove and remoralise the issue to the artist's conception, is the difference between modern creativity and art.
Legally, or as legal as the Creative Commons License gets, and especially with digital music, Crystal Castles should have contacted and made Lo-Bat aware and fully knowledgeable of intent. In this case a versus stature, "CC vs. Lo-Bat," would have been binding. Crystal Castles and their management have since replaced the title on their MySpace, but after THE INCIDENT.
Crystal Castles, Daft Punk, and numerous other 'artists' are playing music we, or I, want to hear. They are borrowing samples and influencing eachother in all forms of the industry. Therefore, I do not now how uncool of me it was that I did not know Crystal Castles, on two cases, reworked other artists' samples into their songs.
I'm too busy enjoying the music to care about the little things that have no attachment to my ears and muh brain!
And now even better music than Crystal Castles,

Yahoo! tries to stabilise after Microsoft pulls its weiner out. Wussy! Though still encouraging to know Yahoo! will remain its dominant and experienced self a while longer.
And hope you have a good day, because this beast might screw it up for good: you know the massive particle collider they built under Europe? Today might be Blow Up Earth Day.

Magnificent Sandtigers
Looking for paints and canvas today I came across an old sketch book. It was not used for any meaningfull drawings. However, discovered was a grocery list for my sophmore year of college. It was the first time living on my own in 622A, and the far greater 610A, in the on-campus residence of Georgian College.
I eat nothing like this currently.

Scratch That - Its Been Done Before
Another painting using mixed media. Grunge layers, deconstruction, and texture are highlighted in this piece. Will more than likely go on sale in Summer, and it is my most asked about piece, besides TASTE.
It is a close image of current minds.

IMA EACHU!
Please be advised that you are not allowed to tell me who won America's Next Top Model. I was working and missed it because I was catching up on Jon and Kate + Eight. Awwwww.
Being employed and a part of the work force is a wonderful break from sitting around, doing nothing, and than running out of topics to blog about. Consciously working on several big stories, but having no hard disk to save information to makes it more difficult. Rather it be an investment of time to get the results wanted, than to half ass do it and fail.
One thing working in a convenience store has to offer is a total zen attitude. You know there are going to be extended periods of time, so you plan on how to spread the work out over the seven or eight hour shift. Then there are many different jobs that are so far apart from eachother that it makes it interesting. Not to mention the Slushie machine, the five cent candies, and the sticker pricing gun. Zen. I really could be Asian after working at my store for a year. Its a vacation at the Kwik-E Mart. Thank you come again. ;)
Other than that, tempted going out and that wasn't as much of a success on several parts, but quite a success in others. And I am OK with that. If not, I am more determined than ever to get my new projects accomplished. Seeing it now there were times of wanting to invest time into a project. Now the ideas are being developed more and my management of them is getting better.
Some current projects (besides baking gluten-free, fresh fruit cookies with hemp hearts) have me in the garden, growing some organic legumes and vegetables on 17 year recomposted soil. The others are in the works, but seem more and more likely now that I have the finances to back them.
What ever it is, it will be great. Because I can, I will, and I do. Even if there are minor setbacks.

Chilean Valcano Erupts
It can be pretty exciting when the world boils over and splashes fresh lava on its surface. Chilean valcano Chaiten erupted today, sending 4000 from their homes. There hasn't been a death toll as the entire area of Patagonia has been evacuated, but add it to the growing list of geographical disasters around the world.
On the same topic of Geography, Ontario is classified a moderate earthquake zone, adding it to the collection of Canada's terrifying vacations, along with F5 tornados and urban gun violence.
Anyways, the volcano spread ash over 25km up into the air. Making for some dramatic photography, click through to enjoy more photos.

Super Dave
My college days involved blow up slides, booze, and ice storms. I can vaguely remember feeling like a hamster in residence, but the sub-arctic conditions can only be blamed for that. We definately needed a little Travis Pastrana action. Like this:

Ho Yeah! Peggy Hill
Part of me wonders what would cause such a reaction. The other part can only be wondered.
