SALEM.

so tomorrow night i'm playing in brooklyn for pendu with gatekeeper and streetwalker... if you out here.. check us the fuck out... then next week i is playing a show with salem back in sf. you need to fucking go. here i'mma make it easy for ya. i just started a twitter account and i don't know what the fuck to do with it. so if you follow me and tweet something interesting at me i'll pick a favorite tweet on monday and give away a pair of tickets (the show is on wednesday march 30th at 103 harriet... you can still buy presales here).

17 minutes.

i really do adore sasha grey. and i'm completely batshit crazy in love with her music/noise project aTelecine... so the fact that the kids over at pendu got this goin' on just made my day.

"PENDU SOUND has released a new 17minute track from ATELECINE (ft. Sasha Grey) to celebrate the Spring Equinox … This exclusive track will be available for download for only 24hrs… "

seriously... get on this shit. it kills. and it's almost gone.

 speaking of pendu... i'm playing one of their show with gatekeeper and others on friday in brooklyn...

my homie serge runs a sick blog called beer and rap... and i been buggin' him to spit some shit up in here fer awhile now... he's more than delivered...
this is an interview he did for us with one of my favorite rappers doin' it right now, isaiah the toothtaker. covers every thing from where his name comes from to what happens when you hit a man in the face with a black jack. this shit is fuck-ing real.

it's a long interview... but more than worth the read...
here's a sample (click to hear audio).
" One of them I split his face in half and like his eyeball popped out. He had to have surgery to put his eyeball back in and that’s self defense still. II used a black jack that time but it was like yo, it was versus seven dudes so what if I had a black jack. I could have stabbed each of them in the face and it would have been self defense.

 They got me for fucking assault with a deadly weapon, temporary disfigurement, and another like high up assault charge. It was like yo that’s obviously self defense. And like all those motherfuckers even corroborated to say that it was self defense. They all kind of said they tried to jump me, but yet they hemmed me up. I got indited for that shit, caught a felony for it. And the same shit, just cause the cops fuck up police reports and write what ever the fuck they want, doesn’t matter if it’s somebodies life on the line."

his stories are sick, his music is sick.

read the whole interview after the jump. (seriously it's fucking uh-mazing)

TEARIST.

a week ago today i was high as fuck on sizzurp and drunk as hell on whiskey and tequila trying to hold shit together and dj... it was an amazing night... nako and oOoOO both killed (as usual), rezound was in from new york and he totally fuckin' brought it... but tearist (pronounced tear, as in to rip, ist) may well have kept me alive.



go pick up tearist's record here.

i'm in love with chelsea wolfe...

i hope that statement doesn't creep her out. i'm kind of prone to hyperbole... but i'm not sure if that's what's at issue here. the girl is seriously fucking uh-mazing... intelligent, well spoken, and sweet as all hell... then she gets on stage and fucking destroys me. she does what any good performer should. she becomes what she presents.

i talked to her for a bit and got some footage from her performance at noise pop... if y'all missed that shit... don't worry... i'm bringing them back for 120 MINUTES this summer.




showed her this video, and this was her response.
"out of space and time; bottomless and boundless floods.. something died inside me last night, normally that might sound like a bad thing but i think actually it cleared out a fog in my head.. my memory is bringing me all sorts of sounds and colors and days that i could never remember before..."
seriously... fuck-ing love.


go buy her album, the grime and the glow, from pendu right now... fer realz.

crystal fucking castles... you know you want it.

generally speaking, i don't spend a lot of time on here talkin' about shit that's already been overhyped... generally speaking, i don't spend a lot of time on here...  this isn't really a departure from any of that... it's impossible to overhype crystal castles... they may be on some major shit and all... but seriously they fucking kill it... besides... i have a present fer y'all. how about two guest list spots for tomorrow (friday march 4th) nights show here in sf at the warfield?



yeah... i thought so... more after the jump.
