Daft Punk's "Electroma" will be screened in...
See here for more details. I’m kinda torn about this. Being a Daft Punk fanboy, I want to go - HOWEVER - 97% of all people who see this movie end up leaving (1) frustrated or (2) bored. Yes, it’s an art-house style film… but it’s slow. If anyone’s going let me know.

tacky nostalgic oldness.
WatchYule Log TV - Even if you’re not a yule log devotee, at this point you’re probably at least familiar with the phenomenon. You know, that crackling log that burns in the fireplace … on your TV. Ever wonder where this quirky idea originated? Watch the video to find out how the yule log came to television and how it’s found renewed life online

Is this because the section on condom use was so poorly written?

mp3: Woodman - R&B Opener →
“69 minutes of R&B from the mid-late 90s, mixed as one track with no drops or pointless screaming over it, for the lazy DJ to begin his night with” It sounds like more hip hop than R&B to me. Either way, real nice set. The blends between songs are nice and subtle.

“A true weblog is a log of all the URLs you want to save or share. (So...”
– the guy who invented weblogging, kinda throwing salt in the game of so many serious bloggers.
“WHO THE THE FUCK IS DOING THIS TO ME?????”
– MIA, justifiably freaking out about her “Paper Planes” video getting quietly edited for MTV. Also, I like that she calls out “bloggers who are lazy”.

mp3: "Drilling Holes" - a DJ mix for Tk →
Me and tk got a bit wasted at a pub last week, I threatened to make her a fake dj set of kinda fun/kinda ironic stuff out of spite LOVE!! She said, bring it on, future life partner. Anyways, the result is 36 songs mixed in 33 minutes… all done in one take (all rather mad-dorky). At times it feels a bit like a poor man’s Girl Talk set. My favorite part is when Fergie sings over a Weezer...

YESSSSS! It’s the actual maxi-single complete with acapellas, bonus beaks, and what not.

Soundclip from Superbad: Seth: “What are you making?” Evan: “I’m just drilling holes. Last two weeks, fuck it.” This has become my mantra as I count down the days until Christmas break.
Ok, Bob Lefsetz. We get it... you're OLD, CRANKY...
See here: Even More “In Rainbows” There’s simply no pleasing this guy. He goes on and on and on about how bands need to connect deeper with thier audience, how they need to remove themselves from the major label system, and how they need to price thier product agressively. Radiohead does this and he writes them off.
