  • i'd like to take a moment to extend a formal apology for "settling" neighborhoods in brooklyn. not that i honestly care all that much 'bout that... but i think you're oversimplifying gentrification. who are the "artistic communities"? In my …
  • Silverlake = Williamsburg thats what i was gonna say. Like I said...it's getting there. but really there's not partying going on here, dont let the cobrasnake fool ya! That's so 2003, Ashton killed it, but it was for the best. So f…
  • kiss the good mexican food goodbye. Pretty much... there's one spot that's authentic, in the back of a deli, but even that is pretty expensive.
  • Park Slope is on some cookie-cutter shit and doesn't feel real half the time. Ouch, you said it. My main problem with Williamsburg is that most of the recent arrivals (meaning everyone who got there after me ) moved there straight from UMich camp…
  • Williamsburg is a neighborhood that has been defined by people who have never lived there... ie, Village Voice columnists. 1) they went on and on about how cool it was without going there. 2) they went on and on about how "over" it is without goin…
  • This is kinda dope. natacha it's going on my next bizarro braeks mix that Mr 3000 might be nice enough to air on CKUT.
  • Steel Drum Madness Big Rod Instr. audio quality = no es bueno
  • Sounds cool. And can we have a section called "The Extrumentals"? Dope beats minus wack raps. I got some King Sun and Overlord X.
  • B.B.E. = Barely Breaking Even I think that get them boutique status.
  • Bump. Budos @ 10pm El Michels DJs from midnight ing niceness.
  • last bump before I hit the bar. The "showers" just started but the "rain" isn't supposed to kick in till after 2am. Hey, according to weather.com there's a 20% chance it's gonna be sunny. So I think this is needed: Vodka Agent O $6 Vodka, Coint…
  • Was gonna make this a 45s only affair but I want to play more than a 10 min set! Feel free to killusall though Mr G.....
  • OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWW!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! and I'm gonna holler about something else.

  • I didnt think so.....check the post above mine. Sorry, I'm unschooled in the ways of the Strut. I saw it used and got a bit eager. Still, saying though...

  • I don't think there's many dope lyrics about Leamington Spa or Norwich so I'll post a pic of the subway stop nearest my apt. Game Over!

  • under the knife warning: very biased article crazy! that sounds aweful!! But how is this an antisemetic discussion? wait, what am I doing back in this thread?!.....AYYYOOOO!!! a tisket a tasket, look what's in the basket. this is much …
  • Arrested Development is by far the funniest thing on Network TV IMO. But not many people really knew about it. Or watched it.

  • Well, no comment. Seems like these acts all exist in their own parallel universes and should get out there, watch, learn, and pay dues before they claim to be the next Ben E King & The Drifters.
  • second, the way he keeps reciting hip hop history doesnt sit well with me. Reciting is a good word. Like it's gospel. Beats are dope though.
  • I see listings on ebay for C.J. and the Fish as psych, but I have one of their LPs from 1970 that doesn't have much psych elements to it. Then again, in '75, on the Together[/b] LP, psych elements come into play. Are they considered a psych rock b…
  • Yes! That's why I was like nah.... To each his own, but I'm not ever sitting around listening to Frank Pourcel. Got some good samples though. Good, Bad, & The Ugly by him is listenable... I'd even say playoutable.
  • But seriously, "I hate jazz when it ain't got no goove" = "I don't like jazz, but I like funklite when it is presented to me as 'jazz'" Bait not taken. But maybe "dollarbincommon" could be changed to "funklite"?
  • i guess all this amounts to is 'yeah you should definitely go.' Double date, S****??
  • dude, i'm sure you have a lot more records than me. positive. but asking if you should go see some legendary jazz artist because you're not sure if they're gonna 'bring the funk' just seems a little forest / trees. if you were joking, sorry. i miss…
  • nothing irks me more than jazz when they don't get in no groove. with all due respect, come on dude. you should probably go actually check one of these shows before you say some shit like that. might get you open a bit. Pls... come see my reco…
  • I wasn't expecting any funky jump up and down business, just some nice head-nodding grooves like Brother Soul. But nothing irks me more than jazz when they don't get in no groove.
  • Man, I was told to stay home for the 87 UK Def Jam gigs coz I was 12 and the lads said I'd get the shit kicked out of me. Probably right, and it would have been due to shit they started. I did join the PE fan club.... I still have the 4 -page photo…
  • Seeing De La Soul perform in Iceland in 1995 was pretty amazing shit. I heard that tour of Europe was pretty off the chain as they played smaller venues than they would have a few years before, but totally rocked the set.
  • Speaking of FOIA requests, hot off the photocopier: Government Documents on Torture Freedom of Information Act The ACLU filed a request on Oct. 7, 2003 under the Freedom of Information Act demanding the release of information about detainees he…
