Reggie’s

Well, while I don’t have many photos to show of that… show… I’ll at least tell the story.

We played between bands for some local groups in the area, particularly Aktar Aktar, good buddies and a very fine band. I had been working a remix of one of their tracks for a solid month between our Elbow Room show and Reggie’s.

That seemed to go over well, but the overall rhythm of how we were injected into the show was very abrupt and unnatural. We’re a band. Plain and simple. Braydon and I don’t just “spin” from one track to the next… if you watch any of the available YouTube videos of the Elbow Room show, you’ll see what I mean.

Braydon and I learned an awful lot that night. Some things didn’t go as well as they could have, but I still feel pretty confident about how we did if from no other indication than how we were received by the crowd.

I’m writing this post from a hospital bed. That’s a whole nother story I’ll probably elaborate on later today. In the meantime, check out Aktar Aktar’s myspace page and listen to that remix. I’ll have some more stuff for you guys later on. Thanks for readin’ and stay up.

Things happen. Again.

So, a few little bits and pieces of news…

Not too often do I act on this, but what the hell: You can find one of my tracks on a compilation that’s being put out from Cologne, Germany. Boy, they really eat it up over there. Fantastic.

Check this shit out.

Also, Bruno Vellutini finished the video he’s been working on of “Dream Sequence” off the last album. He’s a marine biologist studying for his PhD… just to give you an idea what the video is.

THANKS BRUNO! THANKS MARCO!

Mint Royale – Dancehall Places

Recently ordered from Taiwan, I picked up a copy of Mint Royale’s “Dancehall Places”, the follow-up to their amazing first record “On The Ropes”. This motherfucker is packed with some seriously heavy disco shit, as well as some slow jams for the ladies. This isn’t a music review blog, I’m aware, but just know that I’m recommending this because I can’t stop listening to it myself. Good luck pirating it, nobody has it or gives a shit (at least I think), so do us all a favor and just buy the motherfucker! Trust me, it’s worth it.

I managed to pick up the Japanese import of the album, so there are a couple of awesome b-sides. Check out “Floor Basics”, “54″, “I Don’t Know”, or “Sexiest Man In Jamaica”.

All mad heaters.
