throw anotha blackened shrimp on the barbie!

here it is, yr moment of racist zen:

i know the water flows backwards down the drain, but does time as well? just look at how much these crikey fuckers are loovin it: "great choreography, terrific singing, i thought u were fabulous!" says guest judge harriet tubman. let's do a lil reenactment of steve irwin's death w/a stingray in blackface & see if they're still laughing.

cara-plana-van-et!

how bout some great meddle, geezers? you decide if this one's for the kids. that kid up front def is. that girl in the back i'm not so sure about. dj steef takes one of sabbath's muuuch mellower tracks & turns it into a space (disco) jam. sweeet.


oh & while we're on space ("i just got off of yrs" "myspace?" "no ours") peep the rad poster for this rad lo-fi/sci-fi mindfuck starring the always rad sam rockwell & directed by duncan "zowie bowie" jones:

(what's the story) clarence worley?

just learning of this dude, but why the heck did he choose to include his ronnie milsap cover instead of this gem on the buffetlibre 2 comp?!? great cover, unfortunate name. seriously, if you were some jokey blog-house remixer it might fit, but serious music w/a jokey name helps none of us in the clarity department. he also records as alvy singer. shocker!

(what's the story) morning glory [oasis cover] - parker lewis (mediafire)
[BUY]

his originals are quite nice as well & his whole catalog can be downloaded free & legally through his label mad for it which is run by remixer-du-jour joakim. yeah that one. & look at that cover pic! he musta thought it was white (hair) boy day. shit, maybe it is.

he truly cannot lose.

put yr hands on yr waistline

back again (you're welcome) with an oldie but goodie; just like me. kids did you know that mr. chaff is over 275 years old? remember vaudeville? or the black plague?? yeah, that was me. oh & that internet too. this blog is actually 116 years old, but in a form that carbon based humans other than me had the capacity to read, only about two-ish. way back when, i was tweeting where all the freshest meat was, only none of those hunters & gatherers had twitter yet. morons. that's why i'm fat as fuck & they're dead. (that's me on the right over there!)

anyway, i tend to enjoy LOTP more in remixed form & this is the best example of that. while their set at coachella was timed to perfection (late aft nu-rave, anyone?) & a superior show overall, their recent SXSW set on the directv stage (wtf???) was rife with tech problems & less than stellar, it did contain the best ending to a show that i've EVER seen. groups of grim reapers dragged each band member offstage kicking & screaming, one at a time as their feedback droned. it may sound gay now, but it was awesome at the time. my friend agreed with me too & he's smart. like, really smart.

thanks for having me back, see you in another 17 or so years!

2 girls, 1 heart on

yet another radikal WMS sponsored party. seriously, this shit will be wild.
with burlesque, lady tigra hosting (en costumbre) & going til 4 am (which is like 9 am LA time) & will feature mostly weirdo/italo/beardo disco from the 70s & beyond. this one is thrown w/the illustrious euro-dragon ("breathin fire on pussies everywhere"), plus some of the usual suspects:

(1.) ye olde CRZA, who we posted 2 FULL original deepfutureafrolove mixes from last year:
but who now has a new equation. learn:
CRZA-ZA (downshift) + OO + bs (upshift) = ?
look around you, if your reformulated DJ name = crOObs, then you are correct

(2.) back once again is the renegade chaffer, hostman maxer, purple psilocybin maxer

here is my new equation. learn:

gombo lechaff - gombo lechaff + periodic elements Bb & Dz = ?

Bobby Dazzler

tee shirts sold separately & moustaches sold even more separately-er

now put that in yr copybooks

plus sets from jason of the dubby future pigeon, late nt duo andy clockwise & spyder

now here is a teazer pleazer til then:

hi beam baby - A.D.A.M. (A Disco Ate My) Baby (mediafire, sorry)

blue dream lover (fromage disco mix) - elke (mediafire)
we'll rock it - thony ritz (mediafire)

yeah, boyeeeee! WE'RE BACK my multi-racial brothers & sisters! this blog has just become THAT much more culturally relevant...or has it? either way, its nice to not have to be as embarassed to be an american.

yeah, it's been awhile, but in celebration of the end of all of this ridiculous election yammering & the result actually going the right way for once, i have pulled myself out of semi-retirement. also, this jam here is just too good not to post.. goddamn, i love me some good hiphop & this is certainly that. dumont mixes are usually of the squealchier, tech-ier variety, but this sweet mix maintains his bassier aspects while slowin it down for the head nods (nod heads?). good to be back. bigup yrself barry o!

run it (duke dumont mix) - EPMD (direct link)
then go & BUY some EPMD

bonus:
when i hear music (duke dumont refix) - debbie deb (direct link)
BUY debbie deb, she could use the money

thanks to EVERYone who came out to the KILLS party last week & made it such an awesome time. pics to be posted soon, but for now, some late-breaking news:

i will be the resident DJ this weekend (& possibly beyond) at the pre-show party for the above production. it will be hosted by our good friends at found gallery & the pre-parties will continue throughout june. more info on the show here. the parties start @ 8:30 & go until the show begins @ 10:30 & will have free booze (of course).

& here is something that i've been diggin lately that deftly straddles that line between absolute melancholy & total forward-thinking happiness. of course it was recorded over 35 years ago:

what mid-wilshire used to be...

ok, so the KILLS party is officially only a week away. in honor of this momentous milestone, let the giveaways begin!

the first 5 people that can answer the following convoluted question will win a prize pack including a KILLS poster, compact mirror for the ladies (or the more vain gay men) & KILLS badges, all nestled lovingly inside of a KILLS tote bag. so consider the gauntlet thrown. down or wherever you like.

the search for cherry red - the kills (mp3) [BUY]

the above song is a cover that the KILLS recorded as a b-side a few years back . the almost-next-big-thing original artist (band #1) is now better known as morphing into another more popular group (band #2) after grabbing a few members from another band (#3). WHAT IS THAT BAND (#3)?

send answers (& RSVPs) to: killsafterparty at whiteminstrelshow dot com

"i did not look for LSD. LSD found me. it wanted to tell me something."
-albert hoffman

so....albert hoffman died recently. i'm sure you've already seen it covered countless times on your local TV news station because it's such an important event, but let me explain anyway. hoffman is credited as being the inventor of lysergic acid diethylamide aka LSD-25 or in layman's terms "that little piece of paper that made me lose my pebbles".

he first synthesized the drug in '38, but thought it was a dud til he brought it back out in '43 & accidentally absorbed some shit thru his fingertips, ended up eating his entire microscope & realized that he may be onto something. he documented it all in LSD: my problem child & championed the drug as "medicine for the soul".

for a full, factual & almost unreal history of the drug, peep this book. this should be oliver stone's next movie instead of this shit.

some wildly varied, yet highly pertinent music:



& here's "acid mother" from the stones insanely
indulgent, never-released cocksucker blues tour doc.

take a "trip" over to erowid or the LSD symposium to discuss & blog about yr own psychedelic experiences or read about those of others or better yet, post them up right here in the comments section. (please!!!)
