The Fifth

I’m currently chillin’ in Miami airport waiting for my flight to Managua, so thought I’d upload a video of a recent night out at “the fifth”. It’s a very SoBe sort of club. Very expensive too (da, that’s SoBe as well). The music was a bit dodgy earlier on, but once the DJs decided to do away with the “hey, we’re a club, let’s play hip hop” cliche and actually play some decent dance music, then things got a little better. ...

Thank God for ears!

I’m lying here on my bed (no work today due to the storm) listening to Hybrid’s latest studio album, “I choose noise”, which got released today. In a word, it’s fan-friggen-tastic. It’s everything I hoped for in an album of this genre (think a symphony having a head-on collision with break beats). Listening to it is like diving into a massive pavlova and finding Tim Tams at the bottom. It’s available for download in a “quite unlike iTunes” non-restrictive audio format, called MP3, from their label, distinct’ive records. ...

Bad Friday

Today I am just in the worst, most depressed mood ever. I don’t even know what to blame it on . . . many things I guess. No, I’ll blame it on distance and the fact that work is sucking right now. But anyway, for some reason I am inspired to take pictures of bugs and maybe a Miami skyline at night. I’ll see how I go with that this weekend. ...

New blogger: cool

http://googlesystem.blogspot.com/2006/08/new-blogger.html I’m not one of the special people who can do the switch to the new version of blogger yet, but a new funky layout could just be what this site needs. Of course, ‘funky’ is completely in the eye of the beholder. Some people around here are still convinced that wearing brown belts with white sneakers is totally funky. (whatever, pk).

Favourite news story of the year

From http://msnbc.msn.com/id/13825566/?GT1=8307 “Paleontologists say they have found the fossilized remains of a fanged killer kangaroo and what they describe as a “demon duck of doom.”” The guys here at work are loving this story. Australia must seem like some magical mystery land of killer creatures. Demon duck of doom. That’s awesome.

Still alive

Believe it or not, I’m still alive. The last couple of weeks have been especially hectic, with me finishing up part of a music course and work being insane. Oh, and fit a supermassive road trip up through South Carolina, North Carolina and Georgia in with all that on the past July 4 weekend. I’ve again been updating Flickr with pics from the trip so if you click on the badge to the right you’ll get to them. I have some weird arse stories to share from that trip… ...
