Anyone into sound design or modern art forms wont want to miss Pierre Proske performing at Geek Chic 2.0 this Wednesday night at Loop Bar. The event runs from 5pm till late and Pierre will be performing around 7pm. Free admission.

Pierre Proske is an electronic artist intrigued by the pervasiveness of technology in culture and science and its relationship to nature. His
work involves exposing the unspoken relationships we have with technology and harnessing machines into exploring new aesthetics. He has spent the larger part of the last 4 years in Sweden where he performed, exhibited and obtained a Master of Science in Art and Technology. An experimental electronic music performance using EMG amplifiers that harnesses the electricity produced through muscle contractions in my arms (EMG) to create sound, which is then processed using a patch created with the Pure Data software.(Similar to MAX, MSP on Apple Computers)

Im currently listening to a classic Hip-Hop radio show from the 90’s that Kano switched me onto, its by Stretch Armstrong and Bobbito.

This is the funniest shit, antics and callers being grilled callers so hard, check it out.

Dope episode with Quincy Jones and a guest appearance by Q-tip WKRC.06.06.96. HERE

Or the Krunchtime episode which is mayhem. WKR.97 HERE

These are from Stretch’s blog, Konstant Kontact. RSS it.

Just came across this fat as fuck mix by DJ Bud-4. So very very very fat, big bass lines and dirty chunky breaks. Takes me back.

Download it, never mind the early smatterings of Kuduro, just jump past them and its all good and then prepare to injure your neck to savory sounds of old school breaks.

I’ve got an uneasy feeling that Kuduro is going to be the next trendzoid sub genre that the ‘toy boys’ who were into hyphy and before that flavela will be patting themselves on the back over in months to come. Ohh well could be worse, its a distinct improvement.

Enjoy.

I just found this mix on the Mashit blog, by Ireland’s Pasta Masta, a mash up with some Hip-hop, dance hall, ect. All good so far….

Download it here.

Today at the Nice HQ, we were delivered our pre-order copy of the ultra fresh and fat as hell brand spankin’ new LP from the man Aesop Rock. Check the vid, pick up the LP None Shall Pass TODAY and we promise you will get laid.
