NBA SuperStars


I've actually filled in a ballot right now...Elton Brand, Andrei Kirilenko (the fat man Zach Randolph nearly got on there for me), Allen Iverson (how can I NOT put him on?), Chris Paul (honestly, maybe my favorite player in the NBA at the moment, even if I have only seen 4 or so full games with him at the most) and Yao Ming.

East? Right, here I go...Chris Bosh, Paul Pierce, Gilbert Arenas (I love the crazy man...and I so wish he could have stayed in the Bay. Even if I have actually no idea how the specifics of Golden State's cap mismanagement/intricacies of 2nd round picks made it go down...I know Derek Fisher and Adonal Foyle are involved somewhere, though), Joe Johnson (Sage Francis woulda got my vote if he was an actual NBA player....they should fix that. Seriously, cause I nearly voted for Franchise by accident), Dwight Howard (seriously....man, is he awesome or what??).

And them's my votes. Ike Diogu gets my write-in.

And guys? My New Year's resolution is to know as much about the Warriors as I do about the 49ers....can I count on your help here? I really want to get back into the NBA as much as possible. I know the generals, because I've never stopped following. It's just the rabid, getting annoyed whenever bad things happenness that has left me in regards to the Warriors. It used to be there. I want to bring it back.

And more posts. Doesn't matter who reads....I'M GONNA MAKE AN AWESOME BLOG!!!!!

DEKLIN, HELP ME OUT HERE!!!!!!

Haphazard post; funk, Japanese pop, Youtube


*Cymande were a great funk act; "Brothers on the Slide" is such a seriously hot track. Laid-back in the coolest way possible, song will "get into your bones" after maybe 3 seconds. Also, spaceba r on m y k ey b oardis pu re fuck e d a nd t hatsen ten ce tookme 5 minutes to type. I m ay giv eup o n t h e fucking thing. Also, gonna use asterisks (I don't know how exactly to spell that) instead of numbered posts. Reason being, I didn't think to until afterward and I'm useless at blogger, and couldn't figure out how to edit them (the numbered post thing) in. Maybe I'll always use asterisks from now on.

**Second track I'll put up is one of my favorite covers of all-time. What we got is Funkadelic and Ruth Copeland doing "Gimme Shelter" from the Stones; it's a fine job.. Tag on the track will be wrong, but that's what the file should be called (also a WMA, as other tracks here are....)......

***Y'all might have heard this already, but Simian has remixed Dosed Became Invisible & Drugs, by Joy Zipper.

****Here's another good track; Eddie Gale - Song of Will (Jazzanova remix)

*****Also, I found an Utada Hikaru song tonight that's been on my computer for a while; I either never bothered listening to it, or had completely forgot about it. Anyway, I'll up it here. Apparently, she's Japan's biggest pop star, or something. Did not know that. I'm feeling some shoegaze on this track(reminiscent of the Cocteau Twins, kinda maybe); no idea what her other stuff sounds like or anything.

Utada Hikaru - Passion

****** Last thing; I'm seriously excited about Guillermo Del Toro's "Pan's Labyrinth". Here's the Youtube link to the trailer - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=e0zJxL0CHa0 . Looks terrifying, especially that fucked-up freak with eyes in his hands instead of his face. Dunno if they're gonna have it on in the cinema in LK, but I know that Queen's showing it at the end of November in the QFT.

Here's a new post!!!!!


Here's a UGK song I uploaded, so I'll put it here

Also, Black Moth Super Rainbow have some new shit out. It's an album with Octopus Project (who I don't know anything of, other than the one song I d/loaded when I heard about the collaboration). And it's a very good song, indeed.

Black Moth Super Rainbow + Octopus Project (The House of Apples and Eyeballs) - Spiracle

Also, some stuff robbed directly from Analog Giant.....it's Finnish Funk!!

Q-Continuum - Travellin Phase

Q-Continuum - Girls (Ladies)

So I'm making a blog at 3:45 a.m.....


Hey, I started a blog. Dunno why, but maybe I'll keep it up. And why not? Here's a track from Grand National, anyway.

Grand National - Drink to Moving On

Great track, this.....along with Midlake's "Roscoe", probably right up there for being close to my favorite song of the year. Except I haven't really thought about that, so it might not be totally true.
