Gotta have love for the videos.
Karl has some Video footage from this weekend’s Fuel show on his blog here. Pretty cool version of Nerdcore For Life.
I love these video clips (especially whole songs). Makes the fact that there’s nothing going on in this town Nerdcore wise a little easier to take. So, [...]

Aren’t I just a posting mad man today?
Well, this will probably be it for me today, but I needed to drop this little nugget since it definitely warmed my heart. Over on his blog Ultraklystron (I’m still shocked that I can spell that from memory now) mentions that he’s just booked a show for [...]

Thanks go to Glen over at Nerd Music for the tip that you can find some sample tracks of the up coming 8-Bit Operators’ tribute to Kraftwerk album over on their myspace page.
8-Bit/Chip tunes is something that I haven’t paid to much attention to. What I had heard just didn’t hit me in the [...]

So, there’s been all kinds of various videos that have popped up since my last comment on the CES stuff. I had hopped to link to them, but I came down with a cold earlier in the week and I’ve been pretty out of it since (see the previous two posts as examples). [...]

Jesse Jarnow posted an old review today that was never published by the magazine he’d sent it to. The review is of the Dave Matthews Band performance in Central Park a couple of years ago. As I was reading it I was struck by the following quote about the fans who were waiting [...]

I had a bitch of a time trying to sleep last night. At one point I got up and ended up flipping through music critic Frank Kogan’s Real Punks Don’t Wear Black. In an essay where he talks about the times he saw the New York Dolls back in the 70s he writes [...]

So last night I came up with this fun idea. Since I was bitching about the fact that nerdcorehiphop.org doesn’t have an RSS feed, I decided to roll my own.
So, I did a little digging on the web and found a script to work with here.
I then banged around in perl for all kinds [...]

OK, I’m heading off to bed, but I thought I’d post this real quick.
Ultraklystron posted a link to a Youtube video of him and Nursehella doing their new track. A track who’s name I’m not even going to pretend to type right now. May be when my eyes aren’t going blurry on me.
Anyways, [...]

So, I’m plowing through Nerdcorehiphop.org looking for stuff on this past week (as an aside, why isn’t this site just set up as a blog? Is there a fraking reason I can’t get an RSS feed with out have to scrape the page myself? OK, deep breaths…)
Not much new, but here are some [...]

New Benjamin Bear track over on his myspace page called ‘oh crap vampires’
I’m liking it, has that nice laid back vibe. Just noticed that Benjamin is dropping an album in April on Home Row Records. If the tracks playing on that site are his, then I’m definitely jazzed about that.
