Return of the Mack...part deux

Once again, I've returned from a blog hiatus.  Apathy has given way to desperation and procrastination, not to mention the glorious discovery of some pretty dope new tuneage that must be shared with the world.  Keep an eye out for new and old favorites, hip-hop, techno, dubby, ma5hups, metal, and whatever else happens to strike my fancy.

Also, take a peek into my twerld.  Why not?

Ill doesn't begin to cover it

As if pro snowboarder Shaun White didn't already have it made...now he's got his own personal halfpipe.

For more info on Red Bull's Project X (stats, vids, photos, tricks, etc.), the evolution of snowboarding, and the super secret halfpipe's location, go here.  The video's on the splash page, too, if you wanna see some widescreen awesome.

While you're at it, check out this hot, all-electro odyssey of a jam (courtesy of my friend John).

Mille-Crysteena (Fear of Tigers Remix)

It's Friday afternoon and I have yet to do anything with my life.  Gonna expand my collection of Wale (concert next week?  Fingers crossed) and stuff my face.  Let's hope I get out on the mountain myself this weekend with my new Burton setup.  J-Rock over and out.

jams to crank

May 13th.  It's beautiful out, a rarity around here, and again I'm in the library trying to pretend the glow of the computer's gonna help me get my tan back.  But no big, more album reviews (The Chronic down, on to When Life Gives You Lemons), so I'm secretly loving sitting here rocking out.  Since I can only listen to a few songs over and over for now, I figured I'd share some recent favorite tunes (in no particular order).  As I look at it again, it's surprisingly metal-free...I should fix that...

Sick techno, some ill mashups/remixes, and a little bit of rap here and there (with a random appearance by Imogen Heap).

Not to play favorites, but I can't stop listening to I Remember (Caspa Mix) and Help I'm Alive (The Twelves Remix), so make sure to check em out.

(I Remember has the.  Sickest.  Beat.  Ever.  So even though the beginning feels like a setup for a lame song, just wait.  Trust me, it's worth the listen.)
