Some quick business:

1. In the survey responses, lots of people mentioned how difficult it is to comment.  So, I made it easy as shit.  You don’t have to login or register anymore, so feel free to chime in.

2. I put up all the mixtapes on one page for your listening pleasure.

3. I’ve stopped doing The Collective for the time being, working on another way to present that.

4. The Twitter Page and Facebook Page are both updated with stuff that I find mildly amusing that don’t make it on here.

That is all.  Thanks for reading.

Damn..it’s been a year already?

New mixtape should be ready next week.  I’ve listened through it 3 times and it’s a good time.

In the meantime, it’s Friday and this shit is classic.

I’ve only been to London once but I loved it there, which makes me exceedingly happy that it’s my second biggest city (behind NYC) as far as viewership goes.  Cheers you awesome limey bastards.

Andy Warhol, Jean-Michel Basquiat, and Francesco Clemente . Origin of Cotton, 1984. Mixed media on canvas, 50 ½ x 71 in.

From the exhibition’s site:

Andy Warhol: The Last Decade is the first U.S. museum survey to examine the late work of American artist Andy Warhol (1928–1987). Encompassing nearly fifty works, the exhibition reveals the artist’s vitality, energy, and renewed spirit of experimentation. During this time Warhol produced more works, in a considerable number of series and on a vastly larger scale, than at any other point in his forty-year career. It was a decade of great artistic development for him, during which a dramatic transformation of his style took place alongside the introduction of new techniques.

The exhibition is on display until September 12th.
