I’m Like F**k You, and F**k Her Too

Ceelo? Never heard of him until now. Shit’s fresh though. Just dropped Friday. This is some catchy shit and it’s the next huge thing according to D-Blunts. Plus I like the message it sends, the video is clever and I’m just in a go f yourself mood right now.
I haven’t done my song of the week for a while because I didn’t feel like it.
Saturday Song of the Week: Cage the Elephant – Back Against the Wall
httpv://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iT4Y2JleWrQ&feature=av2n
I rarely like new music – I’m more of a 90s early 2000s kind of guy. This is a few months old, but is catchy. PS this is being auto published. There is no way in hell I am awake at 9:30 on a Saturday.
Saturday (2) Song(s) of the Week: Crimes of War and Chip Tunes Suxx
Double feature this week – KEYGEN MUSIC!!! (you know, the sequenced music that plays in those keygens when you pirate shit on the internet). If that doesn’t ring a bell, it’s music created with several small sound sample files and pitch shifted to get a cool electronic sound. Head over to keygenmusic.net for an archive of thousands of chiptunes. Amazing. So – the music:

And here’s Chip Tunes Suxx:
Or download the actual file here (extract with WinRAR). It’s only 90KB (as opposed to the 1.3MB mp3 that loaded above). And yes, I do rock out to Keygen music
Saturday Song of the Week: Sublime – Romeo
It is my job to introduce lesser known music. A lot of people will know Sublime, but only the big hits, so have a listen to Romeo:

Romeo was released in 1997 (after Nowell’s death) off the album Second Hand Smoke, which consisted of half assed, recorded but never released material. I was setting up a computer lab with Pandora running when this came on, and it stuck in my head.
Props to the chill ass non-distorted guitar solo at 3:05
Three Little Birds

Today’s subway ride back to Grand Central was probably the best time I had on the Subway in 20 years. So I’m on the 6 train and these two rasta bros walk in with two bongo drums and a guitar and two folding chairs, so I’m like Christ, here we go again with this crap, leave me alone. The just roll in, set up shop, sit down and start jamming. Only like 3 people give them any satisfaction and they keep trash taking everyone on the train “come on mon, no love here?” Anyway, they start doing Three Little Birds and were actually really good and I’ve seen many shit subway performances before. I will take these reggae bros over these whiny bastards any day. I had to be a moron not to pop out the cell phone camera and record them. So they start throwing out little plastic maracas trying to get everyone involved. They throw one at this woman with a baby and the baby grabs it and starts rattling to the beat of the song. We all know how little patience I have for babies at this point because all they do is shit and cry, but it was pretty friggin’ adorable. Reminded me of something straight out of Disneyworld.
Needless to say, it was the world’s shortest subway ride in history. I’m pretty sure I got from 28th St to Grand Central in like 2 minutes, probably would have missed the station if I got just a little more into it. I just couldn’t stop smiling for five minutes after that – anyone walking by me must have thought I was some weirdo.
PS – Took the Q train for the first time today. So much for me assuming the 4, 5 and 6 lines the best . This Q train was like brand new, had all digital LED signs on board and was whisper quiet. Even the station didn’t smell like piss. Besides the fact that the West side sucks balls, I was impressed.
