So, VS and I dropped a mix of doom AKA the Purple Teeth (PT) Mix on the masses last week and I feel the need to highlight our contribution to the second installment of the Athens Mix exchange. I think PT was one of those magical collaborations that immediately following its creation became much bigger than the creators. The content, you ask, C$? A pinch of electronic, but not with a dollop of rockers - let's just say PT is the real deal. Check it out here....Also, I need to share the dance moves of the 'Man with Golden Boots' to those that haven't had a chance to see his genius - watch here. I don't have words for this.
And another You Tube gem is a movie I actually purchased on DVD (I don't purchase many movies or music) - it is that good. C'était un rendez-vous (It was an Appointment) is a 8 minute thrill ride through the streets of Paris. My main man Claude Lelouch, took a gyro-mounted stabilized camera on his Mercedes-Benz bumper and hauled ass. I really don't need to write anything else. Check it out here.
Also, I would be remiss if I did not mention my two latest purchases - a record player that has brought vinyl back into my life and an ant farm. The ant farm is truly incredible - with about 20 Carpenter ants amazing me daily with their 24/7 tunneling. Take a look at the picture from Day Four. As for the record player purchase, well, this was long overdue. I had forgotten the greatness of vinyl, let alone listening to it. There is a warmth there that the digital world simply cannot offer.
On that note, here is the Intro to PT- be warned this will prolly hurt. Next, how about something for the working man? Here's Tennessee Ernie Ford with "Sixteen Tons." Amen Ernie, amen.
