Sunshine Kissed with Blood

OK, so I was at one of my local not-shitty record stores, and found WAP100 (in addition to a few other things, not the least of which was Shitfuckers!), and holy shit I forgot about this, which used to be one of my favorites of theirs, which is totally appropriate now that the endless clouds in Portland are finally starting to give way to Cali-style sun:

(We'll ignore talking about the Squarepusher / Aphex track, because we all know that was the shit.)

Also, I've been listening to these two albums all day:

which might indicate I plan on stabbing some motherfuckers.

We are the robots.......

A friend showed me some videos a week ago and i have been pretty much mesmerized by them ever since. The band is called the Rock-afire explosion and they used to perform every day at showbiz pizza and later on chuck-e-cheese's. After a few days of promising myself that I'd gather the nerve write the email, I got in contact with Aaron Fechter who designs these things and i think he's going to program a FNBGS music video. We are talking at the moment about the particulars, but i hope he'll cut us a little slack since we a are totally broke and seems like a cool guy. If everything works out we'll be taking a camera crew to his robotics studio and the rest will be history.




This is a MGMT video, robots programmed by Aaron Fetcher.



This is an Usher video programmed by Chris Thrash. It's "make love in this club" and I'm sure someone out there might by influences to make love to a robot in an animal suit in a pizza restaraunt by this.



If you poke around online you'll see that there is a little controversy surrounding this band of robots because of some videos by Thrash (a former associate{?} who owns a "rock afire explosion", as per his childhood dream) went viral. If you want to begin to peer down this rabbit-hole, check out this video of Mr. Thrash.
