Big Freedia hits the mainstream and inspires a booty-popping butt-shaking sissy bounce frenzy across the nation! Shim said ” let Freedia come through” and they did. I love herm - Lady Miss Kier 

thanks Bianco Cimo!

I need to start every morning with this track.

I’m not sure how my friend Vince always manages to find such amazing music on YouTube but he never fails to deliver. The haze in this song is lovely.

saint etienne - tonight.

“Like the album it’s taken from, Tonight is all about the primal and atavistic pull that all good pop music exerts, about how the unadulterated thrill of a great band or gig can sometimes feel like a hotline straight to your heart.

 The track is produced by Xenomania lynchpin Tim Powell (Girls Aloud, Kylie, Sugababes), and mixed by Richard X, and in Bob’s own words, “Tonight is about the anticipation of going to see your favourite group. For some reason, I imagine this show is at the Forum in Kentish Town. The whole album is about the power of pop, how it affects and shapes your life.”

The Pirate Bay weighs in with SOPA and PIPA

INTERNETS, 18th of January 2012. PRESS RELEASE, FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE.

Over a century ago Thomas Edison got the patent for a device which would “do for the eye what the phonograph does for the ear”. He called it the Kinetoscope. He was not only amongst the first to record video, he was also the first person to own the copyright to a motion picture.

Because of Edisons patents for the motion pictures it was close to financially impossible to create motion pictures in the North american east coast. The movie studios therefor relocated to California, and founded what we today call Hollywood. The reason was mostly because there was no patent. There was also no copyright to speak of, so the studios could copy old stories and make movies out of them - like Fantasia, one of Disneys biggest hits ever.

New video from Perfume Genius. Mike and Alan are entering new territory with their upcoming release: percussion. The brevity of the video is rather lovely, I think.

My elected officials voted “No” – hey Seattle! – but yours probably haven’t. Call up your reps, yo, and kill them bills.
