Move by Q-Tip from his new The Renaissance LP. Can’t shake this song from my head. Like the homage to MJ, too.

P.S. Fuck you, Universal Records. By cutting off legit channels to watch your music videos or listen to your music for users outside of the US, you just piss us off. It’s almost as if you’re daring us to use legally dubious methods to get what we want.

Watch Out from Atmosphere’s 2004 LP You Can’t Imagine How Much Fun We’re Having. Because their latest LP was so very, very disappointing.

So What’cha Want (Soul Assasin Remix) by the Beastie Boys. The Beasties meet Cypress Hill for what has to be one of the best remixes ever.

Paul's Boutique Remastered for its 20th Birthday

Paul’s Boutique is easily my favourite album of the 1980s, and it’s right up there with my favourite albums of all time.

They’re selling a number of different packages, most of which include lossless downloads, but can also come with 180 gram vinyl, a t-shirt and a giant 8 foot poster.

今夜はバギーパンツ (Baggy Pants Tonight) by Teriyaki Boyz. A nonsensical mash of Japanese and English.

Just 3 Minutes by Blox, a collaboration between Regurgitator frontman Quan and Spod is this rock-the-fuck-out-Friday’s cut. I can’t think of too many other songs that use the word “fuck” so many times within a minute and include a killer line like “and fuck profanity because it’s overused.”

Fuck yeah.

About Craig Anderson

By day, he works for ABC TV as a web dev­el­oper. By night, he plays bass gui­tar in Look Who's Tox­ic. He also runs a little Unix Time­stamp con­ver­sion site. There are plen­ty of other things he should be doing, but most of the time he's dreaming of what he'll do when he grows up while watching bad Star Trek spin-offs.
