Back from vacation, I'm glad to back blogging again finally

Well, I'm coming out of my blog retirement of like a year..bout time.. I missed alot in 10 months. I've been DJ'n and doing shows w/ the band bigtime! w/ Kelly Castle Scott and thadisrad and lazer b, we've done a ton of cool shows this past year at the better venues around town, we are recording our full length album and have a release date in august, thx to Front Burner Studios here in Seattle. We are also making more real connections and collaborating and it feels really good, anyhow there has been a plethora of  new music and vids i have missed in my hiatus, here's a few new one's that catch my ears and eyes.

A Tooth For An Eye deconstructs images of maleness, power and leadership. Who are the people we trust as our leaders and why? What do we have to learn from those we consider inferior? In a sport setting where one would traditionally consider a group of men as powerful and in charge, an unexpected leader emerges. A child enters and allows the men to let go of their hierarchies, machismo and fear of intimacy, as they follow her into a dance. Their lack of expertise and vulnerability shines through as they perform the choreography. Amateurs and skilled dancers alike express joy and a sense of freedom; There is no prestige in their performance. The child is powerful, tough and sweet all at once, roaring “I’m telling you stories, trust me”. There is no shame in her girliness, rather she possesses knowledge that the men lost a long time ago.
