Once again here is another "8 Track" mix. This one is specifically tailored for sedentary lifestyles and can be applied to most personal environments, such as kitchens, autobahns, and futons. Apologies for the 30 seconds of dead silence at the end of the Large Professor song, as well as if you're allergic to House music. As they say, the difference between poison and elixir is the dosage. Enjoy!

Artist Roll Call: Mr. Fingers, Large Professor, Omar S, Busta Rhymes, Atmosfear, Joey Beats, Meaty Ogre, and Nite Jewel.

"I don't think I had the sophistication to appreciate what a cultural shift hip-hop was when I first heard it, but I was also pretty young. I mean, when you are in 5th grade, every day has it's own eureka moment." - Stretch Armstrong

If you're remotely interested in rap, radio shows, or the original ZOO YORK, then you may appreciate this relatively new interview with DJ Stretch Armstrong.

A cell phone pic this afternoon in St. Petersburg, Florida.

I always wanted to put up a mix of some songs, but I was always afraid of getting entangled in some spyware popup mess that comes with using free e-storage. Luckily, 8tracks.com exists, which allows users to share their mixes, although not the actual files. There's some real restrictions to the site, due to the music infringement laws. I guess we'll see how it works out.

This mix consists of some electronic or instrumental music; some of it you may have heard. And I think there will be at least one track that you might consider to be suspect. Hopefully you enjoy it though!

Bill Stroebeck is one of the filmers behind the Alien Workshop videos in the past couple of years. He has also been featured on Epicly Later'd on VBS in the Anthony Poppalardo series.

The point is... Stroebeck has only recently been releasing youtube videos of his old footage, which outweighs the big budget skate videos without a doubt. Think Dan Wolfe's Eastern Exposure with Stroebeck's personal style.

Raw! Check 'em out.

I'm a little late on this, but here are some scenes from a recent art show we had in Lancaster, PA. It was a four person show featuring Christian Herr, Kris Harzinsky, John Slaby, and Keith Garcia. The opening was on April 4th and will end almost 2 months later, on the weekend of May 23rd. Info at theinfantreegallery.com
