Venice Biennale

The Venice Biennale opened yesterday!  77 countries pick one artist to represent them; it’s like the Olympics of the art world.  The artist gets an entire building, or pavilion (USA’s is pictured above), to work inside.  Awards are handed out and everything.  It’s pretty amazing.  This year Canada is represented by Mark Lewis, who works in video.

the interview show: times neue roman

It’s official. This interview made history on the interview show.
My chat with Times Neue Roman is my first 3way interview! I was in the studio. Arowbe, the lyrics guy from the group, was at his place in Toronto, while the rest of his crew were waiting to get out of a crowded parking lot after a Raptors game in Chicago.  Pretty effin’ cool.
For those who don’t know, Times Neue Roman are TO-based crew, new to the hip hop game. They use video game effects in their beats, leading some to call their stuff “high energy Nintendo rap.” While waiting to exit the parking lot, these guys were nice enough to talk to me about their beats and their take on the everlasting chasm between guys and girls.

Gastown Shuffle

gastown shuffle

Want 5 free drinks?

If you’re in Vancouver, do the Gastown Shuffle on June 10. And no, it’s not like the Stanky Leg. To take part, check the flyer for details.

You’ll need a badge for the complimentary drinks (1 beer or shot at each of the five participating venues) and Winnie Cooper has extras if you need some – just holler.

Here’s something to shuffle to… this is a classic, heavily sampled gem from 1975:

The Blackbyrds – Rock Creek Park

There was lots of vomit on the sidewalks down there on Saturday night. But I’m sure it’s all evaporated by now. Wooo Gastown!

Place Head Here

noose

So yeah. Had a rough night to put it lightly. Here’s how it went:

1. Playing songs for dancing.
2. Power overloads.
3. Speakers go dead.
4. Me wanting to die.
5. Fixed, sound comes back.
6. Repeat 2 thru 5… twice more.
