Fuckin’ writers strike sucks ass! Will we be stuck watching Terminator..Sara Connors Chronicles all winter? We now know this means I’m gonna have to do something productive and beneficial to my livelihood aside from eating couch snacks. Maybe I’ll go out and see the new Rambo movie..that’d be adventurous. Get all hopped up on sugared candy and cheer really loud for old man Stallone as he miraculously dumps three 100 round clips into 20 or so bad men also firing semi automatic weapons at him but mysteriously missing. What bad shots! Maybe he’ll get all bloody and have some sort of close up where he’s all beaten down and fire off some witty line and I’ll cheer like Jesus just walked in the room and offered me eternal life.

And if you were tape-copping back in those dulcet days, maybe you’ve still got these in that shoebox under your bed. So without further ado, let’s break out the beats.

Welcome, gentle reader, to part three of our further foray into low fidelity, as we delve ever deeper into the hallowed, hissy halls of cassingle history. Today we’ll keep it short and sweet with a couple of loose gemstones from once upon a time. So let’s put on our seat belts, don our protective headgear, and set the dial on the way-back machine for 1995. All strapped in? Then press the big red button, and we’re off! Wait, not that big red button!! Noooooooo!!!! (more…)

All kinds of crazy my friends. All kinds. Where to start..well. Happy New Year and shit..

1. Arizona. A month ago RC and I packed up the ride and headed east to unusually freezing cold AZ…. glass cutting nipples cold. Our good friend and fellow HBH’er Pickster was celebrating his birthday and as any other superbadass DJ should, by debuting his sweet ass new project Crusher Sound System. We stayed a couple days soaking in the scene fueled by booze and some good ol medicinal herbert…along with a few handfuls of our good friend Valium. The weekend went over in spectacular fashion and we packed back up to head back to Cali. (more…)

I had to get up on this. I’m well aware of Grand Grandito’s epic cassingle collection and I wanted to share a couple gems that I had laying around as well.. while I no longer have my Ini Kamozi “Hot Stepper” cassingle, or my Coca-Cola Sampler Tape that featured such artists as Dana Dane and 3rd Bass, I do have these few from the end of the cassingle era… first up…
