The London trio, We Have Band, is signed to French label Kitsuné. Their sound has been described as “spastic bass heavy discorock”. I saw a video of theirs today, for “You Came Out” and really liked the music and the video.
The video was created by W+K creative team, Ida Gronblom & Fabian Berglund, and Blinkink director, David Wilson. It is a face paint animation film that was made up of 4,816 separate stills. Each frame was hand-painted, shot, wiped off and redrawn a little different for the next frame to create a seamless sequence. The whole process had the band members lying still for two consecutive days in a studio. Talk about hard work and dedication.
I’m sure you’ve all seen that Spectacular “grind off” video (Tiffny made a post here), because it has circulated all over the internet. Welp, Tila Tequila made a parody-response video to his video. She challenged him to a “dance off” on Twitter, and he accepted. My votes are for Tila (hands down!), seeing as how I’ve always thought she was a cute/sexy girl. Daaaaaaaamn, girl. Don’t hurt ‘em! Hahah.
Video after the jump!
I’ve never heard of the band Far until today. Apparently, they were a 90′s rock band, from Sacramento, California. They released 4 albums from 1992 to 1998. In 1999, the band split up, and each continued to still play in other music projects separately. Since then, they haven’t came back together… until last year. They confirmed in 2008 that they’re reuniting to put out a new album, to perform for numerous US dates and a small UK tour. Also, they came out with a cover of Ginuwine’s huge 1996 hit, “Pony”…
Yep, you know it just as well as I do. With all the coolness that’s posted on YT there comes the super crazy and wtf-ness.
So happy Monday, people. Here are two videos to put a smile (or a look of confusion) on your face.
Last night was epic. I finally got to see Semi Precious Weapons perform live, and I tell you…climatic it was. Obviously I’ve been in love with them since Yuri’s post, and I’ve been dying to see them live ( No joke; I’ve been watching and re-watching their performances on YT). Anywho, yes. Last night was Glamdammit @ Don Hill’s and Semi Precious Weapons made my night.
“My brothas, and, and… my ladies…” meet Slakah The Beatchild, from Canada. Slakah just released an album titled, Soul Movement Vol.1, through BBEmusic. It features collabs from a handful of Canada talent: Tona, Divine Brown, Shad, Ray Robinson, Ayah, Melanie Durrant, Ebrahim, and others. If you like that feel-good music, with the right mixture of hip hop and soul… then this is definitely for you.
From the album is the official video for “Enjoy Ya Self”. It is soooo smooth and soulful. The video fits perfectly with the song. Sit back and relax, because after the jump is the video.

So yes. Yesterday was Japan Day and it was really fun. While the festival started at 8am, I got there around 11 and met up with my friends who were already at one of the game tents (Shigo to be exact) and from there the fun began. First, after their game of Shigo we decided to get something to eat. Oddly enough so did everybody else, it seemed. Although the lines were insanely long, they moved quickly and it was worth the wait (which was like 10 mins tops).
