The Sights and Sounds of Record Store Day 2011

I am an idiot. A huge idiot. This is what happens to me when I arrive about two hours late to my local record store on Record Store Day. Interested? More after the jump.

Where In The World Is Earl Sweatshirt?


Hey people, haven't blogged in a while. Fuck it. Big news here and the shit is fucking WEIRD. Earl Sweatshirt has been spotted. Sort of. Apparently, Complex did some research and found out the whereabouts of the Odd Future member. And, honestly, this looks legit. And sketchy. More after the break.

Rareware And The N64 Era

Many people who grew up playing video games in the 90's might remember this little logo. Rareware is a British developer that develops games for Microsoft ever since Microsoft bought the company from Nintendo back in 2002. In the past couple of years, this company has been known to periodically work on games like Perfect Dark Zero, Grabbed By The Ghoulies, Viva PiƱata, Banjo-Kazooie: Nuts & Bolts, and Kinnect Sports. All these games obviously don't hold up to the company's entries on the N64. With this little countdown of sorts, I will countdown the 5 most important Rareware/N64. In no particular order, that is. Videos and descriptions after the jump.

Put This In Your Ears: How Did This Get Made?

Ever wonder how so many terrible films get made? So does Paul Scheer (Human Giant, The League), Jason Mantzoukas (The League), and June Diane Raphael (Flight of the Concords, Party Down). So much so, they decided to make a podcast about it. How Did This Get Made? just started around December of 2010 and has slowly released two episodes every month. If i'm correct, Paul mentioned about doing one once a week on a recent episode but I might be mistaking. Anyways, I highly recommend it. So far the films they have talked about were All About Steve, Battlefield Earth, Old Dogs, The Last Airbender, Season Of the Witch, and Burlesque. I have to say that the best moments came in during the explanation of All About Steve. Just get it for free on iTunes. Go and Enjoy.

Another Beastie Boys Post?

Here it is! The trailer for the new short film Fight For Your Right - Revisited. This film was released a while back, during the Sundance Film Festival and now everyone will get to see it. But how? Online, for sure. My guess, on the deluxe edition of Hot Sauce Committee Pt.2. Who knows. We'll wait and see. Until then, take in the trailer and try to find Mr. Shwartzman.

Hmmmmmmm....... DROOOOOOOOOOOPPPPPP

UPDATE: EMI SHUT DOWN EVERY VIDEO WITH THIS SONG. SORRY. JUST GO TO blog.beastieboys.com AND CLICK ON THE LINK TO PLAY THIS SONG. AGAIN, SORRY, FOLKS.

So the Beastie Boys are back and it feels like it's the nineties once more! This is the new song off The Hot Sauce Committee Pt. 2 (Pt. 1 is yet to be released due to MCA's ongoing health issues) and the song itself seems to be quite funky. How funky, might you ask? I downloaded a few albums and this song today and I've only heard one song since. This track reminds me of their 1998 album Hello Nasty. And I mean that in a good way. Be sure to check this song out. Download it if you dig it. Then, wait for May 3, 2011 for this and more songs to be released online and on CD via The Hot Sauce Committee Pt. 2.
Until then, here's Biz Markie.
