Casserole Takes a Long Time To Make

So, after a few months of lazy work (by me, not Kelly), and several speedbumps, Frankenhare is finally complete!



Frankenhare was originally a project for Tribes and Identity class that turned into so much more. Ultimately we harassed a bunch of our super talented musical friends to donate us some tracks so we could make a compilation with ALL proceeds going to help local animal shelters. We were blown away by the amazing support from the musicians, now it's up to you. I assure you the quality of the music is by no means compromised by the importance of the cause.

Here is the tracklist, which also works as a huge thank you list:

1. Kornell Fresh-Cross Your Mind

2. Shaun Boothe and Amanda Diva-Music Man

3. Emma Lee-That Sinking Feeling

4. Thunderdrone-It's On Me

5. Stemak-Should Have Built a Ceiling

6. Brown Knuckler-Down at The Laundromat

7. A Souvenir-Through Blue and Scented Vines

8. Middlesex Wrestling Team-Chin Up

9. Mindbender-Dreamer (Sound Resolve Remix)

10. Spoonfed Crypt Babies-Crypt Bicky

11. Debra-Nothing's Normal

12. Loophole-Bombchron

13. The Girls Can Hear Us-Now Move

14. For Better Words-Letters to Words

15. The Extremities-Driveby

16. Edmond Huszar & Victoria Sheahan-Far Away

17. Shithawks-Fall of The Foot


The thing is, as it's for charity, I won't be putting up a download link, you gotta track one of us down to get one, and they are super limited edition! So don't miss your chance to check out wicked new music for a great cause!

Same Old New Business

Okay homeys, sorry it's been a while (once again)...but here is some sweet new ish for ya:


You know who loves Amanda Blank? I do, and you should too. Here's why: she is easily one of the top female mc's (likely ever), but definitely right now. Anyone who can come up with a contender, I would be curious to hear. Ever since her legendary verse on "Bump" with Spank Rock, I was sold. Aaaaanyways, we are lucky enough to be treated to an evening with Amanda Blank, Trouble Andrew, and Santigold at Phoenix Concert Theatre in Toronto. Wednesday, June 3rd. Don't miss.

Download the first single off her new album, Might Like You Better.

Guess what else? The Carps and Woodhands, Phoenix Concert Theatre, Toronto, next Friday, April 17. Tickets are only ten bucks, and I have a couple extras, if anyone's interested. The point is:

The Carps are fantastic, a two piece from Scarborough who make some new jack-dancey-rock sorta jams that are pretty much impossible not to enjoy.

Woodhands are equally, if not moreso fantastic, another two piece from Toronto who's music is almost unclassifiable, but in your mind right now, you should be promising me that you will check them out. It will be well worth it my friends.


P.S. Woodhands' drummer is in another band called Rural Alberta Advantage, this is the cover for their first album "Hometowns"...must check...must check.

As always, the homies The Girls Can Hear Us are on some super dope shit, in fact they have just made (arguably) their best track yet...it's called "Ooooooh Yeeeaaah", so do yourself a favor and get into this shit asap.

Finally, I just wanted to say, I was handing out a bunch of copies of Zing! (Which you gotta get if you don't have it already). But as far as giving it out to people I don't know, I was very lost, and I came to this conclusion: Two years ago, any girl in a fancy scarf or any dude in a non Yankees new era (flat brimmed, more than likely) would probably be happy to receive this cd.




Zing! is a little strange at times, and kind of all over the place, so not really for everyone. But NOW, everybody has adopted this attire...and I simply realized, everyone dresses like they listen to good music.

I'm not trying to be a snob, are have a 'holier than thou attitude', just a simple observation. Anyways, those who enjoyed it, I'm glad you did...and I hope we can all continue to share in this positive manner, we are stronger in numbers.

Stay beautiful.
