This weekend Your Boy Brian and I DJ’d at Lee’s Palace in Toronto. Check out the new Chromeo remix on his site, it was one of many new songs he played, and there’s some hot destruction going on in his brain. Big up to Pare and Truth Explosion on their birthday.

My boys Styrofoam Ones are makin it makin it makin it happen. Here’s a teaser of the action:

The Brit Awards
February 21

North America, this is how you do an awards show. Beth Ditto comes out and does Standing In The Way Of Control, Mark Ronson keeps his winning streak, word up to the producer world takeover, and Rihanna proves she’s a great rock singer fronting the Klaxons in the highlight of the show:

 

Alive In The Dead Of Winter
February 15

I met Futura at Sneaker Pimps in Toronto, and the creepy mannequins at Circa made his pictures from Toronto. Big ups to Dennis Chow for his designs riffing on classic Dunk looks in full blown letter jackets. When are they gonna start making these for real…. have a look here

Also talked to Stash. Thanks yous to Mike and Mike from Nike.

The other amazing thing going on at Sneaker Pimps was DJ Premier on the ones and twos. The legend. Watching this guy DJ was a history lesson I needed. Toronto’s party DJ champion, Your Boy Brian, was DJing right after him which leads us to this amazing ghetto picture with Brian kind of next to Primo:

And Bless, I’m all about you, cant wait to hear that new ish.

 

What’s New, Sebastien Grainger? Basically, Chocolate Bread
February 8

A YouTube vendetta against banana bread has begun, spearheaded by Sebastien Grainger’s new recipe. Their dog is so cute.

Have you been to his myspace lately? Used to be, I would camp out there and listen to the demo for When You Go Out, but there’s more goodies now. I heard those songs are a good preview of what he’s cooking up for his debut solo album.
