NEW SLANG: so much more than a shins song

new slang: someone who gets in your eyeline is 'Oc Blocking' you.

the ocular block, new slang from the people who brought you 'flarn bombz' and 'cling clang the blink blanq'

ie. "quit oc blocking me, dude"

or

"how was the nickleback concert, bro?"

"dude with a top hat was oc blocking me, brah"

unhip? me? you gotta be kidding

Well, as if my new wall sized diagram of the starship enterprise weren't enough proof, I am now writing for the tragically unhip blog that some good ol pals run... i'll set it off with the Natalya/Magnus love story told in grand tones and with much sturm und drang!!!

New mix: in the works.

So, as you all know I have had a series of semi-monthly mixtape releases over the last couple of years. Here's a look behind the scenes as I put together my new idea:

THE NEW NAMES OF PORNOGRAPHY!

I like the band 'The new pornographers' quite a bit, for whatever reason I have fixated on songs they have put out with peoples names in the titles (ie. The Jessica Numbers.) As you may know, the new porns. are a 'supergroup' made up of musicians from many other bands/solo projects. And so a concept was born, a mix of tunes whos titles have peoples names in them from the new porns and their affiliates (ie. Zumpanos - Geez Louise)

Finding all the tunes (my list is at 23 right now) is proving to be a bit costly / difficult, and there are a few 2009 releases which have applicable songs (according to wikipedia) so I'm putting this one on the backburner. I thought it would be cool to also make a nice cover for once with illustrations of all the band members. See ya then
