Just a day earlier I had seen him (Matthew Dear) knock out the most memorable performance of that years DEMF at an afterparty in an opera house with a giant chandelier. One of the most innovative "techno" producers in the world.

I vividly remember hearing this for the first time on New Years 2000-2001 in the main room of The Edge in SE Washington DC. The Eastcoast Boogiemen dropped it while they were playing the headline set on four turntables. Of all the memories I have in clubs during those years, this was one of the most memorable.

I made a dubstep remix of this song a few years ago and never did anything with it. I think I'll go back to that now.

I like their colorful yet rustic garments.

And their music, too. Still one of my favorite old school hard rock bands that had a taste of commercial success, along with Rage Against the Machine.

White Zombie - Black Sunshine

I was pleasantly surprised to see my favorite track on the album, Space, appear at the outro of this week's episode of Entourage. The least you can say about Entourage is that it has always been on the musical cutting edge (I remember hearing Kanye's Good Life on Entourage before the album dropped, years ago).

This track was produced by Rusko.

After getting mostly soaked I stop into a coffee shop and wait for the rain to stop. An hour later, it hasn't stopped and I'm still here. Damn you, rain.
