Bringin’ you joy.

Zach Galifianakis – “You Bring Me Joy”
I’m torn between wanting to hug this guy for being so fucking funny, and wanting to fight him for getting to be so close to Sarah Silverman in that picture.

Soulman Tapes

These have probably been posted a bunch of times, but listening to the new Phil Most record last night had me over at the old world of beats / Soul Man blog to see what he’s up to. Nothing new but we can forgive him when he’s flossing closet treasures like this.

Michna plug

Quoth the Michna:
Michna was recently in Budapest and missed his train back to Vienna. Good
thing the MICHNA BUS came thru. That’s his dad’s cousin in the middle, Otto
Michna. He runs an off road Rally team in Hungary. Anyways, if you wanna see
Michna spin records in the flesh, he’ll be at Happy Ending tonight.

iGame over.

Ladies of New York City,
If you’re on the train with your white earbuds, and you think that I’m looking at you a little too closely, I swear I’m not being all Shady Dude — I’m just trying to figure out if you’re using the new iBuzz. Destined to revive trance music and make dudes completely obsolete in one fell swoop, the iBuzz is an insane vibrator/cock ring doohickey that plugs into headphone jack of your music playing device, and then tucks away neatly and compactly, so nobody has to know that you’re totally getting off to C+C Music Factory. It’s only a matter of time until they roll out the version that’s compatible with your 60GB video.

Purple haze.

Dispatch from across the office:
“My old friend Jake recently became obsessed with finding rare Nike’s online during his breaks from studying for the California Bar Exam. Being the sweetheart, and newly rich guy that he is, he found and bought these limited edition, impossible to find, expensive as hell Stussy Nikes for me, which I received today express from Australia, as he was in the middle of finishing his third day of the grueling 18 hour bar exam at some convention center (ugh!). Shout out to you Jake!!! Thank you and thank your beautiful wife Vanessa for me! And congratulations on finishing your exam!!! Watch out L.A., you just got the best lawyer in the state!” – Alison, dance music litigator

scary and beautiful.

hello bitches!!!

BOY GENIUS RETURNS TO THE LAB BITCHES!!!
the washed up white man (frog, stoney, and honorary-white ph) held me down like they were kobe and i was a sweet young white fox. these blogs have been alright, but like Nate Robinson this past weekend, these guys hit only one outta fiddy.
What to expect from B. Genius…
1) titties, bitches, skanks, hos, tricks, and sluts
2) anything else I like at the moment.

FRANCHISE

ISIAH RULZ. HIGH FIVE HOMIE!
You just knew we were gonna be the suckers to pull the trigger on this. Stevie Francis, welcome to the fold of the New York Knickerbockers, home of the overpaid, disgrunted, post-surgery, hasn’t been exciting (and/or hasn’t played) in 5 years veteran. Seriously, we used to love Francis, and we’re rooting for him, but this situation makes Scott Layden look like freakin ge-ni-ous. At least Penny’s knees are gone.

probably one of the grossest human beings on earth.
he’s even got his own blog now.
no homo, but project runway is pretty addictive.

They don’t know about…

The whole Production Squad (myself + sometimes-reviewers Snackmaster Jay & the Commish) got pretty geeked when we saw the “COMING SOON” signs for Ferrigno’s Meats, just 2 blocks away from the Brooklyn HQ. (Even if, in our hearts, we knew it wasn’t him…) But, honestly, once we tasted their chicken parm sandwiches, it didn’t even matter to us that they hadn’t been made by a big, angry green guy (or grey guy if you get down like that). Roast beef sandwiches that they cut up right in front of you? To quote the Genevan Heathen, no fucking joking around. It’s a wrap. Head down to Jay St. and follow the dead-eyed worker drones to the one place that makes our their 9-5’s worthwhile.

Have you heard the newsflash?

Still trying to obtain visual confirmation, but word is that a friend of the Lab‘s music was featured pretty prominently in the opening scene of Grey’s Anatomy last night. Though the Pantera Os Danadhinos version of the rhythm would have been a more appropriate hipster pick, the Sandra Melody version making it on-air is still pretty decent, considering… you know, it’s ABC.
