This cheered me right up. It comes from Toneland, who in turn got it from here. All bloggers should give it a look see, it’s good for the soul.
Little things you should know about:
Math Head is releasing a record that’s almost guarenteed a spot in 06′s top ten. Math + Drop the Lime + Mad EP + Aaron Spectre remixes. Check it out here, it’s gonna be on Reduced Phat.
Jason is going on tour in the US. I’ll post a schedule when I have it (ahem, Jason or Zad?)
Drop the Lime is in San Francisco for a show at the Hemlock Tavern on the 10th. Don’t miss it (for SF types who read this blog but I’ve never met [especially playtherecords crew], don’t miss this, and let’s link up.)
This is insane. It’s everyone.

That’s the little bits in web world for the moment. The two big pieces of news with me is that A) I finished three mixes this week, and I have a 4th to post tomorrow, so I’ll spread that info as quick as I can and B) I’m now a regular columnist for XLR8R. Starting March you can find my column Basic Needs towards the back, in place of the singles reviews. More about that in a bit, but if you can’t wait till then, I have two articles in January, one on Debaser and one on The Bug. And they did a little front piece on me, which was very sweet. I gave them a funny picture, which they were kind enough to reprint. I’ll post it later.
Lastly…
I’ll end it by posting something Hollin sent to me. This is a friend from NC, someone who is part of the group that, untill 05, used to get together every New Year and hash out the top 10 releases of the year at the OCSC. I think I mentioned this last year. Hollin is one of the funnier people I’ve ever met. The only online presence I can point you to is this. Don’t even bother to click on the picture. Just read his top 10 below.
top ten. hollin’s most fascinating people of 2005.
10. Dale Earnhardt Jr.
yeah- i know- pretty fascinating. NASCAR. i’m hooked. not quite sure why, except that i live in a desparate place called raleigh, nc – and since then i’ve gotten a TV, become addicted to watching sports, and lauren surpised me with one of the greatest gifts i’ve ever recieved – a set, pewter no less, of dale jr mugs, beer steins, and shot glasses. unbelievable. february- daytona 500 on fox. go jr.
9. Zarqawi
killer at large. zarqawi vs. bush. intent on eradicating what humanity is left outside of carrboro. shit dudes. danger.

ha, that “What is Blog Depression” thing is marvelous. somebody needs to establish a Blogging Angst Research Center or something. maybe a foundation.
That pamphlet is based on real pamphlets about depression, epilepsy, diabetes, and other disorders…used to see them all the time when I was a kid but dunno if they’re still around now…
drop the lime, sweet. playtherecords will be there.
look for a shaved-head guy jumping around in a king tubby t-shirt, that’d be me.
i’d decribe you more as “a shaved-head guy jumping around madly trying to find the downbeat in a king tubby t-shirt” … ohhh!! i’ma try and make it too…
Now boys…
Yeah, it’ll be good to meet up at last.
