Rage Against The Machine for Xmas #1?
You need to a flashplayer enabled browser to view this YouTube video
Rage Against The Machine is being touted as the anti X Factor single for 2009 - not by the band, though they endorse it (who wouldnt); instead it’s by a protestor (he behind last year’s Jeff Buckley vs Alexandra Burke “Hallelujah” movement). Thoughts?

Since78
Since78 is a blog now purely devoted to music mixes of the author’s own design, but each themed around a supposed narrative. They’re called “heists” and, sure, most of them are given that noir, 60s film score quality, but the art direction and the range of music buried within (from Piero Umliani to Beastie Boys), [...]

Kraut Rock on BBC4
You need to a flashplayer enabled browser to view this YouTube video
The rise of Kraftwerk, Can, Neu and more fromthe Krautrock scene. The above footage focuses on Kraftwerk.
“Krautrock: The Rebirth of Germany” originally aired Friday 23 October 2009. Missed this. Shame. Looks interesting.
Uni Qlo Heat Tech Music Video (ft. The Drums)
Interesting new piece of marketing communications from Uni Qlo – select your own song for this sound-reactive video to react to. I’ve chosen The Drums‘ most excellent Let’s Go Surfing. Not appropriate for heat-tech winter wear, but fuck it. The tune’s too awesome not to share.

Hudson Mohawke
Mixtape coming out of somewhere damned cool. Hudson Mohawke (on Warp, natch) sounds like Dam Funk, Flying Lotus, Timbaland (and maybe what Prince would have sounded like if he was still any good) rolled into one buttery grime, new jack swing, dirty bass, dub, R&B cake mix.
Download his mix tape for The Fader: Hudson Mohawke [...]

Huxley, Not Orwell, Was Right About “The Future” (i.e: Today)
Related to the notes I’m keeping on The Future Of Media, here’s a great cartoon strip by Stuart McMillan based on words by Neil Postman – as featured in the book “Amusing Ourselves To Death: Public Discourse in the Age of Showbusiness”.
I reckon Postman’s book would go nicely on your reading list with “Everything Bad Is [...]

Theo Parrish
Anyone want to educate me on Theo Parrish? I’ve become interested in his sound having read this “interview” on the BBC, which albeit clearly a result of lazy journalism is also a really interesting response from a clearly passionate and talented (and opinionated) music producer.

Mos Def’s New Album Sold As TShirt
PSFK reports that Mos Def has launched his new album, The Ecstatic, as a t-shirt.
PR stunt definitely, but clever modern music marketing. Once again – like Prince, Radiohead, Groove Armada and the rest – it relies on already having a loyal fan base. But understanding this audience and how they interact with each other/music/marketing etc is what [...]
