Muscles - Sweaty (SHAZAM Remix) video

Slow motion recording with a high speed camera. Pretty dope.

Music used is a remix of the Muscles track "Sweaty", remixed (and now released on Modular) by 17 year young Aussie cat SHAZAM (with vocal support from his friend Reija).

Grab it here:

The Great Glebe Garage Sale

Brown Town Rio and I hit up Ottawa's notorious annual garage sale earlier today.

Perfect weather, good food, beyond busy.

Found this at the first corner we hit. Pot growing lamps (cutting board included?). Same guy was selling "Vote For Obama" stickers.

A FREE FENCE?!?

Our favourite. Flipped down visor, on a serious mission. We called her RoboShop.

Everything was up for grabs.

This cat at the corner was selling "Arguments - all kinds". Subject list included metaphysical disputations, ethical quandaries, and lovers' quarrels.

Caught Curious George slacking off.

Live music.

Watched these 2 homeless guys put their loot together, purchase wheelchairs, put them to use immediately, and panhandle their money back.

Whoa.

Fan does Weezy's "A Milli"

This video is so beyond legit that I don't even know what else to say.

PG13 roadhead

Eyes landed on these earlier this evening. Right across the street from Bridgehead.
For serious.

Really really long track names

Songs with really really long titles remixed by dj duos = good sound, apparently.

Lucas & Nathaniel (Zombie Disco Squad) killin' it (surprise surprise):

The Ghost Frequency - Never Before Have I Seen A Man Alive That Looked So Exactly Like A Skeleton (Zombie Disco Squad Remix) (zShare)

João & Luciano (The Twelves) on point, as always:

Harlem dance party

These pics threw me back to this one time I walked into a similar function. I was grade 10, slightly over 5 feet short, Gap polo and all. I fit in. The spot (which I think they called "Momentum") was in a back warehouse, connected to a Subway and a Colour Your World paint store. The dark inside was just a massive crowd creating a small circle, where only the ballsy would challenge each other by flaunting their rhythm. Just a big room with good music - and sh*t got damn crazy.

Now listen to this fitting track...

Happy 14th, Filip

Birthday boy throwback pic! The then little brother is growin' up mad fast, kid is almost my height. Everyone says he's a mini-me, from sports and music obsessions to jokes and mannerisms. I remember being that age - requesting Mr.Vegas' "Heads High" at every school dance and hittin' the gym floor with moves crazy enough to, if ever youtube'd, make Shakira and Chris Brown rethink their lives.

Fil is on the same tip, just less foot trickery and more hand skill. I went home last weekend and near broke my neck bobbing as he sat at his piano dropping heavy bass notes while an uptempo "Lollipop" blasted from the computer behind him. So legit that he'll be spending some quality after homework time with Pat and me, tweaking his keys into dancefloor mayhem. 2011, watch out!

Srecan rodjendan mali!
