more free music...




found this mixtape from the guy WALE. thru one listen its pretty sweet. so either listen to it or download it and listen to it on at your leisure.

so far the best line is from bun b on track 3: "i lay you down, you only getting up if your name is kevin everett"

peace peace peace

kanye flashing lights

'ye has done three versions of the video for his song flashing lights, personally i like this one



of the other two the i like this one the most (sorry for bad sound quality)



i am really feeling the stop motion action. but i am so not down with the third one (link). the last one i think might actually be the official one - but that would be a waste of the other two.

free music

as of late, i have been finding all kinds of cool dj sets/mixtapes online. there are som really nice mixes out there and the best part of it is that they are free. some i found through searching for podcasts on iTunes. the one i will link to, i have found through formatmag.com (an online magazine that looks at music, art and clothing).



i dont know much about the djs, but their names are dj vibe & max barbaria, they have a few mixtapes up, but so far my favorite is their newest "love your family" (link). its a good mixture of mashup, rap & hip-hop and electronic. generally pretty good.


another thing is the remake of jay-z american gangster. its pretty sweet with some nice smooth beats and the tight flows from american gangster. there has been added a few appearances to each song. the name of the cd is black caesar. you can download the whole album here (link)


in other news i am pretty hyped for the new n*e*r*d cd, they have a new single out "everyone nose". its not the best song, i do enjoy the video, but the remix is mad. the remix has lupe fiasco, pharell and kanye west spitting hot verses. you can find it on pharells blog (link). here is the video

gnarls barkley video

quite amazing music video by gnarls barkley from their new cd. i like.



i love the african dancers, its nice to see the use of that in pop culture. sorry for the link post alone. i have been very busy with my bachelors project the last couple of weeks. it is unfortunately not moving forward at the speed which i would prefer it to, but it is moving forward. i hope to be done with it in the beginning of june. after that all i have is one exam in a course about india and then i have summer break. thats going to be really nice. anyways enjoy the music...

new roots song

i remember reading ?uestlove from the roots, talking about that he was unhappy that andre from outkast had beat him to making the first black modern pop rock song, when 'dre made "hey ya!". now i think the roots finally managed to make a pop rock song that topped "the seed 2.0":



i hope that their new cd which will be released on april 29, which i plan to buy, will be as good as all their other cds. for my opinion on the roots check this [link].

snoops crazy

snoop dogg has always been eccentric, now he has made a video themed in the 70s. well made, even looks like they filmed it back then.



in other news italian players are going to be forced to show good sportsmanship (danish and english). i wonder if it should be necessary to make it a rule. it should actually just come naturally after game that you show respect to your opponents. anyways, dont forget to give some rice to people as you help your vocabulary grow (freerice.com).

getting my attention..

Sometimes there i question why i like the website FreeDarko, but when they do a post where they compare the characterization of players as either hard work/blue collar with lazy rich/bourgeois, there is really no reason for not loving them. they are awesome at finding different angles to sports than the ones that the usual sports writers find. anyone can write about some game, but finding actual themes in the sports writing on a macro level is really cool. so please dont hate on the intellectuals, instead enjoy their brilliance. read the post HERE


ps i am not going to say i understand all the concept brought to life on the blog, but i do enjoy reading it

links


I have decided to introduce a simple new feature on this blog, where I post links to thing i feel need to share with people. Basically its all the site I have enjoyed visiting since last time I posted a collection. Any way here comes the first installment:

FreeRice.com No its another site that tries to free a basketball player from the bench, to be able to unleash his potential. But its a site the gives 10 grains of rice to "hungry human beings" for every word you get correct. It seems legit, they will help the UN, through the sponsors on the site. So you can take a vocab quiz and give something to other people by knowing the words. So start giving HERE

(heard about it on the radio, but a hat-tip to afshin for the link)

Bahaullah.org

Ever wanted a site that explain the life of Bahá'u'lláh through pictures. Well here it is. The Bahá'í World News Service describes it like this: "Rather than providing a comprehensive history or literary presentation of the Baha'i Faith, the new Web site aims rather to be impressionistic" So enjoy the presentation HERE

Musik Nu! and Angora By Night A good radio program about music - in danish. Who recommend new music and try keep people up on the newest music. I was fully enthralled last time I listened to it. Especially the interview they had with the singer from Bloc Party. So either listen to it online or as a podcast. Website HERE

While I'm recommending danish stuff, there is the danish satire show Angora By Night. Great for laughs, but sometimes a little too much. You can view all their shows HERE


This pretty much concludes the first batch, I hope to post more links regularly.

Before I end I just want to give a link to a great resource if you need to look thing up on the nets: schoolr.com. Another link is to a review of the new Jay-Z CD, holla! (link)

Enjoy

the 'ye on youtube

here are some vids of my man kanye on youtube:

good life - one of my faves from the new cd:



and him recently on snl - gotta love the freestyle at the end:



story behind the first video: last year at the european music awards, kanye got on the scene and made a fool of himself cause he lost to justice with the video for their song d.a.n.c.e.. i guess he saw the video (link) and decided to get the directors of the video to make cool video for him.

new fav song

yesterday i was surfing the internets and i was alerted to the song "crank dat". i think it was pretty popular in the us this summer. but being a european we get everything a little late. so i heard the song, downloaded it within few minutes and the songs has now has become my ringtone. the sound of "yoooouuuuuuuuu" cracks me up everytime my phone rings.



and here is a link for instructions to the dance (l.i.n.k.)

cassette?


i saw a link about this amazingly old school mp3 player, its pretty simple: 1. insert sd card w. music on it. 2a. plug headphones in and jam, or 2.b put it in cassette player and jam.


i would invest in one if i had a cassette player or knew someone who owned one. i might actually have to get one. you can get your cassette to play kanyes newest hits on here (link)

enjoy


thanks to formatmag for making me aware of this

is the blog still alive?


after a longer hiatus i am back. i'll give a short recap of my life for those who actually read this and havent talked to me for a while. as always in bullet form with some pictures.

i managed to get around this summer. i am pretty proud of my efforts. i am also happy for every one of you that i saw.

  • first i hit up norway - saw the sunnivator and her amazing family. her family is really hospitable always worth a visit, sunniva is pretty nice too. i brought my brother (alx) a long, he is a norway lover - he is probably going to study there.
  • second was some small country (which is the whipping boy of group f in euro quals.), liechtenstein. seeing as we (dad, alx and i) drove from denland to italy, we needed to stay somewhere on the way. bettina was nice enough to show the whole country. it is a pretty cool sight, definately worth a visit. bettinas family is pretty nice too.
  • i would like to make this statement: i love italy. this is despite all the obvious faults the italians have - which actually is a part of the amazing charm of this country. my italian is horrible, i understand a few words and people understand a few of my words. saw some bahais, all were late - meaning i had to stand and look pretty lost in both siena and bologna. they have nice train stations. thanks.
  • my family and friends of the family showed up from all over the western hemisphere to celebrate my parents collective 100th birthday for a week. which was awesome.
  • lastly i managed to go home to greenland and see the mountains and enjoy the rain. when it doesnt rain nuuk is one of the most amazing cities and everything comes alive. people everywhere smiling and enjoying it. i also managed to become quite proficient at playing wii golf and tennis. might have to invest in one of those...
i would recommend that everyone who likes rap, to listen to kanye's new cd "graduation". good cd, still trying to find a favorite song on there and decipher the lyrics. but i like "good morning", "good life" "homecoming" and "the glory". i am not keen on the song with mos def "drunk & hot girls" and "stronger" lives on the strength of the sample from daft punk (everyone who has slept on daft punk's "discovery" should listen to that cd immidiately)


in other news i am still in århus studying political science. i have heard this will be a hard semester, we have 3 courses: 2 mandatory, policy analysis and public management. and i am taking a course about cost-benefit analysis as a scientific phenomenon (we will be reading a book called "global crisis, global solutions"). the last course will be interesting, the first course is ok too. public management is not that interesting. at least i will be able to prioritize between global issues when i am done with this semester.

thats all for now.
