WANTED: Street Cred

Looks like EA Sports is attempting give soccer some ‘street cred’ with their new game, FIFA Street 3, by letting you “Hit the streets with some of the best Pro Players and experience all the style and attitude of street football.” Allen hit some of us up to customize a soccer ball for a promo to coincide with the launch of the game. I figured this might help them with that ‘street cred’.

George Bernard x Uncle Geez

George Bernard hit me up to collaborate on some new flyers. Needless to say, I was honored to have the chance to work him*.

*Ok, so maybe I didn’t work on these. But George, love the style man. Hit me up if you need anything.

Boom!

Oh man, oh man. Todd James put up this post today. Out of all the craze, this one takes the cake. Is that David St. Hubbins wife?

Holy Are You.

David Axelrod was a prolific producer/arranger in the 60’s and 70’s.  Any of you breakbeat diggers out there definitely know who he is. And you’ve all heard his trademark heavily mic’ed drums before; he’s been sampled to death. Working for Capitol records with Lou Rawls and Cannonball Adderly, he consistently produced hit after hit for both of them.

Release of An Oath (1968) was Axelrod’s second album with the Electric Prunes (although none of the original members of the Electric Prunes were actually on this record). And its a strange one: a mostly instrumental “spiritual” concept album that is dark, sparse, moody and complex. But man does it fucking rock. Dramatic strings and haunting woodwinds, organs and hard-hitting drums with tripped-out guitar solos. Classical, rock, jazz, soul, R&B all wrapped up in one meticulously arranged group of songs. It defies categorization, and that’s always sign of artistic genius. Holy Are You . . .
