One of the finest underground Pinoy rappers, Skarm releases some
new songs recently. Here I would like to share couple tracks, Amidst the night
and Hip-Hybrid. Listen below and free download is available.
I just dropped by ChezTwo’s blog and found this amazing production
with the theme “DISTRIC in Fxxkin Wonderland” as part one. The production
has been doing by ZNC from Singapore, Malaysia and Indonesia. There is
part two, I’ll post them soon.

By searching info of the below hip hop concert, I have found this
interesting MV by one of the featured artists from the show, Young Souljaz (楊素真),
together with 頑童E so & 渡邊. I quite like the way how they present
the scenes and lyrics via facebook.
The content of their song somehow reminds me - “Smoke Weed Every Day”- the last line
of The Next Episode from Dr.Dre ft. Snoop Dogg.
I reckon facebook is one kind of drugs if the users spend 24/7 on it plus
it affects their normal life or work so much, it’s really bad though. Seriously, one of
my ex-colleagues who is from Guangzhou told me there are refrain internet houses (戒网所)
in China giving special treatments to scare the kids away from accessing internet
or playing online game. What kind of treatments? Hmm…you dare not to try.
A softer way to recover, kids are also sent to Shaolin Monastery for the same purpose.

KanZeOn is a forthcoming feature documentary, exploring music
and religious traditions in Japan and the magical power of sound.
By clicking their blog, you will get more ideas of how the film comes
and what inspire the crew behind to make the film.
Apart from the movie, there will also be a vinyl and CD release of music from
or related to the film. The first collaborating artist is kidkanevil, with fortuitous timing
given the imminent release of his heavily Japanese flavoured album
Basho Basho. Check out one of the tracks.
Sound is basically everywhere, why not make your own music
with your imagination? The sources are all around us, probably your flavour
could turn into an unique one.
Remember one of our posts talking about the CMYK spray can?
Here we come the RGB pen with sensor inside. The idea is to scan any color from
your environment and instantly use it for drawing. This is an innovative concept pen
by Korean designer Jinsu Park. The red, green and blue inks are mixed together
to create the desired color after the color is detected. Not sure why RGB is selected for the
design, perhaps this is something limited to the scanner or detection at the point of view
from the creator. I reckon using CMYK would be better and even perfect if opacity function
could be added.
Will one day our markers, drippers, squeezers, become like this?
hmm………Maybe.

Japan’s largest Yakuza gang has become one of the most dangerous crime
syndicates in the world and should probably never be taken lightly. It’s that the organization
isn’t one you want to cross. Of course, they’d like to change our opinion about that.
How exactly did they plan to start? Well, the largest clan, the Yamaguchi-gumi
- who date back to the seventeenth century, and are based out of Kobe - started by handing
out gifts of up to 30,000 yen (about €240 / $330) to kids at last year NYE party.
In addition to the wads of cash, which were neatly tucked into envelopes
bearing the names of several gang bosses, various toys and snacks were also provided.
Witnesses say hundreds of parents accompanying children were seen arriving for the gifts,
which some newspapers estimate cost the group about €132,000 / $183,000.
