Sasquatch Party Drinking Budweiser in the Swamps of Auckland City

I had an awesome time at Rose's kick ass flat warming last night. I braved the cold wet rain to see her new digs and the place looks sick!! It's real shabby chic the best style in my opinion real cool old skool run down vibe in the best possible way do you know what I mean?  
At the party there were so many different people from all around the world UK, France, Germany, Venezuela pretty much every country still in the Rugby World Cup except for Palestine and a guy called Ari lying about actually being from overseas, you didn't fool me old chap ha
Let me paint a picture in the middle of the house was a never ending game of alcohol drenched you guessed it beer pong played with utter conviction by all soon to have convictions but this guy dude he was a virtuoso of the table of frat if I can use that word in polite light mannered way in relation to a terribly fun game like beer pong, he destroyed everyone who stepped forth to challenge him he even offered me his cigarette mid-game I politely declined!! His best moment of all the games was when he threw a ping pong ball which accidentally hit the overly large forehead off a girl and it landed in the last cup swirling around on the edge of the cup, it was like a little planet spinning haphazardly on its axis in a very ddrunk fashion before falling from grace and in a final act of Shawskahnk redemption "hi my names Andy Defresne" landing in the cup what utter swag!swag!swag!swag?



I forgot to mention I had to ran up a hill coughing and weezing, no really, to get some beers I thought hmmm why not get some Budweiser to get those old Americana vibes pumping through my veins like a full tank of petroleum gasoline fresh. But later in the night my good/annoying German friend Felix had to insult my beer choice while diagonally somersaulting into the neighbours hedge. He said to me "why are yu drink such vater berr it tastes like cats piss those bloody Americanzz" then he said something about winning the war anyway I didn't take his insults to heart cause for one reason one I stand by my taste in beer, but more importantly "the fifth amendment protects my right and ignorance to bear Budweiser in the swamps Of Auckland City" plus he was drinking someone else's long lost rancid by the looks of it very warm half drunk Tui yucckkk 



In other news I even got angrily accused of being Jesus Jesus Christ Superstar!!! well you know my friends people are really acting rather funny about my hair these days. I know its a lush unparralled piece of glory of which I am, very fortunate and appreciate to have on my head for however long I am blessed with it cue varnished 90's hair infomercial from my childhood but in all seriousness my hair is going away on a very long paid vacation to don't give a f@ck as I'm getting a hair cut very soon as Im sick of being part of the Sasquatch brigade people I want to be free free to be me. Which also reminds me off the utterly brain dead TV show about Hunting Sasquatches Bobo they don't exist go see a therapist, But Yeti's do exist if you count human ones your a shining example Bobo and don't forget in Nu Zelnd we have a whole breed of Sasquatach in society called the bogan occupying a small island off Australia connected to the mainland by a giant bridge made out of wallaby skin.



Argh finally as always my words of wisdom for the day "to much freedom is a truly terrible thing" take it how you want people And to conclude I am so sick of people asking me whether I straighten my hair arghhh For gods sake bruce almighty I don't straighten my hair, neither do i brush my hair unless it's a very formal occasion I do have manners lets not get to crazy. 
Finally finally I promise my true gem of deskilled knowledge given to me by a piper who played along the rough coast of the Taranaki peninsula last Summer you should always try to wait out the unbearable awkwardness at the start of parties were you know absolutely no one chances people are all feeling the same and also if your wingmen are crap and unreliable don't even bother word up peace out!

Ellie Goudling's going strong on her new song "On My Mind" I wonder if this song is about old Calvin Harris?

What I'm Listening too - Gabrielle Aplin, Xing, Saint Raymond

 Gabrielle Aplin


Awesome singer songwriter from Bath in the U.K. Her song "Please Don't Say You Love Me" has just gone platinum in Australia. It's a very heartfelt song and Australian's are really digging it.
She's born in 1992. She writes about "things i've done, places i've been, people i've met, cats i've met, dogs i've met... food..."

XING



A band from California, USA. This song is awesome because its a folk song very similar to all top 40 folk songs that have blown up but has some rocker edge. The string arrangement's kickass, vocal performance is nice and trippy and I like the big chorus sing along!! yes yes :)

Saint Raymond



Massive new artist Saint Raymond delivered up a brilliant pop song on "I Want You" this song really sounds so good and perfect. I like the lyrics again the vocal performance is amazing but I especially like the production on this song. I'm not sure if Jake Gosling had something to do with it maybe not but man this song is sweet!!

Jay-Z and Rick Ross - The Devil is A Lie - A song that Potentially tries to Justify Greed and Dis-crimination



Caught up in a racial debacle Jay-z was pressured from his die-hard fan-base to pull out of a racist designer retailer deal. The potential partner Barney's plans on stocking a new range from jigga man that was racial discriminating against black customers in New York.

The officially named "frisked shopping policy" saw people belonging to miniorties frisked after going into the store. Jay-Z said he would still go through with the deal and give all proceeds to his charity the Shaun Carter Foundation.

Thats seems a weak move to make and reeks of greed. But hey even our champs in Hip Hop aint picture perfect and some will put money over people regardless of what charity benefits.




Here is what The Fader pulled out of the song from Jay-Z;

You seen what I did to the stop and frisk
Brooklyn all up in Barneys like we own the bitch
Giving money to the hood now we all win
Got that Barneys floor looking like a V.I.M.
Black hoodie, black skull.


I'm not really convinced about the whole story but hey call me a sceptic!!! 

Beyonce and Jay-Z Latest single - Drunk In Love = Running Commentary



So what do we make about the most popular couple in America, two people that most look up to more than the US president and first lady in comparison. Well I'll give you my opinion for its worth it seems as if the song was originally written for Rehinna but she's probably pissed off about her botched tattooed hand (lol).

Here is my running commentary if you want to save 4 minutes of your life:

First shot a Beach somewhere in the mediterraean (nice)
Fade to black

Brooklyn Nets hat
Eyes

Dis-claimer: Jay-Z is a Champion :)


Premier: Little Mix - Little Me: The latest song from the new Spice Girls ;)



This song would be priceless if One Direction were singing it. The song is called "Little Me" by "Little Mix". I don't like the production that much it just doesn't jump out at you. I like my mainstream music more catchy so catchy I hear at once and can't stop myself buying their whole back catalogue on iTunes.

It's no doubt a solid attempt from the Spice Girls but it doesn't speak to me. A whole lot of young woman singing about being poor when they are on a major with a single backed by the dollars.     Seems a bit of a contradiction to be marketing to the everyday person.

I really dislike the monotonous speeches from the people but hey this could be your next favourite song so check it out. The song could grow on me but I just can't see it happening it just reminds me to much of past songs and it comes across as a bit preachy!!!

I'd give Miley Cyrus a spin over the pop tarts any day here is a much better song aye :)

Introducing: Tove Lo - Pop Music For Champions (Stockholm, Sweden)

Have you heard about Tove Lo yet? I have today and this girl is a super-talent the beat production is immense the vocals are butter smooth and everyones backing her from Marina and the Diamonds to the whole of the blogosphere. This girl could be the next big thing in pop music in 2014. She seems like an artist with vision and drive to succeed.

I'm really liking all her tracks on Soundcloud especially the most popular ones. It's great to see Stockholm, Sweden still on lock with their wealth of talent. This girls gonna blow up fast and I hope her words haunt you!!!

Shout out to Lucas Nord for his dope music as well!!! :)

Linkin Park, Aloe Blacc and Incubus Produce "Wake Me Up" with Avcii - Plus news on Katy Perry, Macklemore and Kendrick Lamar



Not many people know but there was a superstar team behind the song "Wake Me Up" that went number one around the world. Not only did Aloe Blacc come up with the main melody and lyrics. The guitars were played by Incubus rocker turned producer Curly Hair. Mike Shinoda of Linkin Park also helped produce the song adding that 10% love, you know.

After all this god-like Avcci came in on a hoverboard and destroyed the track with his synths and cheesy smile. Out dropped a number one hit of epic proportions. It's nice to see real muso's hitting the charts when it's been dominated by pretty trashy songs by Pink and Katy Perry.

I absolutely hated Roar by Katy Perry it was just horrible brainwashing stuff that had a politically motivated message that shouldn't be allowed on air without a dis-claimer.

In other breaking news apparently Macklemore is going to be used by his backers to help make everyone in hip hop look bad. Apparently he's gonna win heaps of Grammy's or a really important one, when Kendrick Lamar really should. The reason is due to politics as Macklemore is a new age rapper that is going to make all other rappers look like mean people that hate and dis-criminate. I'm not sure what to believe all I know is $50 for a t-shirt man do some simple addition.
