YouTube Music Video of Nappy Riddem’s “One World Sovereignty”
|| 11/27/2009 || 2:07 pm || + Render A Comment || ||
I recently purchased the Fort Knox Five‘s The New Gold Standard #2 [iTunes Link] and have enjoyed listening to all the tracks. The one song that really stands out in my mind is the final track on the album “One World Sovereignty” by Nappy Riddem. The YouTube music video above features a live performance of the song at Earthdance 2009 in Laytonsville, California overdubbed with the original studio recording of the song.
Thievery Corporation 2006 Blurb Book by Rob Myers

Last summer Rob Myers (1, 2, 3, 4) showed me the demo copy of the book and I absolutely loved it. There aren’t very many touring bands that have such a large cast of characters like Thievery Corporation and this book captures their 2006 international tour in a unique way that only a band member could. The 120 page photobook consists of 700 photos laid out in chronological order showing the band’s travels from Seattle to São Paulo during the Versions tour. Rob uploaded the entire book to Flickr so you can see the entire book before purchasing (soft cover: $45 / hard cover: $55). I am looking forward to getting my copy shortly.
If you are in the Washington, DC area this week, Eric Hilton will be at this month’s Modernist Society event. It’s one of the Washington Post’s best picks, so show up early. Check the flyer below.
Below are some of my favorite pages from the book:

So the other day I mentioned I was working on a mash-up for Google’s new Street View feature.
The result is the first google bomb for Street View— an improvised explosive device, with a message called Street View I.E.D..
