why forgetting about cool stuff makes life worth living.

Because you get to re-discover things like "The Octagonycolegyst" (sp?) all over again. And marvel at the mind-blowing, kind of x-rated, kind of sci-fi, all around wild nuts adventures Dr. Octagon spits. (And it has kick-ass pushead art!)

Seriously, I try very hard to not turn this blog into an "I LIKE THIS AND YOU SHOULD TOO-fest", but for the love of god if you are not into this guy and shit like halfsharkalligatorhalfmen wake up and smell the awesome. You don't have to be into any kind of music, just the urge to have your mind blown HARD.

In other news I have been busier than a belt in a Wesley Willis puma-whooping contest. Did mixtape art for Mick Boogie & Benzi's party jam "Motivation", check it out on URB's site. Wrapped up doing a special edition of Sole Collector that should hit the streets within weeks. Some mixtapes for Steph Floss, album packagaing in the works for the metalheads, some apparel designs for lots of kinds of heads.

Season 4 of LOST starts tomorrow, warp 10 geek boners engage. Thanks J.J. Abrams, I haven't geeked out on anything for a good decade and you've brought that streak to a screeching polar-bear infested halt.

Rest in Peace Wesley.

Just wrapped up a cover for Terry Urban's new bananas mixtape "How My Brain Works". Terry alleges it is in fact "pineapples" while I contend it is in fact "bananas". Either way, it is an instant party jam session just in time for the holidays.

If you're in Cleveland, he'll be throwing a party in celebration of its release at B-Side Liquor Lounge with Mick Boogie This Saturday Night (Dec. 8), with copies of their new mixtapes ("Dillagence" & "How My Brain Works") on hand.

happy birthday hov! (diamond sign with candles)

It's here....(almost). - THE NEWPRINT BY Rocafella's own Young Chris and The Pride of Clevo Mick Boogie aka The Commissioner. Cover by some wacky guy.



Terry Urban is next....this one is shaping up to be something special, visually and musically. Prepare for wildness.

work!

Just posted some new pieces over at my portfolio site. In the works: Terry Urban mixtape, Killswitch Engage poster, and some new Mick Boogie mixtapes.

Life is good.

A quickie I designed, but a goodie - flyer for LA DJ Steve Aoki @ Touch Supper Club in Cleveland. Also featuring Mick Boogie, Terry Urban and more good dudes.

tushy shaking. money making.

Saturday Night (11.03.07) at Touch Supper Club is a monthly party I help some friends throw called "WYLD". Terry Urban, Mike Good Life, and Special Guest Mick Boogie will be spinning this weekend. All 3 can rock jams to the max, the bar serves cold refreshing beverages, and the halloweenery should still be in full tilt.



In other news, I just landed some cool layout work coming up for a sneaker magazine to be named in a little bit. Also received a little love from Germany on DLounge.

I also just stumbled upon the site LinkedIn, which is basically a myspace for grownup professionals. I'm still riding that wave of excitement over a site I haven't been to 42653567 times already. It's kinda text heavy but still super rich with features, and an easy way to find out whatever happened to the kid in the back of your 4th grade class that ate paste, wore pajama pants to school and smelled like cheetos, and what fortune 500 he runs.

Happy Halloween!
