STAR TREK by kids on Cape Cod in the 70’s

My friend Gus Sanchez shared this on facebook and I cracked up.

Super-8 Fan Film made by kids on Cape Cod in 1978. Watch out for that vacuum cleaner weapon! Voices added 25 years later by some of the original cast.

Wouldn’t it be something if we got back to this kind of — heeeeey…

REVIEW: INCOGNITO – TRANSATLANTIC RPM

Incognito: Transatlantic RPM
Album Review by Daryle Lockhart

Incognito continues to let fads pass them by and stay focused on good, solid, jazzy soul music, and good songwriting. That’s what’s made them one of the best bands to catch on tour. Another thing that makes Incognito special is Bluey’s ability to keep great vocalists and excellent musicians in the band. “Transatlantic RPM” is an album that marks the band’s 30th anniversary, and, in an era where bands barely survive their 3rd anniversary without breaking up or changing direction, Incognito shows no sign of slowing down.

Tron: Legacy update

Let’s start with the most important update first: the new trailer revealed at Comic Con. Lots of story elements revealed, and more effects shown off. Lovely. A LITTLE more Daft Punk shown off, too, though not enough to really get anybody focused on the soundtrack. If you want to be surprised and learn the story at the theaters on December 17, you may wanna skip this trailer. If you’re like me and just can’t wait…take the jump.

Jazztronik – Mista Swing

not an official video, and no vocals, but this virtual tour treatment is a nice one, I think.

REVIEW: Fat Joe and DJ Ton – Welcome To New York

Fat Joe and DJ Ton: “Welcome To New York”
Review by Jonathan Hailey

If hip hop music gave out superlatives, Joe Cartagena would never win most popular. He’s better suited for the most improved. Because over his career he is the one rapper that has constantly grown in leaps and bounds on every album he’s released. With his tenth album gearing up for a July 27th release, Joey Crack decided to give the world a taste of the type of product he’ll be flooding the block with. ‘Welcome To New York’ features four tracks from his upcoming album and six remixes to popular singles out now.

The songs from his upcoming album,’The Darkside’, are way grittier and street than his past efforts. They create and excitement and anticipation for the new record. “I’m Gone” and “Kilo” serve him the best. The production is superb and force Joe to step his game up lyrically. Having The Clipse on “Kilo” doesn’t hurt either. As for the tracks Joe dropped quick 16’s for, he adds more than detracts from the song. He makes Diddy-Dirty Money’s ear splitting single, “Angels” audible for the first minute and a half. Also, his verses on cuts like Drake’s “Over” and “Find Your Love” are great. What’s really surprising is he holds his own on Kanye’s “Power”.

Overall, ‘Welcome to New York’ serves its purpose well. Fat Joe created the buzz he was looking to receive for his new album. He might actually win new fans with this because he sounds fresh and reinvigorated. And if the whole album is like this, it will be an enjoyable listen.
