I ended up staying on posterous for about 1 month. Today I made the switch to tumblr. My blogspot and posterous will not receive updates anymore. Sorry posterous, but you just weren't cutting it.

The joy of finding new music - Slacker Radio. 1:00 PM
Usually to find new music I either look for new albums or read some mp3 blogs. Other times I listen to Internet radio, which provides different stations for certain genre's of music. Most people use Pandora, which is also available on iPhone. Recently however I've switched over to Slacker Radio, which I've also been using on my iPhone. It offers basically the same features as Pandora, but I find that the stations on Slacker are much better than Pandora. You can even upgrade to Slacker Plus which allows you to skip as many tracks as you like without getting held up by their 6 max skip song policy (although you can easily just change stations). Also, you can do song requests, but I don't know how that holds up as I don't use Slacker Plus. But for all of you using Pandora, check out Slacker Radio. I think you'll make the switch. 
Here's 3 Songs I found on the Indie Station. Check em out!
P.S. Oh and for all of you trying to find mp3's of music without using Limewire, Check out skreemR. I've been using it to download individual mp3's and it's been working great.

Nightcrawlers Remix/Daft Punk/Best I've Ever Had Video 10:55 PM
I was trying out my new iPhone 3GS that I just got last week while I was riding in my friends car, and hearing Pitbull's single "hotel room", I opened Shazam and attempted to tag it. Instead of getting Pitbull as a result, I got Nightcrawlers - Push the Feeling On, which is actually the synthe sample from Hotel Room. So I looked it up. and here it is.
But I don't really like the original, so here's a remix of it. Much Better!
and because I feel like it, some smooth Daft Punk.
and Lastly, for all you people still in love with "Best I Ever Had", you would expect the music video to be great as well. well too bad it SUCKS!

I'm A Deckhead: Nick Thayer 1:33 PM
Nick Thayer
Distorted noise is finally loosing its great influence throughout the Sydney scene, more and more people are becoming disgruntled with the loud noises, often waking up with their ears ringing from the night before, this also will help clubs who experience a lot of problems with the thousand of munted kids who only seem to enjoy this while fucked up.For the past year the Melbourne scene has been maturing with its appreciation for music, moving away from the distorted noise and bangers that used to plague most clubs, its now moving to a broader range of genres. I've heard about everything from great indie parties, to bars filled with nu disco music and of course Baltimore club music dominating underground clubs, as well as your standard fidget and electro sounds. Whenever international acts are flown into Melbourne the names Scatterblog and The Late Show are always affiliated with the crazy parties, and most of the most well known djs seem to be writers for both of these blogs, they also have a tendency to producer some killer tracks.
I've been sent through a killer collaboration by The Late Show's Nick Thayer and Scatterblogs own Mat Cant, its a big bassline rave version of Fatman Scoop's Be Faithful. After hearing this track, I decided it would be best to go hunt down some more of Nick Thayer's remixes and edits, his tracks have great versatility from big basslines, to club friendly hip hop edits and even the occasional mellow disco track, all coming back to a hip hop flavor throughout them.
Nick Thayer & Mat Cant - Pick It Up
Alt. LinkJoe Bataan - Rap-O Clap-O (Nick Thayer Edit)
In more Nick Thayer news he just had a tune released on Southern Fried called 'Rockin It' with Black Noise, and new single 'The Morning Sun' just about to be released on Passenger complete with Two Fresh Rmx. Also keep up to date with The Late Show blog for all his latest remixes, edits and mixtapes
This guy is legit. "Pick It Up" has that hip-hop electronica feel to it, while "Rap-O Clap-O" has that more melow vibe. Check them out.

I'm switching over to posterous. 12:05 PM
So if you're still reading this, change bookmarks or don't change them at all...but all new posts here will be directed straight from my posterous. It's just that much easier to post, especially new songs (and so you can download them easier also!) It's a win-win situation.

My new Desktop 3:58 AM
Today, I decided to customize my OSX desktop. I must've spent hours troubleshooting all the different programs that I used, deleting and replacing files, and a whole lot of internet surfing. However I'm proud to have finally completed it, and until I get sick of it, it'll be my desktop for awhile.
Oh and if your curious, the items in my dock (bottom right) are (from top to bottom): Finder, iPhoto, Adium, Safari, iTunes, MS Word, and Transimission, with the traditional Downloads and Documents folders. Hope you all like it!

Driving 2:45 PM
After coming home from the PI, I drove for the first time yesterday (actually, about 3 hours after I landed). I know most people don't say this often, but I felt like I had just got my license and it felt GREAT to drive my car again. Especially since in the philippines all you get is traffic 24/7. When I go off to NY, I don't know how I'll survive without my car.
Oh, and I'm also going to be trying out this posterous thing again. Maybe I'll make the switch soon.
and because I went to another rave yesterday, take a listen to this remix of Boom Boom Pow (original by bep, get the album if you havent!)

Black Eyed Peas - The E.N.D. 3:03 PM
I can't find any mp3's of this album except "boom boom pow"...that are DRM-free...but I just got this album and I gotta say...there are some really catchy songs on it. For all'yall, listen to "I Gotta Feeling" (there newest single), "Alive", and "Meet Me Halfway". There are some good party songs on this album...and I especially like the name of the album. THE E.N.D. The Energy Never Dies.
Check it!

Ferry Corsten - Beautiful
The picture above...a rave I went to last Saturday. Let's go again!
The song posted....if this won't get you into electronic music, I don't know what will.
I need to find a better word for "party" because I'm getting tired of saying it.

Dreams 4:41 PM
I've started to read my brother's tumblr lately, and he last blogged about dreams. Weird how both of us are having weird dreams...because I have also. You know how there's that period of time when you don't have any dreams so you want to dream but you don't dream... yeah. But now I'm having dreams back and forth, its crazy. Like every night. However, mine are a bit different from my brothers' because mine are like NIGHTMARES. Scary shit thats happening in my dreams. I wake up scared as shit because I think this stuff is real. I'll share one right now...
I was in my house just chillin with my friend Matt.... we were eating Ritz bitz crackers or something but we were just sittin around doing nothing. Then all of a sudden the doorbell rang and I got up and opened it. I think I was expecting the gaming mice that Alex and I ordered, but no. It was the manager of this store that I applied to for a job. He was HUGE and he just walked in and started invading my fridge. When I came back around to see what the hell his problem was, he pulled a huge knife on me. For some reason Matt had a knife also, and then they were just holding it up in the air like they were about to stab each other but they haven't yet. I saw my pocket knife carabiner on the countertop but it was across the other side (closest to the big huge guy) so I couldn't get it. Then all of a sudden the guy tried to slash Matt and we both did this weird ass karate move from UFC and he was on the ground. I looked at my hands and they were all bleeding for some reason. I grabbed my pocket knife carabiner and started stabbing him all over the place... but he wouldn't die. No matter where i shanked him, he kept coming back to life. So with all my might I hit his head with my fist and then he finally sat there. He was still conscious, but he wasn't doing anything, so I presumed he was dead. Then we proceded to all pray the rosary... wtf?!?! I woke up after that.
For all you reading this, don't think that this really means anything serious... Like my bro said, I don't think this applies to my life at all, except for the real life references (the manager guy, the gaming mice..) But its still scary nonetheless. I don't have a song to post right now, but I'll look through my iTunes and see if I can find something spooky.

Esperanza Spalding - I Know You Know 4:44 PM
Esperanza Spalding - I Know You Know
I was chillin with the band when Esperanza Spalding came on. I immediately got hooked on the bass lines and the jazzy vocals. Her stuff really shows the importance of the bass line and the influence it puts forth. Much respect to all bassists! This girl is only 24 and she attended Berklee College of Music... and now she teaches there being one of the yougest professors in the school history. Talk about prodigy. If you like this I highly suggest grabbing her 2 albums, Junjo and Esperanza.
Speaking of prodigies, check this 18 yr old Japanese guy out. Beatboxing has come a long way. His scratching is crazy! "I want to be the beat-ti-ta-box batwel wiyood card!"
