Ambassador of Boogie Funk

Chillin in box class on Friday messin around when Adrian Luther Jackson IV (from highendstroy) showed me this clip. This track is just my style with the 80s/8-bit/Synth swagger, makes me just wanna cruise the night away.

What year is this?

Been down with Miami Horror for a while now (Aussies DJ's can sho remix a track) but now it's His turn to shine. With the ep "Bravado" out and about he's got a mad retro/funny/chessy vid out for the single Don't Be On With Her. It even has vocals now, unlike the OG version that made its rounds on the web a long ass time ago. Anyways peep if for some throw back good times.

From The M.I.A. to P.R. and back

So I was gone for a minute, cold chillin, soaking up some rays, and drinking some good drink down in Miami and Puerto Rico. Now it's back to the grind and doing whatever it is that we do. Here are some choice shots and that's that.

WEST COAST PREMIERE

Fugly Sneaks/Dope Box

Adidas is dropping this, I think they're stupid ugly but the box they come in is worth the price of admission.

"The adidas Originals aZX project is finishing off with the above ZX8000 being the last pair with the letters Z and X represented by each shoe as well as representing the designer, Jacques Chassaing and the maker, Markus Thaler. The aZX collaboration project brought together 22 of the world’s key retailers and and partners and creating 22 sneakers in all. We saw a film last week with Jacques Chassaing and Markus Thaler speaking to the history of the adidas ZX family, the aZX project and of course the final sneaker that they had a hand in creating. Each of the 22 partners will receive one pair each of this special collaboration and what they do with it is up to them so keep an eye out for announcements for each of the 22 retailers."

After Effects is too fun

So we over here at DS85 dabble in some motion graphics every now and then. This is a little project I'm working on for one of my classes, ya dig.

Where Da Funnel Cakes GO?!

Some of you might remember the Unforgivable dude and how hilarious it was, and then nothing for like a year. Well it popped in my mind yesterday so I did a quick lil search and came up on these two new joints. Even after a year this mess is still funny (atleast to me). Be careful if you're at work, school, or have kids around cuz there's a bit of profanity.
