Allow me to introduce Munn Til Munn Metoden!

Munn til Munn Metoden

Norway’s own dynamic duo!  I’m not sure what language it is, but the English translation of the name is “Mouth to Mouth Method”…which just happens to be one of the best ways to spread an idea/story/cool new band/etc. As of late I have sort of become obsessed with dance/electronica music (i suppose that’s the correct genre), however at times when I’m perusing new posts on Hype Machine…I find myself having an increasingly difficult time telling the songs apart.  I’m not quite sure how to describe their music, other than dope!  Enter Munn Til Munn Metoden.  I hate to be cliche, but the best comparison I can reluctantly offer those unfamiliar with the genre is to say “they are kind of like” Daft Punk or Justice, or Soulwax (youtube or google all of them for reference).  Anyway, it’s quite a refreshing sound and they have some very interesting concepts that beg your attention…and once you give up a few moments for that initial listen, you will be hooked; I guarantee it!  Check them out here —> Munn Til Munn Metoden.  My current favorite on their playlist is OPTIMUS PRIME CRIME…the transitions on that track are phenomenal.

For Those Who Missed Out…

…on this gem that I first saw during that whole MTV Spring Break deal.  N-E-R-D featuring SantOgold and Lil’ Wayne.  Emphasis is placed on the ‘O’ in her name, because ever since I was first introduced to her music, that is how it was spelled; however, MTV for some reason had it listed as Santigold.  Anyway, peep the track…

Now That’s FLY!

Behold, the world’s first flying hotel. How’s that for innovative. This airborne behemoth has cleverly been dubbed the “Hotelicopter”. This gigantic flying machine features everything you would expect from a 5-star hotel—from private entertainment systems and room service to extras like spa treatments, yoga classes, gaming and a tea garden (i.e. the works).

If you were wondering just how big and powerful this flying hotel really is, check out the specs:

* Dimensions Length: 42 m (137 ft)
* Height: 14m (45 ft)
* Maximum Takeoff Weight: 105850 kg (232,870 lb)
* Maximum speed: 255 km/h (137 kt) (158 miles/h)
* Cruising speed: 237 km/h (127 kt) (147 miles/h)
* Original Mi Range: 515 km (320 mi)
* Our augmented Mi Range – 1,030 km (640 mi)

Its maiden voyage is tentatively scheduled for June 26th. There is no indication of price info on the website, which leads me to believe this is not for the broke and not-so-famous (like myself). Regardless, please excuse my language, but this looks like one hell of a ride…but I digress. This is sweet. Hopefully by the time I’m 50 I can book a room here and take one of those leisurely charter flights into space…I can dream can’t I?

I’m kinda in love with this song…

If my friend Chase heard me say this, he would promptly retort “No Homo!”…but I don’t care.  I’m not even sure what it is exactly about the song that I find mesmerizing…probably the beat now that I think of it.  Anyway, Theophilus London is pretty dope, so I suppose the song has to be as well.  And no, it’s not new…I’m just late.

Oh Em Geeeeee!!!

Finaaaally!  This is what i’ve been waiting for!  The official trailer for the movie I’ve been talking about for the past year and a half (ever since I saw the first spy shot of the set).  Without further ado…here it is!

Whaddaya think?  It looks great right?  I’m even diggin’ the song used [Aracade Fire - "Wake Up" (Acoustic Version)]. Talk about a dope collaboration…Maurice Sendak x Spike Jonze…who would’ve ever imagined :)

I’m soooo confused!

spring 09 SB\'s

Soooo, if you notice the shoe in the upper right corner, you will realize that it is in fact the oh-so controversial Heaven’s Gate SB Dunk…which coincidentally does NOT make sense, since these were supposedly scrapped due to the whole “it’s not cool to mock tragedies” thing.  Well, if this pic/post from Univ is indeed correct…these will be available in the very near future…which means I am on the virge of making yet another horrible decision with my finances.  Kicks are like crack!…i swear!

P.S.  I am a bit worried that this was merely a mix-up, since the name on their website is listed as the Unheaven’s Gate SB Dunk (even though that clearly is not the case with the pic)

Porn-vertising?

This is probably one of the craziest ads I’ve seen…ever!  It was made in celebration of Diesel’s (the shoe company) 30th anniversary, hence the XXX which is 30 in roman numerals for those not in the know.  Although it is still a bit risque, this is probably the closest you’ll come to in regards to porn that is “work-safe” haha.  Show this to your boss and maybe you’ll get a laugh…or fired haha.

Wonderworks!

Wooooooow….so I can’t believe that I forgot to post about this place!  This is the most fun (sober) memory I have from Orlando.  This place was like a more interactive version of one of those Ripley’s Believe It or Not! museum deals.  Upside-down buildings kinda stick out, so I was kinda drawn to this place as we drove by.

Outside of Wonderworks

Once you get past the ticket window, you must pass through the disorientation room.  It’s pretty much a swirling vortex of colors that sort of induces motion sickness…even when you’re not moving lol!

After that, there were tons of random things to do…

Maybe this movie won’t suck….
