This past week has been destroying me. That is all you need to know right now. There was some sunshine in my week though…that’s what I’m gonna share with you.
To begin, I got an awesome track from Bryan Cox… you might remember the last track I posted, which blew minds. This is another heavy hitter along the same vein… fidget house in full force.

when you’re stuck in traffic: party.

I was in my car, stuck in traffic a few days ago. I don’t mind traffic; it’s completely out of my control, so I take advantage of it and get to listen to some more music.
Since it was bright an sunny out, I decided to roll down the windows and party with the old couple in their car next to me.
Weapon of choice?

milan, so hot right now. (updated)

Pretty much all over Italy actually. Bloody Beetroots, Congorock, Crookers!
Another name you must educate yourself on is Pulling Teeth from Milan. They just released a track called New Era, and I haven’t been able to stop repeating it.
They said it’s completely original, using their own voices as the vocal track (where’s the girl at??). This track could be an anthem.
I was expecting an insane fidget/bass explosion from my speakers after the piano fade out, but the track just went silent. I guess a good place for me to drop some other gigantic sound. Pulling Teeth, extended mix?
hoooollly shit…. alright, here it comes. Look out for the insanity arpeggiation that leads out from about the 1/2 way mark. They remind me of somebody’s arpeggios… can’t put my finger on it. (teenage bad girl? RIP)
Giulio from Pulling Teeth updated me with some interesting info on the track, specifically those interesting vocals:
the real story, is that we went to this voiceover site, cos we wanted a female macy gray like vocals, and we heard this girl voiceover and we both felt in love with it.
she was not a proper singer but i did the vocal line that she followed then she went to his boyfriend studio to record the line and sent it over.
mail order vocals, hot in ‘08!

Do you ever find yourself drinking out of a water fountain outside of the restrooms…and suddenly the water pressure drops. You then hear the bloody toilet flushing.
Effing hate that.
update: also, say hi, join, be amazing on facebook
Update 2, 021708: there is some fucking douche who thinks it’s cool to ’stream music’ (some gross t-pain processed voice bullshit, u can guess his ethnicity) through the speakerphone on his ’smart phone’.
Can we all please use headphones so as to not pollute the air with disgusting music?
Update 3: oh god, is it seriously destiny’s child now?
*stabs pencil in ear*
It is going to be a long wait in this terminal.
there may be substitutes for love..

It has been a while since I cobbled together a poorly mixed, junky leveled mixtape. Here’s something for all those sharing some VD LOVE…
TUFTSMANiA - vd love 17h46 (right click, save as)
What is VD LOVE to you?
speaking of poorly mixed, junky mixtapes… Elena from GO! magazine in Lithuania messaged me:
Chris, today is really bad day, and not only becouse of loves day, its bad day becouse, i wanted to listen to bud no wiser, and than i founded that there is no bud wiser on my computer anymore, and even more than that, i couldnt download it from tuftsmania.com

Dear Elena, I recently purged all the tracks that I’ve blogged about prior to Janvier 2008. I will re-up any tracks that I might reference to in a new post. If anyone would like a specific mixtape, just contact me any way you know how.
and now, from the crypt… blast from the past…. click: bud no wiser. (my old shit makes my new shit look wayyy shittier!! WHY)
