A word I did not know, did you?

The sound track in heaven consists of this.

The Amen break

Steve Albini said of Intelligent Dance Music “As the idiom developed, the music became more and more about the novelty of certain sounds and treatments, ridiculously trivial aspects like tempo and choice of samples, and the public personae of the makers. It became a race to novelty. I find that kind of evolution beneath triviality. It is a decorative, not substantive, evolution.” Man, that is exactly how I feel about concept art. I love you Steve.

I’ve been digging through my bins of old drawings and bullsh!t I keep dragging around with me. I tossed a bunch of crap, but I have to admit, many of the terrible drawings from my youth are impossible to trash. Here’s a few that I thought were kinda cute, and worth a quick scan.

Today’s kung-fu technique: Transcendent Serpent Attack

In case you were wondering about this nonsense, they’re from the kung-fu technique generator. Every fifteen minutes it generates another five hundred techniques or so. Try it for a spin. Wee! You’re an instant badass. In your mind. Now the Hoof-In-Mouth clan will never fux0r with you again. Once you have assembled an impressive arsenal of mad skills go here and get yourself a sweet moniker. I’m Imposing Powerful Cabinets by the way. You’ll know me by the sound of my roars and the cut of my drawers.

Tony Stark? If you don’t know, act like you know.

Gorky’s studio barn burned down in flames, he underwent a colostomy for cancer, his neck was broken and his painting arm temporarily paralyzed in a car accident, and his wife of seven years left him, taking their children with her. Gorky hung himself in 1948 at the age of 44.

It’s a must that I bust any mic that you hand to me,
It’s inherited, it runs in the family
I wrote the rhyme that broke the bull’s back,
If that don’t slow ’em up, I carry a full pack.
Now I don’t want to have to let off, you should of kept off
You didn’t keep the stage warm, step off!

Today’s kung-fu technique: The Uncomfortable Fairy Kick

The Glow - Willie Hutch
(Soundtrack from The Last Dragon 1985)

Now all the masters know that you need the glow,
You need the glow, the glow to grow.

If you love to live, you live to love,
Hah, you got to move to the upper level.

Cos When you got the glow, there aint no stopping,
