Look: A book!

....oder: "Wo schaltet man das ein?!?"

Literatur im schleudersitz?!? Äh, ja, warum nicht?!? Buchtipps von eurem guten alten Onkel TaXXXi!

Mein absoluter Lieblingsverlag momentan ist blumenbar aus München.

Sie haben sich nicht nur dem Erbe von Hunter S. Thompson angenommen:

...sondern mit "Macht und Rebel" von Matias Faldbakken, auch eines meiner Lieblingsbücher 2006 (auch wenns schon 2005 erschienen ist) herausgebracht:

(ABER VORSICHT: Nichts für schwache Nerven!)

Und auch der Rest des Programms kann sich meiner Meinung nach sehen bzw. lesen lassen. AUSCHECKEN!

Auch sehr amüsant finde ich momentan noch (sprich: ich bin noch nicht ganz durch) "Dorfpunks" von Rocko Schamoni (Studio Braun, Pudel Club). Nett geschriebene Geschichten, mit denen sich Ex-Möchtegern-Punks wie ich durchaus partiell identifizieren können.

Erschienen bei rowohlt.

Zu modern? Klassischer? T.C. Boyle, rockt, M*therf_cker!!!!!

Zu guter letzt, ein Lesetipp für Freunde elektronischer Tanzmusik. Hans Nieswandt, seineszeichens House-DJ auf Welttournee, beschreibt in seinen beiden Büchern "Plus Minus Acht – DJ Tage DJ Nächte" und "Disko Ramallah" (beide bei KiWi erschienen) wie es ist in
den entlegensten Winkeln der Welt die Platten zu drehen. Amüsante-Aufleg-Anekdoten. (Kann man übrigens prima die neue International Pony-LP "Mit dir sind wir vier" zu hören)

So ich denke das waren erstmal genügend Anregungen um lange depressive Herbst-Abende zu verkürzen. Beim nächsten mal gibts hier bestimmt wieder Sinnentleerteres zu entdecken. ;o)

Bis dahin: Feed your brain!!!
Cheers!

Music and Magazines

Aufgewacht aus meinem selbstauferlegten virtuellen Dornröschen-Schlaf, hab ich entdeckt, daß da noch ein Entwurf vor sich hingammelt und langsam digitalen Staub ansetzt. Is´ schon wat älter, aber who gives a sh!t! Check dem eZines, homes!!!

After discovering the nice little eZine FILTER mini the other day, I decided to give you a little overview on some other fancy-for-free-eZines.

FADER Magazine: Podcast featuring PDF+DJ Mix

DORKMAG: Only readable Online. Contents: Music, Fashion

CANDY MAGAZINE: Art, Sneakers, Photography

Die links wandern in die sidebar unter der nagelneuen Rubrik eZines!

schleudersitz TV

Since the tell-lie-vision has been broadcasting nothing but bull for quite some time now, and music-video-channels are not even showing music-videos between their ringtone-charts, the schleudersitz is bringing you some quality TV for free. And on that note: FUCK the GEZ!!!

So why don´t we start our show with some nice music videos? Some really weird shit, that MTVIVA would never ever dare to broadcast?

My good old friend BLEUBIRD with a nice little collage for his latest song "I make weird"

If you like that weird shit, like I do, subscribe to the Podcast of his label endemik (for free of course).

Hype of the hour BIG DADAs SPANK ROCK with the clip for their latest single "Rick Rubin"


A littlebit less weird, but also never to be seen on the usual channels is my best friend MURS with the video for his song "LA" (from his latest EP with 9th Wonder "Murrays Revenge" -> see also FUNKY BRAINDAMAGE #4)

You can also see it in better quality here.

A really beautiful video from a band called OTAFUKU REX starring a bunch of puppets(?!?) can be enjoyed here.

And finally for all you Space Night-Fans out there the first video of WARPs BOARDS OF CANADA can be downloaded here.

After all those appetizers, here´s todays main-feature: A whole documentary (1hr) about Bruce Haack, the king of techno on Google Video.

Hope you enjoyed our programme tonight and you will tune in again next time. Who needs a TV anyway??!?!?

*DANGER DOOM SPECIAL*

Finally the most anticipated interview of the (last) year is here:

SPACE GHOST meets DANGER DOOM (=DANGER MOUSE & MF DOOM)

Published in the free UK based magazine FILTER (mini) and available as pdf here!

(Also in issue #5 a virtual e-mail interview with the GORILLAZ, pdf here)

But that´s not all, folks! There´s also a new and exclusive EP full of Remixes and Skits called "Occult Hymn" on adultswim.com including art and the latest DD Video "ATHF" (=AQUA TEEN HUNGER FORCE). Also free, of course!

THANKS DANGER DOOM FOR SAVING MY DAY!!!

P.S. Somebody should be paying me for that shit!

The shape of things to come

To answer a few urgent questions first:

1.) Why is everything on schleudersitz going so slow? Where the fuck is FUNKY BRAINDAMAGE #4?

-> I´m fucking lazy!!! But ya´ll should know that already. And FBD#4 is finished, so what are you waiting for?!? Get it @ funkybraindamage.blogspot.com

2.) What does this beautiful picture at the top of this post mean?

-> That´s what I wanted to explain to you now, you moron.......

Festival-Time is coming! It´s getting warmer and the desire to move your body outside your stuffy rooms should rise, if you´re not already dead.

Me, myself and I decided to try something new this year, the MELT! Festival in Gräfenhainichen! Despite APHEX TWIN and THE STREETS performing there, the spot simply rocks (as you can see on the picture above, which shows the crane - the centre of the MELT!), the ticket price is OK and I´m looking for something fresh, so join me or die!

Another festival, which is coming up soon is the infamous HIPHOP KEMP, which we will terrorize for the third time this year. There´s not much to say about this festival, look at the schleudersitz-archive and you will know what the buzz is about.

I have a lot more on my mind, but comes time.....

So, enjoy the sun, buy your festival tickets and ROCK ON!!! Oh, and there´s a new track on our BECKSTOWN DYNAMITE myspace-Site, so at least check that out!

Peace!
