Heating it up at eight.

The song we should forget is this one, which is a cover of this one, which is from the late 50s.

The end of June is here at last
And now, with warmer weather
We wave good-bye to comforts past
And know it won't get better.

Or, to be more clear on just what I meant,
Come down, tip the club, and help pay the rent.

This song by The Shins from their 2003 album, Chutes too Narrow, is part of the inspiration for the theme of today's set, The Sublime.  Enjoy!

High Comedy--an hour early

Oh! Look! It's the Beatles doing that part from Shakespeare's "Midsummer Night's Dream" that everyone forgets about.

Yeah, it wasn't all faeries. I mean, sure, there were the young lovers (Helen Mirren! David Warner!), but there were also those very course players who wanted to put on a show.

Speaking of shows, I'm putting on one tonight at eight.

'Tis midsummer, the shortest night,
But first day of summer, so say we!
To celebrate this longest light
(And lack of creativity)
To Velvet's floor, you, I invite,
To mock my rather blatant theme.

Kreativ In Den Boden - Longinus

Kreativ In Den Boden - Longinus

hoc est sepulchrum intus cadaver non habens
hoc est cadaver sepulchrum extra non habens
sed cadaver idem est sepulchrum sibi

This is a tomb without a corpse
This is a corpse which is not contained by a tomb
but the corpse and the tomb are one and the same

The weekend starts at nine

Hey, I got a thing tonight
That I would like to try
Because...yeah. That's basically it.
Care to stop by?

You'll never see what hit you....

In Japan, Sengoko period,
Came the ninja, or shinobi
The stuff of legend! Methods myriad...
The silent hand of high decree.

So, for my first set of this June
I'm going to play some Ninja Tune.

BTW: The movie these clips are taken from, Ninja Squad, is one of the worst films out there.

The Velvet gets Ugly

Heya Velvet Lovelies!

I am making my premiere as a DJ on Tuesday, June 18, 2013.  I'm going to do my sets a bit different than the norm, and this is where you will be invaluable.  Each week I am going to post a new theme and invite people to send me recommendations for songs that encapsulate that theme for them.  The theme for my first set on 06/18 is "The Sublime."  I made a Pinterest page to give you ideas about what I am looking for:   http://pinterest.com/uglyanajones/the-sublime/ .  Send me an NC in-world or email me at uglyanajones@gmail.com with your suggestions.  Thanks for your help!

Mykki Blanco - The Initiation

Seriously weird and fierce. The muscles of the psyche in the state of unbearable tension, in hell.
