Free Kutmah!
9 05 2010
This guy is one of the better producer/DJ/artist cats coming out of LA. Got to talk to him a bit at one of the Brainfeeder Downtown Sessions. Real cool dude and bought a hand-screened shirt from him. Please sign the petition at the very least, and show your support for the guy!
URGENT: FIGHT KUTMAH’S DEPORTATION!!!
Please support Justin “Kutmah” McNulty in his deportation defense.
He is facing immediate deportation unless we can reopen his case and show the authorities how vital it is for Justin to stay in our lives. This vibrant artist, dj and producer is a beloved member of the Los Angeles creative community. Help Kutmah remain in the United States!
Kutmah was born in the UK to an Egyptian mother and Scottish father. He moved to the US with his mother when he was 12 years old. They immediately applied for residency to keep them from being sent to Egypt. As a British citizen the court ruled that he would be able to live in the UK which in their eyes wasn’t such a bad place. They denied their application. Kutmah and his Mom returned to court to plead their case 14 years ago when Kutmah was 20. They were again denied a green card and were urged to sign a document stating they would voluntary leave the US.
On Wednesday morning, May 5th armed Immigration agents entered Kutmah’s house and detained him. He was brought to a facility in downtown LA where he was interrogated. On Thursday he was moved to an INS detention facility in New Mexico and can be expelled from the country at any moment. We need to show how important Kutmah is to the LA and US community.

Machete (For Real)
7 05 2010
Man oh man, am I glad that this trailer went from real to fake. Originally one of the fake trailers (or the only one in the DVD release) for GRINDHOUSE, the double feature from Robert Rodriguez and Quentin Tarantino, it’s been expanded into a full feature-length film (or should I say movie). Now it’s studded with stars and by the looks of it, promises to be one of the best action movies of 2010. I love that gritty charm that Rodriguez and Taratino put on Planet Terror and Death Proof. Coming September 2010.

Galatea of the Spheres

The homie Vezzen just popped this one onto the webbernet. Digging the beats and visuals. Hope to see more of this coming from the Hi state.
Flying east across the Pacific Ocean lands you in California on a secret sidewalk with Mike Boo, Pu22le, and Asonic Garcia. This kinda reminds me of what Mike Boo used to do with Ricci and D-Styles with the tablism, but of couse it’s nothing new to jam on samplers. Good to see them taking the performance to new heights. An exciting time we’re in.

Ah, yes. Taking this ablism setup to new heights, very very creative. Love the demo. Homeboy explains how it works after the jam.

Brainfeeding
20 04 2010
Been listening to the Brainfeeder Radio takeover of Dublab all day at work. Missed the first hour because the streams were overloaded. Finally got in for the tail-end of Take’s set. Nice way to get your brain fed while working for the man. Can’t wait for Cosmogramma to drop in full despite the funky leak. Sounding good, but I really want to hear the LP in its entirety, as tracks melt and flow into each other.
I really hope the House and the Senate come to some sort of agreement and finish HB2200 tonight. One too many reconvenes. That’s the reason why I might not be there tonight. The one time that my show falls on April 20th. I hope my sub takes good care of yall.
Been MIA on the blog recently. Working on a ender mixtape for the show since I’ll be wrapping up my time at KTUH sometime this summer. Keep listening and checking back here for more info. As always peep TravPics.tumblr.com for photos from my waking life.
