bootie: psa

Bastard Pop is the mixing of two or more songs with each other, and/or adding new content to the mix. This is still just catching on in the US, from what I hear, as opposed to Europe where it is old news. The recent, oppressive activities on the part of copyright industry are likely to blame. Or maybe there are just so many versions of Missy Elliot's "Work It" that the average human can hear on the road to finding gems like Freelance Hellraiser's "Just Can't Get Enough Pills," Dsico's "Block Rockin' Woman," or the anonymous, joyful Eminem vs. Magnum P.I. mashup "Without Magnum." To those humans, I feel their pain, but say unto them keep digging long enough, and you will find gold.

Friends in San Francisco have been able to attend BOOTIE! (photos, photos, photos) - a club event championing this outlaw music form. The last one was on Feb. 10th, and the next one will be Wednesday, March 10, Cherry Bar & Lounge. There's also a new club thing starting (from the maillist): "And for those of you looking for a little mash-up fix before our next BOOTIE party on , be sure to come to the GRAND OPENING of our new club, GUILTY. GUILTY is happening this FRIDAY, FEBRUARY 20 -- and every Friday after that -- at the STUD, at 9th & Harrison in San Francisco. It's being presented by ourselves, along with Suppositori Spelling, and it's gonna be a "bastard pop rock electro hiphop whatever" party. Mr. Anthony from Glama-Rama will also be spinning. Adrian and the Mysterious D will be sure to throw quite a few mash-ups into their sets!"
I'd go if I could, but I'm not even on the right continent. (thanks, astra)

Dollhouse Trailer

Edit: Already deleted from YouTube; sorry if you missed it. This was a trailer for Joss Whedon's new series, "Dollhouse," about operatives who can have their memories altered to become new people.
