MAYER HAWTHORNE "I LEFT MY HEART IN SAN FRANCISCO"

2010-04-06T15:03:00.004-05:00

Mayer Hawthorne ends his two-month long US Tour on April 15th in San Francisco. To commemorate the occasion, Stones Throw has teamed up Huf and designer Freegums on an exclusive Mayer Hawthorne collabo pack featuring a T-Shirt + Heart-Shaped USB with Mayer Hawthorne’s rendition of Tony Bennet’s classic “I Left My Heart In San Francisco” pre-loaded onto each USB.

For more info on the pack, show, and party click here.

We wanted to make a video to go along with the release of the pack, and I was fortunate enough to be part of the video. The video was filmed & edited by Marty Reigel.

I don't know if you've seen the HBO show "How To Make It In America", but it's a pretty cool show for what it's worth. They just did an extra feature talking with some of the best skaters in NY about skateboarding as a career/lifestyle. The short is super interesting, and the show is worth checking out. All the episodes and extras are right here.

2010-03-08T21:55:00.002-06:00

I was doin little youtube lurking to further investigate a song off of the "Born Bad, Vol. 1" compilation, and came across this really cool video. The footage in the video is from a document/educational film "Ask Me, Don't Tell Me" (1961) about San Francisco teenage gangs. Anyways, here's some visual and audio fun for ya.

"Ask Me, Don't Tell Me" (1961)

If you can't see this video, try clicking full screen and hitting escape.

This was the album that has the song used in the first video. The album is part of an amazing rock compilation set that I highly recommend downloading in full. And since I'm so nice, I got your downloading frenzy all ready for you below.

Elliott and I were around the shop when they came in, so we both said "fuck it!" let's have some fun with it and make a lil extra dough. The outfits are pretty craze, and the photos are pretty hilarious. Thought y'all might get a laugh outta this, cause I sure as hell did.

SUNDAY MUSICAL REFRESHMENT: QUASIMOTO

2010-01-17T18:55:00.005-06:00

I would hope that you all are familiar with the first Quasimoto album "The Unseen". It is very dope, but extremely obscure album created by Madlib on a week long mushroom binge. The album came out in 2000, and was rereleased as a Deluxe Edition with a bonus album of all instrumental tracks. Don't get me wrong, the lyrics on the original album are incredible, but the instrumental album really lets you focus on all the amazing samples that were put into the album. I'm assuming that Quasimoto is a huge fan of the French animated science fiction film "La Planète Sauvage" (or "Fantastic Planet" in English) because he used a lot of samples from the film in his songs, images from the movies in his videos and artwork on his album.

I did some digging around for the soundtrack to "La Planète Sauvage" by Alain Goraguer and have come to like it almost as much as The Unseen. Just like the movie, the soundtrack is super obscure, and pretty random...duh. Anyways, here is "The Unseen Instrumental" album, and the "Fantastic Planet" soundtrack for your listening pleasure.

Woah, I haven't done one of these in a long ass time...sorry about that. With that said, let me kick this back off with some Bushwick, Brooklyn funk, soul, afrobeat, and all sorts of other dope flavors. I have been looking for some new new music to get psyched on and I think I found it. The Menahan Street Band is a band that you should familiarize yourself with.

NY TO CHI

2009-10-20T11:11:00.012-05:00

My sister made the cross continental move from SF to NY at the beginning of the month. I flew back to Chicago my mom and i drove a truck full of Renees stuff out to the east coast. We kicked it in NY for like two and a half days to spend time with Renee and help her get all of her things up into her new place. It was a pretty craze move up five flights of stairs, but definitely could have been worse. While I was out there I got to see Adam, Jon, and both their other halves which is always an awesome time. Before I knew it we already had to get back on the road headed back to Chicago.

Whenever I get to go back home and visit Chicago I always have an awesome time. I barely told anyone that I was coming into town, so I had to do a couple surprise visits on the old regulars. Stopped by Saint Alfred and Uprise of corse, oh and why not Rodan too. It was good to see a lot of the old crew, and I also got to kick it with my pops for a few hours.

The trip was so much fun, but due to all the bouncing around it seemed like it went by in a flash. I hope to be frequenting both places more, and for more extended periods of time. Anyways, here were the photos that I snagged in between all the fun and catching up I had to do. Thanks for all who put me up and reminded me of how good of friends/people you are.

OH-SHIT...late night car trouble in the middle of OH

BEEN A MINUTE

2009-10-03T11:49:00.005-05:00

Shit has been pretty hectic the past few weeks, and doesn't seem to be letting up anytime soon. So here is a triple/quintuple to get caught up real quick.

5 Things I've been up to in the past two weeks:

1. Helping my sister get ready to move to NY.
2. Tryin to see how little I can be at my apartment.
3. Figuring out why tre-flips hate me so much.
4. Drinking lots of coffee.
5. Getting ready to move into the new HUF office.

5 Things I'm going to be doing in the next two weeks:

1. Getting ready to go visit my sister in NY.
2. Giving everyone back in Chicago hi-fives.
3. Hopefully push around in NY and Chicago.
4. Drink lots of coffee.
5. Get my lurk back to a regular level.

5 Things that inspired me lately:

MODEST - A VISUAL SENSATION

2009-09-21T13:27:00.010-05:00

Mike Leary posted the new Modest video "A Visual Sensation" in full a few days ago. The video itself is really good, but since it had to be so compressed it isn't the greatest quality. Oh well, that means you just have to buy the actual dvd if you already haven't done so. The dvd's are stocked at Modest and HUF.

BRISKET FRIDAY'S

2009-09-18T16:19:00.003-05:00

There is a Chicago style deli conveniently a block away from the HUF store in Hayes Valley called Moishe's Pippic. This is the only place in the city that I have found that serves actual Vienna hot dogs with all the Chicago style fixins, and on Fridays they serve beef brisket sandwiches....yum. I happened to work at that HUF store on Fridays so I decided to have a taste of Chicago today and indulged in an insanely delicious brisket.

EXTREMELY SORRY PREMIER TONIGHT!

SUPPORT YOUR LOCAL

2009-09-18T13:47:00.004-05:00

In the newest issue of Vice Magazine Nike SB featured Uprise in a new ad campaign they are running which promotes shopping locally. The photography was shot by Todd Jordan and turned out super sick. It was really cool to see Uprise and some of the homies getting much deserved recognition. I haven't had a chance to fully check out the issue, but it's definitely worth picking up a copy to check out the ad which is on the inside of the back cover.

JETTISON QUARTERLY ISSUE 3 OUT NOW!!!

2009-09-16T13:42:00.007-05:00

The newest issue of Jettison Quarterly is out, and ready to be viewed. Each issue has been getting better and better in my opinion. If you have already been up on Jettison Quarterly, nice work, but if you don't have any idea what it is then you got some catchin up to do. Either way pull up a chair, make some coffee, get your snack game tight, head over to jettisonquarterly.com, and of course enjoy.

PAINT PARTY

2009-09-13T23:57:00.003-05:00

The new HUF office is finally going down! We were in there last night painting the whole spot before we start moving stuff in. I forgot that in the right circumstances painting can be fun and relaxing, especially with good friends, good tunes, and a case of buds.

I was at work one day and they came through the shop to film the segment for their new catalog and asked me to join in on the rush hour madness. Anyways, stoked they put my shitty ollie in the vid, and to see the rest of the DLX catalog go to their site.

SKATER DATER (1965)

This 16mm short film, Skater Dater, released in 1965 is an all time classic in the history of skateboarding and even short films. This is a very bad black and white copy of a beautiful color original . Posted just to share with those who had no access to seeing it at all. Noel Black's first project after graduate film school at UCLA was writing and directing Skater Dater, a short subject cinematic romance without dialogue, which used only music and sound effects to advance its plot. It won nine international film awards. In 1966, it was nominated for an "Oscar", and won the "Golden Palm" for best short film at the "Cannes Film Festival". According to Pyramid films who re-released it in 1971: An award-winning visual essay on growing up. Skater Dater follows a young boy as he emerges from childhood into adolescence. When he becomes interested in a girl, and loses leadership of the group in a test of skateboarding skills, he realizes that he is leaving his childhood for a new phase of his life. Written and directed by Noel Black and produced by Marshal Backlar. Scenes were shot in Cypress St., Lomita, Long Beach, Malaga Cove Plaza, Palos Verdes, and Torrance, California.

I also found a blog that hosted the soundtrack to the short.
