Hey everyone, welcome back to Sunday Skool. Today I want to introduce you to a FREE site that I turn to quite often to learn a whole host of things. Here you can learn how to use an MPC-60, how to produce a remix, how to construct beats, how to properly take samples, and even a little bit about DJ etiquette. But more importantly, this database has over 240 video archives with interviews of some of the most influential artists, producers, Deejays, record label owners, etc. Of course I am talking about the Red Bull Music Academy in London. Learn more about this extraordinary resource on the otherside >>
The week after Halloween is a bitch ya’ll – they’re keeping me busy at the orifice and heads are about to roll.
Enjoy this Yeah Yeah Yeahs video. f you don’t have the Atrak remix mp3 (which I tweeted about last week) yet, then hit me up and I’ll point you in the right direction.
Hey everyone, welcome back to Sunday Skool. Whew! what a long saturday night. First a Halloween Costume Party and then Tiesto until 3am. As I’m sure you have gathered from many of my posts… Trance is not my favorite genre (I know, I know.. it’s the #1 selling EDM worldwide, etc, etc). It’s just that I didn’t hear much progression over about a 10yr period… so I stopped listening.
Needless to say, when my wife wanted tickets to see the Jesus poser guy for her birthday, I wasn’t too excited about the somewhat expensive ordeal ($46/ea. gen admission). But guess what? I didn’t hate the show very much at all. I was actually quite surprised in fact. Tiesto has diversified his show quite a bit since earlier this decade. At least one of his tracks was an amazing mixture of a sort of 80’s/90’s Electroclash Vocal and some heavy beats. Of course, I’m talking about ‘Feel It In My Bones (ft. Tegan & Sara)’ from the new album Kaliedoscope released just this month. I found this video from 25 SEP 09 at the Hammerstein Ballroom and it seems his road show is identical everywhere because it looked exactly like this.

Now, I didn’t keep my eyes on him the whole night… but I didn’t even see a single Jesus pose…. and that’s a very good thing because I think we can all agree on one thing — The almighty posing business is absolutely annoying rubbish.
Editor’s Note: St. Louis, Missouri readers can catch Tiesto live in the burbs on Wednesday, October 28, 2009 at Home Nightclub (St. Charles, MO).
