KPSU celebrates 15 years of awesome

KPSU will be hosting their 15 year anniversary party this Saturday, June 27 at Pioneer Courthouse Square. The festivities will last from 10 a.m. to 10 p.m. and will feature performances from such local favorites as Nurses, Jared Mees and the Grown Children and Church. There will also be a boat load of awesome local business (NW Film Center, Ground Kontrol, etc...), a beer garden featuring Eugene brewers Ninkasi, photo booths and henna artists. The best part is that it's all FREE (ok, minus the beer part). Go on over, check it out and support your college radio station.

"No Reasons" not to love this

It didn't seem possible for VEGA's "No Reasons" to get any better than it already was... and then this happened. Thank you to the lovely folks at The Hood Internet for continuing to churn out some amazingly sick beats.

Tattoolicious

The NW Film Center will be showing Tattoos: A Scarred History on Sunday, June 21 at 4:30 p.m. The film is directed by British director S.J. Evans and includes the late and incredibly great David Carradine. Below is the trailer, which is not all that amazing (and definitely NSFW), but I try not to judge these things based on a poorly spliced up sampling of clips. I'm a big fan of both tattoos and Carradine; that's all it's really going to take to get me in there.

Finally, I can watch porn at work with confidence!

It was bound to happen some day. Sexy Clube, an adult website in Brazil, has developed a mirror that attaches to your computer, letting you see if anyone is behind you while you...uh...you know. Thanks to the folks at this fantastic blog for this hot tip on internet safety.

New video from Benîot Pioulard

Portland artist Benoît Pioulard has a new video out for "A Woolgathering Exodus" from his last album Temper, which was release back in October, 2008. I'm new to Pioulard's stuff but so far me likey mucho. The video uses some sweet, but simple animation and the song is a rich folky treat. You can watch it here. Below, is an earlier video for "Ragged Tint," another song off the same album:

Nite Club just released their new album, My Tronic. I have not listened to the whole thing yet but here is a pretty sweet cover of Kanye West's "Good Life" off of it. The video is kind of cool on its own actually:
