Dig This



Cleaning massive boats is difficult.

So is digging massive holes.


This track will make either of those tasks more enjoyable

Boozehounds

Boozehounds are an integral part of any party.
They are known for uncommonly large alcohol consumption and the ability to function there after and they often receive large amounts of admiration from there peers as well.

However they suffer from severe hangovers more frequently than most, they often become violent and injure one another as well as doors and they also have the potential to forget large portions of the evening and miss out on lap dances from the poker dealing stripper at the end of the night.

They always seem to have fun though.

CANVAS #3 preparations are well underway so cruise down to witness a large number of boozehounds in action. With the likes of Sotiris, Fence Tompkins, Dodgem & The Creep spinning and Sleater Brockman pumping out a massive 2 hour set Canvas #3 is set to go off .

October 30th @ Ruby Rabbit.. Get excited

In the meantime here is my latest track, a remix of one hit wonder J Kwon's Tipsy.

JUMPING ON THE BANDWAGON


when earth's finest man, dodgem olivier, put up his track yesterday, i realised that not only was i jealous and wanted to put a track up, but i also already had a track pretty much finished that sampled biggie as well. dodgem and the creep, we keep it in theme. it also samples the game, discussing how he woke up from a coma in 2001, the same time dre dropped 2001.

SMOKIN' SHOTTY



This track is dedicated to Notorious Hunt Nugget, a heinous individual from Sydney's north shore who has welcomed me into his household for the next few weeks.
He is by no means glorious but deserved of the dedication nonetheless.

This is the first original Dodgem Olivier track featuring vocals two biggies from New York, Notorious B.I.G and Big L.

The track is a bit of a biggie so if you enjoy stay tuned for more to come.

JESUS FUCKING CHRIST HYENAS ARE SCARY



I was watching law and order: svu a while ago and they had this animal trafficking episode. anyway this animal pimp had this pack of hyenas that he used to kill people. this, among other things drew my attention to the fact that hyenas are scary as fuck.

fact: chick spotted hyenas have dicks. extended clitorises. this is one hundred percent true.
fact: hyenas can adjust there body pressure to walk underwater and hold their breath for ages to stalk you underwater.
fact: they excrete a gnarly goo from their anuses to mark territory.
fact: spotted hyena clans can have between five and NINETY members, all led by one bad ass chick with a big ass dick.
fact: hyena women are both frigid and sluts. they won't sleep with like any dude in the pack, but they'll give it up to any stray that comes by from another crew. for hyena males this is the equivalent of going on a contiki tour in europe to finally get some after years of neglect in high school.
fact: hyenas have one of the most powerful bites to size ratios of any animal on earth. and they are not small!

anyway, hyenas are straight up ETCH. have you fucking seen the lion king? that chick is nuts, dude.

i wrote a song about it. not the lion king. hyenas.

DOLLA DOLLA BILL YA'LL


Vacation records head Bass Kleph has partnered with Stella MC to pump out their latest release 'Spend My Money'. Lucky for us Adam Bozzetto has been brought in to remix and really thrown down. Someone labeled it disco fidget but thats a fucking horrible way to put it. Its super bouncey and just plain great. Hopefully people stop inventing their own genres and just listen to this track and Mr. Bozzetto's July Mixtape below.

DESTROY DESTROY DESTROY


Prog, tech, bounce, fidget trio Destroy Disco are a steamroller. Killing every remix, release and bootleg i can't seem to sing enough praise. I caught these boys playing Chinese Laundry in Sydney not too long ago and they dropped bomb after bomb in a really enjoyable late night set.

Recently remixing Villanord, Jono Fernandez and Jokers Of The Scene you can catch them playing Phonic and the CANVAS night in Sydney, and Swung in Wollongong.They sent over this little treat for your aural pleasure.

FUCK STAIN SALAD WASHING



YOOOOOOOO

Work seems to fly past when there is a mothers group of full-breasted milfs floating around your squadron cheekily asking for vodka sodas. It has definitely been an eventful last week for the canvas crew alone with members being wrongfully arrested,  activities such as moon watching, spliff swelling and as of today datsun buying hotler. All shit aside, the canvas night has been released and were calling all peeps to get down and booogie on the 6th of August at Ruby Rabbit.. B-tron will be keeping a close eye on chookas stallions and escorting them straight up to the Tompkins & Hotler sets. If your in sydney for this shit don't miss it.

To put you in the mood here is Take's Newbie off Poo-Bah Records

ISLE OF RAD


See i'm well aware of the fact that Melbourne pretty much pales in comparison to Sydney which leads me to seriously wonder why down south get to cruise into the sunset, over a sweet bridge, in their deliciously leather seated automobiles having a ciggie and listening to James Kane.

I'm also aware of the fact i have access to the internet but that's really not what i'm getting at. Melodic and rolling be sure to hit up the below links and follow this man's extremely fun shit. Isle of space is cruisey as fuck and really makes Italo Disco sound much cooler than it already does.

Strawberry Heels















I'd just tagged my 1000th g-banger of the day and was eyeing this robe.
One of the most fantastic robes I've ever laid eyes on.
A beautiful blue number, complete with hood and the softest lapels..
Perfect for a cocaine and champagne party.

I began to drift off, contemplating the next haul when the highlight of every day i spend at work rolled round..
Amongst the drone of the shitty soft rock and gay pop that work insists on pumping out every day simply to piss me off and make me hate my job more, this little beauty from the Beatles provided me with the happiest 4 minutes and 8 seconds of the day.

The Beatles - Strawberry Fields Forever

Here's a remix by Mojo Jones that i found..

The Beatles - Strawberry Fields Forever (Mojo Jones Remix)


A bit of a banger but i look forward to transforming the original into a romper.




I should get back to studying..

It will be jazz fidget fucking great and more. $5 entry, $5 drinks, free champagne handouts, free clothes, guys in bunny suits frothing at the mouth and maybe a seizure or two. Hey if the night goes that well ill throw down with pack of chimps.

sonic YOUTH


sonic youth formed one day in 1981, when thurston moore and lee ranaldo took turns fucking up guitars with screwdrivers and chopsticks and shit and playing drums. kim gordon was there too and one day they got a drummer. 

that drummer was the creepy garage attendant who stole the ferrari in ferris bueller's day off. this is the number one reason to like sonic youth. for some reason he thought it would be a good idea to leave sonic youth after they released their first album to play full-time in another band.

anyway, cut to 2009 (that's now). these dudes are about to drop their 16th studio album under the sonic youth banner, or their 50th release including singles and all the other wacky shit they've done in their time.

sonic youth fucking rocks. sonic youth sound like i want to have a cigarette. isn't it a little bit late now to still be experimenting with guitars? because the now 51 year old thurston moore hasn't age since he was 24, i say no. seriously, look, it's fucking weird.

poison arrow is an almost pleasant one from their new album, the eternal.

kool thing is probably the most famous (i don't know if famous is a thing here) sonic youth song. it's pretty sick. you might like it. 

if you don't, fuck you, i don't care, it's rainy and i'm bored and i'm sick of it.

Nothing particularly exciting this week apart from an abundance of attractive mothers in my area, a big g-up for Hijack this friday night, something i assume will be sufficient for a saturday night, my realisation that im being fucking by Australian currency rates, and then We Love Sounds winter festival next Saturday June 6th, featuring Laidback Luke, Dave Nada, James Zabiela and many many many more.

My facial hair is pretty much at optimal length now too so thats as pleased as i can be, which is something good, just to let you know.

ON A ROLL, MAN



Back once again,

So after the first post im completely motivated to push out every track i make and to get down everything i do including the little irrelevant pieces of information. Half the reason im writing this is to be able to have that statement in writing, so if i fuck up, its really all on me.

Assuming thousands of readers, millions?.....nah, take an interest, wear Canvas tshirts, caps and apparel, and name their children after me is incentive enough.

Fence Tompkins should be writing soon and hopefully posting some fucked up tracks, and Marty, whos blog name is yet to be decided, will also be getting on this horse and cart.

To be preemptive im going to assume he goes down as either: McFly, M-Tussle, Tuss, Tussticular Cancer, or Mugato. Shit could have slipped my mind or maybe he'll throw a curve ball. He should have something stupidly interesting to say though.

CANVASCANVASCANVAS

Welcome to Canvas!

Pretty much over the next (x period of time) we will be trying to push underground, upcoming and fresh electronic music as well as anything that takes our fancy. Being the first post this is just introductory and to let you know that now we are part of the blog community.

I assume we will be getting out some substance and not just shit we feel the need to discuss, including our own production material, so look forward to Canvas kicking off.
