Paint That Shit Gold

Tue, 22 Apr 2008 16:58:27 -0500

We launched paintthatshitgold.com today to coincide with the release of Atmosphere's new album, "When Life Give You Lemons, You Paint That Shit Gold".

The site allows you capture and tag your favorite corners of the web (or your least favorite, if you're the glass half empty type) all while listening to songs from the album. Check it out, you'll find an audio player with a legit equalizer (finally!), and a realtime web capture utility.

My sad attempt to be a graffiti artist is pictured above. I'm pretty sure that you folks will be able to do better.

To make the web capture stuff work, we had to build a little internet rendering farm to tap into the pipes and process all those juicy slices of interweb that people are sending in. I've literally got one of fifteen or so machines sitting on my desk right now that's sole purpose in life is to load up web pages and screen capture them for Atmosphere fans. How cool is that?

Greg Patillo, Beatboxing flute player extraordinaire

Greg Patillo is a beatboxing flautist who gives classic theme songs a hip-hop update. Re-mixed with a little Axel F, Patillo gives the Inspector Gadget theme song some coolness, and his rendition of the Super Mario Brothers theme song will make you tap your foot to the beat.

Little Superstar: Indian Little Person Breakdancing

Fri, 22 Sep 2006 18:37:01 -0500

Before you head off to another lazy weekend, you should relax, unwind, and watch a mind-blowing video. I'm at a bit of a loss for how to categorize this as it features some really quality dance moves, synthed out hip hop, and a micro bruce lee with a chipmunk voice all packaged up in a campy Bollywood wrapper.

Awesome.

Finger Breakdancing Video

Sweet! I can't breakdance, but finger breakdancing is do-able. All I'll need is a 2"x2" cardboard breakdancing square and some phat hip-hop beats.
