It's elementary school picture day, that means it's time for LASER PORTRAITS!!!
You forgot it was picture day? You mean your not dressed up for it? Well, it's ok, because neither did 90% of the other kids. Today, it's time to pay tribute to the best thing to come out of grade school.That's right, the laser portrait. You know what I'm talking about. Picture day, when you walk in with whatever your mom put you in (if you remembered it was the day), your done up nineties hair (mine was the classic chilibowl, complete with big dorky glasses), all propped up infront of, a lazer backdrop. Oh how I miss the 90's. The website laserportraits.net brings back the hilarity that was elementary school picture days.
Holy crap it's Jason Mraz!:
And the Chicago Bulls windbreaker? Classic.:
Yes, the ladder is the ultimate prop. It makes so much sense.:
We all went to school with this guy.:

Luke Skywalker's lightsaber was a camera flash!?
Ever wanted your own lightsaber? Well, I'm a nerd, so yes, I have. Well this 20 minute video shows you how to make an exact replica of Luke Skywalker and Darth Vader's lightsabers...out of nothing but a flash camera hilt (flash gun) and windshield wipers, that's right. Amazing, I never knew! It also shows you how to make Obi Wan's, out of a sink drain!?!? The real one was made with that, and a hand grenade. This is just crazy. Watch the video if you have a little free time and be amazed. I was.

Electroclash week: Felix da Housecat
Felix da Housecat is next on the list. This house DJ is straight out of Chicago. His sound is not as heavy and a bit more mellow. Great beats and awesome chillaxin music.
His remix of Nina Simone's "Sinnerman":
"Silver screen":
"Like Something 4 Porno"

Electroclash Week: MSTRKRFT
Here's the next wave of Electroclash for you. It's MSTRKRFT (pronounced "Master-craft"). They are a duo out of Canada who do not only their own works, but a lot of really cool remixes of other really cool songs. They team up with a lot of other great musicians too, adding their own spin of electrotunes to their vocals.

Electroclash week: autoKratz
I've just recently learned the name of the genre for some of the music I like. It's called Electroclash, and combines new wave with dance music (so lots of synth). Think bands like Felix da Housecat and Freezepop. This week will be Electroclash week where I'll try to bring you a different band within the category. First off is autoKratz. More great music from the UK.
"Always More"
autoKratz - Always More
"Stay the Same"
"Reaktor"

VHS or Beta
Wow, seems I've gotten busy and I haven't posted in a while. Sorry about that. Here is a band that somehow go away from me just as time has. It's VHS or Beta. Nothing new to the music scene, but maybe new to some of you. Still good music. They have a killer 80's sound, along the lines of Depeche Mode and Duran Duran. Check em out:
"You got me"
"Night on Fire"
"Can't Believe a Single Word"
