Marijuana keeps strokes away!


"A bud a day will keep the stroke away!"

Now we all know that marijuana has great health effects yet it is still not legalized. In this video this doctor advocates EATING not SMOKING a bud a day to keep the stroke away. I don't know if any of you have tried that, but from friends I do hear it may give you a stomach and and will definitely not get you high. They have tested this on rats but have not tested on humans yet.

Check out this video! Just one more reason why marijuana should be legalized.

Smoke on fellow stoners!

Once again at the Las Vegas Motor speed way if you were there you witnessed the awesomeness that was EDC 2012. Seriously, most insane rave I have ever been too, the lights, the stage, and the good vibes, all awesome. Check out this lineup there's way too many awesome artists too even count. I don't know if I will be going because it is the week before my finals week -_- but hopefully maybe I can make it to one night :D.

out of control troll

This guy is bad!! WOW. WHAT THE HELL IS WRONG WITH THIS GUY! I guess this is how they troll people in Somali. BUT LOL at him catching the guy watching porn that part wasn't bad until he chuckled like a troll. I think they walked into some ghetto ass 7-eleven at like 1:08 that place looked so ghetto and they were all chilin there. Probably just a 7-eleven for fried chicken and watermelons. @ 2:04 that guy almost cause havoc by throwing a chair then some real chaos might have started.

Trolling?

Above and Beyond Part 1 : Their Names


Above and Beyond, my favorite trance group and my favorite anything electronic music genre group. I can listen to their music any time, while relax, sleep, doing homework, and when they DJ their music lives in clubs or any sets. Their podcast Trance Around The World with Above and Beyond is my favorite podcast and I have listened to many of their 418 *as of March 30, 2012* casts. Always enjoyable and awesome.


Honestly there is just so much to write about these three so for this post I am only going to write just general information about them (I am going to write about them in separate posts) and hopefully you take a moment and listen to their music and can enjoy it as much as I and people all over the world do. I suggest you take a listen to their epic TATW #415 that won BBC Radio's Essential mix in 2011 and they also won in 2010. It is a replay of their 2011 essential mix with "spoken word" here's a mixcloud link to it

Trance Around the World with Above and Beyond #415 BBC Radio 2011 Essential mix winner


This group was formed ten years ago in 2000 with members Jono Grant, Tony McGuiness and Paavo Siljamaki.

*edit: hmm i copy pasted something and it whited out their names are Jono Grant, Tony McGuiness and Paavo Silijamaki.

They formed their own record label called Anjunabeats, they also formed Anjunadigital and Anjunadeep which release different remixes and sounds of their songs which I will most likely write about in the future. To date Anjunabeats is on Volume 9 I haven't listened to all of them, mostly the earlier ones, but I do really enjoy the newer ones. And they released three albums but they released one album titled Sirens of the Sea as OceanLabs which is just Jono Tony and Paavo with the vocalist they signed named Justine Suissa. 


I am actually going to see them live at The Shrine in LA this coming May and am really excited :)
I will continue writing about Above and Beyond very soon! Thanks for reading!

NorCal vs SoCal Raves

This weekend I went to etd pop and it was fun I had a great time but there were noticeable differences between the two areas, after all southern California is a much different place than northern California. ETD Popsicle 2012 was held at the Oracle Arena in Oakland, California. The first very noticeable difference is in the people, there were many many more Asians but that really wasn't too noticeable. But the energy and feel of the crowd was much more different. In nor Cal it seems like people are a lot more mellow and don't rage as hard as soCal crowds. It isn't a bad thing because in soCal it seems that people get way too fucked up on drugs and  there are a ton of people on the floor just fucked up. But really those two were the only big differences and it felt like just another rave at the end.

I did also notice that Skills event has very loose security. There were cops walking around the event during the whole thing and they just seemed to turn a blind eye to basically everything more so than Insomniac events. They hardly even frisked me and anyone could have gotten anything through I would honestly not have been surprised if some people were able to take in weapons and some other big things.

Oh and there was WAY MORE dubstep! Too much dubstep for my taste I do like to listen to dubstep at raves and rage every now and then while the DJ spins dubstep but it seems like Dash Berlin played mostly dubstep and so did Benny Benassi which is definitely not their styles.

But all in all I had fun at ETD Popsicle 2012 and would recommend anyone to go.

And for my favorite song of the night! Armin van Buuren - Not giving up on love (Dash Berlin's 4AM remix)

Dash Berlin


I never really liked Dash Berlin too much, but since I'm going to Electronic Techno Disco Popsicle (ETD Pop what a weird name) I thought I might as well. And I wiki'd him and looked him up on Google and I found it interesting that Dash Berlin isn't just one person but a group *project.

And there is one man that tours the world spreading the Dash Berlin sound that DJ is Jeffrey Preject. Dash Berlin's songs are very trancey if you look up his songs you  notice what I mean. His style seems very slow to me and he utilizes many synthesizer sounds. Dash Berlin also played at Winter Music Conference in Miami this past week and I listened to his set and it was pretty awesome maybe because hes been throwing in some dubstep in his sets so it is a lot more enjoyable and easy to rage too haha.

Nevertheless I am looking forward to seeing Dash Berlin tonight after all he is number 15 on DJ Mag's top 100 DJ list. I do enjoy trance music and Dash Berlin is a huge head in trance music. Oh and I forgot to mention he is signed to Armada music.

Benny Benassi

I was originally going to write about Above and Beyond today but I think that will have to wait because I am going to see Benny Benassi (real name Marco Benassi) at ETD Popsicle! Of course there are other artists attending but this Italian disc jockey is headlining. I know for sure everyone knows at least one song from BB - Satisfaction.
This song was released years ago and has racked up 13million views. Half of them probably come from that amazing rack right theeeerreeee. But if you youtube do a youtube search for Benny Benassi it is litterally more than 3 pages of his song Cinema and Skrillex's awesome remix of it. Honestly I am not a big fan of Benny Benassi but he is a powerhouse name in the world of electronic music. He has signed with a few record labels in his time, most notably Ultra and Ministry of Sound. Even though I am not that big of a fan I know that he will play one hell of a set at ETD Popsicle and I really do hope that he drops Skrillex's remix I wanna rage to that haha! Oh and another interesting little fact about him he is #27 on DJ Mag's top 100 DJ list this year!


Intro to my blog

I posted two entries already, but I have yet to introduce myself. I am a 20 year old Korean-American male living in the best state in the United States, California. I never really listened to any EDM, techno, house, trance or any kind of electronic music until I got to college, and really that was when I believe it really started to blow up. Before I got to college I've only heard of really big names two specifically, Kaskade and Deadmau5. (WOW deadmau5 doesn't have the little squiggly red line under it o.o) And really and of course the song that I liked that was produced by both of these American DJ's was titled I Remember.

This song is really a true mix of both these DJ's styles. In the near future I will most definitely do a write up about both these great American DJ's. but for now I'll keep writing about how I got into electronic music.

 After I got into college I met a bunch of new people that were really into this kind of  music. I never really gave in until I decided to go to my first rave. And wow that was pretty awesome, mostly because of the drugs. Ecstasy is one hell of a drug. If it weren't for this little pill I'm not to sure electronic music would be where it is now. I remember my favorite song back then, almost two years ago, was Afrojack - Take Over Control



And since then I looked up songs, artists, and record labels on my own and my library of music now has quite the collection of electronic songs, but it is still mostly hip-hop and rap.

To end this post, I want to say that this blog will be my write-up of what I find on artists I like. Even though I have been listening to electronic music for almost two years I hardly know the history or bio of any really big electronic artists or labels and by really big I mean world-wide. Electronic music has just reached America and has now gone viral world-wide.

Follow my blog for general info on artists, record labels, and GOOD music.

f7u12

f7u12 is a subreddit and if you don't know what a subreddit it google it and you will find out that it is from reddit and if you don't know what reddit is then... stop going outside and get on your computer!! The internet is full of surprises and stuff. But every now and then I will post pictures maybe just blog about what the day had in store from me and use this time to just reflect on the day and hopefully end it with a nice rage comic or uplifting picture maybe a motivational picture one day. But for my first day of blogging on this site I shall end it with a rage comic that I found on reddit.
sometimes i like to post random rage comics/pics to make my blog seem more fun :) enjoy


This comic was kind of predictable but it was the comic i chose after reading rage comics for like thirty minutes haha. I do like to read rage comics every once in a while. Its just another something to do mindlessly on the computer. 



First

Time to blog about some of the best Electric Dance Music music out there anywhere. Take a second, chill, and listen.


Kyau & Albert - This Love [Original Mix]




This song is amazing. Released by the two German DJ/Producers. They've been in the trance game for a long time They are signed with the record label Euphonic. This record label has many more great trance/edm artists. Most notably including Above&Beyond and Armin van Buuren. Be sure to check out their amazing tracks!

 Some more info about these guys. This trance duo get their name from Ralph Kyau and Steven Moebius Albert which are their real names! I love their album Here we are Now, but other than that I haven't been keeping up with them but I came across this song on youtube from them and its been on repeat this whole week. I don't know who is doing the vocals on this song if anyone can let me know that would be great! Comment on what you think of the song!

I hope that Electronic Dance Music can become a liking of yours and one day you can enjoy it as much as and the rest of the world does!
