I remix myself on stage and it feels good

About Me

Aw jeez, who the hell does this kid think he is? Some kind of "improvisational musicborg" apparently. Guitar, trumpet, beatbox, vocals, live laptop remixes, you know, the usual shit. Depending on who you talk to, he either tears up or butchers all of the above. In any event he seems to hurl himself at all these ambitions with the aplomb one would expect from an acolyte of Ayn Rand.
Objectivism is the main intellectual ingredient in this unholy stew of hip-hop, electro, brazilian, dub and some seriously dirty funk. Stir this up with lines like this:
ladies if you think you wanna rock with me
you better come with some viable philosophy
much love to the dagnys and the dominiques
who ain't afraid to get in touch with their inner freaks

and you can count on your neighbors knocking on your door to inquire about that weird smell.
exaltron and mig one beat up on the exaltron single 5x5 at 169 bar in NYC.

exaltron + mig 1 putting a hurt on the single 5x5 at 169 bar in NYC. Numerologists will tell you those numbers add up to some apocolyptic nastiness, and for once they may have a point.. Stay...

Video: exaltron performs at Warper party in Williamsburg, Brooklyn

I know I still look like an MC what with my new animation from an old superfly photo shoot. I'm still doing that 5x5 stuff on stage too, but I've been moving on to a lot more melodic stuff, what do th...

knowing that nothing more could be desired, ever.

The next span of moments was like flashes of light in stretches of blinded unconsciousness- the moment when when she saw his face, as he stopped beside her, when she saw the unastonished calm, the lea...

WMC Miami wrap-up

Ok, so I just spent my vacation and a ridiculous amount of cash on adventures and misadventures at WMC in Miami. It's kind of funny: since I read about WMC in 2003, I've fantasized about attending, ho...

But I thought Islamic radicals were the only ones who love killing infidels

Saw an ad today on this charming video game that glorifies a murderous post-apocalyptic crusade against infidels. No, not the infidels who don't follow the teachings of Mohammed, the dirty bastards wh...

the return of the exaltron podcast

fans of exaltron and those yet to be assimilated- I've been conferring with some imaginary market research firms I hired and their data indicates that literally handfuls of people were at one point tu...

The Absurdity of Censorship

I've been LOLzing at one segment of Jimmy Kimmel's talk show, "This Week in Unnecessary Censorship" for a while now, without realizing that it was meant to be, and quite succeeds at making a political...

zero-sum game redux

I was just perusing the archive of the Capitalism group on  MySpace and  caught this happy little exchange between myself and this mush-brained quasi-socialist gadfly that frequents it. It s...
