Eye Candy

Nice breezy summer jam from Azure'. Bet it was cold as shit on that beach, but he is reppin the Bay no matter the temperature. I feel like I know his friends. They kind of look like they would be on campus at SFSU.


Holy shit this is fucking amazing. Sort of what the internet was made for. This had me rolling, god I love internet forums.


Okay maybe I spoke to soon, this is what the internet was made for. It's like the internet's greatest hits set to music...not very good music, but that's ok I still watched.


Jonny Quest Opening Titles from Roger D. Evans on Vimeo.
This is a pretty sweet stop motion short that re-creates the opening to, "Johnny Quest." About the short from the creator Roger Evans.

In 1964, Jonny Quest aired to rave reviews as the first, adult action/adventure cartoon in prime time. It had cool jazz music by Hoyt Curtin and terrific, high contrast pen and ink design work by Doug Wildey. As an animator and long time JQ junkie, I had always wanted a set of Jonny Quest action figures but, due to high production costs, the show only lasted one season; not long enough to spawn any kind of serious toys or other merchandising tie-ins. So, almost 50 years later, I made my own. Here is my Valentine to one of the coolest, if not THE coolest, cartoons ever to spin up the imagination of a 53-year-old man now going on six. Enjoy!

Was it really only on for one season?  Did they have a re-done version for when we were kids?  I distinctly remember watching this when I was little.  Although I couldn't say whether or not I watched more than one season, I blame it on my Seasame street attention span.  How cool is that intro music though?  Check out Roger's site here.


Danny & Annie from StoryCorps on Vimeo.

This is not really music related but what a great little video.  Danny was the fucking man.  He makes me want to find a wise old man and just shoot the shit with him all day.  It's like everything he said was a golden nugget of advice, I want to just transcribe everything he said and study it for later.  Truly inspiring stuff.  R.I.P. to an awesome guy and I hope you are doing well Annie, you guys are amazing.
