Kutiman mixes YouTube

Frits wrote on his soundtrack of my life:

Friends sent me a link to the site of a guy who calls himself Kutiman . He mixes sounds (and images) that he finds on YouTube into new compositions. This project is called ThruYou. Compared to what Kutiman does (here), any MashUp is child’s play. And the result is amazing! Please check all the compositions, because they are very different. I especially like Just a lady.

RYP is 2

Twilightzone! is zwei, heute. Happy Birthday.



Rockinest selections around, Present company excepted, my 13 co-contributors.

Plenty o' Tav Falco & Fleshtones, more than one could conceive existed, in fact.

It's a fave of mine, hence the respectful referral.

The ABA - Where Runners and Gunners Roamed

It's February. A sports fans dead zone. The NFL has crowned the Giants kings of the hill (thank God it wasn't those smug ass Patriots), baseball is months away and the college b-ball scene is plodding along until March Madness kicks off. What's a sports junkie to do?

Take the wayback machine and relive the wonderment and eccentricity that was the A.B.A - American Basketball Association. The ABA existed for nine glorious seasons and for a young Pistol Pete disciple in the 70's, it was everything that the dull and staid NBA wasn't - Cool uniforms, outlaw players and franchises, a red, white and blue rock and home to the most glorious Afro's ever.


Darnell Hillman - Winner of the coveted "Greatest Afro" award.


Michael Jackson of the Utah Stars and Virginia Squires - always a bridesmaid to Hillman but impressive nonetheless.


The Immortal Wendall Ladner
Known for his hustle and physical play. One of the great "enforcers" of the ABA--protected Dan Issel in Kentucky and Julius Erving in New York. Immensely popular wherever he played. His good looks prompted the Kentucky front office to market a Ladner "beefcake" poster (above) to the Colonels' female fans . Held the unofficial pro sports record for being traded the most times in mid-season. Tragically died in a June 1975 plane crash in New York.

Fashion? The ABA was a virtual kaleidescope of every hue and tone.
Check out Johnny Brisker and this get-up.


How about Ron Franz' bells and puffed-sleeve shirts. Pure class and comfort.
