Peach and Shag

Hi Shag!

2010-09-13T14:36:00.000+10:00

I'm doing a blog post, man!

How far we've come...

2010-08-17T17:00:00.005+10:00

In just a few short years...

I'm happier/fatter; you're hairier/tougher.

Most popular tattoo brand names!

2010-08-17T12:01:00.003+10:00

Cool lawyers prove they're cool by DOING A SURVEY ABOUT WHICH BRAND NAMES MAKE FOR THE MOST POPULAR TATTOOS.

The results are horrifying.

Vegemite? QANTAS?!

1. Harley Davidson
2. Nike
3. AFL (Australian Rules) club logos
4. Vegemite
5. VB
6. Disney characters (various)
7. Holden
8. Ford
9. Fox/Alpinestars (motorcross)
10. Triple J (radio)
11. Louis Vuitton
12. Chanel
13. Playboy
14. Coca-Cola
15. Jack Daniels
16. Jim Beam
17. Mountain Dew
18. QANTAS
19. Triumph (motorcycles)
20. Gibson/ Fender

Shag! This is the show we're doing!

2010-08-05T09:15:00.004+10:00

Big Bowls

Yeah, it's going to rule. It'll be a Bowlo Thursdays rap show in Petersham, Sydney. Remember it's a fundraiser for FBI 94.5, the premier community radio station in Sydney. There'll be Shag, Shantan Wantan Ichiban, 16Tacos/Jon Valenzuela/Tilted Page, Jozz Scott and Max Gosford from Claws and Fangs, and Peach playing songs from his Beef and Tripe Mixtape (with possibly a few new ones from his Off the Grid mixtape).

Is that how "googleability" works? Did I hit enough buzzwords?

Happy Thursday!

2010-07-15T21:33:00.003+10:00

Yep

2010-07-15T08:13:00.002+10:00

Re-posting stuff from other more popular blogs is not kosher I know, but this is fairly solid.

Taken from Stuff White People Like:

All music genres go through a very similar life cycle: birth, growth, mainstream acceptance, decline, and finally obscurity. With black music, however, the final stage is never reached because white people are work tirelessly to keep it alive. Apparently, once a music has lost its relevance with its intended audience, it becomes MORE relevant to white people.

Historically speaking, the music that white people have kept on life support for the longest period of time is Jazz. Thanks largely to public radio, bookstores, and coffee shops, Jazz has carved out a niche in white culture that is not yet ready to be replaced by Indie Rock. But the biggest role that Jazz plays in white culture is in the white fantasy of leisure. All white people believe that they prefer listening to jazz over watching television. This is not true.

Every few a months, a white person will put on some Jazz and pour themselves a glass of wine or scotch and tell themselves how nice it is. Then they will get bored and watch television or write emails to other white people about how nice it was to listen to Jazz at home. “Last night, I poured myself a glass of Shiraz and put Charlie Parker on the Bose. It was so relaxing, I wish I had a fireplace.” Listing this activity as one of your favorites is a sure fire way to make progress towards a romantic relationship with a white person.

Along with Jazz, white people have also taken quite a shine to The Blues, an art form that captured the pain of the black experience in America. Then, in the 1960s, a bunch of British bands started to play their own version of the music and white people have been loving it ever since. It makes sense considering that the British were the ones who created The Blues in the 17th Century.

Today, white people keep The Blues going strong by taking vacations to Memphis, forming awkward bands, making documentaries, and organizing folk festivals. Blue and Jazz music appeal mostly to older white people and select few young ones who probably wear fedoras. But that doesn’t mean that young white people aren’t working hard to preserve music that has lost relevance. No, there are literally thousands of white people who are giving their all to keep old school Hip Hop alive.

Even as you read this, white people are telling other white people about the golden age of Hip Hop that they experienced in a suburban high school or through a viewing of The Wackness.

If you are good at concealing laughter and contempt, you should ask a white person about “Real Hip Hop.” They will quickly tell you about how they don’t listen to “Commercial Hip Hop” (aka music that black people actually enjoy), and that they much prefer “Classic Hip Hop.”

“I don’t listen to that commercial stuff. I’m more into the Real Hip Hop, you know? KRS One, Del Tha Funkee Homosapien, De La Soul, Wu Tang, you know, The Old School.”

Calling this style of music ‘old school’ is considered an especially apt name since the majority of people who listen to it did so while attending old schools such as Dartmouth, Bard, and Williams College.

What it all comes down to is that white people are convinced that if they were alive when this music was relevant that they would have been into it. They would have been Alan Lomax or Rick Rubin. Now the best they can hope for is to impress an older black person with their knowledge.

Peach and Shag Go To the Movies

2010-07-01T14:21:00.002+10:00

Just to get us pumped to go to Predators, I thought we should reflect on another amazing movie.

Kazaam

Wikipedia highlights include:

"Max eventually finds his father, only to learn that he is a musical talent agent who specializes in pirated music."

"Max confesses to Kazaam that he and his father aren't really connecting, though Kazaam attempts to shirk the issue with some rapping."

"Kazaam transforms Mr. Melik into a basketball and then slam-dunks him into a garbage disposal."

and...

!!!

"Unfortunately, Kazaam discovers that Max is dead and becomes despondent. Feeling sad, he tranforms into a higher level and becomes "djinn", and is able to bring Max back, re-unite him with his family, and give Max's father a second chance at life. In addition, Kazaam also becomes human..."

Best Urthboy verse

2010-06-25T20:47:00.001+10:00

Maybe best Urthboy verse ever.

Could be the context though?

Not much time has passed

2010-06-25T20:36:00.002+10:00

So you know.

This is one of the most important songs in my life. And were actually at this show. I got the single with this acoustic version signed.

Life is amazing.

I've also done an edit (that confirms life - and friendship with you - is amazing)

Shag, I need your professional copywriting opinion

2010-06-23T12:43:00.002+10:00

Taken from Rapper AFS's Myspace

"Suspense crossed with mysterious experience that ignites creative spark, is just a minimal description. AFS - the new face of urban music continues to break boundaries.

"The controversy surrounding the artists compelling lyrics provides an ‘artistic explosion’. Passion, energy & complete dynamic driving a strong influence gives us a clear visual.

"But the music is nothing that of raps expected culture, AFS finely divides the passion of a diverse commercially based foundation around an exploring suspenseful dictation of the world around us. Throughout the years, AFS earned unanimous recognition & creditability amongst the underground rap scene even whilst in his early production stages.

"From his lucrative descriptions, to his catchy well defined choruses, to the lyrical complexity yet smooth characteristics displayed consistently this single Just Imagine is a clear representation of the artists technique in not only rap but his technique in constructing music for all people of all ages."

This is perfection. Surely.

We have good friends.

2010-06-22T21:42:00.002+10:00

Good friends who do things that make me proud we're friends with them.

Observe our Tilted Page friend, Jon Valenzuela:

Fucking magnets; how do they work?

2010-06-22T20:01:00.003+10:00

Shag, in a parrallel life, in a another world, in another time, maybe we would have been Juggalos. Can you imagine how bad our teenage skin would have been had it been covered in shoe polish every time we went to an all ages pop-punk show?

Imagine how pumped we would have been when we found out what the Black Carnival was. "It's God! And Christianity!"

After Shaggy (lol! Like your name!) wonders all about Fucking Magnets and How They Work, he has a line like, "and I don't want to find out from a scientist."

The real question is...

Do you believe in Miracles?

Will we always be...

Homies?

Somewhere in the history of our blog...

2010-06-21T10:46:00.003+10:00

Shag, I'm basically doing this post so there is somewhere to host these photos!

Who would do that?

You see it's Classic old OZZHURPHURPdotCOM Food Day today. What you have to do is post up a recipe of something you've cooked for everyone to go, "you cooked THAT?! YOU FAG/CUNT."

How to bludge/DRM

2010-04-22T20:22:00.002+10:00

OK, you know Digital Rights Management? You know how it used to mean "you can only burn a CD from this iTunes song five times" and now it means "I used to be a big, important media corporation but I don't think I am anymore"? Well, yeah. The handling of Gordon Ramsay's amazing Kitchen Nightmares is a case in point.

You get three fifths (3/5!) of an episode free on youtube, and then you have to go and buy the rest ("get them hooked, then they'll buy the DVD"). Some people are idiots.

Amazing show, though. Maybe we should make our blog about food? Are there even any blogs about food? Would ours be the first?

Which scares you more?

2010-04-21T16:41:00.004+10:00

I know you're a tough guy (totally) but I reckon there's a good chance that either of these things would have stopped 16 y.o. you from running away from School Assembly on the night of the Loretto Kiribilli Year 11 formal.

It's 2009 and you still...

2010-04-10T08:31:00.001+10:00

From 8:00 to 8:30 is a minor redemption of battle rap for me.

These are the guys I made you watch on my laptop in 2007 when we got drunk at the Royal and got psyched to enter the WRC in Melbourne. ("BUT THE BRITISH VERSION WAS BE'ER!")

Of all of our online popularity contests, I'm most confident about taking out our Facebook fan page popularity contest (that I am telling you about with this blog post). You caned me on Myspace (remember when I changed the rules to "if Peach gets 50% or more of your friends, he wins" and you still won?) though not with Hot Galoshes (44 friends?). You're in the process of taking out our Twitter clash convincingly. So I hold high, high hopes for FaceBook. 28 fans plays zero.

This time it's coming up Peach.

2010-04-06T16:47:00.002+10:00

Productive times at Jozz's yesterday. Among things I did: started a FACEBOOK FAN PAGE, which is really just another internet popularity contest thing to feel self conscious about. I'm still a little flipped out by the popularity contest you and I had on this very blog (that I couldn't (be bothered) find(ing)?)

I can't believe we're going to change the mixtape game (again).

I can't believe how shocked we'll be when we look back at this period in our lives and remember that Spit Syndicate were great. You know we'll be like, "do you remember liking that crew we no longer like? The ol' change, eh?" That may (not?) happen.

For the moment, they're perfect. Exile will rule.

G-g--g-g-g--get it, boy

2010-04-01T13:10:00.002+11:00

This tour is going to be insane. Apparently we'll be eating heaps of Subway. We should practice singing the end bit for when we are (inevitably) invited back on stage.

In other news, my industry is incredibly two-tiered. I'm like part of the High Borne or something in here. And there's a new place with nice coffee.

Can you believe it?

2010-04-01T09:57:00.002+11:00

We've been confirmed as the support slot for the Spit Syndicate tour!!! I sent off an email and you have to include an application form and stuff. I actually tried (hard) to "fit the bill" and we got it!

This is going to be so great. Do you know how much you and DJ Joyride are going to talk about R'n'B? Do you know how much we're going to end up being a (huge) part of the Double S show ("let's bring them back out, shall we?! It's PEACH and SHAG!"). We are going to call everything good "bossy" and do things "like a boss". When we say we're doing a thing, we're going to say we do things like that "all day". I can't believe that we're 1dayers (not "one-dayers" - n00b error) now. It's so exciting. Are you excited?!

TOURING!!!!

We're all going to be super best friends. Can you imagine the amazing stories you'll tell? Do you know how much Frozen Coke I'm going to drink? Holy shit.

It goes:

Nick Lupi

Jimmy Nice

DJ Joyride (who'll end the tour with an amusing injoke nickname)

s'Pakice and Fagmullan

Perfect.

I bet you're SUPER pumped about mixtape work on Easter Monday! I totally am. Today we had to have our photos taken for work and I actually did one of the those corporate website "here I am just reading this boo... what? Oh! It's you, with a camera, interrupting, I'd better smile at you before I GET BACK TO WORK. *Smile*" photos.

It was surprisingly fun. Almost as fun as - I think - having to manufacture a candid, work-related conversation in order to be photographed "mid-conference". Whatever, though. We have free Easter eggs here (no bullshit).

Sometimes I think of good things to cut up for the mixtape

2010-03-29T23:26:00.002+11:00

How much are you loving the first 8 bars of this. It'll be total Shimmy Shimmy Ya type shit. Glorious.

Can you believe we are going to change/save rap AGAIN? Fucking finally.

Car catastrophic. Needs $2,500.00 worth of repairs. Is prolly worth less than that anyway. Solution:

Goo, you like it when beats drop and sound good (right)?

2010-03-18T10:16:00.001+11:00

Listen from about 0:20. 0:30 is the moment. You can stop listening at about 0:45. So I want 25 seconds of your time. Cool?

It's Bliss from Bliss n Eso on the M-Phazes "Good Gracious" compilation.

Driving an unregistered car

2010-03-18T08:35:00.002+11:00

My car is unregistered and has been unregistered and uninsured for about the past four weeks (good?). Just getting the registration sorted out now (right on time?) and my boss is like, "driving an unregistered car? You lose your license for six months doing that, don't you?"

Off to the mechanic now. Hoping they won't be sell out narcs (selling out!) and dob me in to the PIGS (RTA).

My Job! So Topical!

For your information/lulz.

Now, my understanding of filming a video clip is that you use "playback" and record only vision. Then you edit together the (higher quality) audio that you recorded in s studio (place designed for recording sound properly).

Nah?

Check 3:46. Classic editing.

I share a birthday with Thora Birch (?)

This blog is a website of substantially higher quality than THORA.ORG though. Sheesh.

I wonder if I'll sit on a swing on my birthday? I wonder if I'll eat some amazing food? Al is taking me to TOMISLAV which I am deeply excited about.

!!! Good Blog Post Alert !!!

2009-10-08T10:22:00.004+11:00

Phew. Shit's been a drought.

This is from an actual movie.

HERE

Check this (*spoiler alert*) teaser of the plot synopsis: Off the coast of Alaska, oceanographer Emma MacNeil (Deborah Gibson) is studying the migration patterns of whales aboard an experimental submarine she took without permission from her employer. Meanwhile, a military helicopter drops experimental sonar transmitters into the water, causing a pod of whales to go out of control and start ramming a nearby glacier.

Edit...

And more spoiler: While working at a naval laboratory to develop a method for luring the creatures, MacNeil and Shimada become attracted to each other and have sex in a utility closet; the incident makes them realize they can attract the creatures using pheromone chemicals.

!!!

Another edit...

The film features veteran actor Lorenzo Lamas and singer/songwriter Deborah Gibson as part of its cast, and was originally titled Mega Shark Versus Giant Octopus 3D, but "3D" was stricken from the title when the studio failed to acquire adequate funding for 3-D film.

Enjoying an impressionist! The last one is the one. You can skip to about 1:30.

Why I will never, EVER be sad again:

2009-09-12T10:38:00.003+10:00

Just got a message from our best friend Pittsburgh Gregg (you know who...!):

"hey man i jammed the mixtape while doing some bills, i enjoyed it! who does the production? it's a pretty wild mix, all over in a great way"

NEVER UNHAPPY AGAIN. NEVAH.

So pumped.

Also: that 'Close to Me' remix for next mixtape? Fun times. The funnest.

It happened. Mixtape done.

2009-09-09T10:00:00.002+10:00

It's done!

Goo, we did it!

www.peachpeach.com.au for download. Yah!

Jokes! Who likes them? Us? Yeah!

2009-09-02T07:23:00.002+10:00

Mixtape!

I'm going to post this video even though it means that all who watch it may never maintain an erection again

2009-08-26T08:38:00.002+10:00

Found by OHH.com member Headlock.

...

Jesus. I still can't over Tha Horra. Are these the sort of jeans there'll be at the fashion show you're DJing?

It was always going to take something pretty special to get us both pumped about blogging again

2009-08-24T11:34:00.002+10:00

Here it is:

JeeeEEEEEeeepers!

...

Mixtape done. Getting to work on artwork and how you go about setting up a free D/L the best way. Exciting.

TOMORROW.

2009-08-19T21:21:00.000+10:00

Going to kill it.

So pumped.

What it's like when we're drunk...

2009-08-07T23:22:00.002+10:00

Remember?

Jesus. I am so half embarrassed, half entertained by re-watching this.

Jesus.

Drinking rules.

2009-08-07T07:55:00.003+10:00

Just at the moment, I can't seem to think of a single song that's better than this:

I know it was 2007 but - Jesus - it's amazing.

...

Had any nice sandwiches recently? Going to well reviewed pizzeria tonight.... (it'll prolly be great, being well reviewed by locals)

“I’d shit on a cloud for you (for you)”

2009-08-06T17:31:00.003+10:00

Have you listened to The Dream album, yet? I swear that’s one of the lyrics. Such a great album.
Anyway, working is hilarious. I made a pact with myself today, though. To hang on to moi. I e-spoke with Richie Valenzuela last night and he was like, “Peach, rap on, man. Don’t not rap.” Then he did me an amazing Titled Page portrait (so great. I’m super famous).

It got me pretty inspired. Between you telling me I should get in the studio and sort it out and feeling like I’m “selling out”* at work, it’s got me pumped to record. In that vein: send me instrumentals OR tracks you want cut up into instrumentals ASAP. I’ll send them to Flame and we’ll get started again!

…

* = it’s interesting, the “selling out” thing. Where once I was like “it means signing to a major label and ignoring all your old friends and not skanking properly”, I’ve realised that it’s just putting a price on your personality, on who you are. It’s easy to do (and succumbing to professional inertia is sorely tempting) but hard to undo.

That’s why I try to play touch football as much as possible.

That’s why I stay up til past midnight writing for Drum.

That’s why (with your help!) I’m heading back to the studio.

YES.

My personality (after doing lots of work)

2009-08-02T21:35:00.002+10:00

It really does make Jack (me) a dull boy. I have dreamt about work. I tried to do a rap or write a story or something and had nothing to give.

"So there I was, going to my work at the law office..."

So, Peach, what's it like having an iPhone, man!?!

2009-07-29T10:45:00.002+10:00

Today on OHH.com

2009-07-28T13:19:00.002+10:00

It's food day! One of the posters (a rapper named G Force) posted this video and included heaps of forum in jokes at the end.

I'm still flipping out.

Can you handle the scandal?

2009-07-28T09:07:00.002+10:00

Law, eh? IP law, eh? Scandalous.

This is the most exciting part of my day so far (there's lollies! In a case! It's not about leases or airports!).

Somehow I regressed to my previous phone

2009-07-27T10:28:00.001+10:00

I know that everyone in the world has one...

2009-07-26T17:35:00.001+10:00

Now I am a part of that 'everyon'.

Are you? You probable are. How great is it?

The definition of "hit and miss"

2009-07-22T12:18:00.001+10:00

THIS.

For half of it I’m like, “chips? Chips?! Too brilliant.”

The other half I’m like, “chips, eh?”

This reminds me of: Mr Show, Shaun Micallef Program 3rd series, and The Simpsons before it got good again.

"(laughs for a while)" is just perfect comedic writing. Tonally perfect.

So did you watch ‘Glee’?

2009-07-20T09:04:00.002+10:00

Al did.

They ended with ‘Don’t Stop Believing’ which has got a little played out.

But then, I found out what was happening IN THE CRICKET.

So appropriate! Imagine – imagine! – if you were at Lords (“the home of cricket”) sure to lose but, by believing in your dreams, winning!

Oh, jesus. I’m still flipping out. WHAT IF WE WIN.

Cricket late at night

2009-07-09T21:41:00.002+10:00

It's still just as perfect as I remember. There's drinking. There's snacks. I am a bit tired at work the next day, though.

(satisfied) yawn....

Attn: Shag

2009-07-03T20:57:00.002+10:00

If you thought I wouldn't get drunk by drinking the Sparkling Rose left over at my work drinks you're wrong.

This is freestyling now, apparently (LAME):

What more do you want from me?

2009-06-20T15:46:00.003+10:00

I don't know if I'm getting old/lame but this song is perfect.

EMBEDDING DISABLED THE DREAM YOU SLUTSUCKING SHITLICKING DADROOTING MOTHERFUCKER

The word 'bra' is censored (!). And 'shit' becomes 'thing'.

I know selling out rules and all but, Jesus, some things are just OK. Bra.. FFS!

Breaching other people's rights to privacy because they're in an amazing photo

2009-06-20T08:41:00.003+10:00

Yep.

With photos like this, how can anything bad ever happen?

It's all going to be OK, Googs.

Promise.

...

Even if I get totally, TOTALLY fired for incompetence/being jovial at work.

...

*EDIT*

Just got this sent as a message on myspace. Made my day.

"finally an australian rapper who doesn't sound like he's from the central coast

"peach, this is brilliant mate"

Last night we babysat a puppy

2009-06-18T08:49:00.000+10:00

It was – without doubt – the cutest thing ever. Bred to be a pig dog (mix of Great Dane, Bull Arab, Staffy and some other stuff), ‘Dog’ won our hearts with her insatiable curiosity and incurable narcolepsy.

She spent her twelve hour stay sleeping, smelling, and shitting (she also cried through the night which was kind of a bummer). It was pretty amazing. I’m a need a dog pretty soon.

Bull Arab:

How hilarious is it when it turns out something was awful all along (but you kind of knew, deep down)?

Entourage Season 6 In A Stupid, Boring, Lukewarm Nutshel

Vince goes to work on Martin Scorsese's new movie, but he has problems on the set in the heated conflict of Hollywood egos. Or maybe he sleeps with a beautiful woman and somehow that turns into something mildly dramatic that doesn't matter. Or both. Ari tells E that he better solve this issue with his "boy" if he really is going to keep calling himself a manager. Lloyd is gay. Ari calls Vince and squeezes a stressball. Vince is so laid back it's crazy. It's almost as if he doesn't even care about being famous. Ari bangs on his desk, he is so angry! Lloyd says something "super gay." And pouts. E has moved into a fancy new office, because it is six months later and we need to show that success never ends. Insert stilted, terrible celebrity cameo. Martin Scorsese thinks that this movie is going to take Vince's career to the next level. Johnny Drama asks if there is a part in it for him. Vince buys everyone something really expensive as a gift for being his friends. Turtle gets some "pussy" on the side. There is a pool party maybe? E gets teased for being too nice to women and not just shitting all over them. Ari's wife is mad at him! So he buys her something! Small condescending subplot about how they are Jewish. 50 Cent is on the show, and it is ridiculous, and awful. Does his cameo have something to do with Turtle's music management career? No one cares. For one week three episodes before the end of the season there is tension when it seems like maybe something will be taken away from Vince, or as if there are any stakes whatsoever in this show. Within 15 minutes of the finale that tension will dissipate, and everyone will go out for high fives and champagne. The season will end with Vince buying a private island on the moon because of how he has all the fame again. The show leaves viewers wondering whether or not Vince will ever get even more famous and happy.

Peach this rules pretty hard.

You've heard this, yeah?

2009-06-10T22:52:00.000+10:00

Amazing.

Akon is looking more and more like Old Man Flava Flav as time goes on

2009-06-09T20:56:00.002+10:00

This song still kills me.

Yes, I'm drunk. Yes, I'm alone. Yes, I'm tired and emotional. Still: great song.

YES, I'm drunk.

*edit: drumk, man. Durnk. SO durunk.

EMBEDDING DISABLED AKON YOU MOTHERFUCKER

You guys did plan an OK buck's night, but you missed one ingredient

2009-06-09T20:43:00.001+10:00

Imagine if I had "FagMullan" written on my arse. Idiots are the funniest. I love the (c) 2009 guy.

Classic.

So it turned out to be pretty bad

2009-06-01T22:27:00.001+10:00

That said, I think this might be my favourite ever Dr Dre beat...

No matter how bad it's going to be

2009-05-26T17:54:00.002+10:00

(decided not to D/L Relapse. Waiting for it to be sent to me next week)

He still knew how to be mean to people, hey. Do you remember this Benzino thing? The funniest.
