And now for something completely bitchin'

Here are some Cossacks (they dance like Cossacks, at least) in the first All-Russian Red Army Dance-off in an attempt to determine the multiracial future of Western Capitalist youth culture through a historical-materialist extrapolation taking into account the dialectical interaction between class composition, increasing levels of cultural and economic imperialism and rates of institutionalised discrimination of minorities.

Look at 'em go... like small, fleshy windmills on X. Love it. Of course, I wish they would dance collectively and not so competitively. Then again, we wouldn't have had a dance-off.

Found at English Russia by a friend of mine who coerced me into posting it here. Everybody say, "Thank you Jan!"

Gym Class Heroes - As Cruel as Schoolchildren

Genre(s) - Hip hop/indie rock
Origin - United States of America
Year of release - 2006
Bitrate - 128 kbps
Size - 41.88 MB

So Gym Class Heroes are essentially a hiphop group, yeah, but with some footnotes. For one, they use live instrumentation - No DJ, an actual band. Bass, guitar, acoustic drums, the lot - something to be admired in a scene controlled by turntables and drum computers. And with such an approach, bright melodicism and fresh sounds run about in this remarkable musical hodgepodge. The presence of an emo/indie-ish drummer also involved in the songwriting is most noticable in some segments of Shoot Down the Stars, with its strong positive message, and the beautiful sung refrain of 7 Weeks. You're probably aware by now this is totally incomparable to the dark and ultra-serious modus operandi of most political hiphop or gangsta rap. With the album structured like a day at high school, one question rises in my mind: do you really have such long school days in the USA?

My upload does not contain the hit single and partial Supertramp-cover Cupid's Chokehold that was included on the rerelease, but I uploaded it separately. Get it here.

Hip Hip Hosannah for Baby Jesus

Band/artist - Various
Genre(s) - Pop, dance, metal, misc
Origin - Everywhere
Album - My horrid Christmas special
Year of release - Never, duh

I'm glad I never posted any actual Christmas music on here, but I do want to give you something for season greetings. So I gathered all the most embarrassing songs that were on my computer and randomly distributed them over four "disks" or volumes. The idea behind it is that you download all four volumes and try out all the songs, then decide which ones you want to keep, but you know, whatever. The files are around 40MB each and I believe Mediafire will allow you to download the four files simultaneously. The amount of total crap on my computer is absolutely ridiculous so be welcome to share in all its reeking, festering purity. 100% Guaranteed to make you feel dirty all over.

Ik zette een setje slappe slippers in de kast

Band/artist - Various
Genre(s) - Various
Origin - The Netherlands, Belgium
Album - My compilation for youuuuu!
Year of release - Never, duh

I made a compilation of some of the funniest, prettiest, best and whackiest Dutch songs on my computer - don't have so many, to be honest. The first half of track one is still in English, then it's into the unknown! (well unless you happen to speak the language). Since all tracks are so different I'll describe them individually.

1. The Amazing Stroopwafels - Oude Maasweg (bit meditative old rock)
   
2. Nou En - Gothic meisje (pop/rock song about a girl who only wears black)
   
3. THC - Je weet het (raw hiphop from Amsterdam)
   
4. Malle Pietje en de Bimbo's - Tienerhoer (100% literally translated Hole-cover)
   
5. Bert en Ernie - Zoek de zeep (Ernie from Sesame Street is looking for the soap)
   
6. Razorblade - Jeugdcultuur (hard oi! from Brabant)
   
7. De Huilende Rappers - Butje (catchy and nonsensical rap from Groningen)
   
8. Boudewijn de Groot - Prikkebeen (beautiful psychedelic folk track)
   
9. De Hardheid - 't vrouwtje (ska, about a neglected wife's bloody revenge)
   
10. Boudewijn de Groot - Welterusten mijnheer de president (Holland's official Vietnam-era protest song)
    
11. The Opposites - Sjonnie & Anita (dark hiphop track about the typical "low cultured" Dutch couple)
    
12. Drs. P - Dodenrit (all about Russian horsedrawn carriages, wolves and nursery rhymes)
    
13. Internationale Nieuwe Scene - Blijf niet gelaten op de wonderen wachten (Flemish revolutionary song from the 70s)
    
14. Countess - Heilig vuur (entirely anti-musical early Bathory-like black metal abortion; funny if it weren't so sad)
    
15. Fluisterwoud - Hoer van de zeven hemelen (actually quite decent raw BM)
    
16. De Internationale (Ontwaakt, verworpenen der aarde...!)
