Tedinos

I ate at Tedinos at 5335 N Sheridan a couple weeks back and just had the chance to upload photos. It’s kinda hard to remember it since I’ve had a few other pizzas since, but the lasting impression was that it’s like Chicago’s Pizza so it’s good. I got to try both thin and deep dish and the thin held it’s own. No frills, but not bad either.

The Arm ft Slug of Atmosphere - Fear of Mundane

So my guy Krukid is blowing up with his crew The Arm and here’s another cut to prove it featuring arguably king of the indie rap Slug. Strong verses from all and a dope beat. Slug says “potpourri” snap!

Artifice Mag:

I played for this team’s magazine launch party courtesy of DJ Brett Randle and had a really amazing fun time dropping wax for ‘em. Having done a fair amount of spoken word and writing back in college, I’m looking forward to receiving their first issue and getting back in the word sauce. Writers, submit, readers peep!

Spinnerty - Weightless remix (Ft Nadia Alfadel)

I made the original Weightless cut about a year back with vocalist Nadia Alfadel and it got some great play and feedback around town. Reviving the vocals with a shrewd stuttered up version by Spinnerty. Enjoy!

Yes he’s back! Whenever I get stressed if a sample’s not chopping well, if the drums aren’t hitting or the synth isn’t sitting in the mix, Kwon Soon Keun reminds me that music is FUN.

Krukid - Snow Angel EP:

Krukid is consistently killing it. I’ve had the privilege of playing these tracks out for his Chicago sets and the response is stellar. Holler at this before he gets big and the future you can only wish the past you knew.

Apart Pizza

I got recommended Apart Pizza by renaissance man b-boy Danger, one half of Spatial Interventions. Delivery from 2205 W Montrose was prompt for our tricolore pizza and it was quite good. The neopolitan thin-crust was a little floppy in the middle but crispy at the edge, which I didn’t mind but noticed. Cheese and toppings were tasty, and hit the Italian flavoring on the head and I found myself really enjoying it with some hot sauce added. Overall I liked it, but funnily enough when I talked to Danger about it, he mentioned he didn’t like it the second time ‘round. Guess they have consistency probs, but I recommend peeping it if you’re walking by in the area looking for pizza.

Dope 2 CU:

One of the DJs I keep up with on a regular basis mentioned that sometimes he likes to just bump him and his homies’ shit, so I made a blog to do that. Champaign Urbana artists from the 2000s. One new track a day.

Dylan Noble

I went to highschool with Dylan in Switzerland and was always really amazed by his drawing/painting skills. Good to know he’s doing it up in Canada. This has been a favorite since I first saw it a couple years back.
