"What The F**K"?

2005-11-30T03:31:00.000-08:00

Now be forewarned, I am going to let some frustrations out, and I am not going to censor what I say......Last night while enjoying a few cartoons, cozy on the couch, eyes getting heavy, the satellite went out. This is rare, and it is, those cable commercials are bullshit liars, that are overcharging the majority, because they want to, and prices for cable service will just keep getting higher and higher, and if your are a cable subscriber, why not make the switch, you will be much happier. Holy shit, I sound like I am selling the shit to you. But this isn't the story......This is....I was enjoying my cartoons, when all of a sudden the service lost it's signal. What happened and why in the middle of my favorite, "Family Guy". Some low-life, dickless bitch had tried to make off with my dish. After he, I assume so much, figured that it and the cinder-block it was attached to was to heavy, he, I assume, left it, turned in the wrong direction....Why couldn't this brainless cocksucker re-position it back so I could finish my programming. What really fucking chaps my ass, is wondering what the fuck do you do with just the dish and not the receivers? The Smartcard that goes with them, that are programmed with the LNB signal... And why would someone fucking lowlife, bottomfeeder steal from someone else, why? It's really sad when I have to go, this morning to a security store and purchase a camera-security system just so that I am able to catch these buttfucks in the act....And get this, we have the great "APD" working security here at the complex, but where the fuck were they? In the office circle-jerking and slappin' each others assess....(Note: If you circle jerk or slap ass that's fine, but do you do it while your at work? That's when there is a problem. Oh, and APD stands for Austin Police Department, fuck all!!!!) Why do I have to use my money on something I should never need, due to the fact that someone is not doing their job, like Protect and Serve... I already pay my taxes and I am now getting taxed more so we can employ brain-dead-cock-mongers to Protect and Serve....Yeah, I think N.W.A. did have it right, "FUCK THE POLICE". And if you are a public servant and are reading this and are offended, just ask yourself these questions...Do I feel comfortable with my performance at the end of the day? Did I make a difference? Did I work for the money I earn? Well if you answered yes to those questions, then this does not pertain to you. But if you answered no to those questions, any of them, then you better get the fuck right with us persons that pay hard earned tax dollars to put your shit-brained child in to college....Do your motherfucking jobs.....

"94 Dollars"

2005-11-30T03:28:00.000-08:00

I went to one of the best video stores here in Austin, just to take a gander at the movies I have yet to see, and asked the clerk, "Hey, you got anything like "Ichi The Killer"? "But of course, sir",replied the clerk.
He recommended "Oldboy".* So I rented it, but not before going over why I had a $94 late fee for "Street Trash" (cinematik genius).**
So we went over it and over it and came up with the solution, since the late fee was from 1998, he would just charge $20 for the late fee and for the rental, you rock dude! I made it home, and started to view the movie. What a great movie. Not in the same vein as "Ichi", but just as good.
Thank Mr. Video Rental Store Clerk, thank you.

"The End of the World"

2005-11-30T03:25:00.000-08:00

November. 80 degrees.
I remember having this dream when I was younger, 8 or so, and in November it seemed cooler, much more brisk than now.

"Just A Moment"

2005-11-30T03:21:00.000-08:00

This is my backyard.This is where all the "street crab's"* run from the cops and get away everytime.Enjoi.*Street level drug dealers, that just sell drugs to provide themselves with drugs, they make no profit at the end of the day. They also bother youand I, the "Johnny Citizen" each and everytime, "Hey man, you got a cigarette"? It's no big deal to donate a cigarette, hell why not three or four, I have no problem with that, but I do have a problem with sitting on my porch, enjoying my coffee and the cigarettes I purchased, and some "clucker" comes up to me and asks. Oh, this is even better, how about sitting on your back porch and they come back there and ask you. Oh, no this one is even better. Coming to your door and ringing the doorbell, and asking for one (a cigarette).

No respect.

"Lucien, The Sidekick"

This is Mushuto's dog, Lucien. She's 8 years of age, and is fat. She likes to listen to gabber and hardcore, her favorite band is "Burn The Priest." She also enjoys eating everyone else's food other than her own. She just had these pix processed today by Mushuto, photographed in North Austin. She was already stressed from the vet visit, nail clipping, which they should of just cut her legs off, I think thats what the doc was trying to do, oh, all the blood, bleeding on the white tiled floor.....Blood....Then she was ordered back to have her "Heartworm" test, and so of course being vet's they can never seem to find the vein, and just puncture the flesh, over and over and over again....Oh, the pain....So we hope you enjoy the pix. We do.Until next time.

"Ambien, Take Me Away"

2005-11-30T03:06:00.000-08:00

4 days with hardly any sleep, and then, ah, much deserved slumber. Thank you Ambien. To be honest, I hate sleeping aids, or anything that makes me drowsy, but, there are some exceptions.Refreshed, I went over all the new samples that I purchased in the last 4 days, and completed 2 new tracks, that I just submitted to San Jaya Prime, my partner in crime, just waiting on the word. Still waiting for the other samples to come in via FEDEX, and then also others via post.Had a problem the other night, when I purchased samples from "Peacelove Productions", a direct download purchase through "Tradebit". I kept getting a message stating that the downloads were corrupt or invalid. So after a couple attempts, I decided to contact both companies, and got a quick response, in less than 30 minutes on a Friday night I think it was.I've purchased samples from Peacelove before and have been extremely pleased with my purchase, not only with the content on the disc, but for the promptness of delivery via post.I will be honest, I wanted the beats that night, to work the weekend out, but you cant have everything....The solution....Peacelove Productions is sending the samples in the mail with no fees for postage, and apologized for the inconvenience....Great service. I mentioned that I would be more than happy to pay the postage, but they weren't having it....So mad, mad, mad props to Peacelove Productions....
With regards,Mushuto

"The Therapist and The Captian Crunch Scenerio"

2005-11-30T03:03:00.000-08:00

Here lately I've been consuming mass quantities of coffee to the extent that my doctor told me that such amounts would kill a baby elephant. And I asked him how he would know that an amount like that would kill a baby elephant (my P.E.T.A. alter-ego emerged)? Just kidding....But, I have been consuming large amounts of this stimulant, but it has brought forth such a productive quality to my personality and way of living. My house is spotless, to the point Martha Stewart would be proud, and I am able to complete each and every task that is set before me. The scenario.........I awoke at 5 A.M., give or take 10-15 minutes, started a pot (6 cups to be exact) of "Folgers Gourmet Blend", and started up the laptop. The aroma caused an uncontrollable jitter, but a great jitter, cuz I was burning unwanted calories and body fat, with no effort on my part. The sound of my laptop's bleeps and clicks just heightened the convulsions, kinda' like a "Tickle Me Elmo" effect. I set up my "Panasonic MP3/CD" walkman, plugging into Sade's "Lovers Rock",what an excellent album. On top of consuming mass quantities of coffee, I also, just in the morning inhale as much carbon monoxide possible in the shortest amount of time imaginable.The coffee is now complete. The CD is loaded. The cigarettes are a go. I place myself outside (smoking is a nasty habit and even more so if you smoke indoors, and my brain refuses to grant me the ability to quit, this is just a personal opinion), click play on the CD play, light the cigarette, and take my first sip. The shakes subsided. Euphoria. Kinda' like that euphoric feeling you get right before you sneeze. With the beverage consumed, the cigarette's cancerous poison thinning my blood and collapsing my lung tissue, way before one song had the time to complete, I was in the living area of my humble home, clicking on the television to watch the same news that we all have been watching for the past four years or so, the "WAR ON TERROR", on none other than, oh, I should be careful, I have no written permission to post their companies name. Started work on a new track, which I posted information earlier this morning (see also "Pulse"). Feeling great, like that fresh towel that was just washed with "Tide with Febreeze" and hung out to bask in the morning sun. And then, the bad news came forth and my decline ensued."Jessica Simpson saw a therapist over rumors of infidelity and the imminent split of her (Jessica Simpson) and Nick Lachey"....Poor thing. You will be in my prayers. Both of you. Sadness truly does prevail (great "Today Is The Day" album, "Sadness Will Prevail"). One question. Well a few questions. Is this news? Is there any importance knowing this tidbit? Did this help in anyway to get us, the "slaves" of capitalism, to commute to and perform our duties at the "sweatshop" that we report to to day by day by day? It didn't help here, it depressed me. Why is this news? Why? Why? I feel there are much more important situations that are going on in the world than to produce such drivel. So, the anticipation is setting in as to what I did to turn that frown upside down. I ate "Captain Crunch", and replaced Sade with Dom and Roland's masterpiece "Back For The Future". If you know who Dom and Roland are, I recommend this release. Click on the link below for further information.
The End

"The Corpse and The Veggie Burger Surprise"....

2005-11-30T03:02:00.000-08:00

The other night, my girlfriend and I went to only the best movie theater in the U.S. (The Alamo Drafthouse, Austin, Texas) and took a gander at "Tim Burton's The Corpse Bride". In all honesty, as we were commuting, I was having second thoughts about going to this film, simply because of the fear of paying eight or so dollars, for a movie that might be the next worst film ever made known to man. But, to my surprise, it wasn't, to me, and in my own opinion, a great film. The animation, the musical content, and plot. I do have one main gripe, the film seemed to end abruptly. But in any case, it feels good to expect one thing and to get another, positively speaking.When I was employed at The G***** Poll, there was one thing that irritated me more than anything, the "Water-Cooler Top Ten Films." The office would send out a memo asking for all employees that were interested, to list their top ten films of that year. The conversations that were brought forth over a cup of green tea and clove cigarettes, the examination of production values, direction, score, and on and on and on... These were people that their favorite actors were Pamela Anderson and Patrick Swayze, and there's nothing wrong with that, I think, but why? Are we really that bored? Is there not a quota that must be reached in order to get that promotion, or that paycheck for any matter? And the answer is, yes, I am that bored, and so I give to you my "Top Ten Films"....(In no particular order.....)Crash (2005) Dir. Paul HaggisThe Shining (1980) Dir. Stanley KubrickA Clockwork Orange (1971) Dir. Stanley KubrickSick: The Life & Death of Bob Flanagan, Supermasochist (1997) Dir. Kirby DickThe Shashank Redemption (1994) Dir. Frant DarabontAmerican Beauty (1999) Dir. Sam MendesJackie Brown (1997) Dir. Quentin TarantinoOffice Space (1999) Dir. Mike JudgeBetter Living Through Circuitry (2000) Dir. Jon ReissThe Lion King (1994) Dir. Rogers Allers and Rob MinkoffI hope you have enjoyed this drivel and of course, there is more to come.Until next time.(Note: In the above titled "The Corpse and The Veggie Burger Surprise", I can just imagine that most that read this entry were asking themselves ,"Well, where does the Veggie Burger surprise fit in"?Right here. My consumption consisted of the following: Chips and Queso with Jalapenos on the side, an Ice Tea with cancer (Sweet-n-Low),The Best Damn Veggie Burger, potato wedges with a kosher dill pickle on the side. For dessert, a "La Dolce Vita", which is chocolate ice cream topped with two shots of espresso, ummm.....)

"2 Years Later"...

2005-11-30T03:01:00.000-08:00

Being a fan of The Dillinger Escape Plan since day one (thanks to "Lord Nipples" for the introduction), and various other bands, I being one of many infected with the "IKEA" mentality (the percentage of those affected by this disease is on the rise as you read this) I feel the need to purchase any and everything that might cause my brain to salivate. This stimulation has in the past caused a "Equifax Collapse" something so devastating that most never recover and wither away to cardboard and discarded "7-11" Brand cuisine for nutrition*. I was one of the many that would purchase every CD, DVD, Cassette Tape, VHS, and Laserdisc produced, even if I didn't have any idea what it was, and believe me I was disappointed, a lot, around 89% of the time. So, after a few years of this, I had what most near-death survivors would call a "moment of clarity", and vowed to never be trapped into the purchasing something that caressed and molested my brain for 2 minutes and then like "crack" left me to resume treasure hunting for the remaining 4 pennies in the cushions of my "Ethan Allen" brand pleather couch to purchase whatever else that once again caused my brain to salivate (I curse the "tiny person" that is navigating this V-Chipped implanted cerebral cortex. See also "Pinky and The Brain.")Oh my Lord, (is it P.C. to say such?) am I rambling from a "Tide with Febreeze" brand soapbox? Well anywoo, I have become dismayed, if you will, with the "record industry" and with what it releases on various formats... No substance. The same sound. The matching band outfits, lip-syncing songs about something that they have yet to grasp (i.e. teenage pop-sensations that sing about "windy walks on the beach with the love of their lives, infidelity, love-lost, various sexual endeavors with multiple partners, and whatever else that might come to mind that was written by a person that is actually the one going through their mid-life crisis for the sixth time). Is there not any honesty in the "commercial" world.... I'm rambling again, damnit!My first pre-recorded CD purchase in more than 2 years, The Dillinger Escape Plan’s release "Miss Machine", and I must say it is a "breath of fresh air". The lyrical content, in my own opinion are stellar, and the production is "top-notch"....But, in all honesty, I would not of purchased this release if it only came with a CD for $20, which is what most stores in my area have been saleing it for. But, thanks to record labels that are still "independent" want to give more for less (i.e. "Relapse Records", "Century Media", "Ferret", and "Trustkill", just to name a few that popped into my head). When I go into my local "independent" video/CD store, promotional items from the following labels seem to always be there for the taking. Yes Dad, the best things in life are "free". So, when I bought "Dillinger", not only was it "cheap" (under $12), but the CD was accompanied with a DVD with live material and a making-of featurette. As I walked through the store, before concluding my visit, I noticed that most of the labels I mentioned in the above, were in fact giving more to the consumer for less...."I'll buy that for a dollar"**. But, no surprise "major" labels that release the same CD in 78 various inlay designs, considered "Collectors Editions", are priced so astronomically, that those funds are an equivalent to a down payment on a new "Lexus". And they (record exec's) are scratching their heads why are we (consumers) residing in the annals of the P2P subculture.... Why not, you (the major label industry) are strong-arming us.Yes, I understand that artists need to eat to, I am one myself, but when is it time to get the courage to say, "F**k this s**t, I'm as mad as hell, and I'm not going to take this anymore"?***Can't we meet halfway? Is there not any sort of, oh God (“He” is probably going to send me a bill for using his name without the proper licensing) I just had a brain fart and I forgot what I was going to jot down.The short of it, I bought the Dillinger release "Miss Machine" on Relapse Records, and was highly pleased with that said release, and now must revert to consuming mass-quantities of "Starbucks" Brand coffee, that was probably grown in someone’s backyard in New Mexico and sold for, oh, there I go again, rambling......With regards,A Consumer*(For those that have not been "homeless", and I don't mean you slept on someone’s couch, I mean slept outside at the park, or on a public transit park bench, most "7-11" stores make a "deli" delivery around midnight (CT) and what is remaining from the day prior is donated to whatever homeless person is standing around with their hands held out, it kinda' resembles a "stock-market-circle-jerk" minus the onion & urine fragrance)** (quote taken from the 1987 MGM/United Artist Release “Robocop”)*** (partial quote taken from the 1976 Warner Brothers Release "Network")Note : This was written at 4:32 A.M. (CT) while consuming 8 cups of “Starbucks” brand coffee and smoking 3 ½ packs of Marlboro brand cigarettes (hence the rambling effect), so please refrain from contacting via email with “derogatory” remarks, it’s just a waste of time, due to the simple fact that I am preset in my ways and care not what most think about what I say and do.
Enjoy.

"Madonna"....

2005-11-30T02:59:00.000-08:00

Ashamed and distraught.....I feel as though I have turned my back on myself by posting this admission...But, the new Madonna track "Hung Up" is so addictive...There I said it. So far I've listened to the track about three times, and as I post this I am still in the process of listening to the track, praying that if I listen enough I will finally find something to say "negative" about it, but have yet to come to that conclusion....Proper respect to DJ-supreme ( Les Rythmes Digitales, Jaques Le Cont) on the production of this track, and last but not least, Madonna.Now I am going to go take a shower and wash away the embarrassment....

"Maltodextrin Overdose...."

2005-11-30T02:56:00.000-08:00

First and foremost, let me introduce myself...My name is ***** aka Mushuto. I currently reside in Austin, Texas, and have done so for the past 8 years...I enjoy windy walks on Town Lake, watching APD chase "cluckers" through my backyard, producing electronic music, and watching Japanese splatter films without subtitles (due to the fact that most dialogue in such films is meaningless, kinda' like a Woody Allen film). All that aside, I am starting this "blog" to cure the boredom that plagues me day to day, and also to somewhat plug my production work and whatever else that might come about. As I said prior, I produce "electronic” music, spanning various genres, from drum and bass to trance, glitch/IDM, gabber, and trip-hop....I stated 8 years ago, mainly performing and producing "big-beat" tracks, which I had some success with two tracks that I released over in Germany, "With Regards, Leland", and "Freezerburn", both of which were picked up by Raw 42 Music UK for TV/Film licensing. From that point on I started producing under the name "Epileptik Cerebral Reaktor", concentrating on "industrial/ambient/gabber".... The majority of tracks that I produced under Epileptik Cerebral Reaktor were never released or even previewed by anyone for that matter, and not due to "embarrassment" but due to other situations that caused life to go into left-field.... While in left-field, production came to a halt, and had to mainly focus on real-life (career, health, relationships, criminal endeavors, drug experimentation, rehab, blah,blah,blah....) A 3 year hiatus ensued, not much memory of that time period, and then experienced what most near-death survivors would call a "moment of clarity".... Back to earth, somewhat..... 2004. I resumed producing tracks under Mushuto, and have since released 10 tracks through Karma Download, a digital music downloading service, based out of the UK.... July of 2004 I was nominated and won "Artist of the Month" and was described as "a D&B wiz from stateside" from the staff of Karma Download.... Future. I am in the process of completing my first release, and starting a label, based solely from Austin, Texas.... Only time will tell what will happen, but for the most part it's all about keepin' positive.... As I close, I would like to give proper respect to the following persons, in no particular order.... Gina Hernandez, for standing by me, caring for me and showing me that there is love, understanding and trust....
