” Fuck the google. Fuck the iPod. Fuck the emo. Fuck the new God. Fuck Celebrity. Fuck Cocaine. Fuck Am3rica. It fucks up your brian. “
With lyrics like these how can you not love this new song by Beaufort, aptly titled ‘Fuck The Google’. Here it is for your listening / dancing / fucking pleasure.

I’ll be spinnin’ some sexy synthy electro-pop beats all night tomorrow at Hanger Bar in the East Village. Hanger Bar coincidentally is the 2008 winner of The L Magazine’s Bar Award for BEST BAR TO HEAR A DJ SET!
Come get drunk and dance with us!
Hanger Bar - 217 East 3rd Street between Avenues B & C


I got to play with the new LG Vu yesterday and was surprisingly impressed. It’s no iPhone when it comes to it’s interface, browser, or media functions; but it does have Apple beat in a couple of interesting areas. 1. It’s 3G. Nuff said.
2. It has a haptic feedback display. This eliminates the biggest drawback of having a touchscreen; the lack of feedback to let you know you actually clicked on something. On the Vu when you touch an item on the screen, that part of the screen vibrates to let your finger know you clicked.
3. Mobile TV. I was really impressed with the mobile TV offering and it’s performance. It kicks both Verizon and Sprint’s TV ass easily. Full touchable, scrollable program guide. Real channels you actually want to watch. Channels loaded almost instantaneously and changing between channels was quick too. Very slick.
The downside is this baby costs $500.

Went and saw Crystal Castles last night at Mercury Lounge on the Lower East Side. HEALTH opened for them, and they were good, although the electro crowd didn’t care too much for the art-noise rock. Crystal Castles were amazing, 40 solid minutes of non-stop strobe lights, glitches, beeps, and screams. I recommend drinking a lot before you go see them though.
Here’s the stats from Engadget:
All of this for $500 US. Yes, it may be a little chunky and brickish, but it’s got 4 gigs of RAM and runs two operating systems at the same time, does mobile TV, GPS, and takes sharp pics. When its flipped over in ‘phone’ mode it looks retro-futuristicly awesome. More pics and info at AVING USA
Blackberries have always been mundane, utilitarian business devices with little to no appeal for young people. They’re more of a badge of adulthood; receiving one means your dreams of youth have been squashed and you’re locked into a cubicle calculating expense reports. RIM may be trying to change that image. Check out these concept pics of a possible Blackbery 9000 series device with a slideout keyboard, a-la Sidekick fame. There’s also a rumored optical touchscreen which RIM has supposedly been developing for a while. If they emblazoned these with plastic diamonds and anime stickers the kids might just eat these up.
