I’m going out today to drive around my island and hopefully take some photos. I therefore leave you with this:
Space Shower TV is a music channel available on Japan’s SkyPerfect TV satellite service. I haven’t seen this clip there myself (since the death of MTV I abhor all music stations) so I don’t know the background of it, but this a signature Kentaro set and probably his most recognizable one.
Observe the power of properly applied white tape!

Birdy Nam Nam
The name of the track is Absesses. It’s really laid back, but it got stuck in my head for a long time, in a good way. The name of the group is Birdy Nam Nam, which is just the weirdest name I’ve ever heard. I kinda like it. I know Nam likes it. Anyhow.
Found this gem over at aurgasm. There’s a short bio as well as a downloadable mp3 by the group there; go check it out.
Lead Belly
I was doing some research on Lead Belly for a blues project I’ve been kicking around in my head, when it occurred to me that he lived until 1949 and there might be video footage… YouTube to the rescue. (The video is actually pretty lame unless you are interested in Lead Belly. This video, however, is pretty entertaining and completely unrelated to the subject of this post.)
Kentaro redux
Somebody upped a better version of the DJ Kentaro/Shinichi Kinoshita clip from NHK’s LiveJam last year. This is basically his best stuff so far, besides the Solid Steel compilation, so it’s worth posting again.
I got so hooked on the Solid Steel CD, it was loaded in my car stereo for five months straight.

Warning: DATBNSFW (definitely applicable to, but not safe for work)
c’mon, laugh! you know it’s funny!
IMPORTANT UPDATE: This is a Canadian band called Sons of Butcher. Just thought I’d let you know, in case you wanted to buy the album or something.
Six Drummers
(video is close to ten minutes long, let it load for a while before playing)
I talked to T on the phone today. He said he’s going to a factory for part time work during his spare time these days, and that he’s going to record the sounds of the machines with which to make a song. This video can be kind of an inspiration, I guess.
Side note: The horizontal volume slider on the TV really brought back some memories.
Jedi Breakfast
Heh.
