When they were over in London a couple weeks back, Ratking went off inside a green screen studio for a new episode of Just Jam, a live performance stream on the UK-based, music and culture web channel, Don’t Watch That TV. Watch the noisy NYC trio play songs from their just-released debut album, So It Goes, against a public access-style backdrop of galloping horses and guys in ski masks.
Dieses Konzert aus dem "Karussell für die Jugend" ist der früheste existierende Konzertmitschnitt der Düsseldorfer Elektronikpioniere. Die Gruppe hatte sich erst im gleichen Jahr gegründet und ist hier in ihrer ursprünglichen Besetzung zu sehen: Ralf Hüttner (Keyboards), Florian Schneider-Esleben (Flute, Vibes) und Klaus Dinger (Drums).
"Also Security ham wer keine, brauch ma a net. Hier war no nie Stress. Außadem ham wa noch zwai Männer hia, die sin zwar grad Bier holn, aba die kommn glai wieda." Man kann sich gar nicht vorstellen, wie beruhigt wir waren. Mann waren wir beruhigt. Und als uns Mike kurz vor dem Auftritt auch noch erklärte, daß seine Kumpels angekündigt hätten, Savas zu verprügeln, falls er LMS spielen würde, da stieg der Chill-Faktor ins unermessliche. Auf der Bühne dann war hardcore. Durch das völlige Fehlen irgendeiner ordnenden Hand stand ungefähr ein Viertel des Publikums auf der Bühne. Nach 3 Tracks hatten Savas und Jack noch ungefähr einen Quadratmeter Platz, in dem sie sich bewegen konnten. Im Publikum drängten sich ebenfalls die Menschen. Die Veranstalter hatten wohl irgendwann beschlossen, die Kasse zuzumachen, dafür aber die Türen auf. Das heißt, wer später kam, war umsonst drin und da waren einige, die drin waren. Später dann mußte ich nochmal raus zum Auto. Die Stresser waren weg, dafür standen dort jetzt 2 Mädchen, die wohl irgendwie zum Jugendhaus gehörten. "Wir passen auf euer Auto auf. Die wollten das nämlich knacken und die Anlage rausholen. Wir haben das mitgekriegt und deshalb stehn wir jetzt hier." Ich mußte lachen. Was für eine verrückte Stadt. Unser 50 Mark Autoradio klauen. Schweinfurt ich liebe Dich.
Recently, Tyler sat down at a sold event in New York’s Highline Ballroom to speak to Elliot Wilson, for the CRWN live interview series. The interview – which lasted over an hour – took place on April 23rd and was not your typical Tyler interview. Instead of the usual joke answers we have come to expect from Odd Future interviews, Tyler instead gave fans an insight into his life and creative process, among other things.

Kano first became known in the UK grime scene for his work with his original group, N.A.S.T.Y. Crew. From this springboard he was signed as a solo artist and began work on his debut solo album Home Sweet Home.

A rare chance to view one of the most important bands in American Hardcore history in their prime at CBGB circa '82.

The 50 Cent-Fat Joe beef heated up at the MTV Video Music Awards. The words started when Fat Joe was presenting an award and ended with: "I just wanna say how safe I feel in here tonight with all of this police presence courtesy of G-Unit." Later in the night, 50 Cent was ending his set of “So Seductive” with Tony Yayo when the pair unleashed a bevy of expletives on Fat Joe. The high standards of MTV prevented most of the content from getting through and it was censored. What made it through was something like this: “Fat Joe is a pussy. Fuck Fat Joe. He is a Fuckboy. What? What?” A couple sentences were completely blanked out.
