I'm going to:
Tear your fucking eyes out,
Rip your fucking flesh off,
Beat you till you're just a fucking lifeless carcass.
Fuck you and your progress,
Watch me fucking regress,
You were made to take the fall,
Now you're nothing.
Payback's a bitch CHERYL.

This, Five Deadly Venoms and Crippled Avengers have to be the trifecta of off-beat 70's kung-fu that used to run on Channel 5 KTLA all the time. Makes me miss the days of good ol' UHF/VHF TV.

LOL

parts of this are grate , but the performance is like a comedy sketch , the jazzy aspects of it seem really forced and artificial and in my opinion detract from the flow and feel of the tune completely.

I'm not against jazz in general and enjoy lots of off beat and more experimental aspects of the genre just seems in this case when they go off on a more abstract jazz tangent its totally superfluous and feels out of context.

The bassist expressions and movements also look completely forced granted they are really skilled musicians and I'm sure if I played at this level I would make stupid faces but I'm reasonably certain That it would not be to this existent , after all the drummer and the pianist seem to be coping just fine ( pianist has his moments )

Well just looking at the comments here I can see it would be confusing.

Although @shuac has defined it as an off-beat visual media channel we already have to discuss what fits. Quirky is extremely broad and visual media is everything on VS. I'm already confused by the channels (what the fuck is *willhelm any way?).

I say let shuac have his channel and @ant can arbitrarily put things in it--or take them out--depending on his mood that day.

You seem to have a hard time discerning the difference between your subjective opinion and objective reality. In other words, you seem to think that your subjective opinion IS objective reality. It is not.
You think this doesn't sound good. Great, you're welcome to your opinion. Stop watching and commenting on scratching vids. Loads of people like this sort of stuff, and think it sounds great.


Not at all , I'm saying that Evan The Dj probably thinks it still dosnot sound that grate (or if he dose he is letting the technical achievement blind him to the audible achievement) , its a good sound clarity considering the difficulty of method used to try and attain the sound , but at this point in time its not as good as it could be.

you can clearly hear that he is off beat in places , Misses drums and sounds or dose not have the play as clearly as could be possible.

Say i was the first person to juggle with 20 balls you can juggle 20 balls in a smooth intentional way or u can juggle 20 balls in a ruff and unintentional way (underpractised) , in both instances you can say that the guy is juggling but you can say objectively in instance 1 that the juggling looks terable (whilst still admiring the skill required) and that it could be done better to make it look more visually appealing.

Granted there is a degree of assumption in what i am saying As it is entirely possible that the DJ is intentionally missing beats and doing things as he is 100% on purpose but i would think this as unlikely as this DJ is spot on with timing and other aspects of scratching In other work he has done. allso he is not missing beats in the same way you get in jaz or something like aphex twin.

If I could sample the wind, I would loop it

And let my life poem flow over its sacred beats.

Using Kilimanjaro as my djembe I would drum rainbows out of the moonlight and use them as hooks in between verses; verses of little girls spinning ropes in opposite directions, waiting for an opening to jump in.

As the world turns, double dutch, I jump, double time over oceans and back; the water waves and I wave back.

Rippling echoes of "sunshii-ii-iine" - folks get ground in the "sunshii-ii-iine."

But the lightning flaaash three times and its time for the chorus which includes corn bread, candy yams, and all that good stuff, which black folks on Saturn are made of.

As we approach the second verse the roots of trees are plucked from bass lines, which resonate and shake the earth -- devastating everything that's not built in harmony in it.

The second verse is a journey through the ruins of ruined souls; that valued all that was nothing, and nothing of the all-knowing ever flowing wind - which is the undercurrent of this current blowing, the funky drummer from here to eternity.

But even as ruined souls backspin, the wind mills forward and rocks steady 'till the sun hits the fader and the chorus kicks in; then the moon yells "Go!" and we all backspin -- ZULU! As the moonlight shines true blue silvery indigo light my spirit takes flight - because the moonlight is my indigo; indigo ON, to the break of dawn, I rock rock steady steady 'till the early morn, word is bond I'm talking about seeing your nature in nature innate in your nature - New York states of mind did not create ya.

Not until you listen to Rakim on a rocky mountain top have you heard hip-hop.

Extract the urban element that created it and let an open wide countryside let us illustrate it.

Riding in a freight train listening to Coltrane and my reality went insane and I think I saw Jesus; he was playing hop-scotch with Betty Carter who was cursing him out in a scat-like-gibberish for not saying "Butterfingers."

And like the grains of sand, like the seeds of time, the pains of Man, the frames of mind which built these frames which is the structure of my urban superstructure. The trains and planes can corrupt and obstruct your train of thought so that you forget how to walk through the woods which ain't good, 'cause if you never walked through the trees listening to 'Nobody Beats The Biz' you ain't never heard hip-hop.. and you don't stop, and you don't stop, and you don't...

STOP lettin' cities define you, confine you to that which is cement and brick.

We are not a hard peoples, our domes have been crowned with the likes of steeples. That which is our being soars with the eagles, and the Jonathon Livingston seagulls - Yes - I got wings, you got wings, we all got to got wings!

So let's widen the circumference of our nest, and escape this urban incubator -

You see, the wind plays the world like an instrument; blows through trees like flutes but trees don't grow in cement. And as heartbeats bring percussion, fallen trees bring repercussions; cities play upon our souls like broken drums, we drum the essence of creation from city slums - but city slums mute our drums and our drums become humdrum, 'cause city slums have never been where our drums are from - just the place where our daughters and sons become, off-beat heartbeats, slaves to city streets, where hearts get broken and heart beats stop - broken heart beats become break beats for niggas to rhyme on top, but they rhyme about... NOTHIN'.

You don't got nothin' to rhyme about 'cause you've never seen the moon, your styles can't be universal if you're not in tune, with the... [wind noises]

He was off beat at the start.

I know beat juggling is very hard but very few people can do it well , aside from that it seems that allot of people that beat juggle do very technical stuff but without producing a sugnificantly better sound.

if this track was not produced in this fassoin live people would probably say it was poorly produced as the beats were sometimes off and often sounded disjointed.

Have to step in here with my knowledge of Japanese TV:

This is a show hosted by two fairly veteran comedians (the two guys at the bottom), and it's basically like comedy amateur hour. This particular girl only graduated from JHS (high school isn't mandatory), and is one of the many less talented looking for her 15 minutes. You can get some nice, off-beat guys on here... and then... THESE kinda characters.

I'll see if I can find the guy on this program whose routine is starting off with a horrible pun, for which he then punishes himself onstage in various imaginative ways (tethering RC helicopters to his nipples, etc).

I f**k'n Love Russel Brand, he's got a great off beat kind of humor.

Right on Kulpims. I love your stuff and off beat sense of humor.

Man, I remember this from my music appreciation class back in college. I guess my professor did a good job teaching us (or maybe I was the only one who was actually being interested. I felt really awkward because I seemed to be the only one enjoying the class )

Paris was full of art connoisseurs who knew a thing or two of art styles. When This ballet was first shown, the idea of sacrifice and purposely off-beat tempo made everyone angry and they rioted. If you listen closely, none of the sounds are coordinated and they just seem to be everywhere. Even when the music starts with the 'bom bom bom bom bom' in 3:37 it's purposely accented in random timing to break the rhythmic feel, which was the way Stravinsky intended in order to give it a more 'chaotic' feel. Certainly bizzare and Parisians didn't know what to make of this, so they got angry.

Today we can probably categorize his work as 'expressionist' or something. But back then this was a completely different ballfield. Apparently Starvinsky came up with this "sacrificing virginity" idea based on things he observed when he was growing up back in native Russia. Musta been some kind of local tradition. Some rural villages in Japan still does it even to this day I hear.

I guess closest thing we could relate to is like walking into a comedy club in New York and start rapping about child molestation as you're holding up the finger and and repeating the words " *uck the East Coast!!! " Something like that.

I'm *all* about stretching the imagination.
