R.A.P statt E.K.G



First show, done & done. Sorry that I didn't make a big annoucement. I had a lot of things on my mind and I just wanted to get the first show out of the way. Just to say, "Hey...I did it...it worked". And when I say "I", I mean "We" as in, me and my roomie Zilv.

A couple of months ago, this was just a random idea about doing a radio show with U.S. rap presented in German & German rap presented in English. And now we've actually done it...

Sound quality-wise, there's no place to go but up. Still some bugs to work out in the mastering/pre-production process. Also saying relevant things in a meaningful way. It's definitely a learning-by-doing effort.

Anyway, for those who missed out, you can hear the first (completely unmastered) show here:



For future reference (I'll send out reminders from now on) "R.A.P statt E.K.G." can be heard every second Friday of the month from 5pm-7pm on the Hamburg radio station FSK 93,0 (antenna) or 101,4 (cable) or click/save this link for the live stream.

The next show will be on February 12, 2010.

We'll be launching a website/blog so that I don't have to put radio stuff up on this page. I'll keep you advised.

Highway to hell? Maybe for a very short time, but as long as I can remember I was always down with the PP. Anyways, I see what I can do ringtone-wise. This will of course lead to me not picking up the phone as I won't notice it's my phone making that noise...

The Best Taco Bell in Germany

 Last weekend, I crossed off a major item on my bucket list. I went to Taco Bell in Germany. "But Raven, shouldn't you aspire to better, healthier things that have a measurable positive impact on society?" I know that's what you're thinking, but I don't really give a crap... because you are not the boss of me.  I wanted Taco Bell, because it's probably the one thing from back at home that I crave the most. Say what you want about it (again, I don't give a crap), but get at me when you've spent years away from your homeland and are unable to acquire whatever nasty-ass comfort food is available wherever you're from. For me, my nasty-ass comfort food of choice is Taco Bell...with Sonic a close second. However, you can't even find Sonic all over the U.S. and I don't find myself craving burgers and hot dogs all the time (plus, those urges are a lot easier to satisfy than a craving for Mexican or Tex-mex).

The One Who Got Away (Part 6): PLOT TWIST

Quick Translation: This confirms that German citizenship will not be opposed, if within two years it can be verified that the aforementioned person no longer possesses citizenship for Trinidad and Tobago e   and/or has fulfilled the requirements for the loss of this citizenship and that nothing has happened in the meantime, which would forbid naturalization.  I almost forgot what it felt like to receive a industrial size dose of 100% homegrown German bureaucratic pedantry. Luckily, the German authorities will never leave you too long without a fix. You can count on that. As you can see from the picture above (and from my previous posts), Trinidad and Tobago e  had only been mentioned once in passing up until now, when I finalized my application and paid the fee. Mr. S: Your mother was naturalized in the U.S. after you were born? Me: Yes, but she never applied for Trinidadian citizenship for me, which would have had to have been done by my 18th birthday....

9 Days in Paris (Part 1)

Now that Dreamweek is over and I've had a chance to get a bit settled, I've got a bit of time to reflect and share some thoughts about my Paris vacation. It's going to be a multi-part "series" so that I can recall things better. Frosty will probably pipe up at some point in the comments to dispute my recollection of some events. There are two sides to every story, unfortunately his side of the story doesn't have a blog. :-P Spending 9 days in Paris for vacation is a bit overkill. Especially if it's your first trip, especially if you're trying to fit in most of the major attractions in the city. I don't know how people manage to see all that crap in one weekend (or crazier still, an under 48 hours trip). We spent an average of 8-10 hours walking around each day, I feel like I've only seen about 5% of what the city has to offer. I basically crashed into bed at the end of each day. That said, overall, it was a pleasant experience. I took a lot of...
