REQUIEM FOR DETROIT.
this is a great documentary from the bbc. if you want to understand america, there’s no better place to start than in detroit. she is the bastard child of capitalism. an abandoned whore we once lusted for. and a shape of things to come.
david cross and aziz ansari dvd’s
just picked up both aziz ansari’s intimate moments for a sensual evening and david cross’s bigger and blackerer. they are both really fantastic. watching them back to back, I noticed how aziz ansari’s humor is so beautifully modern day. I certainly wouldn’t expect people over a certain age to understand any of it though, especially the online chat room humor between him and his cousin. but I love that the material is that technologically ballsy. the guy is just so fucking funny. nothing else to say.
david cross always straddles the line between a very serious social commentary and bursts of childish quips. I find myself wishing for hours of his more political material. he has this real brilliant darkness to him that is just peaking through in the gentlest of ways. wish I could see more of him in show or film.
oddly I tried stopping aziz ansari one time when I was in l.a in his car outside of this cafe to ask him if he was performing anywhere, but I think he thought I was a raaaaaaandy fan and got freaked out and sped away.
the larry sanders show
i recently started watching all the larry sanders shows as every dvd commentary I ever listen too seems to mention it as a huge influence on their shows. most people missed it but it holds it’s own amongst the best comedies ever made. if you like curb your enthusiasm, then this will blow your mind. was the first show for so many of the new greats.
walton ford
i’m sure the republicans would have loved trying this method out.
if only just to blow some shit up underwater.
7 inch series starting this month.
I am very excited about this new series of edits coming out on limited run 45’s. the music will be a bit more eclectic with less of a song structure and more of a instrumental format. each will come with a hand painted sleeve and small hole for easier mixing. please check the soundclips and leave any comments or questions.
A - Be Thankful

welcome to truth is light records.
after a decade of not really being on internet, i figured there was enough material out to justify having a website. please keep checking in regularly for updates on new releases and/or other noteworthy information.
