everybody get random

So my good friend Aleks has cemented her status as coolest person ever, as she will appear in the forthcoming Lady Sovereign video, for her latest (UK) single, "Hoodie." Check out Aleks' behind the scenes pictures right here. More importantly, check out Aleks and the S-O-V herself.

Alright... As some of you out there on the interweb may know, FreeIpods.com is now open to Canadian (and British) residents. So, I'm usually quite skeptical about such things... in fact, I am still kinda skeptical. But my friend Gerald (who did the all the techy stuff for this site) actually got an IPod in the mail the other day. I'm actually kinda on the fence on the whole IPod thing as well (ripping hundreds of cds to my harddrive is not a task that I would look fondly upon)... but for the cost of one of those trial offers, I figured I'd give it a whirl.

If you'd like to help me out on this "it seems to good to be true" crusade, and start one of your own, click here.

I know posting stuff like that is lame, but if it's good enough for LargeHeartedBoy, it's okay for me.

Lastly, and also unrelated, I have extra Indietorrents.com invites. So, if you'd like one just leave a comment with your email address. First four, first served. Please ensure that you a) already know how torrents work. b) will keep your share ratio up. c) will actually use it (cause if you won't someone else probably would have).

update: the four of you should have received emails by now. if you don't get them by tomorrow email me (quinnDOTomoriATgmail) and i'll double check to make sure the invites went through.

now playing: Ray Charles - I Got A Woman (Diplo Remix)

The photos are not really indicative of all that went on that day - the website diary will be much better. In the VIP forum. Should be coming out soon.

And Hoodie does actually sound better live.

Oh, and though I know it's a tad passe already, I decided to put aside my Goldfrapp review this lunch hour to comment on the Call and Response entry instead.
