Mixed live on a Sunday afternoon by B3nn3tt4$enat3 and Mike McGill. Boogie, disco, r&b, electro and freestyle jams, dedicated to your mama. No samples cleared, 100% bump, low carbs and a few white boys, sleazy synthesizers and packed dancefloors. Body2Body2Africa and back to the space station; anticipation, triumph, lessons learned.
(this is a little something Mike and I have been working on since he moved to my block earlier in the summer. Catch Mike every Friday from 10:30pm-1am on his show “A Downtown Affair” on WNYU 89.1FM in New York City, or at WNYU.org, and keep an ear to the FAT for more collabo-jawns to come. And always stay tuned to the Music page for the FATtest jams 24/7.)

Some recent Skymall additions from the 16 hour flight between JFK and Hong Kong. The magazine on the Cathay Pacific Airways flight was called SHOP:
NYC to Hong Kong, White vs Non-White
In other Skymall news, I contributed some work to IEEE InfoVis 2007 chaired by Golan Levin, Ben J. Fry, and Fernanda Viégas which just wrapped up earlier this month. (Thanks to Golan for the invite).

Denzel Washington is on the cover, but if you flip past a few cologne ads, you’ll find a whole other crew of debonair studs on page 218. It’s a two page spread; How To Make Your Own Graffiti Research Lab. Written by GRL, lettering by Bennett4$enate, and stupid-fresh, subliminal-message-laden illustrations by none other than Mr. Robert F. Houlihan III. Available for you to cop at local newsstands, or get the PDF right here. Web version here.
