Another short and sweet Round UP! this week. Came across this Arcade Fire HTML 5 Video project eariler this week. Pretty rad stuff. It uses the google maps API to to basically create a custom video. It works best with locations that have alot of street view information. I find it fascinating and scary at the same time.
Looks like the BBC has stumbledUpon (complete pun intended) the wacky and zanny world of 4chan. It all started with the video of a lady throwing her cat in the garbage. And the rest is internet history. Check out the BBC’s take on these web icons.
BBC News – The Strange Virtual World of 4chan
We just wanted to bring this to your attention again. A fun little bootleg combing 3 great things. 80′s Hair metal, Bmore club, and rave raps. Oh ya, and it was also featured on Tighten UP! podcast 2.

Following up on our series of featured artists from the Tighten UP! podcast volume 4 is our guy ENDBOSS. Not to be confused with this END BOSS, he’s a dubstep producer from Philly getting serious looks for his dirty basslines that reak of Hot Robot Breath. He’s recently teamed up with another Philly producer, Stepkinetic, to form the side project, Silverback. We knew they were up to some damage when they made Nelly Furtado sound dope over dubstep. Mad kudos bars to you two. And with that enjoy the download.

Yeasayer – O.N.E. (Peter Dragontail Remix Mix)
This ones for the ladies. We are REALLY digging this Yeasayer Remix by Philly’s Peter Dragontail. This guy has been under the radar in Philly for a bit, with some stand out track writing. (And some wild illustration skills too if we might add) This track is def on the deeper tip.
