The Austerity Program is two people from New York City and their drum machine. Thad Calabrese plays bass and Justin Foley sings and plays guitar. Neither have taken any instructional courses on playing their instruments. Not even a "how-to" video. Thad and Justin began playing music together while attending college in New York City. They just released their first album the Black Madonna. we really digg their sound here at the APC, if you are into minimal, punk, metal. Here is a sample from the album the Song 17b. Check out their website they have a lot more to say and offer then we can mention here! Great band!

The Austerity Program: Song 17b

Britney inspired art exhibition opened in Hollywood this Friday. As the eonline reported, it is a group show featuring more than 30 pieces of art inspired by the pop princess at the World of Wonder gallery. You can check out few pieces in their post over there. Well we are not sure that Brit would buy any of these ;) But the pictures are rocking!!

Madonna, Afrika Bambaataa, Beastie Boys among 9 acts nominated for Rock and Roll Hall of Fame (wiki entry), we all heard the news, right? Its quite funny that some people get upset, that Madonna or the Beasties are not rock, it is even funnier that the fans or the local supporters of the artists get euphoric about the nomination. But what is Rock and Roll today? Who will be nominated for the Hall of Fame in the next years if all the oldshcool rocker legends will be inside? Maybe they should rename that museum or Rock and Roll is not only about the yelling guitars anymore? We decided to have our own poll about this issue, you can find it in the inner sidebar, just under the comments. Let your voice heard and show the music industry what do you think. We will see how our taste and the ‘professionals’ opinion will look like when the results will be available in 2008.

We hope you enjoyed our Saturday Night Retro Toy Movie, the Discovering Electronic Music. Here is somethis special following the same mood. We don’t know exactly what it is, but it looks like somebody made a retro Kraftwerk videomashup for the Showroom Dummies, by  reediting the The Model video. Very nice!

This is an
educational film from 1983 describing a little bit of the history and
tools of electronic music. The best thing about it is that it is behind
the times for 1983, and seems more like a 1970s film. Frequently
featured is a Moog modular! Also featured is a Fairlight, but as an
analog obsessive, I’m less interested in that. You’ll love this film
if you love analog synthesizers, electronic music (historic, not
electronica), or music geeks. : ) Lots of cool oscilloscope shots,
primitive sequencers, etc.

PLEASE, help us by clicking this digg.com button. It
helps us to spread the world and it  helps other people to find this
story. Digging is FREE and FUN!!!! PLEASE DIGG!!! THX!
