    • Dave Aude – Mixed Live

      by David Gluzman

      Uncensored, one take, true skills, lots of energy. That is the truth behind the ‘Mixed Live’ series from Moonshine music.
      Recorded live at Velvet in St. Louis, Dave Aude pumps it out hard, and you can feel the crowed diggin’ the vibe. You could say it definitely helps create an atmosphere of being there when you …

    • Bookworm Deluxe

      by David Gluzman

      Gaming is a popular topic of conversation on R4NT these days. I’ve read many opinions on how “Enter The Matrix” is the best game going right now, and I think it just plain sucks; it’s boring and the quality is comparable to an underdeveloped duck embryo. Call me boring, but I remember back …

    • Richard Dorfmeister – Presents a Different Drummer Selection

      by a parallel mechanic

      Though it may be a gimmick to market this Different Drummer showcase as a Richard Dorfmeister remix album, it’s certainly not a bad idea to get the stamp of approval from the universe’s most accomplished downtempo producer. And though the shiny sticker on the CD package says “Different Drummer Releases Selected and Remixed by Richard …

    • A non researched view of Insurance Companies

      by David Gluzman

      I only have one more year to go in order to reach premium platinum adult driving status or for my car insurance to drop to a record breaking low, glory I can’t wait. Hold up, back up the truck. I’ve been paying insurance on vehicles for about 6 years.. Hmm. That’s about… oh.. $18,000..A non researched view of Insurance Companies

      There is nary a place in London that you can walk without being on camera. Train stations, bridges, alleys, main tourist arteries, all watched by cameras..

    • Derelict?

      by Crom

      The former Soviet Union was right. Americans are fat… and stupid. They are decadent, and wasteful. I’m certain however, that the same could be said for many nations and peoples..

    • Chungking

      by Tummy Touch

      Hailing from Brighton, the San Francisco of Sussex, the band’s debut album is the product of a three year labour of love and loss across five decades of sound. Timeless songs, delivered with a lightness of touch and a voice that will make you swoon.

    • Cerys Matthews – Cockahoop

      by Terence Leung

      Welsh nurse, Catalan-speaking, barfly busker, little known indie-pop singer, excess, alcohol, drugs, Catatonia frontwoman, “fastrisinglagersoakedriproaringpoptart”, undisputed queen of mid-90’s brit-pop, fights, tours, money, parties, inexplicable yet inescapable duet with Tom Jones..

    • Xmen 2

      by Obsidian

      Over the past decade or so, movie properties based on comic books have become one of the hottest things going. Some of us have been reading comics long enough to remember when we could only hope that some of these great characters would ever be brought to life on the big screen. In the summer …

    • Sin City

      by Crom

      The rampant gambling infection, in every nook and cranny, lends some seediness to places that would be alright, if they didn’t have some vacant eyed grandma, blowing her life savings, sitting right next to you..

    • Ugly sticks

      I am already thinking about some way to engage in conversation with her. Just one more test. The Seinfeld 30 sec rule. If she looks at you 3 times in 30 secs she is interested…

    • SARS-castic: an Audio R4NT

      by Crom

      If they’ve been worshipping their TV so much that they wear the mask in the first place, haven’t they been convinced by Wolf Blitzer and the rest of the news elite, that SARS is impervious to anti-bodies, leaps tall buildings in a single bound, and can infect you by knowledge of the virus alone…

    • Big Dada Videos and Sounds

      by Big Dada

      Big Dada – “the most progressive British hip hop label ever” – (The Fader, NY).

    • Sony CyberShot DCS-P32

      by Crom

      Sony’s little cybershot is indeed handy. Fast, light and sleek looking it appeals to the esthetic and the technical. I picked up this bad boy in order to have a camera for my travels into the US, and it’s been good to me. The layout of the back panel is standard to all digital cameras …

    • Liberator Shapes: Wedge + Ramp Combo

      by R4NT

      I had the perfect plan: Candle light dinner, some Barry White and a glass of wine, followed with some sweet tender loving, but with a twist! What the hell is this?! Was the unfortunate reaction to my casual introduction to the huge Liberator “Ramp” lying on the bed. However after further inspection, followed …

    • Business

      by The Macleod

      ..with my best jogging pants and my Wildcats sneakers on I was dressed for success. I hit the neighbourhood streets with nothing more than a bowlful of pinecones and a pocketful of dreams. I would be the next great Canadian success story.

    • Food for Thought

      by Crom

      ..or some reason, most people seem to believe that there are a hundred people behind a curtain at their local Denny’s just trying to get everything perfect, as if the Queen of England were dining there..

      by MaxPower

      The baffles on his muffler had to be removed as it sounded like a jet was taking off down the street. This was probably exactly the effect he was going for, extreme annoyance..

    • Tourist vs. Traveler

      by Steve McGrath

      Well intentioned and inspired as I might consider myself. I am still a tourist. I take photos of everywhere I go. I visit the beautiful places. I see some of the other places, I meet locals but I can not become a one..

      “How many wheels does your car have? Not as many as this one! The new 12 wheel squirrel”
      Who the heck is Mr. Scruff you say? Well if you’ve seen the new Lincoln Navigator commercials with a really catchy beat then you’ve heard the Scruff at work. That track is “Get a move …

    • Tosca – Dehli9

      by a parallel mechanic

      Dreamy, dubby, and *gasp* housey…
      Unless I’m on drugs or with a girlie that loves to dance (unfortunately both rare situations by the way), I can’t get down to “funkee house muzak,” it just doesn’t get me off. So when I heard that the new Tosca album was a bit more housey than their prior releases, …

      This past year I had the opportunity to ride for Block 8 and try out their parts. I set up my hardtail with the Block 8 12 Gauge cromo bars, Block 8 cromo Crank Pipes and Sealed Cage Match pedals. On my Full-Suspension I threw on the 12 Gauge bars and the Cage …

    • A Fine Cheese

      by David Gluzman

      She had just turned 18 and was out ripping it up at the club, but then it dawned on me that she was born in 1985! Heck, I remember what I was doing in 1985, and that made me feel really old..

    • Gamer Hype

      by MaxPower

      There is no reason for Sony or Microsoft to rush forward the release of a next generation machine when the PS2 has been selling like mad without any major discounts since the last round prior to Christmas..

    • The Police Officer, The Construction Worker, The Indian, The Biker and The Retard

      by Terence Leung

      The movies, television, media and our everyday lives that invariably encompass those things will always try to push the boundaries of taste, especially humor. It is because it is not real. Racism, sexism, prejudice, stereotypes and insults that cut deep don’t become until they are real..
