Scams in China: Text From The Landlord

Posted on by
765

Got this text from a random number this morning:

“Hello, I’m your landlord. I’m outside of Shanghai right now, so please put this month’s rent in bank account XX. After you deposit the money, please let me know.”

I knew this was bullshit for two reasons:

1) I’m moving this weekend and already told my landlord to take the January rent out of my security deposit.

2) My friend got the same text a few weeks ago and called his landlord to see what the deal was. Landlord knew nothing about it.

There’s loads of scams in China, most of which affect locals more than foreigners. While discussing this text message at lunch today, my colleague said someone in our building got swindled out of RMB20,000 (>$3,000) last week! Watch out, and ignore texts/calls from strangers.

Loving what’s happening with female R&B/Rap at the moment:

We bumped 90s acid house breakbeat jams while creepin slow through the traffic jams, bass just kickin.  hardest night of the year to get a cab so i hired one for the night. some of my friends had to walk from the bund to dada (five miles at least). even heard of a black taxi charging 500RMB to go from Pudong to Puxi after midnight (would normally cost RMB35 – 60).

PERSEUS – RUNNING BACK

Posted on by

i don’t often include cover art on the site, but i love this one so much. for some reason it reminds me of the old manga series Gunsmith Cats.

this isn’t a brand new track but i still play it out whenever i can. it stays on my iPod even through massive purges. woke up this morning and it was already playing in my head.

this track is like lemon frosting on carrot cake. the vocal, that arp, the Biggie sample…basically a perfect song.

New oOoOO // OUR LOVING IS KILLING US

Posted on by
1,919

I know I just posted something from the TRI ANGLE label…and I’m gonna do it again. oOoOO’s self-titled EP from 2010 is easily one of my favorite releases of the last five years, possibly ever. It’s ghost-pop, witch-house, death-wave – whatever you wanna call it, the dude has a penchant for crafting dreamy, haunting, fucked-up pop songs. I might even use the word genius to describe this producer from San Francisco.

Almost nothing came out in the interim period between that first EP and now, this – “Our Loving Is Hurting Us” – the followup that does not disappoint.

I listened to this track, “Break Your Heartt” probably thirty times yesterday at work and on the train. Much like “Burnout Eyes” from his first EP, this track gives me the chills in a really good way.

so i took my dad around shanghai to see some real shit yesterday afternoon. the area a few blocks away from Laoximen metro station (Line 10) gets REAL, ya heard. raw meats in the street, fish flopping around in kiddie pools, feral dogs, 90+ grannies knitting on tha block, feral kids.. [almost] no foreigners.

and this is only two metro stops from “the concession.” btw, please stop calling it “the concession” – that is fucking lame, and almost as bad as people saying “Shangers” – that is the worst. come on white people…

反正, we were at this market that sold everything from free weights to digital scales, power drills, USB keys, GUCCI x LV gear, and DVDs, and this uncle came up like “yo i got dat shit” and busted out a couple vials of DRVGS. The top of the box said “AUSTRALIAN VIAGRA” but the side said “MADE IN AMERICA.” he wouldn’t let me take a good picture cause i wudun’t buyin’ nothin (thas wut he said), but i snapped this shot 4 he left, ya heard.

my dad and i stepped outside and met this lady selling fake gold chains, USBs, and some pipes that looked like they was 4 smokin’ ice. she yelled “hello! sorry…” then pointed a gun-shaped lighter at my cock and said “bang!” and “保护你的东西!! (protect your thing)” then “ooooo, sorry. haha, happy new year! I LOVE YOU! sorry..” think she was smokin dat shit in those pipes she was selling…

anyway, it felt like summer this weekend. this song reminds me of summer. it’s a blend of “Eyes Without A Face” and Cassie’s ” Me & U.”

love this one.

Love Affair Recap // Hudson Mohawke “Freek”

thanks and <3 to all who came thru dada last night! got to play a lot of hip hop and moombahton. first time i’ve seen moombahton really really go off like that, felt good.

and special thanks to dude on weibo for taking this photo. sums up the mood of the evening. that’s Doraemon, season two in the background.

[only negative comment about the evening] random dudes please don’t come all up in the dj booth and try to have a n00b conversation about shanghai when the dj’s clearly trying to select and mix, and then not leave when the dj politely asks you to leave, four times… after giving vague, one word answers to questions and throwing social signals like whoa.

i don’t wanna have that kind of conversation with an attractive girl when i’m DJing; definitely don’t wanna have it with some random British dude.

“wow, so you’ve been here for four years???? that’s crazy! you must like it.”

YEAH BRA, IT’S WICK3D>

LUCKILY the bodyguard JER0Me came through and silently handled the situation. no words or blows were exchanged. JERoMe is on tha 道 level, and don’t no one wanna mess with a man on dat level ya hearrrrd me.

big up to JER0Me! i see u cuzin.

today’s track, about waking up horny and needing to call a freak, is from a five-track EP of R&B and hip hop bootlegs by one of my favorite UK producers – Hudson Mohawke. vinyl only because the samples on these tracks by Janet Jackson, Keri Hilson, Jodeci, Aaliyah and Gucci Mane would be so expensive to clear. hopefully i’ll get this on vinyl/唱片 sometime soon.
(this is a vinyl rip/录音从唱片, not the best quality but the song is great!)

I need dat love//music by The Dream

Was walking around Anfu Lu a few weeks ago when I spotted this gem. Got reposted a lot on Weibo and Facebook.

Not sure if this is a joke or an angry ex-girlfriend getting revenge on her cheating 老外 husband. Either way it’s amazing.

Here’s some love-making music from one of my favorites – The Dream. Seriously if you don’t have “Love Hate” go get it today. One of the best R&B albums of all times. He is the ghetto Prince.
