Nerdcore rising

As usual I don't have much time to write this, as much as I want to spend ages on it, so just imagine this blog post to the power of 5 and you'll have some idea of my feelings.

Some of you may have noticed a newish appearence in my sig, a Nerdcore Rising banner. If you have clicked the link you will have found the website of a documentary which follows nerdcore hiphop artist MC Frontalot on his first national (US) tour. Here are my thoughts on the film:

I really loved it, it is full of humour, interesting interviews, the odd emotional moment, and great music. If you are a fan of nerdcore, or just a nerd, or are a friend of the world wide nerd community I implore you to buy the DVD, it is well worth the buy.

If you don't know what nerdcore is, the best advice I can give is to see this film. Otherwise, the explaination I always give is that it is hiphop and rap with geek culture references in the lyrics. For a better idea check out beefyness.com and see the recent post with a video on it - the intro is in Dutch but soon it is English.

I would love to talk more about it, but have to do 3 hours worth of work in the next 40 minutes. Check out MC Frontalot, Beefy, YTCracker, MC Lars

AND ESPECIALLY....
