"A Bunch O' Horn(y) Mutherfunkers!" -Hypnotic Brass For Yo Ass

One of my favorite bands that you more than likely ever heard, the Hypnotic Brass Ensemble of is back on the music map with an upcoming release that will hopefully make them more of a house hold name. BTW next Saturday (Oct. 9th) you can catch them performing live at the Highline Ballroom previewing their new EP "Heritage" was is comprised of covers—Art of Noise, Jay-Z, Fela Kuti and, maybe most fittingly, Outkast's joint "SpottieOttieDopaliscious" which I posted for you below. And here's a behind -the-scene video of the band recording out in an Ireland studio.

"Flashing Lights" -Paparazzi Pics (Pt.1)

Capturing fun is HARD work! Yeah it looks good,
but coming home smelling like spilt Mojitos ain't a good look.
Here's the pics form last weeks festivities at HIRO BALLROOM,
and ya boy Pan's B'day bash at BOUCAROU LOUNGE.

"On Another Note..." -Hypnotic Brass Ensemble

You ever had one of those close to perfect days, where it seems like everything is just clicking for you? First off it was a (payday) Friday, I had just gotten off of work. The weather was clearing up rather nicely and I had just randomly ran into and reconnected with two long-lost friends (one being a best friend of mine). So you can imagine, I was ending my day on a pretty high note. That's until I had happened upon a Subway performance group that took it to a whole other level. I had strolled past mid-song ("Balicky Bon") and was floored!
These young cats was KILLIN' it and had the crowd to prove it.
Just picture four trumpeters, two trombonists, a drummer and a saxophone player calling themselves the Hypnotic Brass Ensemble, getting "rained on" with legal tender by a gathering of 50 or more passer's by... in the middle of rush hour... in Times Square!
I forked over $15 bucks for a CD to take home for a listen,
which further proved that these dudes is "the new Truth."
Non-believers can just take a peep over at their blog Hypnoticbrass.blogspot.com, and yes like you, they too have a Myspace (.com/hypnoticbusiness) page. But the Minority Report recommends a tour 'round the ol' Youtube for more proof that these cats can blow!
