Girth Radio Presents…

Finally!! We all have these beats…songs that are faint memories and we don’t have enough to google. (How amazing would google become if you could hum or sing a song and it would be like…oh! I know that one here ya go! Here’s to the brave future we all want to occupy!).

Early September I saw Lights Out (couple of sweet moments…check it out). However the body count was low…2 cops (who were collateral damage and not related to the horror at hand and 1 proper killing from the horror-monster (well…and 1 suicide but again mainly collateral damage)).

All the new horrors (the James Wan horrors…Insidious’, Conjurings etc.) low body counts; that seems to be the latest horror trend. It’s like they make you invest in the characters or like the plot.

Graffiti I saw in NYC in 2011:

No Diggity remains one of hip hop’s most popular jams. At Pacific Junction Hotel bar (home of Girth Radio!) it gets dropped on the jukebox often. Actually a bit too much. There’s so many ways to cover this tune and Chet Faker does a fine job.

The 71st season of the National Basketball Association begins on Tuesday October 25, 2016. KG, Kobe and Duncan are retired (you can toss Stoudemire into that mix and mercifully Mo Williams and Landry Fields are gone which…if you’ve seen em play is not a tragedy) so for the first time this’ll be a new look NBA.

I am ready! Are you?

You’ll either be sold by the song’s description: “Crazy rare heavy afro funk from Ghana” or the drums which needlessly to say are…funky.

Documentaries ain’t known for their excellent soundtracks. When The Garden Was Eden an ESPN 30 for 30 is an outlier. Directed by Michael Rapaport who is quintessentially New York City much like Daptone Records this track was an ideal match for a documentary on the last championship the New York Knicks won. It remains to be been seen what Phil Jackson can do and who the Knicks will become.
