Doubles

Greetings boys. My apologies for my brief hiatus, just got back into town from a trip back east. I meant to give an update sooner, but my internet at my Mom's has been on the fritz and I almost smashed my computer to shreds. Anyhow, the trip was pretty rad, although my planning was poor and I didn't get to see Chief down there in Connecicut. But I did see a bunch of cool art, ate some ridiculous food, and seriously stepped up my wardrobe. Not much raging, but certainly a nice trip.

I'm back in the Denver now, and last night I had one of the most vivid dreams of my entire life. It certainly wasn't the coolest, but it felt so real that when I woke up this morning there was only one thing that I wanted to do: go to the pool.

In my dream last night, I was jumping off the diving board, throwing some gainers. Then, out of the blue, I threw a double-gainer and landed it with ease. I literally woke up giddy this morning with a fat smile on my face, checked in with the Kid, and made plans to mob to the pool around 12:30. Unfortunately, as soon as I got to the pool and did my first gainer, I realized that the dream was exactly that--a dream, and it wasn't going to happen today.

However, with my ego slightly deflated, I refused to leave the pool without throwing some sort of double. So naturally, I started thinking I could throw a double front. I had thrown a double front a few times when I was younger and much more coordinated, but usually they ended up with a big slap and a red back. But after a few over-rotated one and a halfs, Max brought out the white iPhone4 (swag) and captured it. Certainly not the prettiest thing, but hey, hopefully it'll entertain ya.

The real reason I am even posting is to drop some new tunez for my boyz. The song in the background of the video is a R.A.C. Remix of Theophilius London's Why Even Try. This song is an absolute gem. It has literally been on repeat for the last 14 hours, and I can't get enough of it. When I think of the eclectic music that gets posted on Hiplectic, this song certainly has appeal that everyone will be stoked on.

The next track is a new jam by everyone's favorite 22 year-old swedish dj Avicii. I'm not sure if this is old or new (the beat certainly sounds super familiar, but I don't think I've ever heard this version with the lyrics) but this new jam Fade Into Darkness (Vocal Radio Edit) would probably be the music in the trailer if someone made a movie about this past year at 6633. Such a great jam, miss you catz.
