Obsessions

This being an adult thing sure is rough!
Sorry I haven't updated in quite a while. With long work days, the never ending job that is Parenthood, and all those awesome things in the world that continue to contribute to my severe case of adult A.D.D., I really have been neglecting this blog of mine.
So now that I have a moment to spare, here is a list of the current things that gobble up my free time:

• Instant Noodle Review - I really love imported instant Ramen. It's cheap and really good. This site has made it easy to pick out the good ones when venturing out to the Asian Markets.

• Smodcast - Kevin Smith has a whole network of podcasts that help my workdays fly by. I guarantee you will laugh out loud and your coworkers will think you are crazy.

• Asian Horror Cinema - It's October, usually I get in the mood for Halloween by watching nothing but horror movies, leading up to the big day. This year, they just happen to be mostly Asian flicks.

• Halloween Candy - There is candy and then there is HALLOWEEN CANDY. Those limited time sweets that are only available this time of year. My current Favorites are Pumpkin Spice and Candy Corn Hershey's Kisses.

• Puzzle Quest - I finally gave in to the hype and have been playing the first game on my PSP, and part 2 on PC. This game has a way of making you feel stupid when making the wrong move. I just can't bring myself to stop playing it...

• Minecraft - It looks like crap, it kind of plays like crap, and I really have no idea why I continue to play it. If you haven't played it or even heard of it, go see what all the geeks are talking about.

A list of my current favs:

A Real Love Story

Well Women always say that guy's never like the idea of someone falling inlove with someone the first time they meet and basically would do anything for each other. Well Ladies I am here to tell you that we have our answer to chick Flicks and it's called "Dick Flick" though it sounds like a rather interesting sexual act, it is true and well The Ultimate Dick Flick would have to be the Tony Scott Directed, Tarantino written film

TRUE ROMANCE (1993) (US)

Clarence Worley is what your typical Nerd with great taste would be (Elvis Fanatic also). Just that he is played by a Good Looking Leading actor in Christian Slater but still it is shown that he is basically what at the time Nerds would always see themselves as (A Bad Ass who lives in his own world and not apologizing for it). It is then that he meets "by chance" Alabama a beautiful Blonde Bombshell played by Patricia Arquette who after taking this role in my opinion became my ideal woman (Watch the movie and you will see why.)

After a night of enjoying some Triple Shots of Sonny Chiba they go out for pie to find out more about one another and it seems that these two are just a match made in Heaven. All it takes is Clarence to explain to Alabama a deep meaning of a Sgt. Nick Fury comic (which I use to have :-D) they share a night of passionate love making.

After the blue lit intercourse Clarence wakes up to find Alabama gone out the window, he follows her to see that she is crying, it is revealed that their meeting was not by chance but by scheduled appointment from Clarance's boss who decided to give him an amazing birthday gift (wish my employers were that awesome but then again I wish I worked at an awesome job like Clarence) But Clarence being so cool just says that he had a great time despite knowing the truth about Alabama and she seems to respond with the same feelings but with a little more to it than just Like, The Two are married due to mutual feelings that one IS the others Soul Mate.

Our story does not end here cause well then that would just make it seem a little too easy, All I can tell you is that it later involves a Pimp, a Film Producer and a Hotel I ain't gonna reveal to you everything this movie has to offer but I will tell you that this movie basically has everyone in it.

Brad Pitt, Val Kilmer, Sam Jackson, Chris Penn,Tom Seizmore, Gary Oldman, Dennis Hoopper, James Gandolfini, Jack Black (Deleted Scene) and Balki Bartokomous.

This movie will have you Laughing, crying and just plain out saying "What The Fuck?"

If you feel the need to tell your girlfriend you wanna watch something that you think she is gonna like then you just need to tell her some of the names on that list and basically teh first 20 minutes of the movie.

So Ladies when you feel like telling a guy that he has no soft side to him then you better be ready to take a lap nap on the meat pillow because you are gonna see the greatest love story ever written.

Today's Revenge: Open Origins

VIGILANTE (1983) (US)

If you think about it any revenge flick can be an origin story especially if the continuation is brilliant - decent. But many times it is really not called for especially if the Hero kills everyone who was involved in the first place. But this particular title was something I think could have had a great sequel to if done right like this one was.

Vigilante was brought to us by William Lustig, the man who brought us classics like "Maniac", "Maniac Cop", "Relentless", "Maniac Cop 2", ect.). Many people would consider this to be a better version of Death wish. Do not get me wrong I love Death Wish and the developing stories of Paul Kersey, but Vigilante is a movie that gave you characters that you wanted to see more of. Robert Forster is billed as the head star of the flick but Fred "THE HAMMER" Williamson steals the show from the very start of the film with an amazing speech to the citizens tired of all the crime in the streets that seriously can beat any cliche' sounding speech put in today's cinema. (This speech was used as the selling clip to fund the rest of the movie). If there was anything that went together about this movie was that is had the feel of a modern (at the time) Spaghetti Western, hell even the theme song made it seemed like an urban western LISTEN!



GOD!Doesn't that shit just make you wanna put on whatever game you got and just blow away suckaz? Anywho I feel like I am getting off subject.

Well Forster is a family man who you can totally tell by the tender moments with his family at the start of the flick is gonna end real bad. Once it does he tries to take the crook through the system which of course is always of no help, especially since they are under the payroll of the criminals and also the defense is led by the Late Great Maniac himself Joe Spinell. After a short sentence given to the suspect involved. Forster loses it and snaps at the court which lands him in contempt. But while in Prison he has nothing but built up rage along with some problems on the inside to deal with. Outside Forster's Buddy played by Williamson is out cleaning the streets with his crew to try and find out some more information on who was responsible for the attack on Forster's family.

This movie ends on a note that this might not be the last time you see the characters that maybe one day there will be a sequel. (But like I said only if done properly please enjoy the opening speech from Vigilante and pick it up from Blue Underground DVD. You will be glad that you did.

Mask Of The Fantomas

In the Today's Revenge post I added a fan video to the band's version of the theme from Cape Fear but I wanted to share with you some of their other movie theme covers from their album "The Director's Cut". If you wanna hear more then please pick up this album right away. But for now take a look and a listen to the Faith No More front man's other band (one out of many more amazing projects) Fantomas!

Today's Revenge: Making Up For Lost Time

CAPE FEAR (1991) (US)

Keep in mind Revenge is something for the Wicked and not the Good. If you don't believe that statement then you obviously must not have even heard of the word at all in your life. The idea of finding someone that wronged you and doing the worst thing you can think of to make them realize the pain they put You through can only be executed by the demons inside of us all. Well I decided that the past 3 posts on the subject at hand have mainly been about a person who didn't deserve to be wronged but today I am gonna cover the other side of it. I will be covering the re-make which is usually not my style but I will explain why.



Meet Max Cady A Good Ole' Boy who was put to trail for the assault and rape of a young girl and sentenced to a nice lengthy 14 year stay in prison. It was brought to Cady's attention that the reason he was put there was not because of the Defense's efforts but cause of a helping hand by his own lawyer Sam Bowden. Bowden a family man (well a dysfunctional family man) is trying to get through his life dealing with his own problems, the growing adolescence of his daughter, constant arguing with his wife and the desire to have an affair with a co-worker until his past comes back to haunt him, this being the release of one Mr.Max Cady.The former client seems to have been keeping in good shape not just physically but mentally.

While "paying his dues" in the correctional facility he brushed up on his reading mostly the Bible of both Law and Religion. As he first meets up with Bowden he let's him know that he is free, he has served hard times and most of all is gonna make life a living hell for the Attorney at Law by parting off with the words "You Gonna Feel My Pain".Bowden at first thinks nothing of it but just a minor threat, until he notices that Cady is everywhere he is but is simply not harassing him the way they law would consider it thanks to Cady's enormous understanding of man made law's.

Oh keep in mind people that this revenge is not just mind games it Violence as well. Especially this version. The reason why I chose this is because it shows you the brutality of the situation not just by telling you but also showing you. I loved the original but this version is by far the most terrifying one. From the classic theme song to the final seconds of the credits where all you can hear is the waters of Cape Fear splashing together which just leaves you with shivers. If you have not seen it then please do yourself a favor and check out the re-make which is by far one of the best DeNiro performances hands down. Now I won't show you the trailer but for those of you who have seen it please enjoy this music video fan made to the music of the Mike Patton side project "Fantomas". See Ya Next Time, Counselor

My Favorite Game Intros

Who can't forget the first time they played Ocarina Of Time?
Firing up the N64. Hearing the galloping of Epona's hoofs as the melancholy, yet beautiful tune begins to play as Link, on steed, rides into the dawn.
It was magic.

Game intros can leave leave a lasting impression on you, whether you realize it or not. First impressions can really be everything. Especially when dealing with that good old feeling of video game euphoria.

Here are some of my favorites...

Today's Revenge: Suburban Vigilante

DEATH SENTENCE (US)

My favorite kind of Protagonist is The Everyday Man. Because just a simple canvas of a character can be painted into such a bloody picture. Based on the sequel novel to Death Wish, This movie is far from being a sequel but is it's only little piece of Americana gone wrong. Kevin Bacon plays Nick Hume, a successful businessman with a great family and a nice house in the Burbs (no not where Tom Hanks lives). Well one day while returning home from a Hockey game along with his son Brenden who played in the game he decides to stop and get gas in the very very wrong side of town. Brenden goes inside to get a drink but is met with a gang of hooded thugs who have come in to rob the place blind but also to initiate a new member at the expense of Brenden's life and throat. Nick overhearing the robbery witnesses the brutal demise of his son and manages to get a look at the one who delivered the deadly blow but is in shock such a hideous act has happened causing the thug to get away, well.....sorta.

Once the Street trash is apprehended by the authorities Nick identifies him as the killer. But brought to Nick's attention by his attorney that he is the only eye witness of the scene and that the suspect would only get a small amount of time in Prison. Hume decides it is not enough and retracts his identification of the crook, causing the case to be dismissed but this is not the end of Nick Hume's Vengeance.Later on that night he follows the murderer home and dishes out his own brand of justice.

Nick is filled with satisfaction but still is left with the sadness of wanting his Son back, but is just happy that the whole ordeal is over....too bad it isn't. Word gets around to the newly deceased criminal's older brother who find out about the ordeal and also manages to track down Mr.Hume.

I don't wanna give too much away but what I can tell you is that this movie is a reminder that Revenge is one of the best kinds of plots a movie can have especially if done right. I admit to not caring for the film too much when I first saw it but watching it again years later I found a great appreciation for it and long to make a huge return to the Revenge genre. Great performances, camera angles (Especially an onfoot chase scene in a parking structure that is 1 continuous shot.) and the grittyness that a revenge movie is always known for.Chocolate Chip Kudo's to Director James Wan. heres a trailer to this great Revenge Flick. Check it out and remember do not fuck with Kevin Bacon cause if you do I can promise you that he will find out about it from someone who knows someone, who knows someone, who knows someone, who knows someone, who knows someone that worked with or actually know Kevin Bacon and he will Punch Dance Your Soul.

Champagne and Chili-Doggy Style

Random post I wanted to do, If there are two things that go together like Champagne and Doggy Style it is Good Music and Anime. Please Bare Witness to these few videos that Prove my point.I posted 2 for Afro Samurai 1 cause it goes really well with score from the actual Series and another one that totally reminds me of an MTV AMP/ MTV Raps kinda vibe.

Get You Some Of That Dick To-Go

In Honor of our Banner at this time having one of the greatest Dick's in history (in the tradition of Dick Richie, Dick Dietrick, and Lex Steele) Dick Togo or Dick To-GO (Thanks Mom for misreading my wrestling tape label, I am gonna show you a quick match of his, it's a tag match where Dickie and fellow DDT Athlete Chou Un Shiryu take on the Joshi tag team of NEO Machine Guns Which consist of Tanny Mouse (blonde hair) & Yuki Miyazaki. Followed by a match I found and just had to share which had two of my favorite Lightweights from Japan Taka Michinoku (Fellow Kaientai Member of Richard To Go) and the Japanese Buzzsaw Yoshihiro Tajiri. Enjoy!

PROMOTIONAL PERSUATION

We have a new segment here at Video Kung Fu Lucha Geekout, Promotional Persuasion. A segment in which we will bring to you the Posters to some of the movies we love. Today's Persuasion comes the movie Death Sentence. This Film will be covered in next weeks Revenge.

Today's Revenge: Double Barrell Blood Bath

I vowed in the previous post that you would know my taste for Revenge does not lie only in the states, though home to an arsenal of Vengeance caught on film,It seems to be small potatoes compared to the type of stuff that goes down in regions of the world we dream of visiting, but wake up screaming from the nightmarish reality they dish out.


THRILLER: A CRUEL PICTURE (SWEDEN)



They Called Her One Eye, and then ran for their lives. This Tale of Treachery is by far one of the most brutal flicks in the genre. Even the first 5 minutes of this movie lets you know that everything is F@#$%! to begin with. Picture if you will a little girl named Frigga playing happy in the park and is approached by an old man who seems to be enjoying his time with the little girl even picking her up to look at her and smile, only for him to show us what his true intentions were all along as his face of joy turns into an expression of Evil and Lust, all we are left is with the screams of innocence being thrown out of this movie.

The incident left Frigga a mute, who despite her social handicap and becoming a village joke has moved on in life.Then one day on her way to school, She is caught in the sites of a Demon in disguise known as Tony who wines and dines her with a delicious roofie filled merlot. She wakes up and tried to escape Tony but is captured and has her eye cut out for her defiance, later she is drug into the world of Prostitution and Drug Addiction all against her will, such humiliation of a human being who never asked for it leaves you feeling uneasy. Though the lead actress playing Frigga (Christina Lindberg) is very beautiful it seems to only add to the shocking acts Tony and his gang put her through and for sure makes you feel kinda turned on when she starts striking back.

The development is pretty deep for what many consider an action Porn movie.Frigga, though a character you feel for and want to see win, you see and know that all hope for her other than her Revenge is lost, she still takes the drugs she has become addicted to, she will kill anybody in her way and basically can never go back to a normal life after all this is over. From her days of a Young Victim to a Cold Hard Killing Machine you will feel like you have lived the long and messed up life right beside her.


I won't give too much away cause well I would hate to rob you of the full experience this movie is, although my only beef with it was a long slow motion fight scene, it is still an amazing movie. Every tag line for this movie is true. Check it out and be sure it is the red cover "Thriller A Cruel Picture" the Yellow cover "They Call Her One Eye" is heavily edited and you really should never try to soften revenge.

TRIOS!!!!

Since the big King OF Trios Tournament is this weekend for Chikara, I am posting early a 6 Man or Trios match to get everyone in the spirit of this weekends Festivities.This weeks match comes from Pro Wrestling NOAH. Their Top Junior Weight Division wrestlers take on the Top Students from The Dragon Gate Promotion.Also a Special Bonus clip from ECW's first PPV where 6 Men from Michinoku Pro (New To The U.S. at the time) displayed their talents for the first time and captured many fans for life.Enjoy!

Now A Gang Of 4

GURU Passes

(July 17, 1966 – April 19, 2010)


I hate to post another passing, but Keith Elam AKA GURU, one half of Gang Starr, lost his bout with cancer yesterday.

To hip hop lovers, he was a legend.
To gamers, he was the voice of 8-Ball in GTA3.

Prayers go out to his Family.

Highschool Of The Dead Anime

Fan service and Zombies. Yay!

The anime adaptation of Daisuke Sato's Manga of the same name premiers on Japanese TV this July. Madhouse is the studio behind the animation.

My Favorite Video Game Music: Genesis Edition

The Sega Genesis. I didn't get one of my own until way later, and when I finally did, a year later our house was robbed and the crooks took off with my SNES and Genesis. Not to mention all the games for both systems. And oh yeah, my Super Gameboy and all my Gameboy games. "Sigh"...so is life.

So my brief time with my own Genesis and the time I had spent with others, has left me with quite a few fond memories of the game music.
Well, there is that and the fact that Sega likes to port their old games over and over again.
And now the best blips and beeps of The Sega Genesis.

REVENGE!!!!

I know it is once in a while we get a good revenge story, which is fine by me cause well if it's one thing you don't wanna overkill is probably the best kind of story you can get. As a writer I find a Revenge story is almost theraputic cause it helps you exercise the darkest corners of your mind, what you would hate to have happen to you or your loved ones and how you would deal with the S.O.B's who wronged you. Though I have come across some pretty brutal stories in my time and now I am here to share them with you. Though I will not number these cause well it is difficult for me to put one over the other. Some You Will Know And Some You Will Want To Know.

GET CARTER



Micheal Caine is Carter, A Professional Killer who receives word that his Brother has been Murdered. Once he steps off the train home all Hell breaks loose. Now he has the whole London Underground after him before he gets answers. To Hell with Stallone's crap remake, this is The Real Carter A Hero that is a Villain.

DEATH RIDES A HORSE



Aside from Once Upon A Time In The West, this is my all time favorite Revenge Western. John Phillip Law plays a man haunted by the night a group of outlaws came in and massacred his family, he remembers each hooligan by a trait they have (Scar, Tattoo, Locket, ect.) 15 years go by and he shows that he is a master with a 6-Shooter, As another bit of the story Lee Van Cleef plays a Prisoner just released and seems to have a past with the same gang only his vendetta is from an act of betrayal. The Paths of the two men cross and it is an unspoken and un-mutual partnership as the are on the trail of the Ruthless Criminals.


ROLLING THUNDER



This movie is dubbed as Tarantino's Favorite Revenge Movie. I can clearly see why, William Devane plays Lt. Charles T. Raine a Vietnam Vet who returns home to Texas after being held prisoner in a POW Camp.But nothing is all Parades and Handshakes for Raine, his Wife reveals that she has been with another man and wants to marry him, Society seems so different to him but the only thing that seems to keep Charles going is his Son, although they hardly know each other they seem to want to get in the process of being close as a Father and Son.As a gift for his service Lt. Raine is awarded a bag full of Silver Dollars, the event is televised and is seen all over Texas even by a group of heartless bastards who surprise the good Lt. by invading his home and going through every measure to get the money even sticking Raine's hand in a Garbage disposal. Charle's Son can't stand to see his Daddy hurt and grabs the money for the Crooks but they oblige him with a bullet.Left in the Hospital and Visited by fellow vet friend (played by a very young Tommy Lee Jones). The Soldiers set out to find the men who took Charles' Life from him and more importantly, took his Son.

DUDES



A Forgotten Classic, I remember loving this movie as a kid, I will find it on DVD. 3 Punk Rockers are on the road from New York to LA but when they stop in the middle of a Hick town they find themselves hassled by some Good Ole' Boys. One of the Punkers is murdered (victim played by Red Hot Chili Peppers Bass Player FLEA) and so his two Friends Grant (Jon Cryer) and Biscuit (Daniel Roebuck) are on the road after the hicks who killed their Coffee Mug Jacket wearing Buddy (Seriously an Amazing jacket and movie you have to see)


This could be the start of another segment I call "Today's Revenge", I will try to not mention obvious ones too much but come on, they are great for a reason.By far my favorite type of story that I would love to see another one done properly in America, cause everywhere else has it down right. But I will cover that in the next edition

My Favorite Video Game Music: 8-Bit Era

Oh the days of my youth.
In a way I have no regrets about never wanting to go outside and play all that much. Of course, I did go out quite a bit before "She" came into my life...
...good ole NES.

Video games in the NES era aren't all brightly colored sprites and princess saving. It takes a lot of talented people to put together a video game. In honor of the men and women who composed the sounds of my childhood, here I'm posting my favorite NES music of the 8-Bit era.
Enjoy!

SATURDAY'S BADASS: PAUL KERSEY

Paul Kersey IS BADASS! He WAS The Vigilante, Many would say this is the career defining role for Charles Bronson, I say this was a huge point of his resume of bad ass roles, for he was an amazing actor and one of my biggest heroes. From part 1-3 it basically is an entire story being told (Loosely based from the Brian Garfield Novels Death Wish and Death Sentence), from origin to finish (I don't really count 4 and 5). But This Story alone makes you say, "Golly What A Badass!"

Paul Kersey was a simple man,Successful Architect, A Loving Father, And Wonderful Husband living in the dangerous times of New York City.Just another everyday Joe trying to make it in the big city, until one day while walking back from the grocery store, Paul's wife and Daughter are brutally attacked by a group of Punks, leaving Paul's daughter raped and wife Dead.The Police had no clues, no witness' willing to talk and as a result No Care for the Kersey Case.This seemed to fuel Paul's fire for justice but in HIS own way.

After Returning from a trip to Arizona he was given a gift, a .32 caliber nickel plated Colt Police Positive Revolver.This would be the tool he needed to carry out his wish...His DEATH WISH (Electric Drums)



Though his first time as a Vigilante Kersey did not catch the crooks who torn his family apart. Paul was later captured by the police but was ordered to move away from New York instead of being arrested for worry that the press would have a field day with even more Vigilante's then they could handle.

8 years later we see Kersey has moved on to Los Angeles, California where he has a new love in his life and is still trying to get his daughter back on the mental track from the past attack that has left her mute and semi responsive.After a confrontation with a group of thugs who steal Kersey's wallet, Paul drops off his daughter at his house so she can stay with the maid, but sadly lightening struck twice as the punks found Kersey's home and did twice as much damage as the last gang years ago. But this time Paul's daughter was not so lucky.

Paul knew right away it was time to do what he was once known for. Now armed with a Beretta model 85, Our Unfortunate Hero wandered the streets of LA looking for the scum who left him alone in this world and Man did he give them a piece of his mind.



Although Death Wish 3 was not as Deep in character as the previous 2, it was still pretty decent, so I am just gonna show you the kills cause well that is pretty much what it was all about, the body count is amazingly doubled and features probably the best way to kill a Jake Busey Clone. Enjoy!



Wow a lot of Stair falls and Railing kills, guess a .475 Wildey Magnum and a Browning M1919 machine gun will do that to ya. But whichever you may prefer out of these movie 1 thing can be sure. PAUL KERSEY IS A BADASS!

Wrestle and Romance, and later Wrestle Association R, was a professional wrestling promotion founded and run by Genichiro Tenryu as the successor to Super World of Sports, and which lasted from 1992 to 2000.This Promotion showcased a lot of up and coming talent which we have grown to know and love over the years. Many great faces like Chris Jericho, Ultimo Dragon, Lance Storm, Rey Mysterio Jr, Psichosis are just a few of the super amazing talent that has graced the squared battlefield of this late late great promotion.Today I am gonna show you some matches which back then and now still blow me away and reminds me of the days where you had to find a tape trader to see this spectacle of high flying action and say to yourself "I wanna do that". Enjoy!

I Like Lists: 10 Of My Favorite Horror Films...for now

Have you ever watched a movie that freaks you out for reasons that even you cannot fully understand? Maybe it's the atmosphere of the film? Perhaps it's the music? The lighting maybe? Whatever it may be it definitely leaves even the most hardcore of Horror enthusiasts with a feeling of unease. That to me, is what makes a Horror film.

I have compiled a short list of the top 10 movies that even I think twice about watching alone at night.

"It's like a death...a death in the family"

(January 4, 1962 – April 14, 2010)


Hand me a bass. Chances are I will play you the opening to "Black No.1". Hell, I'll even sing it and everything. It comes natural and 99.9% of the time it never fails, I will play it.

When I heard this morning of the possibility that Peter Steele passed away, I immediately dismissed it as another one of his sick jokes. After all, no media outlet that covered the "rumor" even had the balls to post it as fact. He has all played us for fools before. When it sunk in that it might actually not be a hoax, I got a little sick to my stomach. When I found out that news of his passing was in fact true, I felt as if a part of my teenage years had passed away with him.
Peter Steele was more than just another singer from a band that I liked.

I wanted to be him.

ABUNAI !!!!!!!!!

I have been involved with wrestling for almost 10 years now and I am glad to say that the fan in me has not died. I am still a firm believer in Good VS Evil so I am posting a match early today from one of my favorite Japanese Promotions from the 90's Michinoku Pro. In the days of DX in the states Japan had their own version (if you ask me a much more Superior Stable) Known to the American's as Club Kamikaze which would later go by their real name Kaientai (Kaientai DX in Japan). They were the top heel faction in Michinoku Pro slowly taking it over with their Evil ways, it was up to the faces of Michinoku Pro to stop them at one of their biggest shows in an elimination match (Be sure to pay attention and get into the drama with the crowd). Sit Back and Enjoy some Amazing Stuff Way Ahead Of It's Time.

Kaientai DX vs Gran Hamada Super Delfin Tiger Mask IV Gran Naniwa Masato Yakushiji

Found this cool tribute on YouTube posted and made by Devinerat.

Gantz Teaser Trailer

A live action version of the Manga/Anime, Gantz, is in the works and scheduled for a 2011 release in Japan.
Here is the first teaser trailer:

Nujabes

Jun Seba was an amazing artist. On February 26 of this year the artist known as Nujabes was killed in a car crash near the Shuto Expressway in Shibuya.
Known mostly for his music on "Samurai Champloo", Jun Seba had an amazing ear for mixing down-tempo hip hop beats with jazz.
Upon learning of his tragic demise, I have been seeking out his music. Posted here are just some of his non Samurai Champloo stylings that I have found on Youtube.

NOBODY does it BETTER!

It is a shame that my first post of matches is due to a wrestler who had recently passed away for I wish it was due simply for admiration only and not in Memory but nonetheless Chris Kanyon was an amazing wrestler who should never be forgotten or overlooked for any reason, His talents would shine in this tag match from WCW as Kanyon and Diamond Dallas Page take on Perry Saturn and Chris Benoit as well as this highlight video. You will not be forgotten by true fans Mr.Kanyon I am happy to say I have met this man at a PWG show and he was a man worth respecting because he made you feel like you were on the same level as him.

"Who Better?"
