Mary Anne Hobbs Does LA

Naughty boys, not like that. Interesting video-- about a month old, so still relatively fresh-- about the West Coast and its role in electronic music. Plenty of talk about Flying Lotus, and a smattering of HudMo (aka Hudson Mohawke aka if you don't recognize that name dig through the archives you butthole).

EXCELSIOR!

The oral culture of Puff Chats has learned to transcribe itself, marking the solemn moment when our simple podcast has climbed into the ironclad juggernaut of societal progress. We shall careen wildly into the future, armed with this written knowledge of our past!

Tremble, O Great Empires of the world, for our deeds will be mighty and dreadful beyond all reckoning!

(I've added tracklists for all of our past episodes, and will publish them with all of our forthcoming episodes as well. Poke around the archives and reminisce. Laugh again. Love again. Enjoy!)

Episode XIV: In Memoriam

It is with heavy heart that I must dedicate this very special episode of Puff Chats to Some Damn Coyote, who I-- the Freshest of Cheddars-- mercilessly ran down on the 580 Freeway just south of Tracy, California on February 27, in the Year of Our Lord 2009.

For the record Some Damn Coyote, your mangy little body did a real number on the radiator of my car. But you can't spell "magnanimity" without "Cheez" (humor me, I'm real short on ideas here), so this episode goes out to you anyway, you rascally little mongrel. Hope Coyote Heaven is full of fat, lazy rabbits and somewhat less busy freeways that you can jump onto as suddenly as you'd like.

Only tepidly remorseful,
Webmaster Cheez

Autumnal bliss

I stumbled upon the perfect song for us magnificent bastards who have the luxury of warm and sunny days straight through the first couple weeks of Autumn:



It captures the tone of the season so well: It's gorgeous outside and we know it. But don't worry, we also know it won't last forever.

Incidentally, yeah I know that the grainy Super 8 footage is a touch too precocious. But with such a silky melody and sweet melodies, how can you stay mad at the video?

P.S. Not a one-hit wonder:

Episode IX: Field Research

Before we get to Episode 9, I thought I'd present a short summary of some fascinating data I collected on a recent anthropological expedition. This is just some of the shit out there that's way suckier than this blog which will appear when you search for "Puff Chats" on Google:

Exhibit A: Interstitial Lung Disease
"About Huff n Puff Chat
Welcome to Huff'N Puff Interstitial Lung Disease Forum."

Exhibit B: Puff-sleeved Tees
"Le Chat Puff-sleeved Tee - Aqua
Le Chat Puff-sleeved Tee - Aqua. by Deadworry. #020dea0ds. $18.00 Meow! So adorable! A cute vintage black kitty image is silk-screened onto this cute aqua..."

Exhibit C: Total gibberish
"January 2003: Herium* Chat Puffs - Perishable Press
puffy puffer dimsum dive in? mother puffer huffin and uh puufinn puff puff gassy puffs gas ape gass man total gass melt your eyeballsss herium.**"

Fascinating! Anyway, Episode 9. Have at it!

XOXOXO,
Cheez

*Yes, Ryan. They replaced the L in "helium" with an R. Yes, they're probably Asian. You'd better not be laughing, or I'm gonna fuck you up.
**Yeah. Twice. Seriously, I'll fuck you right up.

Episode VII: The Prodigal Podcast Returns

Hi there. We're Puff Chats. You might remember us from such panty-dropping podcast episodes as Episode 6, or our multiple award winning party night, Rerax Fridays at Senor Fish. But more than likely, you're here for that handsome rapscallion, Young Cheez. And who am I to refuse my adoring public?

Whatever your reasons, it is my distinct pleasure to finally post up the new episode of Puff Chats that I know you've all been dying to hear.

Luv,
Cheezy F. Baby
