Hey party people, Haaris here. Today may have been the most hyped solar eclipse in the history of dragons eating the sun (I could have made a Norse reference, but I am Asian). Last night I dropped another legendary New Noize playlist like I do every Sunday.

I kicked off the show with new UNKLE and I must say the album itself sounds very cinematic. It also could have even the fact that I listened to the new UNKLE before watching Game of Thrones.

I finally got to play Japanese Breakfast’s “Road Head” and if you haven’t check out the music video, well here it is:

The surprise of the week has to be the new Cloakroom album. I popped it into the home stereo and was blown away. Its pretty fantastic, if you are a fan Jesu, Russian Circles or Boris, definitely  check out Cloakroom.

In other media its gonna be a quite week when it comes to video games. I completed Hellbalde and what a ride! Ninja Theory hit a homer on this gem. Graphics, gameplay, story and the hellish audio (it is a must you play this with a headset) made Hellblade an experience that I will share with anyone willing to listen. I’m gonna be finishing up some of games in my backlog until Absolver comes out next week. Then, dudring the 1st last week of September all things will shut down as DESTINY 2 is finally out! If anyone out there likes to game on the PS4 hit me up, my handle is MenglerMeng. 

Peace out until next Sunday.

New Noize all up in your business. This weekend reality set in and I am just amazed at whats going on here in the good ol USA. Goating North Korea into a nuclear war and empowered white supremacists in Virginia have me pretty blue, but at least Game of Thrones and New Noize exists. 

Despite the stress of the world events I personally found solace in one of the best gatherings I have been to this year. I’m talking about my music programmer, DJ extraordinaire and one of my great friends Mr Dave Hanacek got hitched this past Saturday. As bummed out as I was with all thats going on, Saturday night showed that when friends and family come together everything else is just noise. I was also seated at the Radiohead table, it was pretty rockstar. Fellow DJs Phat J & Ricky Biggs were in the house and whenever the radio fam hangs power levels exceed 9000. 

Lets talk New Noise. This Sunday I started on the metal side of things and smoothed out as the hour progressed.

At the top of the second hour I dropped some music from the Dead Cells soundtrack, an indie game I DESPERATELY want to be ported onto the PS4 (and the vita LOLz). Currently Dead Cells is available on Steam and from the videos I have watched it looks like a freaking good time. I also circled back to music from Tokyo 42 as this game is finally coming out this Tuesday August 15th on the Playstation. If the game is half as good as this soundtrack then I will be a happy camper. Want to watch me play? Follow me on my youtube page: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCo65Q8fi_Os7jQOlu4OiyqQ

See ya next Sunday.

New Noize playlist coming at ya once again! A lot of new stuff to get into as per the norm. My surprise of the week has to be that full length by the Mosquitos, its like a cool drink on a humid night filled with fire flies and starry night skies, definitely worth a listen. As is everything else on this weeks playlist. 

OH and I met Raekwon backstage at his SoHo set here in SB. IF you are in the Santa Barbara area tomorrow night I will be checking out Chastity Belt at Velvet Jones, see you there? 

Tomorrow I will be streaming Hellblade: Senua's Sacrifice on the PS4. You can catch it via Youtube, follow me on twitter for when its going down. So HYPED Ninja Theory always brings the heat when it comes to games so I am expectations are HIGH on this one.

See ya next Sunday Y’all.

VIVA LA FIESTA!!!! For those not in the know on all things Santa Barbara, which is the majority of you, its Feista time! What is Fiesta? Its a celebration “of the American Indian, Spanish, Mexican, and early American settlers that comprise the rich cultural heritage of Santa Barbara”. Its full of amazing foods, mariachi music, dolled up ladies doing cultural dances, confetti eggs and mad beers yo. Its also when tourist and locals covey on this little beach town and over run us with hiked up cover charges, high uber/cab rates and so much trash. It can be a nightmare or a dream depending on your location and how hungover you are.

What are my plans for Fiesta week here in SB? So many tacos will be consumed, Gojira down in Ventura Theater tomorrow and Raekwon at Soho this Friday. I also have a wedding this Saturday so my social cup overfloweth with awesomeness. 

And YES there was a New Noize as there is every Sunday. Am I worried about Game of Thrones and inevitable NFL season taking my precious audience? NOPE, New Noizers are dictated fans that rule and I love all 3 of em.

This week brought a good mix of new singles as well as diving deep into some full lengths. Had to kick off the show with a jamming track by Mister Heavenly and got deep on the New Cage the Elephant but the surprise track from hour 1 came from a band called “The Kickback”. Listen to “False Jeopardy” and tell me you don’t like it and I will tell you flat to your face that you are a lair. Another groovy track that is in constant rotation on the personal iPod (yes I still use my iPod and its the greatest piece of gear I have owned for the past 10 years or so) is KAYE “Cheshire Kitten”.

Kicked off hour 2 with new Chelsea Wolfe and MAN I need this new record in my life. Hopefully the new album sounds like the 2 singles she has released. Other shining singles new to New Noize that you should immediately listen to is Purity Ring, Protomartyr and METZ. I FINALLY got the full length from Dead Cross (thanks ipecac) and the mad audio scientist known as Mike Patton has done it again. Dead Cross features Dave Lombardo (ex-Slayer, Misfits, Suicidal Tendencies), Justin Pearson (The Locust) and Michael Crain (Retox, Festival of Dead Dear). If your a fan of Mr. Bungle or music in general go for a ride with Dead Cross.

Until next Sunday my peoples.
