BOOZE AND SMOKES
The City of Hamilton recently opened it's second skateboard park and it wouldn't have been possible without the grind of everyday skaters like the ones in this video. The second installment by Hamilton's own ISAL Productions is titled Booze and Smokes and features local skaters enjoying the fruits of their labour. Skateboarding has found the hearts of many and I'm sure there will be more ISAL videos like this in the future. You can catch more great videos at http://www.isalproductions.blogspot.com/ Enjoy the ride!

The Water
The Water is a film that explores the past, present, and future of a family over 24 hours. Set in the middle of a cold beautiful winter it explores the complex and intimate dynamic between loved ones and loss with regret and anticipation. The Water's story, told like a visual poem unfolds in silence, in the faces of the characters and in the beauty of music, leaving questions about death, life and love. I hope you take the time to watch and enjoy this special presentation.

Common
The Light is the Grammy-nominated second single off Common's 2000 album Like Water for Chocolate. It is produced by Jay Dee and features keyboards by James Poyser. Framed as a love letter, it is a confession of Common's love for a woman whom many believe to have been his girlfriend at the time, Erykah Badu. Notice the "recognizable sensual delights" including a homemade Minnie Ripperton cassette, a mango, a pink lava lamp and a deeply green water-beaded leaf. Always a great track for any mood!

Background Props
In this Japanese gang photograph, you can't help but notice the old guy in the back standing shirtless like a champion. Mr.Miyagi : 1 Japanese Girl Gang : 0
This butt's for you! These young ladies had such radiant smiles, the glass in the background..cracked? Buttweiser: 1 Church Girls: 0
This guy must have stubbed his toe because he's really got a genuine look on his face. Maybe it's just the rush that comes with ruining a coveted shot like this. Background props is and always will be a popular prank. Sorry ladies! Big Toe: 1 Blondies: 0
Yes We Can
After nearly a decade in the game of smoke, this rainy April day seems like just another day in the week to be quite honest. That being said, it is the most recognised day of marijuana love worldwide and it deserves a righteous blog applause. So I'm going to roll it out to you plain and simple. All these songs can be enjoyed while thinking of weed, dreaming of weed, looking for weed, smelling weed or even just straight up smokin' that green spinach. So grab your bong, pipe, ziggies and your twiggies because this counter culture holiday starts at 4:20 and ends when you can't find the door. Yes we can!

MP3: Jim Guthrie-Now, More Than Ever -->http://www17.zippyshare.com/v/97139707/file.html
And to finish it all off, a little Joe Cocker from one of my all time favourite tv shows The Wonder Years. The song was originally done by The beatles but was dramatically re-done by Mr.Cocker in 1968. I get high with a little help from my friends, do you? Bon nuit from Hearts of Gold.

Phoenix Desires
Now that we've got the ball rolling, it's time to get down to business. Friday's always been my girl and I know alot of people out there would agree when I say there's no better way to kick off a weekend than with a little sunshine and some great tunes. Phoenix just recently released their fourth-coming album entitled 'Wolfgang Amedeus' and I must say, the album is pure bliss! Hailing from Versailles, France, the band started during their childhood and blossomed in a culture that gave life to bands such as Air and Daft Punk. The album was recorded in Paris by Cassius's Philippe Zdar who co-produced and mixed the album. Go out and pick this one up folks! The start to finish freshness will get you on the right path this weekend. I promise!

Johnny Jewel, who is the instrument-playing part of Glass Candy, has been getting some serious blog love with his new ep and I'm sure a little taste will have you hooked on Desire. His outstanding talent for making beats and grooves really shine through on his new project and I think it's a nice change of pace from 'Beatbox'-Glass Candy's most recognized album to date. Italo disco-noir at it's finest perhaps? You be the judge!
