Sleigh Bells ‘Infinity Guitars’ Christmas is coming, and if the name Sleigh Bells is conjuring up saccharinely festive images of assorted reindeer, chestnuts roasting on an open fire, carol services and liberally strung tinsel, you’re about to be horribly mistaken.

I was probably around 13 or 14 when Marvin Gaye's life was ended by the very man that contributed to his existence. At the time the only song I truly appreciated was his 1981 hit Sexual Healing. Of course as an eleven year old, I didn't fully understand what the song was talking about. But I loved watching him sing it and his voice was like sweet nectar to my ears. After graduating high school and...

The internet has made our world so much smaller than it really is. Before I started WYDU, I spent a lot of time on the Cocaine Blunts forums, where a bunch of like minded cats gathered to trade obscure, out of print, hip hop that most normal people would have no clue even existed. It was here that I met "Fritz The Cat" aka Ryan Somers. I don't even remember his user name on there, but we...
