snacktime - modo - stocking stuffer

Modo & Semidubs link up again for a different take on a Christmas inspired song.  Sampling "It's beginning to Look a Lot Like Christmas" by Bing Crosby, Stocking Stuffer compiles elements of trap style.
 
Sean “Modo” Jones is a rapper whose eclectic lyrical content and production sets him apart from his peers. Branching out and swerving lanes is far from taboo in Modo’s world, in fact it is just part of the process. His method of utilizing multiple genres to acquiesce the expansion of his expression is the sign of a true artist. Modo’s engineering talents allow him to create every aspect of his music and shows the true skill level and dedication to his craft. His goal of leaving a positive impact and helping to further the genre has led him to constitute new opportunities for not only himself but other artists as well.

snacktime - abort? (y/[n]) - "let 'em do it again, larry"

just yesterday, friend of the show Abort? (Y/[N]) dropped this little gem over on their bandcamp page.  it's the aphex twin / alice in chains / three six mafia / savage garden / big lebowski / roblox mashup that none of us knew we needed.  it tickled every ridiculous bone in our ridiculous skeletons though, so we are sharing it with you ridiculous people.
 
Go dig the rest of their creations at:
abortyesno.bandcamp.com
 
also, if you have not yet checked out our sprawling two hour hallucinogenic tenth anniversary opus EPISODE 50, then we have to wonder what other questionable choices you are making with your life.  remedy that this weekend, it will make you whole.

*bill tucker "pine shruggin" taken from "punk fills / sad bad mittens lp", original version from the album "mythological creatures" (which I thiiiiiink is out of print) can be found in paradoxal pterodactyl episode 8
 
*sergio bandera was the pseudonym used by mark pirro for the music created for the film "a polish vampire in burbank", presumably because he already had his name listed as the screenwriter, director, and star.  this cut is davelybob's favorite film music of all time, used by the gracious permission of pirromount pictures.  thanks mark!
 
well, gosh; i don't even know what to say.  this journey has been incredibly stupendous, to say the least.  my dearest brother, davelybob, thank you for jumping into the void with me!  this has become so much more than i imagined.  thank you to all the core members, as well as all of the extended members of the paradoxal pterodactyl family!!  this isn't anything without every one of you!  and thanks to everyone who was totally cool with us sampling them; i'm looking at you, geo.  thank you for listening and thank you for being alive!  peace and love, chad
 
davelybob would like to thank anyone who has ever listened to the podcast, all the fine people and projects that have lent us their audio, all the acts and attendees at 43 installments of way out weirdo wednesday and countless other shows booked under the paradoxal pterodactyl umbrella, all weirdos and co-conspirators everywhere, and most especially my fellow curators chad, brad, and husky sombrero, for making the last 10 years of paradoxal pterodactyl so incredibly fun and exciting, and the artistic achievement i am most proud of.  i love you guys.  chad, you had a really great idea brother.  onward!
THE FUTURE:paradoxal pterodactyl, a periodical podcast (pronounced "puh-puh-puh-puh)- like cicadas, sometimes we slumber, but until the grid fails and takes this series of tubes with it, and packs of cannibals roam the overgrown streets, this podcast persists. and our archives are more massive than ever.
observant pterodactyl spotters may have encountered pp stickers in the wild of late, we can confirm such occurrences, and would like the public to prepare for further merchandise migrations through these areas sometime in the next few seasons.
now that way out weirdo wednesday has officially been laid to rest (condolences if this is news to you) and davelybob has retired from 99% of booking activities, our paradoxal powers shall push our pterodactyl purview into perpendicular production potentialities. your curator pals will be working with some of our favorite artists and sometime next year you should see the first fruits of these labors in the launch of our new digital and cd-r label. fucking SNAP, you heard us.
also it would appear there is a mysterious new shadowy figure on the horizon... a new curator? GASP!
