So I missed posting this one when it first came out, truth be told my heads just been somewhere else lately. Urthboy is bringing a really good minimal internet marketing campaign to his new album, the album Spitshine but the suspense has been building for months. Part of his little “campaign” was some YouTube videos that spends a few days with Urthy & crew as they record the Spitshine album old school. Recording studios are so 1990, you can make killer recordings in a better environment, Urthboy prooves that here.  Check it below.

The Herd are out on tour for the last time in 2009, unfortunately it looks like they’re only hitting a very minor selection of the east coast.  Peep the video below to get a bit of a vibe for The Herd, if you’ve never seen them before, make sure you go check the shows.  This time they’re being joined by Koolism and you can catch them at the following places:

• 24 Jul @ Prince of Wales – MELBOURNE
• 25 Jul @ Manning Bar – SYDNEY
• 31 Jul @ The Zoo – BRISBANE
• 5 Aug @ Station Resort – JINDABYNE
• 7 Aug @ The Brewery – MAITLAND
