I...

...have a lot to say about my past few days...but I will elaborate later today, promise! I have some stuff to do during the day, like hit the gym...been 4 days since I've been able to, so I can't wait! Anyway, I really do have A LOT to say, so I'll be posting a lengthy update or 2 later for sure. Peace and love.

Making the effort peeps...

What up! I'm consciously making an effort to stay up on the bloggin' tip...well, more importantly, I wanna stay current and relative to what's going on today, with me and in general. So yea, I'm gonna try my best to post something everyday, or at least a few times a week. I don't wanna force blog either, ya know? The idea is to blog about shit that's on your mind...whether it's current events, interests, arts, etc. Anyway, for now, I'll leave y'all with this...probably the hottest cypher I've ever seen, in today's world at least. It was shown on Tuesday nite, on the 2009 BET Hip Hop Awards. There were a few cyphers shown, but this one features Mos Def, Black Thought (of The Roots), and Eminem. The shit had me outta my chair and hyped up. THIS is what hip hop is about...shame how it's become all about swag and catchy dance moves, huh? Enjoy.

Sleep is overrated...sometimes...

Been trying to post more often, hopefully someone's noticed...or not, whatev. Anyway, I'll be in Orlando this weekend for a wedding...2 of my peeps are getting married (to each other, obviously), and it should be a good time overall.

Moving on, I've purposely avoided blogging about the Taylor vs. Ye situation, but I will post something this week, maybe...we'll see...regardless, I'm a fan of him, and I'm biased! Been bumpin' that 808's album all week! Love that shit!

Off to get some sleep now, its 5:53am! WTF! Peace and love.

So I got to watch Inglourious Basterds again, and yea, that is truly a great film. Some of Quentin's best work, really...but the actors are all great too, especially Brad Pitt. Dude is hilarious in it! Oh, and Eli Roth as "the bear jew" is fuckin great too. I love the fact that all the actors are almost all foreign, so they actually speak the languages in the film. I think that makes a huge impact on making a great film.

Anyway, still have yet to see District 9 though, so maybe that'll happen sometime this week...we'll see I guess. Been working on a lot of InfiniGlo related stuff like music (duh), logos, videos, etc...so I'm excited as much as I am frustrated...mainly because I'm not ill with the PhotoShop skills like I want to be...so yea, making shit happen on there how I want it, isn't the easiest thing for me. Nonetheless, I do my best to fuck with the programs enough to at least learn the basics. I have the potential artistically for visual shit, but being that I'm not familiar with those wonderful programs, I have to kinda just half-ass logos, etc, until I have someone that can either recreate what I want, or at least clean it up. I can take some dope pics with a regular camera, or draw up some cool shit, but can't for the life of me translate that into the digital visual stuff...oh, but I will! Little by little! Moving on...

I been listening to the Blackout 2 album from Red & Meth, and I gotta say, it's no 5-mic classic, but it's worth a listen for the most part. It's what you'd usually expect from them, so it is what it is, feel me? I'm not done with the album yet, only half-way, but I've like it so far...I'll recap later on. I think I'm gonna start posting up critiques of music and films soon. I've been thinking about it for some time, but never actually do it...but! I figure, since blogs about shit can help make a presence for a blogger, then fuck it, why not talk some shit (good and/or bad) about movies and music, right? (writing this as I'm bobbin' my head to "How Bout Dat" from the Blackout 2 album...good shit.)

Ok to be continued as usual...be sure to check out the InfiniGlo Blog too. There's gonna be a lot of updates coming soon...like very soon...so stay tuned y'all! Peace and love.

Monday, August 24, 2009

I think I may watch the "Basterds" once again...I don't mind, but I want to see District 9 asap too! Oh well, can't say no to a movie by Quentin, right? In the meantime, another quick update...there's been a lot of hard work going on within the InfiniGlo camp, so stay tuned for a ton of new tracks, mixes, videos, etc coming soon! I'm excited, are you??? Anyway, I keep saying I'm gonna start doing vlogs so I don't have to type, but I never get around to it. I will eventually, or at least once in a while, promise! That's all for now peeps, peace and love.

Because it's been a while...

I know I know, I always say in my previous posts that I'm gonna update more often, and I totally mean to...but then life happens, and yea, been real busy since my last post. Mostly due to workin' A LOT more at work, but no complaints on that cuz I need the money. I work for a great company, where I get to have fun for the most part and be a part of exciting events and whatnot. Most recently, the iPhone 3GS launch. I got to work the overnite shift prior to the launch, and it was pretty cool. Soooo much detail goes into putting an Apple Store together, especially for a new product. When I look at my store now, I'm like, "wow, I put that together!" or "I helped put that there", etc.

Anyway, aside from work-related business, I've been workin' hard on my music as well. It's been a bit difficult to get as much done as we used to get done, as we've both been workin' a lot to pay off some debts. But I got to spin at The Womb last month, which was pretty cool. I should be doing that again soon, so I'll keep y'all posted. Oh! We're also trying to get booked for this lounge in mid-town, so keep ya posted on that too! We hadn't spun together for like 3 weeks or so, but we threw down a DOPE 3-hr set on Friday at the studio...so we felt great after that, as it seemed we hadn't stop practicing. Let's see what else???

Oh yea, I got to hang with some old friends for a bday party, so that was fun. Hadn't seen or hung with some of those peeps since like high school! Speaking of which, one of those friends is a fellow blogger, and has some pretty interesting info fo yo ass...so yea, check out karla-la-eats.blogspot.com for some great info/advice/opinions on food and whatnot. Gonna add her to my "links" list now too.

Back to the music talk though...one of my groups/projects is about to drop an EP on iTunes, but dont' worry, I'll make a HUGE deal about that when it comes....so you won't miss out! We're also planning to shoot a video for 2 of the tracks on that EP...one will be stop-motion-ish, the other will (hopefully) be animated. These types of videos take more time obviously, so be patient! We have a bunch of projects due for this summer, for all of our musical identities, which if you don't know about, ask me in person sometime, cuz it's hard to explain our ideas and concepts and alter egos via the internet...and we kinda don't plan to talk much about that anyway lol. So on that note, I go by many names, but for this blog, y'all know me as Gianni or Morelli...signin' off...peace and love.

P.S. I'm thinkin' of switching to vlogs from now on, just cuz I'm too lazy to type sometimes.

Morelli's back...though I never really left!

Soooo....yea I know, I always say I'm gonna start blogging more often, but it's always like a month between blog posts. Well, this time around, I think I'll stick to it because there's A LOT coming my way, and I'm really excited about it!

For starters, my job's going great, and it's looking like it may get more greater (I know it's incorrect grammer, duh!). I love my job, even through it's ups and downs, I wouldn't want to work anywhere else honestly.

Ok, moving on...my real and true passion in life is music, if y'all didn't already know that, now you do! I have several projects going on, and it looks like they're finally gonna get somewhere. It's pretty exciting, but a lil bit scary, not gonna lie. Scary because it's like, OH SHIT, WE MIGHT ACTUALLY MAKE IT!, type of scary, ya know? Anyway, like I said, I'll be blogging more often because I'll be (over)promoting all my music stuff for everyone to go check out/download/buy from iTunes. I thank everyone for their support in advance too, and if you've never supported, we're bout to make you feel stupid! Ha.

Besides all that great stuff, there's been some rough times here and there with family and friends and whatnot, but fuck it, I try to stay positive and have positivity around me. If you're negative about something, I'm usually like straight up, get over it and man up or w/e...which tends to get me into beef with peeps, but again, fuck it...it is what it is. I think I'm done for now because I have plenty to do today, on my like 2nd or 3rd Sunday off in months...gotta stay productive, ya know. Peace and love from yours truly.

Uh oh, is ya boy's learning some text edit skills???

Well perhaps a lil bit. Peep the new logo! It might not be as cool as other peeps' logos, but whatever, I'm no pro at PhotoShop or anything! I think it's dope for my first shot at it though, so I hope y'all dig it. You can probably expect more where that came from...just gettin' my feet wet! Peace and love.

Updates and whatnot...

So yea, it's been a minute since my last post, but I've been busy and lost in my list of things to do. I was mainly consumed by the cleaning up/rearranging of my home studio, but I did have the chance to get out of the house a bit here and there, thankfully.

Here's a quick recap of the past few weeks...sorta...

I have been frustrated as fuhhh with work stuff, life stuff, family stuff, etc...but trying my best to deal with/accept it all as best as possible. I have had a couple of those epiphanic moments...where I've realized a lot about a lot, if that makes any sense. Anyway, long story short, it made me lose focus for a sec, but I quickly recovered back into focus of everything that is truly important for me to focus on at the moment...and in the future for that matter. It's funny how things can change so quick sometimes, and quite the opposite other times...but alas, that's life, as they say...whoever "they" are.

I've been blessed with getting to know some really cool peeps lately too (shouts to my girls from RNDM and some of my peeps from work), which is cool and refreshing. I haven't partied as much as usual lately, but it's all good. Sometimes I just have to accept that too...like hanging out with a friend and watching Vicky Cristina Barcelona tonite, getting home at a decent time for a change. Great movie by the way...Penelope's Oscar was well-deserved! And God bless Scarlett Johansson! Anyway, I think that was a bit of an ADD/rant moment, but fuck it, it's my blog right? I'm entitled to do that.

Oh, almost forgot!...if anyone's into knowing the latest celeb gossip, you MUST check out a brand new blog by my adopted little sister La Femme Fatale like asap! In her words..."READ IT, FOLLOW IT, LOVE IT!" Look out Perez and TMZ! Homegirl knows her shiet!!! Ok, that's about all I can think of for now, but I will be posting more frequently from now on (hopefully)...and the InfiniGlo blog is up and running, but is post-less at the moment, as I've been busy and haven't gotten around to posting anything yet. Oh!...the Winter Music Conference is right around the corner as well, and it will hopefully bring us some great opportunities. Stay tuned here and to my mobile blog, and of course, support the cause(s) via those links posted under the links section! Peace and Love.
