Trying to think of the funniest single shot that could have "leaked" for succession season 4 that would have made people mad. I like the shot of Logan getting chest compressions in an HBO psa about heart health.

The Tin Can Bros have launched a kickstarter to celebrate their 10 year anniversary with SEVEN new projects, and they need our help!

Read on to find out how:

This is Brian Rosenthal, Corey Lubowich and Joey Richter

You may know them from Team Starkid, or you may know them from their own group the Tin Can Brothers (creators of projects such as Spies Are Forever and the Solve it Squad), formed in 2014. To celebrate 10 years, they’re raising a goal of $200k in order to stage seven projects

They’re currently a week into their campaign and have raised almost $50k with 675 backers. But they still have a way to go! And to help, we need to spread the word

TINLIGHTENMENT PROMO SCHEDULE:

What is it?

A live comedy game show featuring Joey, Brian, Corey and special guests pitted against each other to win a debate. It gets silly!

How will I be able to see it?

Live shows in LA (and potentially other places!) throughout the year, digital tickets, and eventually some ‘episodes’ on youtube!

What can I share?

If you’ve been lucky enough to see past great debates on Patreon, talk about favourite topics and moments!

If you haven’t, share moments and clips from the first public great debate livestream happening on Thursday! (I think - if plans are changed then they’re doing a terrible job letting me help them)

You said you love skincare over makeup: me too! What's your favorite brands? :)

I have extremely sensitive skin that is prone to cystic acne due to my hormones being out of whack due to endometriosis, so I have to be very careful about the brands I use for either skincare OR makeup, and it took me a long time to realise that, and lean more into cultural beauty routines that take skincare over makeup (For example, Korean beauty or more traditionalist Swedish beauty, a la Ingrid Bergman, who famously never wore a stitch of makeup if she could help it and her skin was just that lovely that she didn’t have to). I’m also very aware of overt fragrances, stripping agents like alcohol (Baby Lauren was not; and thought drying out your skin equaled less acne; yikes), and any harsh additives. 

Sunscreen:

I’ve always taken sun care extremely seriously, as both my mother and my grandmother have had skin cancer before, so I’m most likely predisposed to having it. This has led to some unintentionally hilarious results of being the palest person in the world who plays beach volleyball both professionally (back in the day) and competitively (now, or before the COVID hit). I always wear long sleeves on the beach unless I have time to completely apply sunscreen, and am a snob when it comes to sunscreens as well. They can’t cause a breakout, leak into my eyes due to sweat, any of that good stuff. 

My sunscreen recommendations:

 (Note: And I literally get them from all over the world, so get ready, because I probably cover something available in your town/country. I’ve lived in Australasia, North America, and Europe, so I’ve pretty much covered a large part of the world in my travels xD)

Face:

Mychelle Pharmaceuticals SPF 28 in Coconut (Unfortunately only an American brand, but I literally get it shipped to a P.O. box near Canada so I can go across the line to get it. It’s that good. XD Doesn’t melt, dries quickly, unsure how it would look on darker skin than ghost white, but still doesn’t give me any sort of cast).

Innisfree Daily UV Protection Cream No Sebum: Literally a steal at twelve bucks, but DOES cause the dreaded white cast. Anti-acne and also settles down really well on the skin. I’m luckily pale enough that if I layer makeup over it, it usually doesn’t look as bad, but I’ve heard a lot of POC say they love the texture, but it gives them that ashy-white look (See below for some skincare brands I’ve heard are better for this for POC). 

Body:

Bioderma Photoderm SPF 50+ UVA and UVB Lait protection élevée: This is a really popular French sunscreen that doesn’t move and stays firm after you apply it and it dries down. It’s a high SPF quality, and I can find it in Canada, but I also obviously saw it in France when I was there as well. France is another country that really seems to follow the ‘If you have great skin you don’t really need makeup do you” train.

MooGoo Skincare (Generally and their sunscreen): This was my go to in Australia: I’d have to reapply it often because otherwise you would get burned, but Australia also has a gigantic hole in the ozone layer so it isn’t exactly helping itself. xD But it’s a local Aussie brand, it’s natural, and it’s great and relatively cheap (although you can order it worldwide I believe and they have a US based website if you’re in the states). I also love their leave in hair conditioner, as well as their self-tanner. They also send you great testers with it, and have great mineral-based makeup if you’re keen.

Coola SPF 30 Sunscreen Spray Pina Colada: This is my go to spray on for playing sports last summer. It’s natural, smells good, is expensive, but it lasted me an entire summer playing beach volleyball most days at the beach, and I still have some left over.

Some of my top other skincare recommendations I’d recommend otherwise would be:

My Current Routine:

- Dermalogica Special Cleansing Gel (everyday)

- Dermalogica Overnight Clearing Gel (everyday)

- Dermalogica Microdermabrasion (everyday)

- Mychelle Cosmetics: SPF 28 Coconut (everyday)

- Clinique Oil Control Gel with Uneven Skin Tone Pump (everyday)

- Lush Eye Cream (optional)

- Benton Aloe Vera Gel (optional if my skin is feeling dry)

- Bioderma Photoderm 50+ for my body sunscreen  (everyday)

(Note: I also use a micellar water to clear eye makeup if I use it, and occasionally the Thayers toner if I have it on hand, but it’s not essential to my routine, and I don’t use eye makeup that often).

Dermalogica:  Expensive as all hell, but it’s literally the only thing that I can get a ‘wash and go’ effect from. Their Special Cleansing Gel is the only face wash I’ve been able to use for more than three to four months without having to switch it up from my skin throwing it’s own mini revolution. xD The one thing I could say is that their Cleansing Gel LITERALLY lasts forever. I have a gigantic pump which is 88 dollars (YIKES), but it’s lasted me literally seven months without having to change products and buying usually amount in cheaper skincare, going to the dermatologist, or having to get further medication from my doctor for my skin (I take an antibiotic to keep my skin at bay as well). It’s literally worth the money of me searching and floundering about buying cheaper options that make my skin break out that progressively add up to the full amount of the Dermalogica/ avoiding dermatologist appointments, so that’s how I justify it. So while it makes me cringe every time I buy it, it really is worth it if you’re washing it two times a day (There’s also a 250ml size for 55 bucks Canadian on Sephora if you want to give it a go for less commitment, and that usually lasts for a good two months on its own).

I also use their Overnight Clearing Gel for my acne (also expensive), and I can do without, but do like, their microdermabrasion scrub, which also lasts forever. I also forgot to mention that this is the stuff coming straight from The International Dermal Institute, so they know what they’re doing. 

Others I enjoy:

Klairs: My (relatively) cheap routine if I’m running low on funds for the month. They have a great body-based soap bar if you have body acne (Which I usually don’t, but if I’m doing a lot of beach volleyball in the summer, gremlins in the sand fuck with my skin, I swear to god). 

Innisfree: Great based routines, and if you’re able to actually go to a store to get skin-matched, they have some amazing stores in Australasia. I use their sheet masks often.

Benton: Their aloe vera-based products are amazing for skincare; I use them usually in lieu of a body lotion.

Thayers: Their unscented toner is the only toner I trust, and it’s usually on sale at a drugstore.

Mychelle Cosmetics: As mentioned above, it’s responsible for my daily sunscreen; unfortunately, you can only get it in the States (Which is why I literally have a P.O. box across the border in America where I go to pick it up from because I live about fifteen minutes from the US-Canada border. Seriously, it’s that good).

 MooGoo: As mentioned above.

 Clinique: An oldie, but a goodie. Their skincare routine doesn’t have the same effect on my face like Dermalogica, but if I’m in a financial pinch and need something to hold me over at the mid-point price level, I still turn to Clinique. I still use their gel as my moisturiser, and they now have this new ‘mix and match’ program with Emilia Clarke as their promo-woman. I’ve heard the shade range for the BB cream-based moisturiser is terrible, even for white ladies, but I just got their Oil-Control gel with an ‘uneven skin tone’ top mixed in to address acne-scarring, and I’ve already seen some good results.

 Biotherma: See above.

La-Roche Posay: The routine my dermatologist recommended as a top professor of skincare at a leading hospital related to a university in Australia. It’s very gentle, and their Effaclar another mid-level price routine.

St Ives: If I’m really poor, I go for St. Ives. I don’t use their scrubs, because they use walnut shells on their that can literally rip up your face, but I do like their body wash, body lotion, and they recently released a cleanser with camomile which is calming for the face. It’s not as good as the Dermalogica stuff, but for cheap and for no harsh alcohols or chemicals, plus making a move towards being cruelty-free, I think St. Ives is trying to revamp their brand a bit after that bad press they had concerning #walnutgate. xD

Lush: Another cheaper option (although not really, because Lush usually gauges you for more than you’d pay for a proper Clinique cleanser for a bar of soap/ once you’ve got your full routine together). That being said, I do like their eye cream. I’m in my mid-twenties now, so I’m starting to try to do more preventative skincare.

Mario Badescu: I still use their acne spot treatment if I have a really terrible zit, and it’s gone the next morning.

Other brands I’ve heard good things about:

First Aid Beauty (I want to try their tinted sunscreen for summer)

Supergoop (Apparently their mineral sunscreen is really great for POC, as it doesn’t give the dreaded WHITE CAST)

Shiseido (A classic Japanese brand)

Keihls (Another one I’ve heard great things about but is more expensive)

Ren Clean Skincare (Another skincare brand I want to try).

So hopefully this gives you some ideas to try, nonny, and hopefully this helps someone. xD -shrug-

Yet another Bellarke Fade AND a Power Couple Strut

I just don’t know what to make of this

[drrubberfunk]

Earlier in the year I was asked to contribute to the excellent ‘Dusk Dubs’ mixtape series, and jumped at the chance. They have a nice format of asking guests to provide music that has a special place in their memories and in their souls - ‘...music that moves them, that invokes images of sunrises, sunsets, good times and good people’. 

I thought it’d be a nice way to compliment the other ‘My Life At 45′ themed mixes that I’ve done this year, with a selection of music you’d be likely to hear playing at my house over the last 30+ years, with tracks featured in full, mixed end to end, and a little story to go with each track. 

Here’s the full tracklisting, and photos of some of my well-loved vinyl that the tracks were recorded from - hope you enjoy this laid-back late summer stroll through my record collection, and My Life At 45!

1) Peddlers - ‘Whole Lot Of Sunlight’, from the 1970 Philips LP ‘Three For All’.

I picked this up in Avid Records in Oxford in the late nineties, I got a lot of good stuff from them around that time, picking up cheap classic soul, blues and jazz LPs, bargain priced late ‘80s / early ‘90s 12” singles that I’d missed the first time round and just taking a punt on interesting looking sleeves, or bands I’d heard about in sampling cirlces. ‘Suite London’ was the hot crate digger’s favourite from The Peddlers, but the production on ‘Three For All’ is right up my street, with wonderful hammond playing and a killer drum sound. It’s a great album from start to finish. I’ve used tracks on a few mixtapes in the past 20 years, but not this particular one, and with an apt title, it seemed like ‘Whole Lot Of Sunlight' was a nice way to kick off my late summer Dusk Dubs selection!

2) Joe McDuphrey Experience - ‘Solar Waves’, from the 2002 Stones Throw 12” ‘Experience EP’.

Madlib made a big impression on me when I first started producing with a sampler and a second hand Hohner Pianet. I really enjoyed this era when he was mixing live instrumentation with the straight up MPC sample business. ‘Solar Waves’ has it all - lolloping drums, wonky synths and tasty electric piano - a super laid-back groove, and is one I rediscovered in my collection recently. Plus, I’m a sucker for coming up with a bunch of aliases to cover all the roles you might play on a record - Madlib is the undisputed champ at that.

3) Paul Weller - ‘That Spiritual Feeling’ (New Mix) from the 1993 Go! Discs promo 12” GOXDJ 102.

My first proper music industry job in the mid nineties was as a radio plugger, and we shared an office building with Go!Discs - home at the time to Portishead, David Holmes, The Beautiful South and Paul Weller, amongst others. There was a little shared kitchen area with a photocopier, and I was busily copying press releases one afternoon on about my 3rd day in the job, when I heard someone making a drink behind me. Turning round I was confronted by Mr Paul Weller himself, impeccably dressed (with an AMAZING tan) stirring his cup of tea. ‘Hello’ he said, ‘I’m Paul - nice to meet you’.

I managed not to swoon or drop my photocopying and introduced myself as the new boy. I worked on radio promo with him across various album projects for the next 4 years, culminating with a week on a tour bus with Paul and his crew doing sessions at radio stations across the country. Story for another time maybe … Anyway - also in that little kitchen area at Go! Discs was their stock cupboard, which I rinsed for releases I’d missed in the years prior to my starting work there. ‘That Spiritual Feeling’ was originally on his first solo release ‘Into Tomorrow’ in 1991, but got remixed and added to this promo, as well as appearing on the ‘Sunflower’ 12” (taken from ‘Wildwood’) It’s got the instantly recognisable JBs on it, with a classic horn arrangement backing up a kinda hypnotic 2 chord groove that just rolls and rolls. I can listen to it for hours.

4). Rhianna - ‘Word Love’ (4 Hero Soul Mix) from the 2002 Sony Soho Square promo 7” XPR 3600.

4 Hero were killing it in the early ‘00s as their productions evolved from the breakbeat mastery of the ‘90s into the wonderfully orchestrated arrangements that saw them covering ‘Les Fleur’, and bringing their deft touch to an increasing number of quality remixes. I don’t think this version of British soul star Rhianna’s ‘Word Love’ - which I loved in it’s original form - ever made it to a commercial release, but it’s something I’ve played out a lot over the years, and it always gets great comments and a bunch of info requests from the crowd.

5) GangStarr - ‘Jazz Thing’ (Instrumental Mix) from the 1990 CBS promo 12” XPR 1571.

I saw Mo Better Blues at the cinema in Australia in November 1990 and bought the soundtrack on cassette the next day. Brandford Marsalis and Terence Blanchard have a superb dialogue across all the tracks, especially on the Canonball Adderley-esque title track. However, Gang Starr’s ‘Jazz Thing’ blew my tiny teenage mind, and I became a bit obsessed with it over the next few years, the samples, the cuts, the live loops - especially after my new college mate Pete made me a tape a year or so later with two extra versions from the 12”, including this, the Instrumental Mix. I finally tracked down my own copy of this import promo in the Soul & Dance Exchange in Notting Hill in the late nineties, and it’s lived in my record bag pretty much ever since.

6) John Mayall’s Bluesbreakers with Peter Green - ‘Greeny’, from the 1969 Decca LP ‘The World Of Blues Power’.

Everyone my sort of age with some records is bound to have one or two liberated from their parent’s collection, and this was an album I discovered in my folks collection in about 1987, not long after buying a drum kit. I’d been rinsing their Beatles albums since I was a kid - singing along to ‘Drive My Car’ and ‘Octopus’s Garden’, but the World Of Blues Power seem a bit of alien concept until I gave it a good listen as a teen. There’s some classic pyrotechnic stuff from rising Brit Blues stars like Eric Clapton and Paul Butterfield, alongside US veterans like Champion Jack Dupree and Eddie Boyd, who’d moved to Europe in the ‘60s.

Always understated, Peter Green’s playing on ‘Greeny’ is perfect; simple and catchy as hell, but with complete mastery of his instrument.

7) Stanley Clarke - ‘Blues For Mingus’, from the 1979 Nemperor LP ‘I Wanna Play For You’.

This was another ’90s bargain from Avid Records in Oxford, but I first heard it when babysitting in the late ‘80s. The couple who’s kids I was deemed suitably responsible enough to be left in charge of were very happy for me to listen to their small but perfectly formed record collection, and many happy evenings were spent with a pile of C90s taping all sorts of classic jazz and blues. Took me the best part of the next 20 years to find my own vinyl copies of them all mind you. The uptempo jazz rock that Stanley Clarke was known for in the ‘70s is featured throughout the part-live ‘I Wanna Play For You’ album, but this downtempo small group number perfectly encapsulated my idea of what a jazz club gig should sound like; dark, smoky and soulful.

8) Al Green - ‘Lay It Down’, from the 2008 Blue Note LP ‘Lay It Down’.

Is it controversial to call this my favourite Al Green album? I mean, you can’t deny the classic ‘60s and ‘70s hits, but for me, this Questlove produced LP is right up there in terms of songwriting and production. I could have happily featured any of the album tracks here, but went with the title track for the silky strings and restrained playing from Questlove. Something as a drumming producer myself I’m less good at ;)

9) Matt Deighton - ‘Hey, My Mind’, from the 1995 Focus LP ‘Villager’.

This whole album is stuffed full of timeless sounding songs, it's one I’ve listened to alot over the years and comes complete with alot of happy memories.

Just before I got the plugging job, I’d been working in promotions for (the original) Virgin Radio in London, driving a branded vehicle around town all day. Seems mad and pointless in 2020, but it was fun in 1995, I was young, it seemed to be sunny all the time, I had a free 4WD and it paid quite well. I used the station’s copy of ‘The White Book’ - an entertainment industry directory that cost a small fortune back then - to look up the addresses of my favourite record labels, and spent most days knocking on their doors in an attempt to blag some free records. One of these labels was Acid Jazz, and, having announced which station I worked for, I was rushed in to meet their head of marketing and plied with records and CDs, before someone eventually asked ‘so, what is it you actually do at Virgin again?’. I bluffed my way through the next 10 minutes and agreed to have a chat to the producer of the evening show about getting a session for Matt Deighton. Matt was the singer and guitarist with Mother Earth, of whom I was a big fan, and was currently promoting a new solo album ‘Villager’ - Mother Earth had been a guest on the Virgin show before, and so the producer said yes to a session. I’m sure she would have booked him anyway, but she graciously let me set it up with Acid Jazz, gaining me some vital industry kudos and connections in the process.

10) Money Mark - ‘All The People’, from the 1998 Mo Wax / A&M LP ‘Push The Button’.

Mo Wax were one of my favourite ‘90s labels, having been introduced to them by a college friend sometime in ’93, and I think I tried unsuccessfully blagging my way onto their mailing list in my Virgin days, but later on, after the A&M deal, I had better luck getting occasional freebies. ‘Mark’s Keyboard Repair’ was the record that the genre lo-fi was invented for, with the mix of bit-crushed samples and live vintage keys, but ‘Push The Button’ is a brilliantly rounded record, with some great pop songs. Session legend Jim Keltner is playing drums on this track, which I’d forgotten about until I was reading the sleevenotes while recording this mix - his playing with the likes of Delaney & Bonnie, BB King, Leon Russell, Bill Withers, Eric Clapton and all of the Beatles on their various solo projects has been a big influence on my drumming style over the years. Records I’ve never heard of but have bought just because Jim Keltner is on drums is an extensive section of my collection.

11) Bedouine - ‘Summer Cold’, from the 2017 Spacebomb Records LP ‘Bedouine’.

Spacebomb are one of my favourite contemporary labels, with a studio sound and ethos that I aspire to greatly as I enter my third decade as a producer, and I’ve been picking up their releases since hearing label owner, and talented artist, Matthew E. White interviewed on 6 Music back in 2015. LA Based Syrian born Bedouine put out one of my most listened to albums of 2017 (and since!), and I would have featured any of the tracks in this mix, but something about the found sounds at the end of ‘Summer Cold’ seemed to work very nicely with the start of the following song from Emily King. Bedouine’s vocal and guitar sound is wonderfully distintive, and beautifully enhanced by the sympathetic Spacebomb Horn and String arrangements - get yourself the LP!

12) Emily King - ‘Distance’, from the 2015 Making Music Records LP ‘The Switch’.

I didn’t listen to many new records while I was producing Izo FitzRoy’s debut (track coming next!) - I think I thought I’d find it distracting, I suspect that wouldn’t have been the case, but once Izo’s record was in the can, I gorged on releases I’d missed and found things that have become all time favourites. Most of them seem to be by women with a very different sound to Izo, but equally captivating writing and energy. Emily King is one of those artists, along with Bedouine, Jane Weaver and Aldous Harding amongst others. ‘Distance’ is such a great song, and I love Emily’s voice and guitar playing, plus the production and feel too - ticks all the boxes for me.

13) Izo FitzRoy - ‘Heads Held High’, from the 2017 Jalepeno Records LP ‘Skyline’.

This was one of my favourites from Izo’s debut that I produced and played on a few years ago. A great lyric and performance from Izo over a groove that we worked hard to sound like a mix of samples and live instruments, but was in fact all recorded and produced in my studio at home. Initially Izo and I were writing on some tracks that I’d already recorded with a view to them going on a Dr Rubberfunk album, but it was pretty clear after we’d written a few things together that she had so many great songs that the project needed to be an album for her. Even at a few years distance, I’m still really pleased with how the record turned out, with a ’studio sound’ I can call my own, and one that I’ve been able to carry over to my recent ‘My Life At 45’ LP - on which Izo turns in another couple of killer performances!

14) Urban Species - ‘Blanket’ featuring Imogen Heap, from the 1998 Talkin’ Loud LP ‘Blanket’.

Along with Acid Jazz and Mo Wax, Talkin’ Loud were another label I was madly collecting everything they released throughout the ‘90s and beyond. Having DJ’d in support of Urban Species at my college in 1994, I was already a fan, and their second album ‘Blanket’ is one of my all-time favourites by any artist. It features two great collaborations with Terry Callier, and two with Imogen Heap, including the title track featured here. Great writing and production, I was very influenced by this record as I started working with vocalists. Always love the guitar solo over the fade out too - if it exists, I’d love to get my hands on the full version without the fade!

15) Routes In Jazz - ‘Out In The Jungle’, from the 1992 Concious Records 12” CON 999.

Another sure shot from my days as a nascent DJ at Froebel College in West London in the early ‘90s. I was fortunate to have the support and encouragement of a couple of older students as I joined the Student Union and started organising events, and one of them - Lee - actually let me borrow his records a few times to play out with. Cheers Lee! This was one he used to play in warm up and bar sets, and I loved the double bass loop and ear worm horn sample (I never have worked out what it’s from), so had to get a copy. In some ways it’s a very 1992 record, but has stood the test of time in terms of production as far as I’m concerned.

16) DJ Krush - ‘Yeah’, from the 1994 Mo Wax LP ‘Strictly Turntablized’.

Early Mo Wax classic, from before all this sort of thing was considered ‘trip hop’, it was just killer instrumental hip hop as far as I was concerned, and DJ Krush, along with DJ Shadow, was right up there, leading the way. Another big influence on me when I eventually got a sampler - tough drums: check, swinging bass sample: check, jazzy horn and vocal samples: check. Love it.

17) Freak Power - ‘My Heart Sings’, from the 1994 ‘In Dub - The Fried Funk Food EP’, bonus album with some vinyl editions of the ‘Drive Thru Booty’ LP

They say never meet your heroes, but having meet and worked with both Norman Cook and Ashley Slater, the creators of the Freak Power project, I’d have to disagree. Naturally, if you’ve read through the tracklisting this far, you’ll have worked out there’s another showbiz story to go with this selection, and there is, but I’m saving it for another time, ‘cos it’s LONNNGGGG. Suffice it to say, ‘Turn On Tune In, Cop Out’ was a massive tune in ’93, and when the album dropped the following year I was straight down the record shop on release day. I wasn’t expecting a bonus ‘Dub EP’, much less one with almost unrecognisable remixes of the album tracks, but I was very happy to have it included. Some of the best downtempo beats Norman has made I think, and the drum programming on the second half of this track had me scratching my head in my pre-sampler owning days and wondering how the heck it was done. Fabulous sample choices, and nice and long too - handy for those DJ set comfort breaks.

18) John Martyn - ‘Sunshine’s Better’ (Talvin Singh Mix), from the 1996 Go! Discs promo 12” SSB1.

Talking of long tracks, here’s 10 minutes plus of John Martyn and the balearic classic ‘Sunshine’s Better’ reworked beautifully by Talvin Singh. John was another of the artists on Go! Discs when I was plugging for them, and I think it’s widely accepted he was a challenging character at that stage of his career. Still an amazing songwriter and performer though, and sounding as good as ever on the album ‘And’ from which ‘Sunshine’s Better’ is taken. Phil Collins on drums too.

19) Incognito - ‘Out Of The Storm’ (C’s Planet E Mix), from the 1996 Talkin’ Loud promo 12” TLDJ54.

If you were putting together a downtempo set in ’96, and you had ‘Sunshine’s Better’, you needed this Carl Craig mix of ‘Out Of The Storm’ for sure. Hip hop drum loops, swirling synth pads, a wobbly flute sample and some perfectly placed little bass guitar fills and turnarounds made this perfect in so many ways. I was VERY excited to get a promo copy, and definitely felt I had ‘arrived’ as a DJ when this came through the letterbox one morning. old DJ voice “Those were the days.” LOL.

20) Freddie King - ‘Gambling Woman Blues’, from the 1977 RSO LP ‘Freddie King (1934-1976)’.

In case you were worried I’d skipped over my love of the blues with just one track, here’s a less well known number from Freddie King, recorded during sessions with Eric Clapton and his band in the early ’70s, just a few years before King’s untimely death in 1976. I’ve got plenty of albums by the ‘Three Kings’ (Albert, B.B and Freddie) and they all had some very funky moments in the late sixties and early seventies. This posthumous compilation album was also in the collection of the family I used to babysit for, another tape that had pretty much worn out before I could track down my own vinyl copy, which, as you can hear, has been well played too. Again, a track that seems to fade just as it’s getting going, but fear not - there’s a 20+ minute version on some of the popular streaming services.

21) Donny Hathaway - ‘What’s Going On?’ from the 2014 ATCO Records LP ‘Live At The Bitter End 1971’.

I heard Gilles Peterson play tracks from this album on his 6 Music Show on Record Store Day in 2014. RSD often falls on my birthday weekend, so I thought I’d treat myself to this re-issue (with previously unissued tracks) of Donny Hathaway’s 1971 shows at the Bitter End on Bleecker Street in New York City. Although there aren’t many artists that can make a convincing go of covering Marvin Gaye, Donny is definitely one of them, and ‘What’s Going On?’ sounds just as relevant today as it ever did. I felt it was an appropriate choice, given the state of the world today, my love of black music and the fact that my whole music career is based on it. Once more, for the people at the back, BLACK LIVES MATTER.

22) Wes Montgomery - ‘Sun Down’, from the 1966 Verve Records LP ‘California Dreaming’.

3 quid from, you’ve guessed it, Avid Records. Bargain. I listened to an absolute ton of blues guitarists in my late teens, but it was a few years later that I started going sideways into jazz guitar, falling in love with the soul jazz / acid jazz sound of Grant Green and Ivan ‘Boogaloo Joe’ Jones, before finding the earlier generation - the likes of Barney Kessel, Kenny Burrell, Joe Pass and Wes Montgomery. Tricky to pick between them to be honest, but it seemed this upbeat and optimistic big band number from the 1966 ‘California Dreaming’ album by Wes Montogomery, a mixture of contemporary pop covers and jazz standards, with Herbie Hancock on piano, and engineered by Rudy Van Gelder - two more heroes of mine - was a good way to close out my Dusk Dubs choices.

Penggunaan Komponen Pipa Beton dalam Bidang Sipil

Perkembangan dunia teknologi dari zaman perang dunia ke-2 hingga saat ini berjalan sangat cepat. Ragam fasilitas dan infrastruktur juga turut berkembang pesat mengikuti kemajuan peradaban manusia. Saat ini penggunaan terhadap bahan-bahan alami tidak begitu digunakan manusia, khususnya pada pemilihan material konstruksi, dimana manusia saat ini cenderung menggunakan bantuan mesin modern agar pembuatan infrastruktur yang kompleks menjadi lebih mudah dengan jumlah produksi banyak. Contoh pada pipa beton yang digunakan pada saluran air atau gorong-gorong.  

Pipa beton merupakan satu dari sekian banyak material pembuatan saluran air yang kini telah tersedia dalam bentuk siap digunakan. Material ini merupakan salah satu material modern yang sedang populer pada bidang konstruksi kekinian. Penggunaan di lautan ini mulai dari skala menengah hingga skala besar. Mulai dari konstruksi sumur rumah hingga jalan, semua dilakukan sesuai kebutuhan. Dapatkan juga memiliki kegunaan yang beraneka macam. Meski demikian penggunaan saluran air pada pipa beton ini merupakan salah satu prinsip utamanya. Sehingga wajar jika pipa beton ini dapat berfungsi sebagai tempat air mengalir mulai dari hulu hingga hilir.  

Penerapan Teknologi Produksi Pipa Beton

Tahun 1984 merupakan tahun dimana pabrik beton belum ramai berdiri di Indonesia. Saat itu pembuatan pipa beton masih cenderung menggunakan sistem manual yaitu dengan cara memadukan semen dan pasir pada dua buah cetakan yang memiliki bentuk lingkaran dalam dan luar. Begitu juga dengan proses pemadatan adukan yang masih menggunakan tenaga manusia. Kemudian berlanjut pada tahun 1999 beberapa pabrik beton berdiri menggunakan teknologi yang beraneka ragam. Berikut ini beberapa teknologi yang masih digunakan pada pembuatan pipa beton di Indonesia. High Vibration Vertical Cast Pipa beton dicetak menggunakan mesin penggetar. Cetakan mesin pembuat beton tersebut terdiri dari 2 buah komponen penting, diantaranya inner mould serta outer mould. Keduanya sama-sama bentuk menyerupai tabung. Sampai saat ini penggunaan teknologi vibration vertical cast masih banyak diterapkan di beberapa negara, khususnya wilayah Eropa. Meski pada akhirnya beberapa pabrik modern menganggap teknologi tersebut sudah ketinggalan zaman. Wet Spinning / Sentrifugal Proses produksi pipa beton pada teknologi yang satu ini menggunakan gaya perputaran tinggi atau biasa disebut dengan sentrifugal. Mula-mula suatu mould ditempatkan pada dua pasang roda besi. Kemudian motor menggerakkan roda besi tersebut, hingga akhirnya molekul-molekul di dalam ikut berotasi sesuai tingkat kecepatan yang sudah diatur. Proses perputaran ini telah efektif menghasilkan 10 kali gaya gravitasi bumi. Sehingga sangat efektif dan tidak memakan banyak waktu. 

Khususnya pada saat proses pemadatan di pipa beton. Dimana mould berposisi secara vertikal tidak horizontal. Teknologi wet spinning sejatinya merupakan hasil inovasi pria berkebangsaan Australia, bernama Homes. Sejarah penemuannya tersebut tergores pada satu abad yang lalu. Hingga saat ini teknologi sentrifugal telah dikembangkan di beberapa negara Eropa, Asia dan Australia. Khususnya negara Jepang. Roller Suspension Setelah penggunaan sentrifugal mulai sedikit ditinggalkan, muncullah teknologi terbaru berikutnya yaitu roller suspension. Teknologi ini merupakan hasil karya dua pria berkebangsaan Australia pula, mereka adalah Clark dan Robert. Prinsip kerja pada teknologi roller suspension sejatinya masih serupa dengan teknologi sentrifugal, yaitu sama-sama masih menggunakan mould, yang membuat berbeda adalah alat cetaknya yang tidak diletakkan pada permukaan atas roda besi akan tetapi digantungkan pada batang roller. Ketika batang roller berotasi, maka mould juga ikut berotasi dengan kecepatan yang sama. Namun tidak sebegitu kencang dengan teknologi sentrifugal sebelumnya. Dengan demikian maka proses tumbukan antar batang roller dan beton itu sendiri menjadi bagian dari proses pemadatan. Wajar jika teknologi ini hanya dapat memiliki kekuatan 2 hingga 4 kali gaya gravitasi bumi saja untuk menjaga beton tidak terjatuh pada saat proses pencetakan. Hingga detik ini teknologi roller suspension masih diterapkan di beberapa negara Asia dan Australia. Tak terkecuali pula di negara Prancis. Packer Head Perpaduan teknologi sentrifugal dan vertical cast telah menciptakan sebuah metode baru bernama packer head. Usut punya usut, ternyata teknologi ini merupakan inovasi terakhir dari perkembangan pembuatan pipa beton. Posisi mould meletakkan secara vertikal, akan tetapi mould bagian dalam tidak terpasang. Hanya mould bagian luar saja yang masih digunakan. Batang roller yang memiliki ujung berupa kedua pasang roda besi selanjutnya akan berputar dengan kecepatan tinggi.

Kemudian akan bergerak secara vertikal yakni dari bawah ke atas. Dengan demikian maka pipa beton akan memadat setelah melalui proses gaya press atau penekanan yang berasal dari ujung roller tersebut. Pada penggunaannya mesin packer head dapat dikontrol secara otomatis. Dengan begitu kebutuhan terhadap tenaga diminimalisir. Saat ini teknologi packer head telah banyak dikembangkan di beberapa negara Eropa, tak ketinggalan pula Amerika Serikat yang juga turut meramaikan.

2019 British Open breakdown

Here is our evaluation of some of the betting favorites this week, and the reasons they will or won’t win the season’s fourth and final major championship.

Rory McIlroy +800

First round tee time: 5:09 a.m.

There will be a lot of pressure on McIlroy at Royal Portrush, but there’s plenty of reasons to like him. He notably shot a course record 61 there as a 16-year-old and has the built-in advantage of familiarity with a course that’s a relative unknown to several of the top threats this weekend. In terms of his recent game, McIlroy is third on the PGA Tour in course and field adjusted driving distance over the last six weeks at 321 yards, and he’s sixth average adjusted strokes per round at 67.3. He’s got the narrative, the game, and the comfort level all on his side.

Brooks Koepka +1100

First round tee time: 8:04 a.m.

In addition to currently being the World’s top-ranked player, Koepka enters this tournament with a secret weapon.  He’s got caddie Ricky Elliott trailing him, key because he is a Royal Portrush member and has intimately familiarity with the course which should help Koepka navigate its nuances as the weekend progresses. Plus, Koepka should be well rested:

You may practice your golf more than @BKoepka

#TheOpen pic.twitter.com/asvgHSrRkB

— The Open (@TheOpen) July 16, 2019

Koepka clearly comes from the school of Allen Iverson.

Jon Rahm +1400

First round tee time: 10:21 a.m.

Rahm dazzled with a final round 62 to win the Irish Open two weeks ago, and, as a result, he’s climbed up the board of Open favorites leading up to the tournament. Rahm is noted as an outstanding links player whose proven that he can have success in a similar climate that he will see this weekend. With a 67.3 average adjusted strokes per round, Rahm has an identical number over the last six weeks to Rory McIlroy. He figures to be very much in contention to win this thing.

Dustin Johnson +1600

First round tee time: 9:59 a.m.

You never know what you’re going to get with Johnson. He is the world’s  No. 2 ranked golfer, but only comes into this tournament with one major win to his credit – the 2016 U.S. Open. He’s been close two adding to his resume in recent majors, finishing second at both at Augusta and Bethpage. At +1850 odds, he’s not a bad bet to finally break through. 

Tiger Woods +2000

First round tee time: 10:10 a.m.

Tiger hasn’t played in over a month since he played in mid-June at the U.S. Open. Apparently, he was looking to a fellow competitor for get a tune up earlier this week. He didn’t get much help:

Tiger Woods texted Brooks Koepka to ask him if he'd want to play a practice round together.

Brooks didn't respond.

This guy means business. pic.twitter.com/XBlvogPWpO

— SI Golf (@SI_Golf) July 16, 2019

Ouch. No respect for a legend.

In all seriousness, Woods took a break ahead of playing at Bethpage where he didn’t last through Friday. His ability to shake off the rust will be key to his success as will his ability to stay healthy. Weather is expected to be damp and chilly for most of the weekend, which isn’t an ideal climate for someone battling back issues.

As for his game, he’s shown increased driver accuracy lately at both The Memorial and US Open, hitting fairways on 73.2 percent of his drives. That’s an encouraging development. 

Justin Rose +2200

First round tee time: 9:48 a.m.

Rose is currently ranked No. 4 in the world, but there’s a recent trend that raises a white flag. HIs 54.2% greens in regulation is significantly below that of the other favorites. Still, his 26 course and field adjusted puts per round has been outstanding and eliminates some of those driver and iron inconsistencies.

Patrick Cantlay +2500

First round tee time: 10:21 a.m.

Many experts believe that Cantlay is poised for big weekend on the big stage. There’s a lot to like. He’s got a good driver and an elite average adjusted strokes per round over both recent and year-plus sample sizes. His consistency makes him a threat to factor throughout the course of the weekend. In fact, he’s a good Top 10 finisher pick.

Adam Scott +2500

First round tee time: 4:58 a.m.

Scott is having an under-the-radar fantastic season despite the lack of a major victory. He comes into Royal Portrush with the third best average adjusted strokes per round over the last six weeks at 66.8, and he should be quite comfortable when he tees off on Thursday morning. He arrived in Northern Ireland a week prior to the event and played three practice rounds with 2011 Open Winner Darren Clarke. That familiarity could loom large against much of a field that lacks experience on this course.

Henrik Stenson +2500

First round tee time: 4:14 a.m.

Here’s what we know about Henrik Stenson. He’s going to efficiently make greens. He has been elite Top 10 performer in both long term and recent samples with hitting greens in regulation.

Xander Schaufele +2800

First round tee time: 4:14 a.m.

Undoubtedly, there’s decent value here for a guy who has finished in the Top 5 of his 10 major tournaments four times. The 25-year-old has shown ability to acquit himself well on the big stage. Can he finally finish the job? He enters with an elite 27 course and field adjusted putts per round.

Bryson DeChambeau +4000

First round tee time: 4:58 a.m.

If you’re looking for a wild card that possesses the physical tools, then DeChambeau is worth a flier at that this price. He’s currently the world’s No. 6 ranked golfer, but is 15th in terms of top betting favorites at SugarHouse. He was the runner up at the 3M Open, and, man, he finished strong.

72nd hole …

EAGLE for @B_DeChambeau!

Solo leader @3MOpen.

All the emotions.#LiveUnderPar pic.twitter.com/8PHnNJTWL2

— PGA TOUR (@PGATOUR) July 7, 2019

But it wasn’t to be as Matthew Wolff drilled a 21-foot eagle put win it.

DeChambeau’s long term and recent adjusted round scores are well above average. The concern with DeChambeau is that his ball can up in the air off the tee and that could be potentially problematic on the coast of Northern Ireland. If he can reign in the natural elevation off the tee, he’s got a chance.

2019 British Open Prediction

I know I’m not exactly going out on a limb here, but give me McIlroy. He just makes too much sense. Fourteen years after memorably shooting a 61 as a 16-year-old at Royal Portrush, McIlroy will return to earn his fifth major championship.
