Wanted to have a separate place from Ecliptic Sight to display artwork, designs and photos. Art by Ecliptic Sight was the outcome with the focus on the art instead of the words. I will start posting photos that I have taken as well as from my family & friends. Designs that I have made for albums, logos and other random stuff. Basically it is a place to see all the art I have in higher resolution (800px or smaller) so sit back and watch as the pictures and descriptions inspire.

While downloading, “Madvillian – Papermill” like instructed to by Stones Throw, I missed this Madlib interview the first time. I saw it because I went back to see what the next week single was and I spotted it the second time at the bottom of the page. Madlib touches on a couple of topics including Madvillian, Stones Throw and his music. Go watch it and find out more about our favorite producer.

I haven’t put up a game trailer in awhile (I believe the last one was Bioshock). I enjoy when the tone or atmosphere of the game is set by the game trailer. Medal Of Honor: Leave A Message does just that. I could describe the trailer but it will take away from the feeling that you may get from seeing the trailer yourself. With E3 just around the corner, hopefully there will be more information and gameplay of Medal Of Honor. Maybe this can stop my addiction to Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2.

Doing my usual deviantART browsing and typed in hip-hop and this little gem popped up. The artist goes by DirtyDre and this is his take on some of his (and my) favorite emcees. Can you guess all five? Click on the image to see the answer. For more artwork and information on the artist check out his website at: http://andreguindi.blogspot.com/

my 5 favorite emcee’s matched by my five favorite albums by the artist, then one quote from each album respectively. ~DirtyDre

Recently I purchased the Shaolin Wu cap from AmazingStore.jp and wanted to make a video of the cap coming out of the box. The stitching and quality is just what you expect from a New Era cap, excellent. Shaolin and the Wu-Tang logo are on the front of the cap with Applebum logo and Wu-Tang name on the back. On the inside label it says “OG edition”. Overall I feel this cap does Wu-Tang proud and I will wear it that way. Check out the video to see it in action.

Usually I would wait until the end of the month or even listened to the albums before I try to put them up. These two releases are the exception because Dillon has proving his musically prowess on his album, “Studies In Hunger” and the Mystik Journeymen (of Living Legends) need no introduction with years of quality of hip-hop. Another reason for the urgency is that the Dillion – Cupid’s Revenge: The Ain’t Shit Suite is free for this week only. Mystik Journeymen (Sunspot Jonz and Luckyiam) – Return 2 The Love is their first release as a group since 2002.

If you remember auto reverse then you had a cassette collection of hip-hop that you lost once you went digital. Fast forward and now we have another F.A.T. update from our favorite internet neighbor, Future Ape Tapes to add to our digital collection. While us mortal humans toil away at our daily lives, Future Ape Tapes have begun to build “Temples”. Their “Temples” consists of musical sound waves that will crash against your ear lobes. If you have not gotten it yet “Temples” is the brand new album from F.A.T. The first song on the album titled, “Mirror Images” just made me keep hitting repeat. On their Bandcamp site you can “Name Your Price” for their new album which includes a video of their first single, “GameGirl”. Also you can check out their other releases which I own and also highly recommend.

Temples, as an album is about stumbling onto something that is thriving now but could be lost forever in the future.

A post on Art by Ecliptic Sight reminded me of a post that I should have written years ago. RETNA is a graffiti artist that has ventured into the formal art world with art galleries and other events. His style is definitely refreshing and easily recognizable. His work and info can be found at his website at digitalretna.com.
