Nerdcore invades Newsweek

Sunday, January 28th, 2007

Still steaming from ytcracker’s MySpace blog entry, Nerdcore has made it’s way into Newsweek, Geeksta Rap Rising. It of course covers the story of ytcracker and how he got into rapping.
There seems to be a slight connection being made with nerd rapping and white rappers, which I don’t get. But couldn’t help but laugh when […]

Filmfodder interviews MC Frontalot

Friday, January 26th, 2007

Shannon Nolley of Filmfodder news got a very nice interview of MC Frontalot, our favorite nerdcore celebrity. It has a little bit of everything: the Nerdcore Rising documentary of course, Weird Al, and plateaus.
And straight from Frontalot’s fingertips themselves, he has recently been on Belgian radio. Hopefully you’ll be luckier than me and actually have […]

Nerd of the week

Wednesday, January 24th, 2007

Straight from the dark, damp, and dangerous sectors of the internet, aka my post comments, comes of a cool video cast produced by the same people who produced Nerdcore Rising, titled Nerd of the Week:
Nerd of the Week is a weekly webcast from the movie “Nerdcore Rising” by Vaguely Qualified Productions. Each episode features a […]

Want to be in Rhyme Torrents Volume 6?

Tuesday, January 23rd, 2007

Rhyme Torrents, a site dedicated to Nerdcore Hiphop compilations (as well as home to perhaps the best Nerdcore Boards to date), is calling for submissions for their 6th compilation. This time, they are ignoring the 80 minute CD-R limit and just including what they feel deserves to be on the CD. That means there is […]

Nintendo, made for music

Saturday, January 20th, 2007

Nintendo is so popular with music for some reason. We have the Gameboy, DS, and now, the Wii. This guy got the Wii working with an FX processor and uses it in his live set. Sure he looks like a bored traffic director ready to quit, but it’s pretty cool to see people working with […]
