CONQUER THE WIND [EP].
Posted on March 1, 2012 2 Comments
“The art of excitement, the science of control.” All it took was a glance at these cars parked in a lot and you could hear the V8 engine whispering to you, calling you to the road. The look of these vehicles just screamed pure power. And then there were the commercials.
When it comes to making advertisements and commercials, nobody does it like Pontiac. Nobody can package a shot of clean adrenaline to your heart in 30 seconds like the promotional powerhouses at this company.In an attempt to harness and match the power and aggressiveness that these vehicles held, the marketing hotshots at Pontiac crafted commercials that played like a triple-threat music video, action movie and sci-fi thriller all in one. They’ve been posted on here numerous times and can be found all over YouTube. As a tribute to Pontiac, who by the way have been defunct since October 31, 2010 (RIP), we stripped the audio from the best of the best of Pontiac commercials and packaged them in an EP for you to download and cherish. No apologies for the bad sound quality. Consider it a blessing that someone excavated these commercials for us to enjoy. Stream the EP here, then download below (zip).
“Create a car to conquer the wind, a car that lets you slip off the commonplace and experience driving excitement as never before… the Pontiac Firebird Trans Am. Sit here and learn first hand how Firebird conquers the wind and the world. Pontiac. We Build Excitement.”
TWO CRUDE DUDES VIDEO [VIDEO PREMIERE].

Nobody told them that when they’d give up the ‘ludes, they’d become TWO CRUDE DUDES.
They gallop down the Pacific Coast Highway in a 1986 JEEP CJ-7 and a 1985 Monte Carlo SS (with T-Tops), each with one arm out the window, fully tanned, veins popping out and chewing bubble gum. Their plan? To bulldoze down the dull and lifeless indie-rock and emo stylings of the modern neutered man. This is TNUC and Mike Ballermann’s “TWO CRUDE DUDES MIX :: 12 TRACKS OF TWISTED STEEL AND SEX APPEAL”. Coming soon to UncleTNUC.com and Soundcloud.com/UncleTNUC!
Wouldn’t it have been a little predictable if TNUC had made his latest video to some teen-dream, neon lit, soft-bedroom-pop, generic-sounding electronic song? To keep things fresh and lethal, like Malibu’s feathered hair, we constructed a party-metal video to accompany the TWO CRUDE DUDE’S upcoming mix. Be sure to stay until the very end of the video and please, TURN IT UP.
LOVE THEMES.

BREAKFAST WITH BRAD.

If you’re reading this at the time it was posted, it’s Sunday morning. Do your part in remembering this big screen greatness by firing up some quick morning medicine and have a seat to watch the greatest movie of all time. Don’t follow Dalton’s lead in the above scene by refusing his villainous breakfast offer. Sit down, kick your feet up, rest your tan slacks on the sofa and pop in Roadhouse for a proper 758th viewing. After all, we owe it to Wesley. Let’s not forget, this is the man who grew up on the streets of Chicago. He brought the mall here, brought the 711 here, brought the Photomat here and most importantly JC Penney is coming here because of HIM.
*WORLD PREMIERE RELEASE* – At last, for the first time ever Michael Kamen’s score to Roadhouse is available to purchase! This score has been stored in vaults since 1989 but is finally here…newly remixed and mastered in superb stereo sound. Buy it now while quantities remain through Intrada and stream one of the tracks below.
THE BEST STUFF ON EARTH.

Maybe when my agent returns from Guam, we’ll finally get some signatures down in ink on that lucrative deal he’s been promising for years, and get started on making a record. The sound quality on this track is piss poor, apologies for that, but its the best we could salvage from the beloved Lou Ferrigno’s Body Perfection workout tape.
Thirsty for more? Read our Lou Ferrigno predecessor post (featuring a clip from the workout tape) at this location.
KING TUT.

Back during the ancient MySpace times there was a little art project/musical venture by the name of TRANSAM that I started reminiscing about the other day. These forgotten warriors were pretty intriguing with their straight-up concept tracks about some of TNUC’s most beloved possessions. Pizza (seen here). Pepsi. Trans Am’s. KING TUT…
