Tune in to SoulGood this Sunday Night as Bill Fragos will be interviewing one of the biggest House DJs/Producers: Armand van Helden.

Armand van Helden is currently touring Australia promoting his latest compilation "New York: A Mix Odyssey" and has released three huge tracks in the last few months: "Hear My Name", "My My My" and "Everytime I Feel It". Armand has been responsible for some of the biggest club tracks/remixes and some may say responsible for starting up what is known as "Speed Garage".

Ben, we are waiting for your long story....

Double or nothing, I bet I can beat you. U can use your Sigma as collateral. Is it worth anything? : P

It involved one very intoxicated DJ, attempts to pull, a car running out of petrol (gauge doesn't work), attempts to pull, one nasty hangover, pulling, and a very irate drama teacher - not in that order. Our show's in two weeks and we're still wandering the stage with heads buried in scripts.

My Sigma is so pathetic it doubles in value when I fill the tank. Not only does the fuel gauge not work, the brakes require you to shove down as hard as you can to make the car stop with the sound of grating metal on metal, the car leaks onto the driver's seat so I have to sit on a towel (the water also gives the seats a lovely wet-carpet smell), the tires are bald, the demister doesn't work and the windscreen wipers are temperamental at best.

Will trade for any new release 12".

Ben James.

Ben, if only u put the alcohol into the car then it wouldnt have been so bad ... I saw that on a documentary recently.... crikee, then you would have a car, so when you were attempting to pull then you could have said to the chica in a James Bond-esque voice you have practising in your thespian classes: "We can take my car baby".... but it sounds like your car don't cut it anyway... have to PIMP YOUR RIDE (ask Crispian about this).

You weren't trying to pull your drama teacher...? Now that is dramatic!

It's good to know that somewhere in amongst your skylarking and tom foolery you did pull, but I reserve judgment until we know more about the quality of the pull. Considering the amount of alcohol in your system... well, as Mike Skinner says "I think you are about an 8 or a 9, maybe even 9 and half in 4 beers time"...

As for burying your head in a script, maybe you could change the play to be about a play about making a play.. then you could have your script on stage...

As for trading your car for vinyl, how about "Hear My Name" and "Stupidisco"... it's great getting records for free when you can give em/sell em to others.... and the moskva mice would like em too... do we have a deal? : P

Pimping your ride... (none / 0) (#5)

That's right - you can turn your sigma into the pimpest ride on the street, with the simple application of some 24" polished chrome rims and electronically controlled variable shocks!! Imagine the look on your lady's face when she has to use a stepladder to clamber in to your newly pimpified vehicle!! That's right badbwoy - your seat won't be the only wet one anymore :-P

On that subject, you can also drain the floods from the seating amenities by applying one of my patented phallic downpipe/exhausts!! No-one will question your masculinity with something the size of an elephant's knob hanging off the back of your ride!!

Of course if all of this is beyond your budget, you could always trade it in on a nissan skylark...

Ben's Pimp name, according to the Pimp name Generator (see Links section) is: Pimp Daddy Ben Sneed.

Now we just gotta pimp his ride. Pimp daddy can find his own biatch.
