Thirty Three Jones | Desktop Site

As those of you who tried to load the site early this morning noticed, we once again were having technical difficulties. For once, I can't blame it on my web hosting company. About 5 years ago I registered the domain name with Register.com. At some undetermined point after that, they sold "the rights" to my domain contract to another company without notifying me. Long story short, today was the expiration date for the domain name. I assumed I was still registered with Register.com, so my payment never went through and Register.com decided not to tell me. Moral of the story: Do not use Register.com or PowerYourName.com if you ever want to register a domain name. Use something like GoDaddy.com instead, for less than half the price.

As is the usual case when things like this happen, I'm just going to put up a few links for today that you should all check out:

Am I High? has an old Bad Boy remix of ATLiens up. There's a good chance its better than anything that will be on their Idlewild soundtrack (which I hear is currently available on your favorite p2p network).

Spliff Huxtable put up a grip of Timbaland's best instrumentals on his site, go listen to the man at the top of the synthesized beats game.

ADORU has up a track from DJ Shadow's latest work, featuring Q-Tip. Sadly, it sounds like Shadow has decided to jump on the Hyphy bandwagon (about 9 months too late), so I'll probably pass on the new album.

Finally, go check out this video from way back in the day, featuring Ol Dirty Bastard and RZA at what looks like a High School talent show. The beginning is the best part, with the two of them dropping a little 5 percenter knowledge on the unreceptive high school audience.
