A Valentines Ad ;-)

"I'm looking for a free yet disciplined spirit I can roll down hills with on sunny days and solve thorny puzzles with when the skies are cloudy.

Can you see the absurd in the serious and the serious in the absurd? Are you a curious chameleon always working to sharpen your communication skills?

Might you be attracted to a sweet-talking wise-ass who's evolving into an enlightened holy goofball?
Emotional baggage is expected, of course, but please make sure yours is organized and well-packed.

Let's create the most unpredictably intriguing versions of beauty and truth that anyone ever imagined."

Obama goes rogue on GMOs

Dear Friend,
For far too long Monsanto has been able to control important market access for family farmers. Today their power has grown too great, they own more than 90% of the GMO seed genetics in the world and this is having a harmful impact on farmer's right to choose what type of seeds they want to plant and how American consumers want their food produced. Monsanto's excessive market share harms farmers, the environment, innovation and our democracy. It's time to Break Up Monsanto!
Last year the Department of Justice and U.S. Department of Agriculture held a series of 5 workshops investigating anti-competitive practices in the food and agricultural sectors. Nowhere are these abuses more prevalent than in the extreme market share enjoyed by the seed and chemical company Monsanto, which has a virtual stranglehold on seed supplies in crucial sectors that has severely limited farmer’s choice in what traits they can buy. Monsanto’s control of the seed market is so high that 93% of soybeans, some 82% of corn, 93% of cotton and 95% of sugar beets grown in the U.S. contain Monsanto’s patented genes.
During the 2008 campaign, President Obama promised to deal with the worst monopoly abusers in agriculture. Well now is the time!
Please join us in telling Department of Justice that it's time to Break Up to Monsanto today!
Let them know that you care about organic integrity by following this link from Food Democracy Now!, then please pass this on. Please join me in telling President Obama that it's time to stand up to Monsanto and reject these GMO crops today!

Every voice counts!
Thank you!
Peace, always, Shayn.

Pitchfork: News

Interesting...
http://pitchfork.com/news/
Three titans of experimental music have teamed up for a new 12" single. Thom Yorke, Four Tet, and Burial collaborated on the new tracks "Ego" and "Mirror" for a release on Four Tet's Text imprint. Four Tet played the songs earlier this afternoon on the UK radio station Rinse FM during his session with Floating Points, and of course it didn't take long for the A-side, "Ego", to hit the Internet. Listen to radio rips of the track above. UPDATE: "Mirror" has hit the Internet as well; you can check that track out as well. ...
Thx for the Update via @TomBreihan @Pitchfork.com

Shayn Almeida's Space

Shayn Almeida is a DJ, Musician, and full time Yoga Instructor.
Growing up on Marthas Vineyard Island, Shayn attended Green Mountain College studying English Literature and Journalism, with a minor concentration in Theatre, and a perpetual focus on Music.
Shayn has held residencies at Super Clubs such as Spundae, Avalon, The Mayan, Sugar, DEEP LA, and Vangaurd in Los Angeles.
He has played for years in the LA Underground with Moontribe, Higher Ground, Integral, Dream Circus Theatre, as well as mixing at Earth Dance and the annual Burning Man festival.
DJ Shayn has played with some of the best DJ's and producers in the world of Dance Music; from Breakbeat legends such as the Stanton Warriors, Evil 9, Adam Freeland, Freq Nasty, and Tipper, to pioneers of House Music such as Marques Wyatt, Derrick Carter, Doc Martin, and DJ Garth; Shayn has shined with the brightest stars in Dance Culture.
Shayn is known to seamlessly flow through House, Tech House, Electro, Breaks, Dub, Reggae, and Dubstep.
Singing throughout High School and College, he attended the Musicians Institute of Technology for Guitar, Recording, and Sound Engineering in Hollywood, CA.
Shayn began working in the Music Industry doing Live Sound, Mixing, Mastering, as well as designing Sound Systems in some of LA's most historical clubs. (One of his first gigs being at the legendary Club Lingerie on Sunset Blvd., where he would eventually meet Marques Wyatt and begin his career as a DJ).
In 2003 Shayn began working for the music production software company Native Instruments as their West Coast Product Specialist. He also began working with Stanton Magnetics (a.k.a. Stanton DJ) as they had partnered up with Native Instruments for the Traktor "Final Scratch" DJ system. As product specialist Shayn traveled the United States teaching Artists, Producers, Sound Engineers, and the general public how to use the entire line of Native Instruments music production software and bean using Traktor in his DJ sets.
After over a decade working in various aspects of the Music Industry, getting slightly disenchanted "Slangin' Dreams", Shayn chose to make a major career shift and completely focus on music production and his practice of Yoga.
Over time, with much practice and sincere study, Shayn began to connect his roots in Music to his teaching of Yoga.
He found that there was an entire aspect of Yoga dedicated specifically to Music, and that there were ancient texts outlining how Music effects and connects the Mind, Body, and Spirit.

Everything eventually comes full circle.
Shayn began working on a book and developing a system that detailed the history, science, and theories of various techniques using Sound & Music to enhance and evolve our lives; ideally expanding our ideas of both Music and Yoga.
In his home studio, Shayn began to incorporate this knowledge into his music production.
Shayn recently finished up a rough version of what is to become his first book, titled "Yoga and the Vinyasa of Sound: The Union, Connection, and Power of Sound and Music."
After a 5 year hiatus from mainstream DJ'ing, 2011 has marked the return of DJ Shayn into the Dance Music scene.
As a pioneer of the Tech House style he immediately re-established himself as one of LA's top DJ's, and is currently playing House, Tech House, and Dubstep to ecstatic crowds across the country.
With a residency at Vanguard and DEEP LA, Shayn is focused on the things he is most passionate about: Healing the World and assisting the Planet through Music, Yoga, and Dancing.
Shayn is currently immersed in Music Production and continues to Teach Yoga.
His book "Yoga and the Vinyasa of Sound", and upcoming DVD "Vinyasa Power" is set to be released in Winter 2011.
Shayn is in the studio daily producing his debut album 'Rocktronic' which is planned for release in Summer 2012.
