I would often send my resume out to 200+ job listings and not even receive a single interview. During the entire period, I probably had 3-4 real legitimate interviews. In one of them the guy interviewing me was some schmuck who I replaced in a prior job that I was eventually let go from due to internal politics and bullshit outside of my abilities. So this guy basically already had a bad opinion about me, and I knew I wasn't going to get that job.  I've felt essentially blacklisted from my industry despite the fact that I never once got written up or reprimanded in my previous position at Apple.

"Go try to skateboard by yourself your whole life, it's gonna suck" says Pedro Barros in Free Dome's "Free Dream" Episode 1 from Thrasher Magazine. We also recently came across a neat little skate channel called The Curb Files. You should definitely check out their channel if you are interested in some nice tutorials that will get you grinding on curbs and pissing off your neighbors no time!

Some people have asked why we don't feature more surf videos in our playlists. Well, we heard you and added a video with Joel Paxton in this playlist to tide you over for now. We have definitely been aiming to do more surf themed playlists, so stay tuned...

Our good buddy ROVVLES recently released a new album of what he is referring to as "Ambient Space Music" with his album Jupiter Journey. An electronic adventure through the moons of Jupiter where "every moon has a story." We realize this music may not resonate with all of our listeners, but perhaps some will enjoy the experimental nature of the album.
