In honor of the 25th anniversary of the first Macintosh (marked last Saturday on Jan 24),  Webdesignerdepot posted a brief history of the design of the legendary computer. Well, of Apple computers in general I guess — but who really remembers Apple before the Mac? (Ok, I do.) Even 25 years later that first Mac […]

Oh Snap! & Jen Lasher have teamed up for  a new mix, stream it below or download it HERE if you deem it worthy. I’m a sucker for breaks, so I’m feeling it —  a healthy mix of Florida booty, re-breaked classics and even some terror synths. (Although, what’s up with homie getting punched above? […]
