Along with special guest host, Matthew, we tackle the dubious task of covering the Winter 2010 anime season! If you’re not into anime, we also talk about No More Heroes 2, Four Tet, and the new Gurren Lagann film.

Some fun things have gone down in the past few days, so I decided to address some of that with my first set. Other than that it’s a set of brand new music (two of the songs were released in the past 24 hours) and another with some older punk stuff from the 70s. Hmm, I seem to have an affinity with newer music and 70s punk, or at least that’s what it seems like on the show. Trust me, I have more to me than just that, like J-Pop, which is what we end this week’s episode with! So, won’t you give it a download and take a harmony joy bus ride?

BFM Special Podcasts could be seen as an equivalent to other podcasts’ “Gaiden” episodes. These are short impromptu podcasts of things we desperately feel the need to podcast about. We’ve done stuff like this before; however, they now have a name and are numbered.

This week our music podcast is chiptunes!

There’s not really much else to say. I suppose one could label this week’s choosing as diverse, but it’s all the same genre. Even so, it could still be said of this playlist that it contains a variety of songs.

Who really cares though! It’s chiptune music. Good old fashioned fun music usually made with the sounds of game systems before they all made the switch to modern PCM and had their own unique sound chips!

This week we cleanse the reserve of the multitude of stuff we got over the holidays! There’s so much stuff that we didn’t even have a segment! That’s a lie, actually. We have so many new experiences to share, that our regularly scheduled multi-topical discussion IS our segment! We both have a ton of new games to talk about, a bit of new music, blu-ray, and some of the most hilarious craigslist entries you’ve ever heard!

Again, I don’t have a theme this week because I don’t like being restrained by your stupid themes. Themes are a global mind control scheme thought up by the evil corporations. Well, I guess the theme this week could be considered a set of new music followed by a set of classics followed by another set of new music. See, the corporations have controlled my mind without me knowing. Great, just great. Here’s what’s on the show:

This week we wanted to represent what BFM is truly about, so we copped out and did a “list” episode! We’re all across the board, as we give our top nine things that drove us wild this year. In other news: Lil Wayne documentary, Japanese video game systems for  little girls who want to be princesses, flying dogs, blu-rays, graduation, and inter-dimensional travel!

We’ve also decided that google wave is awesome, and that everyone should join us on google wave while we record. It’s mega fun time!

In case you could tell from the subject title, Black Flower Music now has t-shirts! We’ve created a handful of T-shirts for you all to enjoy. In the future, we’ll probably expand to awesome things like stamps and binders, but for right now we think it’s best to just stick with t-shirts!

You know you’ll feel cool when you’re wearing one of Black Flower Music’s “I Am A Hipster” or “Music Is Lulz” t-shirts! Now you can not only be stylish, but people will look up to you!

Our merch store can be found here, or at the top of every page.

Here’s just a sample of the variety of t-shirts we offer.

Hope you’ve been enjoying our .5 series of podcasts! Every other week Tony and I switch up on hosting duties. This week, I split the podcast into three different segments. First I have some rock/punk alternative sorts of music, then I spin some hip-hop and turntablism, and finally I tie it up with some non-thematic odds & ends. Don’t fret, listener, it’s not nearly as polarizing as it sounds! I have to warm my way into your hearts and minds before I can hope to pull that off!
