Fuck yeah erything is cruising along for summer, we have been working real hard in the Zion studio...
Tonight my friend Hannah is putting on a "CRUNK" night.
its at the Iguana Bar in Kings Kross, there will be heaps of NEW muzik, time for a fuckin change... Honestly Sydney needs this kind of muzik to help us all start touching each other in the right places, just sayin... Im sick and tired of hip hop nights in sydney being the same boring hipster mix of (mos def, wu tang, tribe called quest etc)
Hey Ya'll
happy monday, I thought I would do a muzikal kind of post, I have been listening to a lot of music lately and I have some things I would like to share with you all
1. I think this guy killed hip hop a few months ago, just my honest opinion.
His name is Lil B, he makes his own beats, his raps are intense.
He releases a new song pretty much every day, he is the ultimate punk.
So yeah it looks like everything that commercial rappers do now is just going to be copying Lil B (notice how Kanye, Bun-B, Jay-Z etc are all on the releasing new songs and getting on social media bandwagons lately.... hmmmm) just a thing you should notice...
2. I think the future of hip hop (aka world muzik) is growing itself organically worldwide, here is a French example.
real fuckin tweaked, reminds me of a MC Gaffe performance, if she had a twin sister and diplo beatboxing for her...
3. Some lads in the south recently made a hit cartoon called Short Bus Shawty, its a parody of the Trap muzik coming from Atlanta, and even though its a joke, its kind of a good song...
pretty good write off, made me challenge my idols, so yeah nice one lads...
4. Finally, I finished the video of us rappin at the Indigenous Literacy Benefit last month
I know its a little strange, the idea of a Label having an app alongside twitter in the app. store. But hey, if it means you can listen to our music, look at photos, read our blog and comment, then why not right?
Hey Ya'll My boy Rico from North Carolina stopped by the past weekend, we were all just chillin listening to beats when we had the idea of recording a freestyle. Actions speak louder than werdz so let me know what you think...
Im working hard on new designs at the moment for this business as a whole entity... so yeh my brain is pretty fried, my heart is feeling so much love and pain and my soul is just blindly guiding me... here is a gif that shows my current feelings towards Pete Versus Toby
I recently opened a twitter account, @marcozirov I plan on saying all my opinions on there, really tie them to myself and not just throw the PVT blanket over them, follow me if you like to hear werdz from so high up you cant get any higher...
peace, love and ZION (256 Crown Skreet Sydney AUSTRALIA)

Me TWEETER and Damo TWITTTER playing in the sun last summer.
My good friend and Inspiration Matt B aka DJ Drug-Money melted this thing down while on the road in amerikka. Marco is going to flow on it soon. 俺の友人と直感Matt B (芸名:DJ Drug Money)はアメリカにいる間これを作った。マルコはすぐこれを何かに活用すると思う。
I think it will be good yeah?
Acknowledging that beauty exists in all things natural. Its every guys dream to meet a girl to smoke with.
Life on earth, a Natural history. Inspired by a D. Attenborough book i read.
地球の生き物。自然の歴史。D. Attenboroughの本をよんで、影響受けた。
The mobile technology we live with is beautiful. But it is a little bit sad that soon kids wont get this joke.
This is kinda big, sometimes you have to stand up for a legit cause and this is it. My friend Michael along with the Indigenous Literacy Project are holding a fundraiser, we are rapping this saturday night at Deadly Tunes, the event raises funds for Aboriginal Youth to help them with reading writing and comprehension.
Honestly I am so proud to be asked and couldnt of imagined a more perfect cause for the Pete Versus Toby rap debut...
anyways its this Saturday the 3rd of July, its in the El Rocco Room in Kings Cross, all money raised goes to the only legitimate cause in Australia:
Our bestest friend MC GAFFE had her fiends visiting from london, they are known as HOT MESS...

I can still remember when I first heard Gucci Mane. I was living in Birmingham, Alabama and driving my car down Interstate-20 towards Atlanta when all of the sudden on the radio came "Icy" by Gucci Mane and Young Jeezy. I couldn't believe that there was gangsta music with such amazing wordplay and vocabulary...
anyways I hope you all enjoy my favourite Gucci Mane songs
peace and love
Marco

While summertime is now long gone (not that I will have to remind anyone in Sydney after the past few weeks) I can present to you the latest Animal Collective video for "Summertime Clothes". It's beautiful harmony's and drops of synth will hopefully get you through the winter or at least remind you of warmer times.
The video is mega cool anyway, and this would be my favourite album of 2009 so far (Although I left my copy in New York so I only have it on my iPod).
