Dead Space the Movie

One of the best movies we have seen for a long time.

Lela Quesney and Jean Labourdette debuted their first feature length film. This documentary follows artist Psyckoze 100 feet below Paris, through the 69km underground labyrinth of the Catacombs. Dead Space is a portrait of an artist who has dedicated the last 25 years of his life to exploring, painting and sculpting in the Catacombs that run below the city of Paris.

Bully Records has recently released the Dead Space DVD.

The Stooges - "The Weirdness"

Travel With Flavor

Alongside Time Out and Deaf Dumb & Blind recordings, Madlib will release their fifth installment of the Other Side series, this time featuring Madlib, for what they describe as an audio tour of the City of Angels. On the CD/DVD, Stones Throws' own Peanut Butter Wolf will be the visual guide for your tour around Los Angeles, through sight and sound. The DVD will include a full length interview with PB Wolf about the 10 year anniversary of Stones Throw as well as videos from several other Stones Throw artists.

The Other Side series is an immersed travel guide that Deaf Dumb & Blind Communications and Time Out (the travel guidebook company) are creating with this CD/DVD combo. Each volume of the Other Side series is a combination of a well known producer and is accompanied by a visual handbook. Peter Fiennes of Time Out said, "We're extremely happy to be working with The Other Side and Deaf Dumb & Blind on this exciting new concept. We've always been keen to expand into music, CDs and travel on DVD, but The Other Side gives us the chance to do it all at the same time. The Other Side has lined up some great artists and we're convinced this will be a very successful and ground-breaking project."
