Another greatly awaited action movie from Wachowski brothers enters the scene cycle: group TBG released a first cam of Speed Racer with Emile Hirsch in the main role. This group wasn’t a scene one in the past but they are a regular one now with their releases being pred at various sites, so we will post about it here. The quality of this rip is prety good, but it contains (Dutch) hardsubs in the image. Besides that, the image is really clean, colours very vivid and it’s all very neat for a first cam. You can expect a propered version without encoded subs soon.

The story begins with Speed Racer who is a young man with natural racing instincts whose goal is to win The Crucible, a cross-country car racing rally that took the life of his older brother, Rex Racer. Speed is loyal to the family business, run by his parents Pops and Mom. Pops designed Speed’s car, the Mach 5. The owner of Royalton Industries makes Speed a lucrative offer, Speed rejects the offer, angering the owner. Speed also uncovers a secret that top corporate interests, including Royalton, are fixing races and cheating to gain profit. With the offer to Speed denied, Royalton wants to ensure that Speed will not win races. Speed finds support from his parents and his girlfriend Trixie and enters The Crucible in a partnership with his one-time rival, Racer X, seeking to rescue his family’s business and the racing sport itself.

Here’s one more music post from entrants in our competition. Since this album has been posted by two people already, I guess it will be pretty popular. Written by Ertunc.

It’s been too damn long since I’ve heard some Blueprint. His release three years ago, 1988, was dope! He recently hit us up at DX to release his new EP for free online (CD version available online which includes instrumentals). Print puts his vocals over beats he made using the Funkadelic’s discography. Word!

I started making beats out of as much of their music as I could and putting lyrics to them; some stuff i wrote on the spot, other stuff was ideas that I had played with before but never finished. I had the record pretty much done for a couple of years but I felt like I didn’t have any audio of them speaking that really explained what they were about, so I put it on hold until I could find some interviews. Once i found them i finished it up, and here it is.” - Blueprint

Blueprint is a rapper and producer from Columbus, Ohio. He is the owner of Weightless Recordings and also signed to Rhymesayers Entertainment. He is also one half of the group Soul Position with producer RJD2. Over the span of several years, Blueprint has risen greatly in popularity.

This Friday is an another boring day in the scene with no great releases so I’ll just publish next article submitted for our Music competition. We’ve received over 40 posts by now which means there’s enough music articles for the whole next week.

We won’t reveal any stats till Sunday so if you want to win, you need to be really active. This post was made by user Chinballs.

One of my favorite kinds of music, bar none, is old fashioned soul. And Al Green is right up there with Marvin Gaye, Otis Redding, and Teddy Pendergrass as my favorite singers. So I found it really awesome that there was a new Al Green Album, and thanks to (assuming) one-time group LAYITDOWN, we get it 3 weeks before it hits store shelves!

Al Green’s long-in-the-works album co-produced by the Roots’ Ahmir “?uestlove” Thompson and keyboardist James Poyser finally has a release date. “Lay It Down” is due May 27 via Blue Note and features guest vocals from John Legend, Corinne Bailey Rae and Anthony Hamilton, plus contributions from the Dap-King Horns, guitarist Chalmers “Spanky” Alford and bassist Adam Blackstone.

Reverend Al Green (b. 13 April 1946) is an American gospel and soul singer who enjoyed great popularity in the early- and mid-1970’s. “Let’s Stay Together” and “Tired of Being Alone” were two of his biggest hits.

Tracklist:

1. Lay It Down (feat. Anthony Hamilton)
2. Just For Me
3. You’ve Got the Love I Need (feat. Anthony Hamilton)
4. No One Like You
5. What More Do You Want From Me
6. Take Your Time (feat. Corinne Bailey Rae)
7. Too Much
8. Stay With Me (By the Sea) (feat. John Legend)

Advanced Micro Devices plans to release processors with 12 cores, which changes its product road map and kills earlier plans to release 8-core chips. The 12-core processor, code-named Magny-Cours, will be targeted at servers and is due for release in the first half of 2010, according to the company’s updated road map announced Wednesday. The chip will include 12M bytes of L3 cache and support DDR3 RAM, according to the road map. AMD is jumping from a 6-core chip code-named Istanbul, due for release in the second half of 2009, straight to a 12-core chip the following year, an AMD spokesman said. Until last month, AMD officials repeated plans to ship the 8-core server chip, code-named Barcelona, in 2009.

Montreal has now been replaced by Istanbul, followed by a 12-core product in 2010, the spokesman said. AMD is also planning to release a 6-core chip code-named Sao Paulo in 2010. The chip will include 6M bytes of L3 cache and support for DDR3 RAM. Sao Paulo chips could meet the need of systems that don’t require 12 cores, Allen said. The new chips will be more power efficient as they will be manufactured using the 45-nanometer process, an upgrade from the 65-nm process currently used to manufacture Barcelona. Even with AMD’s altered road map, Intel will remain formidable. Intel shipped 78.5 percent of chips in the first quarter of 2008, while AMD held a 20.6 percent market share, a slight gain from the 18.7 percent market share it held in the first quarter of 2007.

MySpace has launched a data-sharing project in which the social networking site will open up its code to partner sites Photobucket, Twitter, eBay and Yahoo. The MySpace Data Availability Initiative will involve the creation of a new section of the site which will manage the data sharing. Users will access the system and share data on an ‘opt-in’ basis, meaning that only information which the user has chosen to share will be viewable by others. The information will then be available for use on other sites, allowing users to display MySpace profile information along with photos and video files on other participating sites.

All user data will remain hosted on MySpace, allowing the information to be updated as users change their profile information. “The walls around the garden are coming down, and the implementation of Data Availability injects a new layer of social activity and creates a more dynamic internet,” said Chris DeWolfe, chief executive and co-founder of MySpace. The move is designed to complement Yahoo’s open strategy initiative, in which the company offered to open its own applications to outside developers. The two sites are also working together as part of the OpenSocial project. “Yahoo believes in an open internet that gives users the flexibility to make their web experiences as relevant, social and personalised as they can,” said Ash Patel, executive vice president of platforms at Yahoo. I’m looking forward to first lawsuits where people complain about their personal data being shared all over the internet…

This is the third music post brought to you by entrants of our music competition, this time by user hidden behind nick Chinballs.

This is an older release, from April 19th, but it is one that was a big hit critically and commercially and as such is a release of definite importance that wasn’t released on rlslog before.

If you follow underground hip hop at all, you know who Atmosphere are. Slug, the MC, and Ant, the producer. They are one of the leading groups in “backpack” rap, and we have the group WHOA to thank for this release, Atmosphere’s 6th studio release as a group.

Atmosphere is an American hip hop duo from Minneapolis, Minnesota. The members are rapper Slug (born Sean Daley, September 7, 1972) and DJ/producer Ant (born Anthony Davis). Active in various forms since 1993, they are one of the most commercially successful and long-lived independent hip hop acts.
