Sean Daily is an English major from New Jersey now living in Las Vegas, the Other City of Lights. "I consider 'Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas' to be comfort reading, I like the al pastor tacos at Tacos Mexico and I count among my literary influences the Chainsaw from 'Doom'. 'RRRRRR! You don't like that, do you, Mr. Undead Marine! RRRRRR!'"

Shanoah Alkire is our Discordian at large. "Born in Santa Cruz, I grew up in Grass Valley and the Bay Area, and now lurk in Las Vegas. My literary influences include Ray Bradbury, Lewis Carroll, and Douglas Adams. I also program as a hobby, and currently maintain the Gtk port of Angband. You can find a rather old bio of me here."

Okay, here’s probably the most egregious example of namedropping, linkifying overload you’ll ever see in one sentence on this blog: “I heard a pretty good remix by U-Cef (MySpace here) of Ya Rayah by Rachid Taha Wednesday on DJ/Rupture‘s show yesterday on WFMU.”

Whew.

Anyway, I couldn’t find U-Cef’s remix. It’s pretty simple, or at least it seems that way to my untrained ears - just some hip-hop scratching between lyrics – but it fills in the holes in the song nicely. Not that there’s anything wrong with Rachid Taha’s original raï song. Observe thusly.
