Dance Like Shaquille O'Neal is an Italian music & culture blog that is a universal reminder that life is good. Every month they release a compilation of old Italian film clips accompanied with contemporary Italian beats. They are all fucking wonderful. I just wanted to share them with you here and promote their site coz they are great (March is my favorite).
My uncle Mark used to pick me up from school in a blacked-out 1997 Honda Accord outfitted with two 15" subs in the trunk and one of those blue-LED Alpine stereos. I remember sitting in the middle backseat, watching my reflection in the rear-view mirror vibrating into oblivion, listening to these songs while Mark and my sister would sing along. I remember the smell of stale cigarettes and McDonald's chicken nuggets and the shitty My Shaldan air freshener. I remember how I'd slow lightly hum a note to myself and feel the subwoofer kicking the air in my lungs. I remember the loose black screw stuck inside the center light fixture. I remember the hella annoying sound it would make every time we turned left or right. I'm appreciating all of these things now.
