NYCK CAUTION "Basin" release

*THE SYNDICATE DOES NOT EXIST*

Nyck Caution"Basin" (video)
"My life's a film and the scenery's cinematic," Nyck Caution rapped on his Disguise the Limit standout, "Basin." Fittingly enough, the Pro Era rapper has now offered up a bizarre and kind of bloody short film to support the song.

The video starts off with the rapper, face down in a snow-slicked forest scene, his nose gushing plasma. A hazy beat and some lines about an insomniac's troubles float above the visuals, which retrace Caution's night at a club show. There, he watches a doppelganger rock the mic for an adoring crowd before getting involved in a corridor smooch fest.

It gets a little complicated from there, but you can sort out the rest of the bobbled narrative down below, courtesy of Noisey.


OLLIE KRAM for Yume Magazine

*Warning: PIRATE RADIO presentation*
But in a smoking hot shoot for Australian magazine Yume, the Russian bombshell upped her game, flashing way more flesh than ever before.
After briefly covering her lady bits with a blanket and a shirt tied around her waist, the brunette thinks better of it and decides to embrace her birthday suit.
The black and white shoot sees the babe draped against a windowsill as she smoulders into the camera.
A minimalist wardrobe never looked so good.
During the last series of Game Of Thrones, the stunner is dubbed "too old" for paedophile Ser Meryn Trant's tastes when he visits the brothel she lives in.
In the run up the hit show's new series, fans have been hotly debating the possible return of Jon Snow.
HBO
The heartthrob was shown lying on the ground at the foot of the wall in the latest teaser trailer, in which Cersei Lannister promises bloody revenge, but some claimed they saw him riding on a horse towards the end of the clip.
No doubt fans of the Night's Watch will have everything crossed he makes a comeback.

CAT'S EYES "Drag" release

*THE SYNDICATE DOES NOT EXIST*

Cat's Eyes have shared the violent, uncompromising video for new track 'Drag'.
The project - helmed by the Horrors' Faris Badwan and Rachel Zeffira - will release new album 'Treasure House' this summer, and it looks to be a hugely creative return.
'Drag' is an engaging piece of songwriting, with the video building on these themes in a dramatic, explicit manner.
Shot by James Lawes, the pair play a couple who relationship is disintegrating in violent fashion.
It's not an easy watch...
'Treasure House' is due to be released on June 3rd.

JUNIA-T ft. Briskinthehouse "My My My" release

*THE SYNDICATE DOES NOT EXIST*
Junia-T"My, My, My" (ft. Briskinthehouse) (video)
Toronto MC Junia-T is hard at work on his upcoming full-length Son of a (Drum)mer, and after dropping the record's leading single "My, My, My" last month, he's followed it up with a video.

Directed by MWorks and featuring Briskinthehouse, the new clip sees the rapper deliver a message focused on the dynamic between music and art from street corners and inside a gallery.

"This song is about living how you want to. Despite who the world may want you to be, never lose self," Junia-T said in a statement. "I wanted the visual to highlight the fact that music is also art. Musicians and visual artists live similar lives."

While awaiting more details surrounding Son of a (Drum)mer, watch the video for "My, My, My" in the player below.


FLATBUSH ZOMBIES "This Is It" release

*THE SYNDICATE DOES NOT EXIST*

Flatbush Zombies"This Is It" (video)
Beast Coast hip-hop crew Flatbush Zombies filter out their 3001: A Laced Odyssey in full tomorrow (March 11), but you can inhale one last pre-release preview in the form of a video for hazy album cut "This Is It."

The clip is simple, yet mysterious, and finds Meechy Darko, Zombie Juice and Erick "The Architect" Elliott bouncing around an all-white sound stage before being apparently engulfed in a 4:20-friendly mist.

Despite its hard-hitting snare clack and snickety hi-hat rhythm, the song gels on an ultra-relaxed piano melody to score lines about being winners or, in the case of Zombie Juice, "Mr. Fuck-All-Day."

You'll find the video, which follows previous single "Bounce," below.


ROSTAM "Gravity Don't Pull Me" release

*THE SYNDICATE DOES NOT EXIST*
Rostam"Gravity Don't Pull Me" (video)
Earlier this year, Rostam Batmanglij left Vampire Weekend, and the musician and producer has wasted no time sharing a selection of one-man offerings under his simple solo pseudonym Rostam.
 
We've already heard "EOS" and "Wood," but now he's delivered another new track by the name of "Gravity Don't Pull Me."

It retains the airy melancholy of the previous singles, drifting out of the orbit of ordinary pop music towards something a little more intricate and interesting. Bubbling synths and crystalline croons come together in the new ode to broken hearts, and according to Rostam's Instagram, an accompanying video is expected out later this week.
 
For now, though, hear the audio for "Gravity Don't Pull Me" in the player below.

UPDATE (3/11, 10:00 a.m.): The video has arrived. It was co-directed by Rostam and Josh Goleman and features a choreographed sequence from Jack Grabow — a dancer that Rostam discovered thanks to an improvised dance to Vampire Weekend's "I Think You're a Contra" that he posted online — and his dancer colleague Sam Asa Pratt. Watch the clip below.



BAAUER ft. PUSHA T/FUTURE "Kung Fu" release

*THE SYNDICATE DOES NOT EXIST*

Baauer"Kung Fu" (ft. Pusha T & Future) (lyric video)
There's just one week left before beat monster Baauer delivers all the big booms of his Aa LP, but he's offered us a few tastes of what's to come. A video for previously teased Pusha T/Future collaboration "Kung Fu" has now popped up as well. Sadly, it doesn't actually find the trip whip, whip, whippin' it up together.

The newly loosened lyric video has a camera scouring various neon-lit entertainment districts and shipping yards full of containment units, tying somewhat into King Push's tales about "wide world of snort." To help the global market suck up the lyrical info, both Push and Future's lines are brought up onto the screen in Chinese, Arabic and Russian.

You'll find neon cowgirls, a few hovering drones, and the lyrics to "Kung Fu" down below.

As for Aa, the album drops March 18 via LuckyMe.

 

LASER "Disco Night Drive" release

*THE SYNDICATE DOES NOT EXIST*
Laser"Disco Night Driver" (video)
Laser released their debut full-length Night Driver earlier this year, and now the band have offered up some visuals to go with the almost title track "Disco Night Driver."
 
The Toronto-based indie supergroup featuring Lisa Lobsinger of Broken Social Scene, Paul Pfisterer of the Beauties and Martin Davis Kinack of Transistor Sound and Lighting Co. get captured on film for the new clip, performing in a retro wood-panelled room.
 
Adding some extra vintage flare are the rainbow-coloured lights reflecting off a disco ball, perfectly complementing the shimmery synth-pop tune.
 
Night Driver is out now on Foreseen Entertainment. Watch the video for "Disco Night Driver" in the player below.

HOME ALONE – text by Eden H.

I met Mario a few years ago in Italy but between our ever changing schedules and travels, the timing was never right until I ended up in my place a few months ago.
Just a few days before my mom’s stroke, I had a conversation with her about one of my seemingly random excursions and she realized it was the first time she’d been home alone for any period of time. I realized, neither had I. There were either roommates, friends, boyfriends, dormmates in college, or family, and we both agreed it wasn’t good nor bad, it just was.
Not too long after her accident me and Mario got back in touch with one another and the timing couldn’t be worse, or better. Since we’ve spoken over the years and I always admired his style, I felt comfortable having him over to document the scene.
From five people down to one, both me and my mom are for the first time home alone, but in that sense we’re not alone after all…
She always used to walk around the house in her underwear so while she’s away in rehab, she can vicariously do that through me. And if she’s never able to again, i´ll settle for her coming home and telling me to put some clothes on.

DAILY PROPAGANDA: Terror Documents

*Warning: PIRATE RADIO presentation*
Abu Abdullah al-Britani
Abu Abdullah al-Britani
Leaked ISIS personnel files on foreign fighters have revealed top secret data about British terrorists.
Yesterday an Arab news source obtained 1,736 documents that have been stamped with the sinister black flag of the 'caliphate' which has cut a swathe of terror through the Middle East.
Details about two more have now emerged.

Abu Abdullah-al-Britani

William Hasmo Clinic, who went by the pseudonym Abu Abdullah al-Britani, is thought to have been killed in Dier ez-Zour.
The jihadist - who was feared to be one of The Beatles militants behind US journalist James Foley’s killing - had previously claimed Allah makes beheading victims “easy”.
Al-Britani - who fled the UK for Syria earlier this year - made the horrific claim while admitting he was ready to die fighting for the Islamic State.
He told of his terror training and revealed his fitness regime to keep fit for battle.
Chillingly, he even bragged that “wrist exercises” made it easier to cut off enemies’ head.
Mystery surrounds the identity of the 21-year-old British fighter, identified by the nom de guerre Abu Jibril al-Britani.
He is a Briton of Bangladeshi origin, who was just 18-years-old when he arrived in Syria.
He lists his Sharia knowledge as basic and, when asked what role he wanted to perform, wrote ‘fighter’.
These are the fighters revealed earlier:

Junaid Hussian

Junaid Hussain, from Kings Heath, Birmingham, is a former computer whizz kid and was ranked third on a US kill list.
He was previously jailed for hacking Tony Blair’s address book and blocking a government anti-terror hotline with prank calls.

He used a range of encrypted messengers to talk to contacts and persuade recruits to join ISIS.

Abu-Hussain-al-Britani also known as Junaid Hussain

It is understood the 21-year-old was killed in a RAF drone attack last year.
Before he died he was planning attacks on the UK with his wife Sally Jones, a former punk who is still on the run.
Jones, who now calls herself Sakinah Hussain, was a guitarist in all-girl rock band Krunch.
But she now wears traditional Islamic dress and has swapped her life on benefits in the UK for Raqqa, the Syrian stronghold of Islamic State.
The data has his fighter name “Abu Hasayn al Britani”, his mother’s maiden name, his date of birth, the fact that he has a secondary level education and was previously an “electronics specialist”.

It also reveals that he entered Syria in the city of Jarabulus having travelled through Turkey and Pakistan and names the recruiter that brought him into the IS fold as Abu Al Taj - Tel Abyad.


Reyaad Khan

PA Reyaad Khan
Still from a militant video posted on YouTube of Reyaad Khan, a British citizen fighting for Islamic State

Khan was 21-years-old when he was killed in an RAF drone strike in Syria in August.
The ex-student had travelled to Syria from Wales in November 2013 and later appeared in a notorious IS propaganda film titled “There is no life without jihad”.
Khan, from Cardiff, was believed to be the brains behind a plan to attack the Queen and other dignitaries at an event in central London.
PM David Cameron said Khan and Hussain had been planning terror attacks on “high profile public commemorations” in Britain this summer and posed a direct threat to the UK.

Reyaad Khan

The pair’s plans are thought to have included an attack on an Armed Forces Day parade in London in June, which was foiled by the security services.
Speaking in the House of Commons Mr Cameron said: "There was nothing to suggest Reyaad Khan would ever leave Syria or desist from his desire to murder us at home.
"We had no way of preventing his planned attacks on our country without taking direct action."


A picture of a man with a heavy machine gun, believed to be Khan, emerged online soon after his death.
It was taken in the Syrian city of Dier Ezzor, which is occupied by Islamic State ,

Abdel Bary

Abdel-Majed Abdel Bary, 25, who was once a budding rapper, is thought to be one of 50 ‘disillusioned Westerners’ who are now fleeing the terror fanatics and thought to be somewhere in Turkey.
It is not yet know why he has turned on ISIS – or vice versa – but it is understood he managed to escape by disguising himself as a refugee and crossing the border during the chaos when ISIS retreated from Tal Abyad last month.
He faces death if captured by ISIS and prison if he returns to the UK
Bary joined ISIS two years ago and rose quickly through the ranks.
In August last year he was pictured with the severed head of a man, reportedly in Raqqa.

Abdel-Majed Abdel Bary
He turned his back on music to join jihadists

He was brought up in Maida Vale, west London, and his father was believed to have had close connections with Osama bin Laden.
Before he became radicalised he was an aspiring musician and his tracks were even played on BBC Radio 1.
However once ISIS took hold he renounced his musical ambitions for Allah, he has previously said.
He left his family home in 2013 to become a militant and it was believed for a time that he could have been Jihadi John.
Bary uses his Twitter account to post chilling anti-Western rants and has also promised death to all the ‘infidels’ – and ‘beheadings in their own backyard.’

DAILY PROPAGANDA: Herceptin & Tykerb

*Warning: PIRATE RADIO presentation* Nurse with patient having a mammogram
Seven British women saw breast tumours vanish a week and a half after diagnosis
Doctors have completely wiped out cancer in patients just 11 days after they were diagnosed.
Experts hailed the results of the breakthrough twin attack therapy as "staggering" and "mind boggling".
Medics said the lightning fast eradication of their tumours is the fastest ever response to a treatment.
Usually, patients have to be prescribed a drug for months or even years to see such dramatic results.
But doctors were stunned to see cancer disappear after they decided to try combining two cancer drugs to tackle tumours before surgery.

In a world first, seven British women saw their breast cancer tumours vanish a week and a half after being told they had the disease.
Incredibly, one of the seven had a tumour as large as 3cm completely destroyed with the powerful cocktail of two existing cancer drugs.

PA Breast cancer drug Herceptin

Tykerb

A further 11 British women were stunned to see their tumours shrink to leave only "minimal residual disease".
Experts said the development could revolutionise treatment by sparing thousands of women chemotherapy.

The "amazing" findings were presented today at the European Breast Cancer Conference in Amsterdam.
Describing the moment medics realised what had happened, breast cancer doctor Prof David Cameron, of the University of Edinburgh , who helped lead the trials, said: "It was only when the pathologist was scratching around in the lab saying 'Where is the tumour?' that it became apparent that there was no tumour."
He said they still did not know for sure why the two drugs worked so well together.
But the suggestion is that they can better work together to block cancer cells from multiplying, kill them off and stop them from coming back.
And Prof Cameron said the combination therapy results would have "implications" for the treatment of other cancers.

He allegedly worked for Saddam Hussein’s Military Industrialisation Authority where he specialised in chemical and biological weapons.
It comes after the Obama administration launched a new strategy in December by dedicating a commando team to target ISIS leaders in covert operations in Iraq.
US airstrikes are targeting IS chemical weapons infrastructures, including laboratories and equipment, and special forces raids focus on chemical weapons experts.

Dan Kaszeta, a former US Army chemical officer and Department of Homeland Security expert, said: “More than a symbolic attack seems to me to be beyond the grasp of ISIS.
“Furthermore, the chemicals we are talking about are principally chlorine and sulphur mustard, both of which are actually quite poor weapons by modern standards.”
Last month a top military official confirmed ISIS has made chemical weapons in Iraq and Syria.
James Clapper, director of US national intelligence, extremists used mustard gas in the Middle East.

Cheng Le wanted to buy ricin online
Cheng Le wanted to create "simple" and "easy" pills to murder people
Cheng Le, 22, was intercepted online by investigators trying to buy ricin.
No more than a few grains of the poison can kill a human being.
The court heard how online Le wrote: “If you can make them into simple and easy death pills, they’d become bestsellers.”
Chillingly, Chinese national Le warned he would be “trying out new methods in the future” and “it is death itself we are selling here".
He added: “The more risk-free, the more efficient we can make it, the better.”
He was arrested in December 2014 after prosecutors said he contacted an FBI covert employee online using an encrypted messaging service and asked if he sells ricin.

New York City student Le was sentenced to 16 years in prison in Manhattan Federal Court on Tuesday (March 8).
His parents wrote letter urging the judge for leniency and called their son, who had been accepted to several Ivy League schools, immature.
But Judge Alison Nathan said the “horrible, serious and quite terrifying offence” required a severe sentence.
No one was harmed by the twisted plot to produce the death pills after investigators tracked Le on the Dark Web – an online criminal marketplace.

Le said in court: “Not a day goes by where I don’t think of all the things I could have done.”
Le’s sentencing came after his conviction by a jury in August on charges trying to buy ricin as a weapon, postal fraud and identity theft.
The news comes after software programmer , 31, was jailed for eight years in September for trying to buy ricin online.
He was inspired to buy the poison after watching the hit Breaking Bad TV series.

"In the morning I opened the curtains and told him to go out and do some work,” Benea said. “I told him he was not any kind of man and I grabbed his balls.
“It was not my fault that he pulled away and that’s when it happened.
“I thought maybe that some ice would solve the problem, but he insisted on calling an ambulance. He was pretty annoyed."
Benea, from the village of Dragomiresti, Romania, said she was fed up with being ignored by her husband of 15 years.
Ionel remains in hospital recovering from his wounds in a stable condition whilst police investigate the attack.

I am longing. I feel that all around freedom is disappearing. Things are getting more regimented. I am longing. For freedom.

Sydney based photographer Ryan Pike provides an insight into his work and his secret camping spot deep in the Blue Mountains. Both of them are magical. “It’s nestled amongst ferns and vines right beside a creek with clear swimming holes and beautiful waterfalls. During the day we swim, explore, carve sticks and do bushcraft. When the sun goes down we sit around the fire and cook roast veggies while drinking honey whiskey. It’s pure magic.”
