We’re currently working on a project for RIZ MC, a London based rapper / actor whose new album MICroscope melds together the conscious and subconscious, the government and the resistance, the music and the mind. It all takes place in a dark shadowy underground government agency – whose sole purpose is to investigate and document human neurological responses to different musical sequences. HEAVY DUTY AWESOMENESS.
Produced and Written by Swarm. Directed, Designed and Animated by Rival Schools.

Marketers are scrambling to develop campaigns to implement the two into current media plans. Speidlberg, if and when you produce Minority Report 2, make sure Tommy boy knows his #hashtags.
favtape.com lets you search and create your own mix tapes. I just spent the last hour creating a mix tape called “Back in my Precidia”. That was my ride back in the day and this was my music. How far back is ‘back in the day’? I guess you’ll have to listen and find out.
Here at the studio we’ve been kind of poking fun at each other about the music we listen to. I’m sure this will make me the laughing stock for at least a week.
