Ladies and Gentleman,
I've traveled over half our state to be here tonight. I couldn't get away sooner because my new well was coming in at Coyote Hills, and I had to see about it. That well is now flowing at 2000 barrels; it's paying me an income of 5000 dollars a week. I have two others drilling and I have 16 producing at Antelope. So ladies and gentlemen if I say I'm an oil man, you will agree.
Now you have a great chance here, but bear in mind: you can lose it all if you're not careful. Out of all men that beg for a chance to drill your lots, maybe one in twenty will be oil men. The rest will be speculators -- that's men trying to get between you and the oil men to get some of the money that ought by rights come to you. Even if you find one that has money, and means to drill, he'll maybe know nothing about drilling; and he'll have to hire the job out on contract. And then you're depending on a contractor, who will rush the job through so he can get another contract just as quick as he can. This is the way that this works.
I do my own drilling. And the men that work for me, work for me and they're men I know. I make it my business to be there and to see their work. I don't lose my tools in the hole and spend months fishing for them. I don't botch the cementing off and let water in the hole and ruin the whole lease.
I'm a family man. I run a family business. This is my son and my partner, H.W. Plainview. We offer you the bond of family that very few oilmen can understand.
I'm fixed like no other company in this field, and that's because my Coyote Hills well has just come in. I have a string of tools all ready to put to work. I can load a rig onto trucks and have them here in a week. I have business connections, so I can get the lumber for the derricks. Such things go by friendship in a rush like this. And this is why I can guarantee to start drilling, and to put up the cash to back my word. I assure you, ladies and gentlemen, no matter what the others promise to do, when it comes to the showdown they won't be there.
Now, when one thinks of hot rhythms, swervin' basslines, and dance wizardry, the name Bird Peterson surfaces again and again. He is the boy genius who has tickled the hearts of every club, DJ, mixtape, radio show, and blog that he has been in contact with. A true hero, Mr. Peterson is here to remind the world that there are still many fresh and vibrant new acts in dance music, his being of main focus. The so called "Wizard of the Dance Scene", Mr. Peterson, or Andrew Hoke as he is sometimes known, is a beacon of hope in a world filled with aimless basslines, distorted synths, inproperly used acapellas, and thin kicks. His sound is as majestic as the horse he rode in on, complete with dazzling saddle and urban flintcraw.
The story of Bird Peterson and his conquests begins in the depths of Houston, Texas. Bird Pete , or "Old Shep" as he has been called, began enjoying dance music at a very young age. His parents made him go to skating rinks to get him out of the house so they could have sex. Bird found that taking his anger and confusion to the rinks was the only way he could properly fill the void left by his folks. This void was later filled by boobs. But he enjoyed the smell of new skates, the sounds of Battletoads coming from the arcade room, the taste of Birch Beer (a crude combination of Big Red and Coca-cola), and the thriving sounds of the duo Wrex - N - Effect.
Ladies and Gentlemen, allow me to drill and DJ on your land, and my good people, i promise only the finest in prosperity and trunk popping.
From Serie B (Translated with FreeTranslation.com)
We live in a full world of blogs and pages with themes free that, they as come, they go. And an arduous task results to separate the grain of the straw in that prone and uncertain space to the mediocrismo that is the music of dance underground. But always certain personages exist that excel and they call the attention. One of them is Bird Peterson.
Servant in Houston and resident in Austin – "Austin is a great city for the music", comments–, Peterson evolved musically in the center of an imaginary triangle whose edges were the scenes of the punk rocker, the music of dance and the rap: "It touched the battery in a band of jazz, sang in an of punk rocker and produced beats for my friends MCs and, besides, punctured, so was just in the middle of all". And, probably, it was dropped for some rave that another. And the fact is that Bird discovered the passion by the kinds of dance through a mixtape –Curve Style– of one of the pop music of the festival in norteamerica, Danny the Wildchild, the "only head of my love by the DJing and the music of dance".
Puncturing jungle and house, and producing hip hop, could not be otherwise that Peterson fused all those influences in a conglomerate that drinks of that and more. And the fact is that if by something has noticeable is for do him not nausea to the rock as source for its remezclas. Suffices with listening its version of, of Chicago –a hit by own right–, to realize the why of its success. "Simply I want to do powerful themes, and that I do. I utilize any thing that can function. The rock music –already in and of itself epic– functions of form increible. The form in which be created the original theme decides if is a hit or not", comments me on the matter.
Although the relative fame of Peterson have arrived through the web, has managed to put in the market a few singles that, to day of today, they are exhausted. But he himself subtracts importance to the matter: "(My vinyls) are not sold badly, but only they pay the following that produce, new you feel and some pair of slippers". And the fact is that despite that nowadays we can measure the success of a producer by the number of discharges of a mp3 to 320 kps, that of Austin a little tired of that status seems of "Internet celebrity". The discharges do not pay the rent: "That is well, but I am prepared to be a fame in the real world. It is not that want to swim in money, simply I want to be able to pay the bills to do this by always".
After signing works for small seals as Flamin.. Hotz or Nasty Mix, Peterson prepares a battery of launches for this year after the –pleasant– distils of its remezcla for Malente and Dex in the seal of berlin Exploited, a connection that, promises us, will continue in the future.
It prepared to give the "great leap", Bird Peterson has already ready a new one EP, Your Parents Till Making Sweet Sweet Love, and will publish its new long duration this summer. In the meantime, will be visiting this side of the puddle and the distant lands of Australia. We will remain attentive, because all aims at that this will be the year of the bird
