For our last project of 2013 we helped out our music-bloggin' pals from OTIOBR and Heart & Soul with their year-end collaboration. Inside this zine you'll find the top 25 songs and albums of 2013 according to each dude, plus an interview with rapper/musician Mona Lisa, and a 2003 throwback presented by your very own e-clare and ramona. Find it on issuu here fo free and learn some new jams and songies.

here are some of my favorite albums of the year in no particular order (from top to bottom: jai paul - demos, saint pepsi - hit vibes, big baby gandhi - debut, lampgod and **Ł_RD//$M$ - ??LAMPGOD??**Ł_RD//$M$??**$$EXT8PE??, young thug - 1017 thug, SHINee - everybody ep).

a full list w/ write-ups will be coming out via an e-zine over the next couple of weeks, as a collaborative piece between OTIOBR, HEART AND SOUL, and other lovely friends. the zine will feature year-end stuff (top songs/LPS), in addition to a 10-year retrospective on 2003 (scary good year in music) and an interview with one of our favorite up-and-comers, mona lisa. we'll keep you updated on this process, and we look forward to showing it to y’all!

OTIOBR Returns Next Week

Y'all,

We took a few weeks off after the conclusion of our year-end lists, and are returning next week. Thanks for your patience and I hope you guys got really cool gifts for Christmas.

Here are some glitter unicorns to hold you over.

NEW SHIT POPPIN'

Admit it, OTIOBR's previous design was pretty corny. Well, we've got a new design that's certainly a lot more fun to look at (assuming you like the color green and 8-bit renderings of cities)! In addition, OTIOBR now has a TWITTER, which I'll keep relentlessly promoting for the next few weeks.

Dear Tumblr:

Hit the 300-follower mark a few weeks ago, and I meant to post about it, but things have been somewhat hectic lately. Just wanted to thank you guys for following this blog. Given that I only post one thing a day--none of which are cheesy reblogs--the number of followers this blog has attained makes the kid mad elated. Thanks for all the support, and I hope you guys keep reading. One day, OTIOBR will end. But until then, I'll keep bloggin' my little heart out in hopes of giving you new tunes to pump.

Here's looking at you, Tumblr. 

(Also, sorry I suck at winking.)
