Main Attrakionz - Perfect Skies (Produced by Friendzone)
Lets see where do I begin with the talented duo known as Main Attrackionz, they hail from the west coast and have been putting mixtapes out since 2009. Recently they released the 808 dark grapes II mixtapes which is one of my favorites for 2011, and was also reviewed by Pitchfork (it received a 7.5 out of 10 a little low to me). The sound you get from these guys is amazing light dreamy pop samples with a lyrical and melodic flow that is almost impossible to describe. Looking at the two you'd think that they would be some cheesy ghetto rappers talking about trapping and smoking weed, but looks can be deceiving, they deliver intelligent views on the way the world is. Personally I don't know why the buzz surrounding this duo is not bigger they have a strong cult fallowing and with recent collab's with great producers and the Harlem kid ASAP Rocky hopefully that will change. Check the guys out if your into laid back chilled out beats with a positive message.

The Milk District
This up in coming neighborhood located in downtown Orlando on east Robinson street is full of that gritty street swag that we all have seem to fall in love with these past few years. Along this small strip of stores you will find everything you'll need to have a fun Saturday or just any day you have off. There's a vintage clothing and home decor store that goes by the name Etoile Boutique, where you can find everything from a 1986 superbowl tee to fun knick knacks and all sorts of jewelry from local designers. I have purchased several kick ass tees and a one of a kind Marine Cops jacket ( I will post pictures later) all in all if your looking for some serious an I do mean serious swag check this place out asap! Located right next the boutique is a one stop shop for DJ'S know as the Drop shop this place is over whelming with all the different genres of electronic music they have to offer you. But don't stress cause the staff here if highly informed on anything that you could ever ask and are more than happy to help you and walk through what ever you need be it finding that certain sound or just answering simple questions. They also have a 24/7 podcast that you your self can rent to have your very own session. Now after shopping for vintage tees and searching for that sought after Aphex Twin LP your probably hungry right? Have no fear cause Sportstown Billiards has you covered, the atmosphere this place has is amazing divebar/pool hall feel puts you in the mood to drink one of the many crafted beers they have to offer and sit back and grub out on the amazing food that comes a a reasonable price we all love. So come on down and enjoy the local vibes that this small but flavorful downtown scene gives off. Look them up on facebook http://www.facebook.com/pages/The-Milk-District/32535681822 .
