Ambling Alp
I saw this video when it dropped a few weeks back but it wasn’t until revisiting it that I really became fond of it. There has been a lot of make-up / goo / dripping paint and plenty of psychedelics in videos the past couple of years that it becomes boring or un-interesting. However, Yeasayer’s […]

Deadbeat Summer
A little Hockney-esque colage of a make-believe pool on this hot July day…Summertime in the city. The public pool is calling my name…until then I’ll be listening to Neon Indian on loop. Neon Indian – Deadbeat Summer

We Have Band! Paint YO FACE!
I’ve obviously been a little slow on updating this here blog of mine, partly because things have been crazy & partly because when I stumble upon something cool I don’t feel as though me re-posting (poaching) is really the thing to do…but then again I guess re-posting and finding the cool is what blogging is […]

Wah Do Dem & Sean Bones
I posted a while back about Sean Bones’s small boutique label S/S Friends and while checking out some of Sean’s new music I stumbled upon this trailer for ‘Wah Do Dem’. The new indie film, in which Sean plays the lead role, follows a hapless guy named Max (Sean) who wins two cruise tickets, but […]

My Friends x SXSW
SXSW Interactive & Film are just about wrapping up and musicians from around the globe are dragging their guitar cases and stage egos into Austin, Texas this week. I’ve enjoyed following quite a number of Twitter friends this past week, all of whom have been traipsing around Austin attending countless panel discussions, film screenings, conversations, […]

B.I.G.R.I.P.
Via RCRDLBL.com – This is when the video camera shines…capturing special moments so we can re-live them over and over again, even if we weren’t there in the first place. Here is a GEM and very appropriate for 12 years and one day after B.I.G. perished…

Heard & Not Seen
Well known designer/illustrator Damien Correll has been compiling a number of mixtapes under the title Heard & Not Seen. Just last week I listened through each mix without once wanting to reach for the next track click (and I’ve often got a case of the ADD while listening to music). Good news for you, it […]

Passion Pit – Sleepyhead (Unofficial Video)
Above is an Unofficial Video for Passion Pit’s ‘Sleepyhead‘ single. Like the Familjen video I posted a while back, this clip does a great job of using vintage/archived film clips to create something new and original. There is something foreign about some of these clips that feels odd and relevant at the same time.

Creatures!
It has been a long time coming but I finally finished up the You Can Be A Wesley music video for their upcoming single “Creatures”. You can see the brand new video at YouCanBeAWesley.com or in my Portfolio section! Thanks in advance for checking it out!

Sheet Rock…
What I meant to say was Shit Rock…or something along those lines. Garage Rock maybe? Either way I’ve discovered and rediscovered some noisy grainy rock this past week…somewhat appropriate for the week? First, The Soft Pack is fun! I saw them last week in Philly with a couple dozen people…and I liked it! Below is […]

Althea & Donna
The new music jitters always add a little flavor and spice to an otherwise dull, cold, rainy winter evening…and most often all it takes is a little digging. This evening while browsing the myspace of Mulatu Astatke, a very well known Ethio-jazz musician (who I discovered for the first time last year thanks to the […]
