Welcome to my blog. I document my adventures in travel, style, and food. Hope you have a nice stay!
All in music
I've been working on a new project. Can't talk too much about it right now. What I can do is share some of the stuff that's inspiring me along the way.
Faris Badwan, the slightly eccentric frontman of the biggest hype of 2009 The Horrors, has been working on a side project called 'Lumina'. This is his self-directed video for their first (and only?) release "I'll be with you", a Black Lips cover.
Aux Raus are playing at the Diesel U Music party in BXL tonight. And by 'playing', we of course mean jumping naked from a giant inflatable tongue. We sent them some questions. This is the filth that came back:
Mixtapes by Lindstrom (feat. ABBA and Black Sabbath) and the XX (feat. the XX bootlegs, Four Tet, Skream, Burial and the XX edits)
Answering the age old question: "So what you done good?", Buraka Som Sistema goes back to Buraka -their original neighbourhood in Portugal- to throw their peeps a bona fide block party.
A mix by Justice? In 2009? Really? Yes! Well, kind of. Annie Mac re-broadcast an old mix from when Justice mixes were still a big thing, see?
We are giving away 1 duo ticket to the Anarchic spécial D : U : M edition in Brussels this Friday!
Wow. I've never really felt the need to post anything by Young Dro before (no offence, Dro). But the style of this new video for 'I don't know y'all' is going to be copied by Ad Men all over the globe, no doubt about it.
Florence & The Machine covers 90's Jesus-lovin' Euro Pop anthem by Candi Statton and the XX turn the the whole thing into an intense breakbeat-driven gem of a remix. Win.
Miuccia covers her clothes in cute kitties and naïve nudes. (Please insert your own Miu Miu - Miauw Miauw joke here.) David Bowie adds the mystery, mixed by Frederic Sanchez.
You know when there's a dream sequence in movies and, for some reason, there's always a circus with little people scuttling about, a femme fatale with freaky eyes and a ringmaster in a top hat with an ancient-looking microphone, grinning in a fish-eyed lens? The new video for 'I Cut Like Buffalo' by The Dead Weather is kinda like that. Only without the little people. And with Jack White as the ringmaster. He directed it himself, you know.
"If you wish to make an apple pie from scratchYou must first invent the universe."
THE FLAMING LIPS feat. KAREN O: I CAN BE A FROG Video, from the forthcoming album "Embryonic".
Marc said he's just 'really into pretty clothes right now'. Which is fair enough. But wearing your underwear on the outside is only OK if you can combine it with laser eyes and a strong Oedipal complex.
Click to listen to an album sampler of 'Man on the Moon - The End of Days' after the jump and watch the Letterman performance of his newest single with Ratatat.
