Welcome to my blog. I document my adventures in travel, style, and food. Hope you have a nice stay!
All in video
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.
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.
Fafi, the girl whose name now actually means 'fresh' in Dutch (no kiddin'), goes back to the roots of her first collection: all-out sparkles, rainbows and sparkling Fafinettes lounging about in rainbow-coloured panties and stockings.
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.
Artist Erwin Wurm and Claudia Shifer have fun in German Vogue November with a bunch of artistically used props.
I was floating around on an inflatable lobster in Egypt when the Kanye West x Spike Jonze short film 'Once We Were a Fairytale' dropped. But this little doozy is the perfect excuse to lay it on you anyway as the final post before the weekend hits.
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.
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."

"THIS IS SO GOOD IT MADE MY HEART SINK... LIKE A MIX OF THE FEELING IN YOUR STOMACH WHEN YOU'RE ON A ROLLER COASTER AND WHEN YOU WOULD SEE YOUR HIGH SCHOOL CRUSH AT LUCH TIME... THAT'S HOW THIS MAKES ME FFEL" (sic)
