Summer & Its Breaks

So, the weather has gotten its shit together over here in New York lately, and it's increasingly hard to stay in on a computer taping away, whilst there are babes in shorts riding up in down the breezy parks these days. I'm doing like all my favourite music blogs, and going on a hiatus! and you should too! get out, for fuck's sake, it's fucking SUMMA!


I'll be writing more stuff for Platform though, and Chief as well, and shooting people with my lenses, because nice weather makes you do that.

But the best part of this little break, is possibly the work me and Hems (at City-Slick) are getting started on : 60 French Girls (Can't Be Wrong). It's going to be fucking A-team, because we're gathering the best creative heads we know to spew out bollocks on this project!

If you want in, shoot us an email.

Peace, mofuckas!

Heartbreaker

Heartbreaker - (n)
1. Someone who breaks hearts.
2. Girl/Guy amazingly stunning and out of your league.

when MSTRKRFT teamed up with John Legend on their Heartbreaker track, I don't even believe they thought it would be this fucking good.


The Laidback Luke remix is available for free download, thanks to the good people at RCRD LBL.

Don't Stop Til You Get Enough

My favourite MJ videos/hits ever. This needs no explanation. Sorry Discovery, next post's yours.

A Sigh Of Relief

So, Loud Mouth received a beatdown the other day, and complained about it. Womp Womp. If you can't take the heat, stay out of the kitchen, dumbass. This whole ordeal just conjured a whole bunch of people who ask for way too much trouble, read the full post on HERE.



Note to Hilton, nobody gives a shit.

On a more positive side, I've posted up my first Chief Mag blog post today as "adhd", under a stream of smoke, babe judging, and laughter: The people at Bacardi are fucking DOUCHEBAGS.

Next post will be about Discovery, I told myself that a month ago!

The Boys And The Girls, They're Still Pretty

Finally, the long awaited issue 5 of Regia is available, accompanied by Urban's LSTN No.5 - What these two have in common? The Big Pink.

Hey You: Oh, I Get It.

Sometimes it's okay to be really into cheesy pop ballads that threaten to occupy whatever's left of your head-space. Sometimes you could even go as far as to spread it among your mates and make it one of your summer 'choooooooones'. Thank You, Pony (2x) Run (2x).

Fuck.

I've been carrying on this bluff for about 7 months until I finally found the balls to call myself out on it (cause frankly, I just couldn't look at myself in the mirror anymore, dreadful, I know) - but I really, really, dislike Crystal Castles' music (the two of them are fine to me). And anyone who reminds me of them just makes things worst. but, ANYWAY.
Does anyone else think that Kap Bambino is just a cheap version of Crystal Castles?



I do.

I Found Jeffer

It happened yesterday, around eleven and a half - I've done the unthinkable and actually recorded DJ Mehdi spinning it at that Vice May bank holiday sting (thing) - PATETHIC. But I can sleep at night now, bless.
Less boring 'update' - some 'bratpack' kids in Brooklyn recorded a tribute to a tribute mashup of The Breakfast Club and Phoenix's Lizstomania,
Smugness: The 'girl with the really obvious nose ring' who portrays Ringwald gets annoying at about the first minute in.
Choreography: -NAY, I am generally concerned about the kid in the blue shirt grinding/gesticulating on the fences like a mad cow disease patient. DO IT RIGHT OR DON'T DO IT AT ALL. Apart from him though, the video edit makes everyone else look really good.
Execution: 10, actually mistook it for a feature presentation. Feel like most of the job was left to the editors though. SIGH.

And about Sebastian, it's more of a NEED than a want. Goddam it.

"Just Tell Them To Fuck Off"

Birthday celebrations involving toffee cake // sociology exams // "skating" // Tenemos El Triplete! // climbing on roofs // dancehall // hip hop // reggae // electro // vodka sans redbull (sans redbull!) // wet kicks // 'sorry mate, not on the guestlist' // Sebastian Akchoté in Une Nuit Au Bordel // Get The Fuck Up // & Platform's Launch Party!

Need to drop off the guns at the office on monday, so my pictures will be up sometime this week - and I fear some of them might not be safe for work, cause I gave CHRIS & CIORAN my cameras to play with for about an hour. WHOA.

This Is Becoming A Sin

Skipping revision to 'try' salvia, and overplay Sneaky Sound System. This ain't good.

Breaking News: Pedro Died & It's All Over.

Yellow journalism? Yes. But guess who joined Ed Rec a few days ago?! BREAKBOT.

Title, is of course, only fueled by rumours. Ask around folks, ask around.
