downhill skateboarding can be WAY more extreme than any X-Games crap. Blog writers are often prone to hyperbole, but I think this this is one of the most exhilarating things i've ever seen.
I'm a huge fan of self deprecating lyrics in hip hop, it's like antacid for all the gangster posturing on show these days. Fatlip used to be the king of the genre, but Canadian rapper Shad is taking charge nowadays... His new track is a peach, nice beat, nice lyrics and all, but the video, yowzer.... you should recognise it unless you've been under a rock for 25 years.....
really cute idea showing how photoshop would look in the real world.
Went out last night. The free champagne is taking it's toll on me this morning. Hooked up with my boy Ben Wilson, who's knocked together some pieces for volkswagen, and the launch of their new Scirocco (very nice by the way). The party got messy with the arrival of the Dazed & Confused crew, but thankfully i have pictures. Peep them here.
I've been listening A LOT to the third LP from New York electronic purveyors Ratatat. The hardest thing is trying to fit this album into a genre, which also makes it the best thing. There are elements of Aphex Twin, Daft Punk, Air, Hot Chip, Sky and Jean Michelle Jarre in there. My current favourite on the album (cannily titled LP3) is Mirando, primarily for the bleeps, but also from the badass video, which cuts scenes from predator to make the bad guys look like they're wigging out. Lovely.
a really simple and well executed advert for jeep, but i can't help thinking they need more examples and the 'venn' crossover portion could have been a bit larger.
