Oh and in case you didn’t catch this when a posted a while back:

OK Go = This Too Shall Pass (Passion Pit Remix)

Bob Dylan and John Lennon in a Car. Part 1

My friend Ben sent me this today and wrote this:

“I found this, because i am now partially obsessed with Bob Dylan. 
its not good, or interesting - its just, i wonder how much of the world was changed by these 2.  oh yeah, Dylan is totally drunk i think.”

I do wonder how much the world was changed by these two?

My sister turned me on to Luke’s Beard a week or so ago. He’s got a project going on called “A Lyric A Day” (displayed so beautifully at his tumblr), where he takes a lyric of a song and creates a design or photo inspired by it each day. It’s an awesome idea, and great implementation of discipline in art. Not to mention each design thus far has been nearly if not completely mind blowing. The above is probably my favorite so far. Though runners up have involved Lil’ Wayne. Anyways, get into it!

#ALAD018 Every Time I Die - The New Black

This is my everyday project for 2010. Taking one lyric from a song every day and creating art or taking a photo inspired from that lyric.

Two Door Cinema Club - Undercover Martyn Flexin’ It (Passion Pit Remix)

This week the remix I did for Two Door Cinema Club (an awesome band from Bangor, Northern Ireland that we had the pleasure of touring France with) was released as the B-Side to their 7” single released on Kitsune.

Awesome. I’ve always wanted something out on Kitsune!

With this remix I had a particular sound I wanted to go for - and that was Mariah Carey cruising in a suped-out Toyota screaming down the streets of Tokyo. I actually wrote this to the band after sending it in.

“Hopefully you boys will feel the R n B / Japanese thing i did with it. Just bounce up and down while doing circular hand motions when the chorus drops and you’ll get the feeling… “

I guess they liked it. They are touring with Phoenix, so going to watch them isn’t really an option. As its them and Phoenix. Win. Win.

Got turned on to this over at the amazing Aquarium Drunkard.

Here it is folks.

A mixtape especially for you! From me!

An amzing video from 4AD and their new 4AD Sessions. This third installment features one of my favorites: Efterklang. Their new album Magic Chairs just released the beginning of this week and is great. I’m catching them at Spaceland on March 16th and am pretty excited for it.

The music scene in Copenhagen seems like a really unique thing that I wish we could see more of everywhere. Everyone loving, playing, and sharing together freely. That is music.

Buy Magic Chairs.

King Charles = FD1 (blackcabsession)

“You’re the wax in my mustache”

There are few words that could actually describe King Charles. If it’s not his hair, it’s his mustache that does it for you. He toured with Mumford & Sons last year, and is now working on his debut full length album to be released this year. From what I’ve heard so far, I think it should be some pretty good stuff. He’s got uniqueness and originality going for him at least.

King Charles = Love Lust
