I Will Be Here ft. Sneaky Sound System - Tiesto


I can't tell if this guy really dances like this or if its an effect, nuts if its real. All the city shots are dope and I really like how they did an equalizer effect on the buildings. I would love to see Tiesto live

Love Until We Bleed ft. Quest - Lykke Li



New twist on a great song. If you havent heard Lykke Li def look into this artist, she's got a great first album (and she's great live)

Test shots for the new Canon 7D

Vancouver - Testing the Canon 7D from brandon moza on Vimeo.



The video was shot in Vancouver BC by Brandon Moza using the Canon 7D. I can't believe the picture quality, it seriously makes everything look better. (music by Radiohead - "Go Slowly")

Lupe Fiasco released a mixtape



So much love for Lupe Fiasco! I'm so glad he has new material out. Japanese Cartoon kinda fell off the map, but the new mixtape Enemy of the State: A Love Story has some great tracks. I'd definitely download the whole album, it's not too hard to find on the internet.
Lupe Fiasco - Fireman (Yoga Flame)
Lupe Fiasco - Angels (Remix)
Lupe Fiasco - All the Way Turnt Up

Douglas Little for Dell




Dell collaborated with Douglas Little, creative direcotor of D.L. & Co., to create these limited edition versions of the Adamo laptop. Each one is based on a story that makes a series Little calls the “Tales of Technology”. The mother-of-pearl was based on the Princess and the PC, and the black one was influenced by Web Master/Master the Web. There are nine different designs, each is priced at about $5,000.

Super Sunglasses



Just stumbled upon this brand called Super Sunglasses. And I like! This set is the "Frances" flat-top edition from their Autumn/Winter 09-10 collection. Lol i'm such a sunglass fiend

Rihanna - Wait Your Turn Video

Rihanna - Wait Your Turn from Heatmaker on Vimeo.


It's nuts thinking about what Rihanna looked and sounded like when she started. I really love the direction she's taken

Jimmy Choo for H&M



Preview
H&M is collaborating with Jimmy Choo for a limited collection coming this November 14th. The line will include clothes, shoes, accessories, bags and a men's line. It will be available in 200 H&M stores worldwide (hopefully Seattle!). It's a very party-oriented line, lots of sequins, fringe and leather. Frankly, I'm not super impressed (there's a particular heinous pair of studded, reptile, puke-colored booties that I'm not fond of) and the price range isn't one I'd expect to see at H&M (clothes range from $69 to $249). However! I'm gonna give it a chance, I'm excited to see it in person and I do think it's cool major designers are trying to reach out to a greater market. Look for Sonya Rykiel for H&M in Spring 2010 and check out H&M for more on this line.

Wu Tang x Dubstep



Dubstep x a major artist whaaat? The sound has been slowly permeating mainstream music in a sort of watered down form, but it's still cool to see it on an album cover. I was actually introduced to dub by my little brother, HEY Z! I can't say I listen to it regularly, but I do dig the sound. The two tracks are from Wu Tang's follow up album to the 2005 album Wu Tang Meets the Indie Culture Vol. 1. Vol. 2 is releasing November 10th. They're keeping it pretty tightly sealed, sorry I couldn't find a version without a dj. Here's word on the project...

This groundbreaking album is trail-blazing the collaboration between Dubstep and Hip-Hop, with stomach-pounding, bass-thumping guttural beats, and gully, gritty and grimy lyrics that break into the next decade in the chapters of each respective genre’s history...this one of a kind compilation is at the forefront of an emerging cultural and musical blend that is taking place on the margins of the mainstream, but will be talked about for years to come…."

lol so maybe Wu Tang's intro is a bit too epic, but still check it out! And the bonus track is my favorite dubstep track, compliments of my bro :)

Wu Tang x Dubstep - Love Don't Cost (A Thing)/Still Grimey
Wu Tang x Dubstep - Deep Space
BONUS:
Caspa and Rusko - Jahova

Vincent Nord Photography




Just stumbled upon Vincent Nord photos and I had to post. The first photo is from a shoot called Warriors and the second is from Out of Colour. I saw the black and whites first and I was impressed, but I became a fan after seeing the cool use of color in the second shoot. Please check out his webpage Vincent Nord Photography
