Having Mark McGuire venture off to work with others who understand his sound is exactly would I love hearing and i’m sure fans of his and Emeralds couldn’t be more excited of result of this new one.
This Ken Camden song is a lot more playful than the one I posted in the past from the same album, one thing that bums me out though is that the rest of the record doesn’t really hint at this sound again, i’ll take what I can get though.
I hope you know i’m HUGE supporter of Apparat BUT the vocals on this track really do nothing for me, I mean he almost has lost all the excitement that he has built in his style instead I hear a bad Bono sad song, I still love you Apparat.
Really feeling this Tiger & Woods sound, that electric whistle sounding loop is tops.
As I would have suspected, the master typographer Erik Spiekermann, has a deluxe, modern house in Berlin. Some features include a full Bulthaup kitchen, a bookshelf that requires a hoisting harness to peruse it, and prismatic windows that allow warmth from the sun to pass through only when hit at a low angle. Sold yet?
On the fifth floor is the office of Spiekermann and his wife Susanna Dulkinys—a designer. The sixth floor is the kitchen and living area while the seventh floor is the bedroom. All of the surfaces of the house are painted a shade of light grey. It keeps the interior bright and cool but not cold.
Susanna Dulkinys on keeping the house’s interior free from clutter:
It’s like creating white space so you can free your mind and be creative.
Beautiful, haunting double exposures by Oliver Morris. Even the title of his Flickr stream, “Lullabies to Paralyze” conjures a similar feeling of uneasiness in me.
Gold Panda just announced his tour and is giving away a free unreleased track, maybe its an album track or maybe just something for an EP, either way that should make some fans excited.
There’s been a lot of buzz about Unknown Mortal Orchestra being a great live band but until now I only heard snippets and I think a remix. I finally put on the album and i’m a fan, I really enjoy how the drums are recorded and the fuzzy highs.
Subpop is sharing another Washed Out track from his upcoming album, sounds like something straight from the Ulrich Schnauss handbook to me.
I put together this short airy track yesterday and slowly disintegrated it under the name Heathered Pearls.
Some great work by Helmo from France. I especially like their Jazzdor 11 and Beast ModeFashion Animals projects. The type and imagery in their work seem to complement one another just right.
From what I can gather, Nizo is an app that brings the lovely Super 8 stylings to the iPhone. The app isn’t out yet, but right now I’m just mesmerized by the promo page. Its elegant implementation really stopped me in my tracks this morning. The app is put out by Image Mechanics, who have a pretty darn sexy site themselves.

The amazing Kevin Dart has a new Yuki 7 book coming out titled “Looks That Kill.” To celebrate its release he has teamed up with animator Stephane Coedel to produce a trailer for the second hypothetical film in the Yuki 7 universe, and the result is even more impressive than their previous collaboration.
Mr. Dart has been influential in my development as a designer, and his ability to create a fully realized world with Yuki 7 is truly inspiring. Enjoy.
