OH LAND - WOLF & I (LIVE)

Timeless - London Timelapse by Ed Beck, MB Films

This makes you think London’s somewhere on the Ecuator - constant summer - sun beaming day and night.

Ok, London CAN be this beautiful. But let’s not overestimate it.

Especially when it’s past mid-May, summer’s coming in a couple of weeks and I’m still wearing a coat, scarf and gloves.

PS: Yes. This is a desperate attempt to make working on the final major project seem exciting.

Less is More: The Wallpaper Chair

Thought wallpaper is just a girly old-fashioned accessory to make your walls pretty?

Don’t underestimate this one.

Especially when uninvited guests turn out at your one-bedroom overpriced flat and spare chairs are a little bit of a problem.

Is this worth it?

The Beatles - Tomorrow Never Knows

Turn off your mind relax and float down stream

It is not dying, it is not dying

Lay down all thoughts, surrender to the void,

It is shining, it is shining.

Yet you may see the meaning of within

It is being, it is being

8. 6 impossible things before breakfast

1. In my previous life I was an almond croissant sitting in a French bakery

2. You can actually play a song in your head. Pinch you ears to move to the next or the previous one.

3. It makes total sense to have vinegar on chips.

4. A machine which connects to your brain, prints out all of your memories and organizes them in a proper book.

5. In a month and a half I will have a full-time job.

6. Eating ice-cream makes you warm and keeps you thin.

Fun. - We are young

Now look what those bitches can do! :-O

Belleruche @ Queen of Hoxton

I was a lucky bastard to be offered a free ticket to Belleruche’s album press launch the other night at Queen of Hoxton in Shoreditch. My dear friend, who’s THE actual lucky bastard for having won the free ticket over a competition the band was running on Facebook (and which I knew nothing about … pff, ignorant?), couldn’t make it … so …

I landed in this dimly lit basement, with a complimentary sparkling wine in my hand, hoping to see those Northern Girls or Alice doing a Minor Swing or something. But little did I know that something different and unexpected was coming up. When they said “new album”, they really meant it. With more focus on the turntables than ever, unfamiliar rhythms were coming out of that brick with buttons: slightly uncomfortable at first, but really catchy, quite hypnotizing in fact, in just a matter of seconds. You could notice people stopping for a few moments, not knowing how to adjust their body movements. All this was doubled up by a much heavier bass, contrasting with the soft, girl-like voice of Kathrin deBoer. Each song would start in her angelic notes and grow more and more aggressive towards the end. A well managed balance between pure vocals and cutting edge electronic production, I might say…

There was no way you could passively sit in a corner and not move a toe, at least.

Watch the video below, you’ll see what I mean.
