We discovered this cat food called “Wellness” purely by accident at the pet store. This is the best cat food ever. Our one cat constantly pukes, and ever since we got this food its stopped entirely. The cats love this stuff, when you open the bag they come running to the chow bowl. On top [...]

Wow, super weird food porn video, reminiscent of some stuff Ministry of Sound has done in the past like “Satisfaction” by Benny Benassi or Gunther’s Ding Dong Song. Link via Turntable Lab Blog.

This looks fun! I like mini golf. Via We love you so. It has been 5 years since Timon van der Hijden, Zowie Jannink and Steie van Vugt decided to change the scene at La Bolleur – a former brothel in the city of Eindhoven. They literally transformed this inglorious lounge and made it their [...]

I like the little video preview for this album with the retro visuals and robot type explaining the theme of the songs. Described as: Nineteen (!) tracks from tv-intro-theme-tunes from yesteryear to irresistable electrofunk pieces straight from the streets. This is all never before released stuff from the archives of ED DMX. Buy it here.

Really cool blog and record label from Strange Life Records. Nice bits of analog music, vintage planes and UFOs. Love the aesthetics and sounds.

About a year late on this one, but this looks really promising, if they don’t destroy the story.

I really like this candid interview with Cody Hudson aka Struggle Inc. He has a lot of good stuff to say. I had a chance to work with Cody in 1999/2000 at Ecko Unlimited, and I found him really inspirational. Love his work.

Addicting and time wasting “Flame” drawing tool let’s you draw light and nebulous masses and then save it. Pretty fun. I can only imagine how cool this would be with a tablet or interactive drawing surface. Make your drawing here and stick it to the man. While you’re at it check out Peter’s other experiments [...]

From the brand’s long running print ads that redefine the “Absolut” metaphor in clever visual ways, to the consistent launches of cutting edge web campaigns dating back to the emergence of Flash.
