Just learned about this. Dope new video (song wise and visually), strong beats and upcoming album dropping in June named “Love and Danger.” Download here. Really excited for this after watching this video. Can I have my own autograph? Kool Keith has been in the rap game since the ’80s, but he’s now reportedly planning [...]

Super stoked on this new tattoo Cris did on my bicep from his newest flash. Not the best photo (my apologies), but a brilliant and conceptual tattoo I really wanted to share. So stoked to have this, and so excited to get more work done by Cris now that we are living in New York… [...]
OMFG. Just found this randomly. I need to see this so bad. One of the most brilliant minds and cutting edge producers behind DnB besides Ed Rush and Optical. “He takes his music seriously” – Emcee GQ. WOW!

Black satin top hat w/grosgrain ribbon ($90.00) via Etsy: Herringbone (you know cats love herring, right?) News Boy Cap for CAT in black/grey ($68.00) via [...]

Dragon’s Lair was a video arcade game from 1983 by Cinematronics which featured beautiful graphics by ex-Disney animator Don Bluth. Seeing this machine as a child was pretty much the most amazing, magical experience – the holy grail of the arcade. I wanted this machine in my house so, so badly and used to have [...]

Fabulous Kickstarter project by Wiley Davis for a $50 follow focus rig. Pretty amazing looking CNC machining with powder coated components and a belt + pulley system. An equivalent at Zacuto costs upwards of $1,000. Check out the details and video on the KickStarter page: there are thirteen days left of funding, and the project [...]

This font is hot. Lovely retro library / 60s advertising feel with tons of OpenType swashes and ligatures. Check out the type speciman here. I wish the digital download came with that musty old book smell you get turning pages in used book stores or a public library. Bookmania is a revival of Bookman Oldstyle [...]

Never can get enough of Stephen Powers and his wit / aesthetic style. There’s something so satisfying about having any one of his pieces hanging on a wall at home – from the colors and simplicity of design to the sarcasm. The pieces we have collected over the years truly bring a smile to my [...]

I’ve started a few lists here on the blog, partly just so I can look up things I may forget, partly because it would be cool to do a “best of” for a the categories once there is enough content. I often look up, and see typefaces I like, but sometimes don’t get around to [...]

The classic is to go white when it comes to moulding. Why don’t you try something a little more bold? Go Black!

First up, this beautiful Nativity scene by House Industries. A bit pricey at $800 in my opinion for a non-Christian person, but looks oh so sweet. Available on their site or Heath Ceramics (LA or SF). Based on an Alexander Girard wood panel illustration, House Industries created this three dimensional tribute to Girard’s fascination with [...]

Absolute full-on rocking Italo mix from Flemming Dalum. Lots of Italo hits and precision mixing. This is such a great intro to Italo Disco if you don’t really know much about it. I’d consider this an essential, must have mix for any enthusiast. I’d have a hard time believing there’s not a track everyone can [...]

Sounds too good to be true, but it is. Fugazi has recorded almost all their live shows since the band’s inception on cassette, DAT, hard drive and CD-R, and now Dischord Records is releasing the 800 shows, starting with 130 shows December 1st. The shows cost anywhere from $1-$100, depending on how generous you feel. [...]

Keeping pixel pushing alive, and classy. Available here. They are looking very stich and bitch and heart warming. Curl up by a fire and snuggle up to one bit.

This is looking so tight, and hyper realistic. 11.8.11 I’m staying up all night. CAN NOT WAIT for this and Eler Scrolls V: Skyrim.

Someone please buy this for me for Christmas and stock it with the Bucks County rye “Dad’s Hat” I posted about earlier. Perhaps I could just make my own using the Sodastream Carbonator that everyone is raving about. Maybe I’ll just make whiskey soda. This machine is from 1960, shown at the Second Automatic Vending [...]

Wow. Limited edition House Industries Herman Miller collaboration with their Eames Century font and ornaments. The crate that the table comes in doubles as a storage solution, and looks gorgeous. More info here. Price TBD – I bet expensive. House Industries and Herman Miller are producing a limited edition series of 80 Eames wire-base tables [...]
