We’ve just been sent the link to a very cool mp3 music mix compiled by the crew at Basic Sounds and featuring tracks by Gui Boratto [Arquipelago/Kompakt]; Maetrik [Cologne & Back/Treibstoff]; Alex Smoke [Snider/Soma]; Sten [Back Four/Dial]; Pantha Du Prince [Lichten/Dial]; Minisystem [Eat The House/Unreleased]; and Sami Koivikko [Pientare/Ghostly] amongst many others. I’m listening to it as I type and can personally attest to its outright funkability. It crackles, beeps and wavers in all the right places. Very tasty indeed. [illustrations by Kimberly Schamber]

Austin-based photographer William Hundley loves juxtaposing completely absurd and unrelated objects. Whether it’s fabric-draped people in mid jump or chihuahuas and Easter Island heads standing on cheeseburgers, Hundley takes an almost Dadaist joy in making random, giddily puzzling images. Read more
Kirk brings Molly to meet his family for a pool party but she doesn’t have her swim suit. Kirk, an average Joe, can’t believe his luck when gorgeous babe Molly falls for him even though he’s the first to admit She’s Out of My League. In cinemas April 1.
One of the things that hotels, and international hotel brands in particular, are often criticised for is a lack of identity, the feeling of being somewhere but nowhere simultaneously.

Baltimore’s Teeth Mountain create pulsing, shamanistic, tribal-sounding tracks from a bunch of floor toms, cello, mandolins, keyboards, saws, and whatever else they can get their hands on. The chaotic music they make is noisy, roughly-hewn, and impulsive-sounding, but that seems to be the point. They’re trying to evoke a sort of post-apocalyptic primitivism. It will be interesting to see where this collective takes their aesthetic.

The French maestro is almost single-handedly responsible for the success of both Daft Punk and Justice. The Midas Touch design references this with the golden robot (representing Daft Punk) and the golden cross (representing Justice) — the idea being that everything Busy P touches turns to gold.
