Steven Wilson
Steven Wilson just did the latest cover for The Fader magazine which really caught my eye. Fader’s art director — and occasional Lost At E Minor contributor — Phil Bicker led me to Wilson’s website. I’m really impressed with how prolific he is and how he’s created his own style that looks a bit 70s mixed with right now. [see also the illustration work of Barcelona-based artist, Alex Trochut]

Finnish photographer Ville Varumo is as selective with his palette as a painter. Some of his images even look like paintings with their psychedelic lighting or almost Impressionistic backgrounds. Read more

Scanners’ new single Salvation
I love this track by London based rock group, Scanners, which is off their latest album, Submarine. Having toured with acts such as The Horrors, The Wedding Present, The Charlatans, Electric Six, and Juliette & The Licks, Scanners could well blow up in 2010. Figuratively speaking, not literally. No, that wouldn’t be fun.

I live the upbeat, feel good tempo of the new single — A Hundred Hearts — from Philly group, The Swimmers. Off their latest album, People Are Soft, this song is a strangely fitting anthem for the blustery day outside.
