The BPM watch
by What any MPC-lover needs. A friend and collaborator, Ryan Hemsworth, had recently seen me perform for the first time – I use an MPC2000 live – so when he came across this amazing little timekeeper, he knew that it belonged on my wrist. Santa? I’ve been a really good girl!

Fish Alley: an installation in Montreal
I rarely walk on the sidewalk. I find back alleys far more interesting. My favorite back alley installation is in Montreal, just south of St. Joseph, between Chambord and Brébeuf. There you’ll find a mini paradise, including two fish tanks joined by a transparent water tube, with real fish living inside. The lion statue’s pretty great too.
A friend and fellow producer recently introduced me to the Vancouver band, Data Romance. They toured with the Identity Festival last summer, sharing the stage with one of my favorite groups ever, Modeselektor. This gorgeous video of theirs features Lil Buck, who we all saw dancing with Yo-Yo Ma, right? Oh yeah, and Modeselektor’s new album is really, really good.
Robots, monsters and villains… oh my! Montreal artist, Tyson Bodnarchuk, makes you love all three of those things. He paints them, but also turns them into pillows and finger puppets. My favorites are his alphabet and Star Wars series.

I am really into Hong Kong action flicks from the 1980s and 90s. When I first moved to New York, there were a handful of curious friends who were also interested in watching movies such as City on Fire by Ringo Lam, which Reservoir Dogs was based on. How did they find videos like thus? At the legendary Kim’s Video in New York City. These days, City on Fire can be find online, and Kim’s is history. But all the videos that entertained the film geeks of this city for more than twenty years have found a new home in, wait for it, Salemi, Sicily. Yes, the southern island of Italy. Kim has recently relocated there, as this sad but heartwarming story about him in yesterday’s New York Times reveals.
