I went to see this chap from New Zealand a few nights ago and it was a truly dreamy experience. I’ve been listening to his music for a few years and his sound has seemed to get progressively spookier and psychedelic. He has a new album out that makes me feel like I’m lost in some kind of surreal woozy underwater animation. Try watching his rather unique videos for Forever Dolphin Love and It’s Choade My Dear.

Ever been to a market town in Great Britain? I have. They’re bloody brilliant. This is a brief but very amusing mockumentary about life in a British market town, made by Lee Titt in the olden days and discovered by Robert Popper and Peter Serafinowicz. Makes me laugh every time I watch it.

Lucy Cheung has a blog of strange things. When I’m stuck for inspiration with my artwork, this is where I go to spark my imagination. If you’re even remotely interested in ethnology, shamans, costumes, masks, tattoos, sculptures made of food or jellyfish, then this is surely the place to go. Read more

Another great publication from Drawn and Quarterly. This is a collection of beautifully drawn gekiga (like manga but a bit more sophisticated; like graphic novels in relation to comics) set in the pre-modern Japanese countryside. The stories mix universal themes such as love, lust and madness with mythical elements such as tree spirits and water sprites. Read more

I may be marking myself out as a bit of a nerd here, but I have a guilty pleasure in listening to the poppiest of pop music from the Far East, particularly Japan and South Korea. Perfume, an all-girl trio are my favourite group and they make ridiculously super produced electro pop music. Read more

She’s a rapper from Tampa Bay who is only 19, yet seems to be constantly producing excellent music. You can download free mixtapes from her website. She like to rap nice and quick over constantly shifting backing tracks. Fun fun fun. My favourite tunes of hers are Hot Girl, War Talk and Show My Ass.
It’s funny how after a lifetime of training and practice to draw and paint ‘better,’ many artists regret the loss of the sort looseness and crudeness they had in childhood. Able Brown has retained an unrefined hand, which lends his drawings and paintings a humorous and even subversive air. Read more
Sriracha is probably one of the most loved condiments these days, and this print over at The Best Part celebrates the spicy/sweet Thai hot sauce and its iconic status in our current culture.

You know, pictures featuring Bea Arthur, mountains, and pizza are the best, but there are still a lot of duds out there. Good thing Bea Arthur Mountains Pizza has collected the best of the best Bea Arthur, mountains, and pizza pictures all in one place.
The first album released by the Malian duo Amadou & Mariam, Dimanche a Bamako, bordered on exceptional, if not for its songwriting then for its sheer diversity. You’d be forgiven for approaching cautiously an album that draws its influences from Syria, Cuba, Egypt, India, and Colombia, as well as its own country – much like a restaurant that offers every cuisine on the planet: choose one and do it well, you’d argue. But the album is fantastic: so full of life, so catchy and so accessible. Read more
LA-based designer label Grey Ant has been under my radar for quite some time now, but the Spring 08 collection is what really made me a ‘Grey Ant junkie’. Read more

On this Virgin Mary HaloTech watch, the dial is a modern version of the nineteenth century art form of lithophanes, carved porcelain sheets that, when lit, deliver astoundingly detailed images. When the pusher is activated, the dial springs to life in 3D. The watch features a light-up dial, LED light, and afterglo effect. Read more
