Island Universe Story One is the first in what is an infinite series of chapters in this musical journey. The result of experimentation with a Scully 280 ¼ inch tape machine and the Teenage Engineering OP-1, the first Island is a collection of tape loops and edits. It is a deep breakfast buffet of star paste and quabbernautic brunchings. Read more about it. The music is visually represented by the micro-maximalist art of Kristi Sword and the succinct design of Mexico City’s NRML.

While I was at the Armory fair this past week in New York, I came across Leah Yerpe’s drawings. There was something really fluid and animated about them that made me stop and inspect the craftsmanship of each drawings. I was hoping I could buy one, but every single one of these had a little red dot next to them. Read more

Steve Grisé is a video experimentalist who has tapped into a visual interpretation of the song that resembles a digital artifact from a brain scan recording. The song title means Calculate, and a lot of it talks about the miniature strategies we create in our life. Something like the cold war that’s running in our brain.

La Mano Fria is a graphic artist who uses sampled imagery and re-configures them and in a way mirrors what hip-hop producers do with vinyl records. From these appropriated images, he reconfigures text and shapes to form something that’s in-between hand=printed posters and early digital artifact heavy graphics. These shirts are produced through Beams T in Japan.

I came across Paul Coors’ work a few years ago while doing a show at his art gallery, Publico. The concept and realization of all his work stands tall and makes you want to seek it out in the not-so-digital domain. He represents the Midwest and Cincinnati well.

The duo of Brendan Monroe and Evah Fan are one of those creative, powerhouse couples. Though two entirely individual artists, the influence they exert upon one another is subtle yet undeniable. Both create the kind of art that that makes you giddy with pleasure, while the lack of pretension puts you completely at ease. You get the undeniable sense that these are two people who simply live and breathe creativity and love every moment of it. Two amazing artists with a wholly individual take on life and the world around them. I had the pleasure to grill them both. Read more

I’m kinda obsessed with this track by Kansas City hipsters, Republic Tigers. Maybe it’s the Phil Spector-ish wall of sound harmonies or perhaps it’s the thumping bass riff, which drives the ear worm melody. Whatever. In these times of throwaway pop, it’s the well crafted and subtely produced songs that are truly memorable, and these guys have it in spades, as reflected right across their brilliant debut album, Keep Color.
