I’m ashamed to admit that after 26 years on this planet, I only recently started listening to the outstanding musical offerings of Tom Waits. However, it is true that he does sound a little like the Cookie Monster. This video collides their worlds to joyous effect.

After sifting through his songs, I’m convinced that Madeon, a 17 year-old producer from France, is a genius. This man has the kind of skills that makes every other teen with FL Studio want to weep.

Gregg Gillis turns up the heat a couple of notches on Feed The Animals by using so many samples that your head will be spinning by the time this 53 minute romp is over. Returning from the glory of the now famous party LP, Night Ripper, Girl Talk is back with another outstanding mash-up adventure. Feed The Animals, is out now! You can download the digital version (320 Kpbs) for whatever price you want. If you pay over $5, you get an added bonus of one big mp3 file with all of the tracks connected. If you pay over $10, then you are pre-ordering a physical copy of the CD, which will be out later.
I’ve always loved observing lava lamps. The way the two liquids form strange figurs somehow calms me. I get the same effect from looking at Alberto Seveso’s photography series, Sequence Verdastra. He’s poured coloured varnishes into a fish bowl and captured the impact of the two fluids with a high speed camera. The result: very trippy! Read more
Illustrator Paul X. Johnson’s portrait of Rachel from Blade Runner really was the piece that won me over, but the rest of his noir-ish work is pretty spectacular too. Read more
I don’t get Flight of The Concords. I just don’t find it funny. I also don’t get most comedy these days. It’s so derivative and clichéd. Everyone wants the same laughs. I like comedy that pushes the boundaries in strange ways. Fonejack is one underground unit that have had me rolling around on the floor with their real life skits. Read more

Really dig the Lovecraft vibe of this Capriole collection by Iris van Herpen. The weird wormy thing looks like a painting I did inspired by by Yog Sathoth.
