one genius interpreting another…of course i’m talking about bach and richter. on the other hand, gould sounds rather academic and self conscious; like a 50’s newscaster, but we can forgive him as he’s another genius altogether. now if you have any, keep your recordings of richter, a single CD copy of “richter in prague” goes for a meager $380. by dd

i don’t know maybe i’m too nostalgic, but i dig these guys in a very retro way. this song reminds me of riding my bike on santa monica blvd on a sunday morning getting an ice cream cone… by dd
en studio… for the man and the myth. the world is indeed divided in two, love and money. i wish it was otherwise but it ‘aint… by dd
it’s always tricky to accept that the lines we feel deep deep love for may not deliver when it comes to the apparently cool collab with also lovable h&m.; 1+1 should = 2 but hasn’t always in the past. we will have to wait until november 20th to sort out all of these mixed emotions with lanvin’s turn. in the meantime, enjoy the full collection video. by kl
the song is on heavy rotation at my place, and the buzz around the music video is at his top. genius viral marketing video/ iphone app. featuring a certain parisian trend elite.

not that the topic of the song is that invigorating but the delivery is indeed.
thanx to CM, i’ve been listening to the moldy peaches the past few days, and must admit they have something special. don’t love the unnecessary graphic verbage but they top the charts for not giving a shit and that is in itself quite cool. the favorite track by far is “new york city’s like a graveyard” a good one to get a sense of the band. the first time i heard “who’s got the crack” was by pete doherty on an unreleased copy of the babyshambles album, and was surprised to find it was a cover as it’s so relevant to mr. doherty himself. by dd
some sharp comment about chris cunningham and his ability to mold your emotions with visuals, sound and time isn’t necessary for this post. it’s a haunting piece. and if you’ve ever lived in new york i know it will push a button somewhere. by kl
must say i hate the usual bullshit brand videos. the typical, glorifying, amateur, behind-the-scenes of kate (at best) swinging her hair in the wind; but, inez and vinoode rocked this one. the locked down camera, dead simplicity, gorgeous silhouettes of stefano pilati, “invisible” track and daria in the best wig hairdo i’ve ever seen. drooooool. almost as hot as the fella kuti video in his trunks. by dd
