Curtis Mayfield - Curtis

First to recommend

2 people recommended this item

Description

Curtis Mayfield (wow, I should have brought out his albums on my last long drive). Curtis Mayfield could be played any place any time--even as a James Bond Theme song, that's how expansive his sound is. my pick would be "If There's A Hell Below We're All Going To Go"

Candy and tea bowls by Aida Dirse

First to recommend

3 people recommended this item

Description

Aida Dirse's hand-made decorative candy and tea bowls are amazingly colorful and sweet. There are 41 to pick from making it nigh impossible to choose just one! But honestly, I think they'd look best in a small grouping on a nightstand or coffee table.

Pop-Up ~ Yelle

First to recommend

Description

There is a reason I recommend so many female artist, it's because they bring a feeling to music which is of a color that male artists seldom (if not ever) attain.

In the case of Yelle and "Pop-Up" the pairing of GrandMarnier's contemporary dance production and Yelle's voice is spectacular, I'm not able to understand a word she sings (and I have to admit it's liberating not to have to enter the music through the meaning of words), and yet the sound, beat and texture of their collaboration is instantly addictive. Here's what happened to me, one moment a song from "Pop-Up" was playing in the record sore I was in, the next moment I was buying it, one moment I was driving with "Pop-Up" playing at normal volume, the next moment I had turned the volume up to the MAX!!!

What's more is here in this age of bespoke playlists where one can download just the one good song off any album, I feel "Pop-Up" is a really good album as a whole, it's well balanced between it's many moods.

For me Yelle is the missing link between Françoise Cactus of STEREO TOTAL and MIA. I do wish I did know what Yelle is singing about just in case she is the French version Kathleen Hanna or Le Tigre. (via Hear Music)

What I have to say about this t-shirt is obvious, I love this idea, taking M.C. Escher's print and using it on a shirt this way. (via FFFFound)

Not Lost In Translation : English to SPANISH

First to recommend

Description

What I'm listening to at work ^_^

If you want to be able to walk into a bar in any country in the world, order a drink, make a friend and see what happens then Not Lost in Translation is your the guide for the 21st century traveller. You'll be speaking the local lingo and the words/ phrases that they didn't teach you in school that will help you get into a club, get you a drink and get you laid. It will teach you to flirt, shop, order food and get home safely in a cab. It will also teach you how to say '@#$ off' and it will teach you to say 'I love you'- the worst thing that'll happen is you'll at least start up a conversation.

Girls Rock! The Movie

First to recommend

2 people recommended this item

Description

I'm one of the lucky few that have witnessed the rock girl revolution. It was in New York City a few years back and 11 bands from "Willie Mae Rock Camp" played a amazing show. Each band featured accelerating performances from girls between the ages of 9 and 18. The youngest groups were the most punk, the older groups felt fragile, shy, introspective and psychedelic in their ocean of self-awareness. The result was awe, admiration, and the humbling feeling that ones own generation was no longer relevant. That's when I realized it was time to step aside for this new wave of artists.

What I think is noteworthy is that " the Rock n Roll Camp for Girls" is not a place where girls prepare to become artists later on in life when all of their raw power has been drained by the adult world, it's a place where girls are artists in their own right, creating recording, and performing now while the rules can be reshaped by imagination, curiosity and the original sound of youth. Girls Rock!--Check it out
