Taylor McFerrin’s music has been a part of our soundtrack for years and we’re loving his new track and video, Place in My Heart featuring vocals by Ryat. Directed and shot by Simon Benjamin, the video takes us through the highs and lows of love and loss. – Moni Vargas
Videos We Love :: Seu Jorge “The Model”
Here’s a new video by the folks at What Matters Most. It’s part one of a three part series with the incomparable Seu Jorge and covers from his upcoming album, “The Model” (Roy Ayers’ “Everybody Loves The Sunshine,” Martinho da Vila and João de Aquino’s “Cirandar” and Kraftwerk’s, “The Model”). Loving the flow of Seu, the music & visuals – suave, easy. – Moni Pineda
Artists We Love :: Sol Guy – TEDx Toronto
One of the most gratifying aspects of working on our series is getting the opportunity to meet some TRULY INSPIRNG people who dedicate their lives to their creativity. Sol Guy is no exception, in fact, he’s become the how-to-guide on living, learning and loving. Don’t take our word for it, watch Guy’s “Call To Action” on TED Talks held recently in Toronto, Canada.
Parties We Love :: thePeople, Oakland
Back in 2008 I was invited to spin at thePeople, a classic dance party in Oakland, California, and it was hands down one of the best parties I’ve ever played. So much so that I was begging to spin again after my set was over. There were REAL dancers, the ones who get sweaty, clap their hands and throw them up in the air. It was just my kind of party. The collective who organizes this monthly gathering is made up of music lovers, artists & DJs. It is hosted by Ms. Nabong and heyLove* with resident DJs Cecil, Cali and Be Brown. This month the special guest is the knob-loving, awesome French DJ producer, Simbad (whom I had the pleasure of playing with in Tokyo). To get a taste of the great vibe of thePeople, check out the video below & listen to Cali’s mix here.
Music Videos We Love :: Snoop Dogg – I Wanna Rock G-Mix Ft. Jay-Z
I was gonna post this yesterday, but I thought what better way to start off a sunny weekend than with a BANGER. Snoop + Jay-Z most definitely deliver the goods. I’m loving this video + this beat is BANANASSSS! Crazy how much this video reminded me of my youth- Hip-Hop + Dancing + Arcades + Skateboarding. Nuff said. Enjoy!
