Technology We Love :: Pomfort iPad Slate
Hopefully, in the not so distant future the good folks at Pomfort put the metal on the pedal and release this super cool app + slate combo.
Clubnights We Love :: Evolution
Evolution, a new club night featuring DJs Reborn & Selly at Southpaw, makes me miss NYC. You see, I used to spin with these ladies for years in the Ubiquita crew. We had a long run on Thursdays at Guernica in the LES, which was hands-down, one of the best dancefloor-friendly parties I had the pleasure of not only attending but spinning. All of this to say, that these ladies along with directors Kim Knox & Deshawn Maxwell are family and this party is one to be at! – Moni Vargas
Musicians We Love :: Campo
¨I really respect and like the body of homeboy’s work. ¨ That is the thought (verbatim) that swirled through my head about Uruguayan producer and composer Juan Campodónico. I first learned about him through the music of fellow Uruguayan Jorge Drexler and soon after realized he was also involved with Peyote Asesino, Bajofondo… and I had been listening to some of their songs unknowingly. I’m slow on the uptake sometimes. -Jennifer Cendaña Armas
Gary Baseman :: Off the Hook
During this studio visit in Los Angeles, Gary Baseman shares insights into the characters and themes of his upcoming solo show at the Jonathan LeVine Gallery in New York City from March 5 – April 2, 2011.
Mixtapes We Love :: Ana Tijoux + Elefant
Ana Tijoux + Elefant Mixtape | What better way to kick off the weekend than with a bright new banger from Grammy nominated Chilean microphone controller- ANA TIJOUX. Your weekend will thank you, trust!
Exhibits We Love :: David Ellis, New Image Art
David Ellis will be presenting new works at his latest exhibit, Mola Salsa at New Image Art in Santa Monica. After seeing a few of the images, I immediately thought of reptilians and ‘transformers’ wrecking havock in a war of good against evil. Please interpret at will and join us for the reception on Saturday, February 5, 2011, 7-10pm. – Moni Vargas
Music We Love :: James Blake
James Blake has been on our radar for a minute. We heard him on Gilles Peterson’s Worldwide show back in May and since have been sent emails, links & singles from friends who can’t wait to share his soulful goodness. In the wake of his eponymous debut full-length album, we have a new music video for his single, The Wilhelm Scream, an older Limit to Your Love as well as an album sampler if you need any more convincing to pre-order. Enjoy as much as we have. – Moni Vargas
