About Face

Make something. Write something today. Paint a picture. Doodle on a notebook. But think about what you are making when making it. Make it mean something to you. And only you.

Have fun with it. You'll like it. Trust me.

There are a bunch of bands I've been REALLY geeking out on these days. Maps & Atlases, Cool Kids (yea, the new stuff is dope!) and my old workhorse favorite, Pretty Girls Make Graves. But strolling through the deep pool of skinny jeans and art rock that is the rcrdlbl blog I came across this band called Pivot. I've never heard of them before, but I watched this video and fell in love. These guys are brilliant. Perhaps I'm a bit biased, because the first sound I heard was that of a Jupiter-8. And they hit that geek soft spot in me.

I'll add the link to the rcrdlbl post as well. But watch the video and enjoy.

Warp, you owe me money. First, I was boosting DJ Mujava, now these guys. Send me some stickers or something at least.

Hope the weekend was fruitful for you all. I spent friday nite with Mikey and Chuck as they were in town. I woke up this morning with a balloon for a head. We got it in. Shout outs to Nelson, PJ, Wes and Rich. Hope you feel better soon homeboy.

And to all 32 of you, stay well, and keep your ears peeled for a some new music in a few days.
