Avalanche Athletic

From the moment I heard Run DNA, I was obsessed with The Avalanches, I bought a shirt that said 'Avalanche Athletic' and I wore it till it literally fell apart. It's been way too long and their second album is about to be released. Another artist I enjoy is Toro Y Moi. 'If I Was a Folkstar' was released overnight and is a great collaboration between the two. You can stream it HERE
I can't wait for the whole album to come out and fill this world with amazing sounds.

Classic

I love unique classic surf culture. My dream is to one day open a store that provides a whole experience for a surfer, from clothes, to boards to music and everything that goes with the lifestyle. I would stock different brands that are more off the beaten path and hopefully create my own line. One of those brands I would love to see in my store would be Mollusk. So simple. Delicious.

Beastie Boys

The Beastie Boys are amazing. Plain and simple. Their music grew as they did and change throughout the years. I can't put my finger on a favourite album but Aglio E Olio, Paul's Boutique and Hello Nasty are my top 3 and a great example of their range of music.

I was recently sent this site that contains every sample used on their albums. It is simply amazing! 17 samples were used on Shake Your Rump!

Grandfather - BMW 1956 R25

My Grandfather was a bad ass. He was extremely intelligent, a great cook and raced vintage bikes. My favourite was his BMW 1956 R25. Clean, simple, classic. His had a back seat and I would love to find another just like it. The search is on.

Bringing back sweet memories.

I haven't posted here for a long time. Life happened. Married, kids, job etc. I got caught up and got lost. It's time to bring it back. Put my finger back on the pulse and discover great things again.

"Old Man" Old man look at my life, I'm a lot like you were. Old man look at my life, I'm a lot like you were. Old man look at my life, Twenty four and there's so much more Live alone in a paradise That makes me think of two. Love lost, such a cost, Give me things that don't get lost. Like a coin that won't get tossed Rolling home to you. Old man take a look at my life I'm a lot like you I need someone to love me the whole day through Ah, one look in my eyes and you can tell that's true. Lullabies, look in your eyes, Run around the same old town. Doesn't mean that much to me To mean that much to you. I've been first and last Look at how the time goes past. But I'm all alone at last. Rolling home to you. Old man take a look at my life I'm a lot like you I need someone to love me the whole day through Ah, one look in my eyes and you can tell that's true. Old man look at my life, I'm a lot like you were. Old man look at my life, I'm a lot like you were.

MCA Tribute

Another Great Tribute

Chromatics - Kill For Love

The Chromatics released their new album at the end of March, hard to get at your record store but easy enough to get online. Title track is pretty catchy and the Neil Young cover is a great tune. So far, my album of 2012. I can’t remember if I like what I said I can’t remember it went straight to my head I kept a bottle by the foot of the bed I put a pillow right on top of my head But I killed for love

The Impossible Cool

I love taking photos. Mainly of random things I see. I try to minimalise what I see and take it out of its surroundings. One thing I am not good at is people. I came across this website, The Impossible Cool, years ago and it makes me want to work harder at it. Great photos of notable people. This photo below makes you think. All good photos should. What is Sammy thinking about? Does he know his photo is being taken? How did the photographer approach this shot? Keep asking...

For more great shots have a look http://www.theimpossiblecool.tumblr.com/
