Film: Codehunters

A very cool animation directed by Ben Hibon who is the guy behind the unnecessary but cool “Tale of the Three Brothers” sequence in the new Harry Potter film.

I'm looking for an HD camera

Happy Holidays everyone! It's official. Break out the eggnog!

Anyways... I'm in need of an HD camera. Actually, I just want to know who owns anything that records at a HD quality. If you do, let me know.

In an effort to rededicate myself to the passion of art and creativity (which I bathed in when I was 16) I'm going to start documenting my projects. Shooting them in HD and cutting little fun videos out of the material, while hopefully driving me to create more stuff.

So help a brother out if you can.

Peace & Love

Quotastic!

Music: "Woods"

I've always loved this song and I'm so glad Kanye not only sampled it, but he kind of made it his own.

Ad: Memory Card Testing: Overkill Edition

This is ridiculous, but there are two things I want. #1 - That this track/maze (whatever) really exists. #2 - That we got to see the whole thing from a second camera angle.

Photo: Gavin Hoey

What I love about photography is that there are many ways to capture an image and there is always room for new tricks. Well, I've been learning a lot from photographer Gavin Hoey. Check out his YouTube page for photo tips and tricks and let me know if you're ever interested in trying his 15 Minute Photo Challenge. Yeah photography!

Today is my birthday. Like I've been doing for the past 3 years, I reformatted my blog. It's simpler, cleaner and hopefully will feature more of my own work. Don't worry, it's still about music, film, creativity and women. Enjoy.

Music: "Congratulations (Erol Alkan Rework)"

This remix just puts me in a good mood and gets the body dancing. I totally agree that MGMT has major club potential that they're not tapping into to. Oh, well... Happy Friday.

Music: Beethoven meets Salsa!

Sverre Indris Joner did an amazing job rearranging these classic pieces into spicy Cuban music. It's simply amazing and BuzzFeed has collected them together. Also, I think there is a CD in the making too.

Music: TOKiMONSTA

I'm seeing TOKiMONSTA on Nov 10th with Bonobo. If you like Flying Lotus you will love her.

Tokimonsta - The World Is Ours



"Born and raised in the South Bay area of Los Angeles, TOKiMONSTA (Jennifer Lee) was an unfocused pupil of classical piano. However, she has come to use this background to understand and create vast soundscapes and textures... Through the creation of beats, she is able to fuse the sounds of the past with her musical prowess into something avant garde." -- last.fm

Music: Stina Wäppling

Who is Stina Wäppling? I still don't have a clue, but I love her voice and she reminds me of a cute girl with samurai panda tattoos who used to work the front door at Ultra Bar. Hello Sweeden!
