Photography: Emma Jönsson Dysell

Emma's fashion photography is a dark graceful poetic dream. Her simple but creative use of lines and skinny models is inspiring.

Luckily, her blog gives us a behind the scenes peak of her work.

Music: Breakbot

Listening to Breakbot just makes me happy. His remixes always get me dancing and his music has become a huge influence to my funky grooves. Ed Banger is a genius for signing him.

"Breakbot (aka Thibaut Berland) is a French producer and DJ born in 1981. After studying at the School of Graphic Supinfocom, he made short films (with Oury Atlan and Damien Ferrié called Overtime), advertising and videos.

Art: Scrabble's New Typography Makeover

This is so sexy. What a way to beef up a classic board game. I would love to see this done with Snakes & Ladders


"Designer Andrew Capener is ready to break your Scrabble board free from typeface tyranny. His gorgeous A-1 Scrabble Design Edition Board (conceived as a school art project while studying at BYU last year) gives Scrabble a modern design shake-up with a new board and customizable, mix-and-match fonts for the tiles." -- Good.is

Music: Civil Twilight

Civil Twilight has such a good sound, so mellow yet dramatic like classic Coldplay. I'm expecting big things from them. Plus I'm in love with their song, "Next to Me".

Music: "Stay Close" (RAC Mix)

I pretty much love everything remix artist/producer Andre Allen Anjos (aka RAC) touches and this track by Delorean has got me grooving. The mash of guitar riff and echoing vocals are amazing.

Music: "Vato"

I know this song is old, but my brother just recently played it for me and I instantly wanted to go out and kick someone's ass. So beast and it's kind of nice to hear B-Real bring'n the hook.

Future Mrs. Ex: Diana Morales



She's just smokin and a brunette. [MORE PICS]


"Diana Morales recently posed for Neiman Marcus... and is still pretty unknown at the moment if you’d ask me but if she keeps doing what she does best (and that’s unleashing her drop dead sexy little body in drool inducing pics for us all) her popularity will blast to the sky as fast as a rocket!" -- Brosome

A few of you know that I can actually cook and even though I don't post often enough about food...

Well, if I have the urge to try and make them, I'll document the process and post the results.

I'll say it again, Isaac Hayes is the man. I met him once in his old age at my office and seriously... he was still SUPER cool. Which is why this cover of one of his classics is so damn groovy. Way to go Ukulele Orchestra of Great Britain!
