Kenzo Minami for Affinity Cycles Speaking of Japanese fun, walking down NOHO/SOHO last night we caught the pop up store WIRED magazine recently opened on Broadway, unfortunately we also caught them closing the doors just as we walked up. I was catching up on some bike news and saw that Kenzo Minami collaborated with Brooklyn’s Affinity Cycles that is on display in said WIRED pop up...

Positive Noise - Charm 12"
Flea Market Finds After a great brunch and catch up with the mastermind behind Classics Party, I randomly ran into the other homie Treasure Fingers as he was on his way to hit the Brooklyn Flea Market. We walked across the street and once inside I parted ways almost immediately after the site of some records. So glad I ran into my man and he hipped me to this. I went against my self imposed...

Music For Cloudplum
Recommended Listening / Dj Mix Two years ago I started a new series of mixtapes that were based on music that reminds me of the Fall season. Fall being my favorite time of the year, I found I favored music that somehow places me in that mindset. The series was also started for Cloudplum, a good friend’s design blog. I am currently in the process of making vol. three and with that said I...

Mexicans With Guns - On The Floor
Recommended Listening / DJ Mix The homie MWG sent this over to me earlier today and I am so excited for him. He has been putting in a ton of work since before we were roommates and now things are finally happening for dude. I am glad because my man has a gang of kids like only us Mexicanos can do. This was recorded for an RBMA sponsored event in San Antonio and is a part of their live...

GAWKING
So I am sure a lot of you caught wind of this today, as pretty much all other search engines don’t really exist in most people’s vernacular. Today is Veterans day. Google is known for their design work that usually celebrates many holidays, achievements, and numerous accolades the world over. When I logged on to Google today, I immediately noticed the flag looking as if it were on...

FAM Mixtape
Recommended Listening / Dj Mixtape FAM is made up of Sure Shot, Eleven, Lindsey & Miles. Their weekly party at Von is a such a great getaway from all things wack. This is their new mixtape made to promote the vibes of the night and it really comes through. I have had the honor of playing there before. I had an off night, but the whole night was kind of weird from the beginning. If you are...

Madlib Medicine Show No 10, Black Soul
Recommended Listening / DJ Mix / Disco Late last year, the Stones Throw camp announced Madlib will be releasing something every month for the year 2010. This seemed like an impossible feat, but knowing Madlib, I am sure he can do that for 5 years and not miss a beat. This CD is the most recent, and it hits close to home. The mix consists of Disco & Boogie almost exclusively with a little...

Headphone Thoughts.
Things have been going pretty well in New York City, or more specifically Brooklyn. Many thoughts have been crossing my mind about what is in store for me and where I will be in a few months. It is interesting to see things from an outsiders perspective in both New York and now Austin. I have realized that I don’t keep very many people close to me no matter where I am. There are a hand...
