New Robinsons ad by Bartle Bogle Hegarty

2010-02-22T22:51:00.003Z

I was a big fan of Robinsons last ad campaigns which included the animated characters. The new 40-second Ad by Bartle Bogle Hegarty for Robinsons "Be natural" has been taken one step further. It opens with a bird as he flies into his tree-top house, whilst inside the house resembles that of a human abode, complete with human cuckoo clock.

The Zonders is an international artistcollective founded by Dieter Dunkel & Wolfgang 3000. Influenced by different styles of music it is their style to bond surrealism and society in a sort of cool but kitsch 80's theme. Or if you like you could call them retro futurists but i have never really liked that term.

The work they create is dominantly logos and vinyl art for electro bands which follow the same retro futuristic ethos. This works really well and boost their creativity as the music and image connect, to the piece whole.

They work closely with the french music blog The Valerie Collective who have been turning me onto fabulous mixes and opening new doors to music which i would otherwise shy away from.

I am alway hungry

2009-08-25T23:46:00.004+01:00

I have just discovered thanks to the guys fromFormFiftyFive this amazing portfolio site from Nessim Higson. The site has got to be one of the most smoothest and fast running sites of its kind that I've ever seen. Its functionality is amazing and pleases me in so many ways. I find it so refreshing to see site like this, sites that are different from the norm, and something a little more exciting than an indexhibit or Blogger. Note I do have a indexhibit site and I use blogger.

Nessim describes his site “The site shell is a reaction to standardization. It’s meant to challenge the concept of space and how it’s perceived within ye olde browser window. It will undoubtably frustrate some, but may contribute to a large laugh and / or smile for others. It’s more experiment and temporary in nature than stiff and permanent.”

Apologies from The Get Up Kids

2009-08-18T16:13:00.007+01:00

I've been a fan of The Get Up Kids since I was about 13 years old and have seen the word emo change from an "underground" scene of mainly skate punks and band kids into the blasphemous word it is today; with no thanks to the likes of "Fall out Boy" and "My Chemical Romance". Now who is to blame for this ugly change, could it be the MTV generation or the fact that anyone with garage band can make their voice and cheap guitar sound "half decent"?

Well apparently we have "The Get Up Kids" themselves to blame as highlighted in a July article on the Guardian website:

"Honestly, I don't often think about the state of emo," Suptic told Drowned in Sound. "We played the Bamboozle fests this year and we felt really out of place. I could name maybe three bands we played with. It was just a sea of neon shirts to us ... the punk scene we came out of and the punk scene now are completely different. It's like glam rock now. - If this is the world we helped create," guitarist James Suptic said, after looking into the crowd at a reunion gig, "then I apologise."
