THE GHOSTS OF SHOPPING PAST: brian ulrich

this is a really cool project from photographer BRIAN ULRICH.

he takes on these really interesting theme projects, this one entitled "the ghosts of shopping past."

the photos in this project document currently abandoned malls and other stores in various states of decay. What comes out of it is an eerie vibe of a post-apocalyptic consumer united states. It looks like everyone on earth just disappeared then someone took pictures of it ten years later.

really neat project and he has a lot more like out.

NIKE: air max 90 moire

I keep seeing this "moire" pattern moire and moire.... GET IT!?

anyways, I like it and these look dope. PLUS: the color scheme matches the blog! coincidence?

scope 'em: here

the future is.... YEASAYER

YEASAYER is an experimental band based out of NY, NY.

they describe their music as "Middle Eastern-psych-snap-gospel." Ha. I would relate them pretty closely to an ANIMAL COLLECTIVE type band, with a little bit less electronic influence. Also, they toured with MGMT and MAN MAN last year.

they are pretty wild, and they definitely jam pretty hard.

Check em out in the playlist (especially AMBLING ALP) or at their website: here

enjoy!

POMPLAMOOSE pt. 2

I know I've blogged about this band before, but they are too legit.

POMPLAMOOSE is a boyfriend/girlfriend duo from California.

they've gained some recognition based on their youtube videos which show their style of "ORGANIC MUSIC." this means that the video clips you see at any given time in the videos are footage of the actual live take they used during recording. Confused? check out a video and you will understand.

I just enjoy their overall sound. PLUS they have a sick earth, wind, and fire cover (september) in the playlist!
