Diego Bernal – “Besides…”

Diego Bernal - Besides

“Besides…” is the follow up instrumental album from San Antonio based producer Diego Bernal. It’s available now as a free download and as 7″ vinyl from Exponential Records. I bumped the hell out of his last album, “Four Courners” and this one sounds just a great. Download or purchase the vinyl now.

Live Light Design for Phoenix by Joakim Faxvaag

Truly amazing live light design by Joakim Faxvaag, who has been on tour with the band Phoenix for the past year. Check out his site for some photos as well. The DC Phoenix show is sold out but I might have to get one of my girlfriends to spring for  some tickets on Craigslist after seeing this…

Photoshop – Content Aware Fill Sneak Peek

This would be an awesome way to boost productivity. Not sure if it will show up on CS5, which is being released on April 12. The way they use it for the panoramas is quite amazing. Wow!

Nice track from Smalltown Romeo and Shad K. Video by Matt Luckhurst, who is apparently a grad student at the School of Visual Arts. Very, very dope handmade style…I’d holler at that dude if I wanted a music video done.

Erykah Badu – Window Seat Video

Well, everyone is talking about the new Erykah Badu video anyway, so I might as well post it. She acknowledges that her video was inspired by Matt and Kim’s naked romp through NYC and apparently the video was shot on St. Patrick’s day in Dallas and done in one cut. In case you still don’t know, the video is probably NSFW by the way.

I think most of the discussion has been more about the nudity and less about this whole “group think” theme…which is kind of ridiculous, but the video is very interesting regardless. What do yall think?

A Dope Classixx Mix

Classixx Mix

Yo, Classixx have got to be my favorite djs right now. I discovered them myself after the homie Chop Steak included their remix to Mayer Hawthorne’s “Green Eyed Love” on a recent mix and I’ve been addicted to their sound ever since. I had the pleasure of seeing them spin at Malverde at SXSW, they did not disappoint! Searched around for a bit, looking for some mixtapes and found this one online from a while back. I think this mix is from 2008, which is right around the time things really started ramping up for them. Anyway, pretty dope overall, check it out!
