My vinyl purches, new and used from NY. It’s a good oppourtunity for me to share some of my more eclectic tastes without worrying about the material being dated. I can’t be bothered to make any encodes for this stuff but maybe in the future we’ll have little mixes for our readers if there is enough interest.

I’ve got something really beautiful for you guys. Tom Geraedts, a motion designer from the Netherlands has made an incredible visualization of the perception of blind people. It’s amazing. The way he combines music, sound and his visuals.

Crystal Waters ‘s Gypsy Woman goes Fidget! That’s right. We have a new crunky remix for the fidget lovers out there. The young Belgian duo, Beatbouncers, had the idea to mix their heavy wubblin bass with the early 90′s. Here’s the result. Love it or hate it!

It’s been a quiet summer from Samuel but that’s because it is about to be a busy fall.  After a short trip to Cape Cod with Ellie Goulding‘s, Starry Eyed, on repeat Samuel and The Knocks returned to the studio and cooked up a reworking of Goulding’s track.  Samuel will be spending the month of September finishing up his yet to be titled debut album on Startime/Columbia Records with The Knocks. who will also be working with Ellie on more music.

Just love this track! 100% daydream material!

Yesterday I visited the memorial for Dash Snow at the Deitch projects gallery in nyc. Known by friends as the ‘Snowman’ and ‘Sace’ in the graffiti underworld, Dash became the sort of poster boy for a care free bohemian-esque lifestyle.
I won’t go into the details of the cause of death here, that’s not why i’m writting this. There is an article in the New York Times that gives more insight than I could about that.

I was first introduced to his work some summers ago. I remember thinking about the ‘gonzo-journalism’ concept Hunter Thompson fashioned and how it applies to Dash’s photo’s.

In the gallery on display along with his polaroids were works done in commemoration, letters, and other gifts from family and friends. There was also a separate viewing room with two small TV displays. The first was a time lapse of what looked like dash and some other unrecognizable naked bodies playing in shredded photocopied cash. The other was a short clip from an interview. He was asked about his personal beliefs to which he replied: “[laughs] well, i’ll tell you what i don’t believe in…”‘
Dashielle’s work in my mind is the most relevant and important testament to our overly stimulated society.

These are some of his polaroids that were featured in Vice magazine.
The rest of the polaroids featured in tiny vices can be found here.

This month not Tony but I’ve selected 10 tracks for the August chart. It’ll be slightly different from Tony’s, but I hope you still enjoy it. This is a selection of my 10 most favourite tracks I could find in the blogosphere and my mailbox the past few days. They’re mostly from my mailbox though. Anyway I hope Tony will be back with his incredible tunes next month.

Keep in mind they’re presented in no particular order. Enjoy!
