Fed up with boring electro-pop? Listen to the sound of the pEnelOpe[s]

They’re back on the Vitalic Label Citizen Records , with a new album “The Arrogance of Simplicity”. One of the best current mix between rock and electro. I just love it !

Luuk Vermeyden a.k.a. Jaxe is a dutch based artist, situated in Rotterdam, the Netherlands. Luuk is totally pationated and motivated in what he’s doing. Which you can see in his work and the way he improves and develops his own style. Luuk enjoys a graphic education in Rotterdam, called “Grafisch Lyceum Rotterdam”

NEW WORK.
LIVE.ORANGE., is a new work that I recently added on my gallery @ DeviantArt.

New work

My sweet girlfriend did a quick photoshoot for her dads motorbike ( zundapp ). And I thought she looks so nice on it and her smile. I had to work with it! So that’s what I did. I started to draw some childlike shapes and integrated them. You can find the result here.
Soon viewable on the new portfolio!

I used Adobe Photoshop cs and Adobe Illustrator, No tablet -> mouse !
Thanks for all the support!

John B is one of my favourite drum & bass Djs. He’s new album “Electrostep” is one of the most amazing albums he’s ever made. Electrostep is also used for he’s new fresh and unique style. iDjmagazine describes it as a “drum & bass style soaked in eigthies electro, rock, grunge and trance influences and doused in-tongue-in-cheek humour”.

In this topic I’ll post the best tracks which you could find that week on several blogs. Of course this is my opinion, but you’re defenitaly going to like it!

This week a new name popped up … for me at least ! And they’re my obsoluta favourite for this week. Cobra Dukes are their name and they are already being played by the likes of Mylo, Touche, and Punks Jump Up to name a few. Check them out at www.myspace.com/cobradukes
