KCDC will be hosting Van’s Get Out and Do Something party this Sunday. Ray Barbee and the Mattson 2 will be performing followed by an undoubtedly irie set by Cardiel. Should make for an enjoyable day. They’ll also be giving a bunch of shit away seen in the flyer above. Just get out and go!

Rattler’s a band out of D.C. that condones everything that has to do with Sex, Drugs and Mock and Roll. This Saturday they’re taking all the epicness they’ve been practicing and compiling it into a giant jagerbomb of a shit show. Make sure to swing thru and check it out.

Anastassia Elias uses toilet paper rolls for some spare time creativeness.

Craft Spells is a great little duo out of Stockton, California which is a neat little town a little west of S.F. Their “Party Talk” 7” is due out this month on Captured Tracks. Until then, enjoy this single from the album, it’s pretty good.

Once Long realized that a day job and sucking Interstate 95’s dick wasn’t a good idea, the parties started getting good.
This Friday Night, in the Art District, tell your friends to get with my friends.


In collaboration with Keds & Opening Ceremony, Richard Saja has created a new limited shoe specially for Fashions Night Out. The Camp Oxford as it’s called takes a mix of new and old perfect for the historically sound fashion fiend.
“Richard has been remixing and recontextualizing quintessentially French toile prints since 2001 when he first designed a set of toile-printed pillows embellished with clever, playful twists on monochromatic pastoral scenes. Anyone familiar with “Toile de Jouy” — a print that originated in 1700s France — would most likely associate it with the sweet, girly Marie Antoinette-style decor of grandma’s dining room, but Richard’s reinterpretations subvert the expected daintiness by inserting figures reminiscent of the artist’s childhood doodles: superheroes, monsters, clowns, and mutants.”

An amazing video from Fever Ray, thanks Stephanie.

I’ve just discovered the musically inclined David Byrne keeps an online journal filled with mildly frenetic and properly explained rants about what goes through his head. Random. Informative. Humorous. He covers things from the fall of print/newspapers to analogies like the interet/bandwidth and showers/faucets. He also releases a themed radio playlist every month, which is unpretentious and inspiring. Dive in HERE.
