…well sorta, but not really. It seems that Phoenix has a bit of a sense of humor as they load up a background of the Eiffel Tower in Paris from, what I’m guessing, is a Mac and perform their single “1901″ acoustically. Their album Wolfgang Amadeus Phoenix is available in stores now, and I have [...]
Doucin Pierre aka Soemone hollered at us yesterday, albeit in French (I was able to loosely translate), to let us know that he’s updated his 2009 portfolio. Dunno who this cat is? He’s a Parisian freelance graphic designer with a long history of graffiti as his background. You may not 100% recognize his name, you [...]
French electro group Make The Girl Dance has just released their video for their first single “Baby, Baby, Baby”. Think Matt & Kim, nudity in the streets, instead replace New York City as the back drop with Paris. Watching peoples reactions to the three girls swapping out is pretty funny.

As you’ve all heard by now, Amy Winehouse is officially out for Coachella, no big deal honestly in my opinion. But who has been added is even more amazing, Etienne de Crecy. You may find yourself asking, who?, not to fret, there are a lot of people who aren’t aware of Etienne de Crecy, but [...]
The Kimono got a facelift at the Paris Women’s Ready-to-Wear Fall 2009. Hiroko Koshino’s attraction to traditional Japanese culture can readily be seen in the designs of her Fall 2009 line. She nips, tucks, crops, and completely modernizes the kimono for everyday use when it has typically been considered formal wear for ceremonial occasions. Houndstooth Kimono? [...]
Here’s a new up and comer and to be quite frank I’m not sure why I even listened to Alexandra Hopes songs, but I did and I’m glad I did. Her style is defined as “alternative, rock, minimalist gothic folk”, but all I know is her voice is wonderfully beautiful. I had a chance to [...]
Thanks to the internets, I discovered Friendly Fires through an Aeroplane remix of “Paris”. Being lazy or selfish or both, I opted out of sharing the boys of Friendly Fires covering Lykke Li’s “I’m Good, I’m Gone on Killahbeez. But this video directed by Clemens Habicht is shear genius! The visuals are amazing for only [...]
Here’s a dope 2009 calendar that was shot by Terry Richardson for Vogue Paris. The style of the photos are definitely a bit different then what fans of Richardson, myself included, are use to, but none the less this calendar still looks hot. This calendar will officially be available via the December / January issue [...]
I was initially introduced to Surface to Air via a friend in Montreal that brought me down to Reborn some time ago. Since then I’ve made a point to stop at Odin when I make it out to NYC, IE here in Vancouver and Nomad in Toronto to get my fix in terms of [...]
