Amanda Mair

So a couple of weeks ago Labrador Records , the Swedish power house record label of such bands like The Radio Dept.., Club 8, The Mary Onettes and Sambassadeur, signed a 16 year old sensation named Amanda Mair. 16 years old, what was I doing when I was 16? Probably playing legos, yes still at 16. Anyways the single “House” will be released June 8th. She’s definitely in good hands with Labrador and hopefully she can open up for The Mary Onettes, since they had to cancel their concert due to the volcano I can’t pronounce.

Have a listen to something unique

Marsheaux

Marsheaux

I recently stumbled upon a synthpop band named Marsheaux that is highly addicting to listen to. They have all the traits of a good synthpop band, catchy beats, poppy delicious synth hooks, female vocals, and are from Greece, whaaaaaat? Yeah much to my surprise this duo is from Thessaloniki, Greece. Not like it matters, but I wasn’t thinking Greece as the first place on my list of cool synthpop bands. I guess you do learn something new everyday.

Some videos for your enjoyment.

Christopher Thomas – “Bringing Sexy Back”

After looking at Christopher Thomas’s work, I believe this is the reason why I got into photography . It’s fine art photography that I appreciate and one that I want to strive to be like. Christopher is a well known commercial photographer, but went back to the basics with a large format camera and  black and white film with his series New York Sleeps.  It’s a great series that you can check out more on his website.

Here’s also a video from Crane.tv about his work.
