From 1971. Pat LaBarbera on tenor, and Jeff Stout on trumpet. The mute Jeff was using started to fall out of his trumpet and Lin Biviano pulled it out. A great arrangement

Project Squadt

cool toy

This cool concept for a new series of vinyl toys comes from the minds of FERG, or is it from Jamungo. Either way, if you want to get to know these little guys a bit more, go to the project Squadt site, or to that cool blog you may or may not know about: Toys are Evil.

Purple room
by Nikos Vasilakis

I love deviantart, and I think I’ve said that over and over. You get to find some really interesting and talented artists over there. One exact example of what I’m talking about is the gallery of nikosalpha, a greek photographer with a very interesting portfolio. Go check out his gallery, you won’t be disappointed, as you’ll find quite a few interesting fashion photos over there, among others, you’ll find a lot of photos of beautiful women.

Bonus: a gorgeous girl in a red dress

Will Smith is…

He’s not a legend. Talking about that, I never got to see “I am Legend“. It looked like a very cool movie, though what turned me off was the fact that everybody said the ending was awful. And, talking about movies I haven’t seen, is Step Up 2 The Streets any good?

Going back to the topic, Will Smith: it looks like Hancock is going to be a cool movie.

“There are Heroes, There are Superheroes and then there’s…”
Hancock

Yes, ladies and gentlemen, another youtube video, but this one is nice. I happen to like it. It’s a cool cover of one of Nirvana’s hit performed by french singer Emilie Simon.

Figments

Figments

Figments are one of a kind hand made characters. Each character is made from fabrics that attracted me in the color, weave, and design. Their personalities take shape as each character is sewn and put together. Their clothes give them their attitude, which allows them to express their moods and emotions to us differently.

bonus: imaginary foundation t-shirts

Creepy art

Extra creepy
extra creepy, by Andrzej Dragan

According to his website, Andrzej Dragan has a PhD in quantum physics, he’s also a musician, and a photographer. His artwork is amazingly creepy, and therefore very cool, so, to check out his site

bonus: modern fairy tales

I haven’t posted any music in a while, so what better to come back with one of my favorite musicians ever. Ladies and gentlemen: Yann Tiersen
