HOPIUM :: Cut and Run For Your Life, Dreamers

Following the love trail from Dustin Tebbutt lead me to the dark and twisted otherside of love in Hopium. Y'know that feeling that everything is beautiful and smooth, but the sinking sensation that you're just really high on endorphins and other chemicals that just won't last... The Melbourne-based band/production trio is making me a little excited to return to the gretty grey of that city, but I know the citysads will be there to greet me.. From "Dreamers": You said this would be your year / But you fucked around, now December’s here...

URBAN ENVIRONMENT REMIX :: PowerHouse Geelong

It's all happening - it's all changing and getting full of art and life and awe and wonder.. and drones.

This was what the abandoned power station in my Australian hometown was like when I left eight months ago (recognize the soundtrack of my haunting)

(ghost loft - seconds)

And now it's got a name, The PowerHouse Geelong and it is the state's latest graff and street art mecca. With massive 5-storey pieces by RONE and by MAYO on the exterior, and a plethora of works by over 50 big names inside including UNWELL BUNNY, ADNATE, OHNOES, SKUBZ, POISE, DUKE, ITCH, BLACKSKYBLUE and so many more...


music - KEYS N KRATES :: Understand Why

music - DJ YODA :: Big Trouble in Little China, U No Likey That

DUSTIN TEBBUTT :: Where I Find You

I like the sexy songs, it's true. But underneath it all, I'm a hopeless romantic.


This song caught my heart awhile ago and I just found it in my shazam tags, and so.. Shazam! Shaquille O'Neal just brought it back to life for me to share it with you. You're welcome. I love you too. (that's how that movie went, right?)

Check out his soundcloud for a serious soundtrack for realizing romance in winter; snow on eyelashes, oatmeal and tea, watching the ice melt, throwing snowballs, cold air laughter, falling in snowdrifts...

KILLDOZER and YANIS MARSHALL :: Nasty Boys in all the ways

The dance gods smiled upon me once again and graced me this video a few days ago

Yanis Marshall is simply killing it in commercial/vogue choreography, with insane style and strut, riding high upon his 6" heels, homopride and exquisite technique.




And then...


Killdozer's cover of Janet Jackson's "Nasty Boys" is the perfectly suited reaction that evaded me, but thankfully a more complicatedly poetic internetter shared it.



Oh Lord almighty, what WOULD Yanis do with this track... and those boys...?!!!
