fright fiesta

halloween mixes are always a challenge, unless you're me of course. my advice is that you just delete thriller and monster mash from your computer completely. the current trend seems to be creepy ambience so finding songs that fit the bill wasn't hard at all. it's not all scary though. this mix is influenced by candy highs, ultra-themed alcoholic bebidas and obscure costume references.



P.s. you should probably seriously rethink your where the wild things are costume.

a walk in el parque

Please enjoy this trip to the woods with Kasper bjørke. It reminds me of a recent 'trip' I had (pictured above). I'm liking this disco-electronic-psychedelic-nature vibe. Maybe these songs give off the same vibe. Maybe.


¡hace colors!

The bleak, desolate winter is creeping up way faster than I would have ever wanted, but instead of seeing a grayscale I see vibrant colores y shapes. Run with it, gente. Pictured above is jewelry by brokenfab. Below are some videos from alexandliane, a duo of directors from the UK based in Berlin.




Also, here's a video from uffie (that's lit-trally 2 years late) for her song 'pop the glock.' Get inspired:


So, instead of reaching for your aburrido navy peacoat to keep you warm grab a ridiculous sweater (looking at you spliff) and heat up by having a dance party.

who wore it better

Hopefully by now you realize that Toro y moi is awesome. Here's more proof: a cover of Beach house's 'master of none.' Be sure to check him out when he rolls through your town with Islands. He'll be at the 40 Watt in Athens on November 20th. Maybe he'll add an ATL show?

rhymes with naranja

I feel like I've seen mucho good shows lately. Let me think, there was Washed Out (pictured arriba) at the awkward 'kia soul' event. He was obviously inexperienced, but me and the 5 other people there to see him liked it. Finally got to see Wavves, and with no drama from any surly black lips. Then there was Beach house/Grizzly bear. Obviously that was incrediblé. Neon indian blew my mind the other night as well. Living rooms opened, and now I really like them.

Can't wait for these shows:
Fuck buttons - November 6th at 529
The xx - November 17th at 529

All my sueños are coming true! Here's a wittle (unrelated) mix:
