From one of the more underrated indie pop albums of recent memory, this is the New Pornographers lead man’s 2004 solo album, The Slow Wonder, and it sounds very Canadian.

Thursday Never Knows: “She Came In Through The Bathroom Window”
February 10th, 2012
We don’t normally make Paul our go to, but we are glad that he decided that they should close-out their final recording session, Abbey Road, with a medley. And this is his crowning bit of pop gem on Side B of that epic album.

Mr. David Choe and Sean Parker discuss art at Facebook, 2005
February 6th, 2012
Funny thing is, Harry Kim caught the most perfect moment that he could ever catch in this conversation between David Choe and Sean Parker at Facebook, circa 2005, before word of the Choe, Facebook IPO news broke. A nice historical perspective, and a seemingly normal, mundane discussion becomes something worthy of intrigue.

First Friday: Yuck “Georgia”
February 3rd, 2012
Can you tell we like Yuck yet? This is sort of cheating, because we just really like the song “Georgia,” and this was the first track on their Georgia single, but oh well, its our website and we make the rules. Feel. Good. Music.

Thursday Never Knows: “I Want to Tell You”
February 2nd, 2012
One of the most underrated songs in the Beatles catalog (which is a dumb thing to even write) is the George Harrison 1966 gem, “I Want to Tell You.” Revolver is full of special moments, jumping from feeling to feeling, and Harrison seems to more in-tune with Lennon on this album, taking pop to new levels.

RIP, Don Cornelius
February 2nd, 2012
To the creator of “Soul Train,” you have given us a reason to dance and a reason to laugh. And an amazing amount of footage to remember you and the 1970s by.

Geometric Porn
February 1st, 2012
Geometric Porn from Luciano Foglia on Vimeo.
Not to sound too obvious, but the colors on this thing are incredible, Say artist Luciano Fogllia, who created this, “Something abstract existing in thought or as an idea but not having a physical or concrete existence. Visual geometry containing the non-explicit description of sexual organs or activity. Arising in the mind it intends to stimulate erotic rather than aesthetic or emotional feelings.” (via)
