Banksy hits up New Orleans


Banksy recently stenciled New Orleans half to death, throwing up a number of new pieces around the city almost overnight.
Go to the Wooster Collective to see the rest of the photos.

Kate Moss - Interview Magazine Pictures


Good Lord!
I'm not in the habit of posting pictures of models (although as a contemporary culture blog I could probably get away with squeezing the odd pair of boobies in amongst the mp3's, trailers and trainers) but I had to point you in the direction of this little lot.
The photo with just the gloves... I'm speechless.

Madlib - Rebirth Cycle mp3 (from Beat Konducta Vol 5)


A track from the latest installment of Madlib's excellent instrumental project 'Beat Konducta'. This is from Volume 5 which is available as a download only over at Stones Throws webstore now. I think Vol 5 & 6 will be released at a later date on Vinyl and CD.
There is a lot of Dilla references and dedications on Volume 5, and the standard is high, as usual.

I'm loving this.

Cass - Trailer

Trailer for the biopic of the life of Cass Pennant, the head of West Ham's ICF hooligan crew.

Cass was famous for being a solitary black face in the typically white, right-wing sympathising world of football firms.

TR2N - Pirated Trailer (Video)

I make no apologies for the quality... It gets a lot better as the action kicks in.
This is a pirated trailer of Tron 2, due to be released in 2010 by Disney. The first is a classic, and just to see the same style of effects in use excites me more than it should.
