Time for some good old David versus Goliath tactics, which might just work. For a split second, but still, it might. How to close every McDonald’s in Manhattan: The press conference part in the video made me a bit sceptic though, all I wanted was for the camera to turn around and show us if [...]
Before doing the moneygami, you better count your cash. Turns out counting cash is a cultural habit too, watch how people around the globe count their dough differently, some nices stylish ways if you ask me:
That’s right. Got a job now. Which is nice, so let me go grab a beer and chase some honeys, whilst I await your comments on that, goddamnit! … As for the on-point aspect of life, you’ll soon be blessed with the new podcast by the infamous OndaSonoraSoundSystem, and the next on-point tv episode will [...]
I love me a proper article on the evolution of the so-called new media and how the old is supposedly dealing with it. I’m happy to read how local media concern Roularta is about to fuse their different editorial departments (print - online – tv) into some sort of a newsroom. From the newsroom, items will first [...]
It sure isn’t easy tracking these long features down on the net – if you’d have any links, get in touch – but here we are again, with a touching documentary for you and yours: Grizzly Man. Not much to say about it, Timothy Threadwell lived with the grizzly bears, and out of his video [...]
Soul:ID has silently been building a bit of a buzz over their debut album ‘Sex, Love and Philosophy’. Out on ABB Soul in the States and on Avex in Japan. Next Saturday you can check them out live on stage at De Kriekelaar in Schaarbeek, together with Mongoose and the excquisite Onda Sonora Soundsystem. This [...]
Here I go again with this Ghost Dog fascination of mine, but seriously though, the man moved to Amsterdam. Don’t want to blow his cover, but here’s his secret hideout:
I’ll be damned if that wasn’t a nice weekender spent in Amsterdam! Crossed the city on foot, by bike and by tram. Under the sun and under the moon. Quite exhausting yet revitalising all at the same time, gotta love that, right? Just before I had left, the soon-to-be-infamous on-point tv bootleg dvd was finished. [...]
I’ve been mostly stressing about jobhunting. Can’t really write too much upon the topic, since my gut feeling says possible future colleagues are reading along – which is nice… In any case, it’s a stressful thing, which might get to me from time to time, so I’m taking a little time out, making a little [...]
Being a fan of La Melodia I couldn’t let this pass by, new clip of Worldwide Connect, featuring Roc C. (INT on the beat!) If the name rings a bell but you’re still wondering why, re-check the ‘Pick You Up At Midi’ podcast.
Here’s nice idea to tackle the problem of chewing gum on the streets: Hubba Bubba put up fun, interactive “paint by numbers”-style posters that use different flavours of chewing gum as the colour palette. I wonder if those little ‘paint by numbers’ canvases are still made.. Also wondering if still will actually work, my guess [...]
Just a while ago I decided to join the Facebook madness, made vic and a couple of friends do the same thing – sorry fellas – and finally even decided to make an own on-point group.
Following last weeks list of Louis Theroux videos, here’s another full length view: Louis’ Lock-In. “When Louis Theroux went to San Quentin prison he found a bizarre self-contained society where “straight” men fall in love, gangs are divided along strict racial lines and an inmate can be assaulted for the most minor mistake.” Without further [...]
One of the albums I’m highly anticipating for the very near future is Christian Prommer‘s Drumlessons. The concept is simple, jazzcovers of classic electronic music. Killer, straight-up (check the live version of ‘Around The World’ on his space). Live in De Kreun, Kortrijk on May 16th and in Het Depot, Leuven on the 17th. Here [...]
It’s been a minute, but we’re back! Sorry for the off-pointness lately, but technology stole my week. Headquarters’ main computer was coping with a mean computer crash, a combat with the dark side we’ve seem to have conquered. No ‘Long Play‘ today though, sorry for that. Anyway, from what I can see, it’s Spring again! [...]
Videoclip of Billy Palmier’s “I Got No Money”, of his debut album “Urban Palmtree Flavours”, out on Citywurl Records. (Be on the lookout for the 2008 releases on Citywurl, heard some promising demotracks, quite harder than this sound actually – check the MadeInJapan demo in the ‘Pick You Up At Midi‘ podcast.)
Never been the biggest fan of Gainsbourg, but that being said, “L’histoire de Melody Nelson” is on my list of nicest albums ever. Don’t ask me what my criteria for that would be. It’s the overall vibe. It’s all about the sweet Jane Birkin, really. Now, making a concept album is one thing. But making [...]
Following the post on Generation Soft Spots, from the same source, here’s an overview of the leading mentality trends. I love reading this type of observations. As J-C Vandamme would say: ‘It makes you very aware.‘ 1. The Struggle Gets Harder The fight for Quality Gets Harder too. Worldwide, the playing field for competition has [...]
This just made me laugh. That is all.
I’ve always been a fan of Louis Theroux. Weird Weekends was a BBC2 show (1998-2000) about weird people and weird movements in America: UFO hunters, survivalists, white supremacists, habitual Vegas gamblers, porn actors, swingers, and so on. Just when I though I’d seen all of his work it turns out I’ve missed out on more [...]
Ok it’s cheesy and all, but I figured it was time for a bit of laughter. Plus I really dig the idea. It must be liberating to put on your squash outfit, go into town and just squash all you want. Leaving people genuinely amazed, here’s Street Squash: (via) buy acompliacompare viagra cialisviagra prescriptionorder vpxlbuy [...]
