New Smoosh Song

Man, these girls can play... and write.  Check out the new song "We are our own lies" from girl-band wonder Smoosh, off their forthcoming album.  It's a considerably more dramatic piece than anything they've tried before. Hey, they're all grown up!

Huge Loss for the Pop World Today

Fashion designer Alexander McQueen has been found dead at his London home.  No details on a potential cause of death.  He was 40 years old.


McQueen had worked with some of the most innovative, visually engaged pop artists of the last four decades, including Bjork, David Bowie, and more recently Lady Gaga.  His interest in technology, performance, narrative, and design garnered wide-spread acclaim across industries.



McQueen designed the iconic album cover for Bjork's Homogenic (1997)


In an era when the visual component of pop music -- which, despite purist moaning, has been with us since the birth of rock n' roll -- is decreasing in relevance and power, McQueen's death spells out a whole other layer of meaning for those of us who didn't even know him and is all the more sad.

Snow in New York


Going sledding in Prospect Park with a friend of mine (completely her idea, can't take any credit for it)!

What's your favorite indoor or outdoor activity when the snow's falling?

New EP coming soon

Something you didn't know about me: I am one half of a psych-electro project called "Fasc!nation Isle," we will be introducing ourselves to the world via EP in the coming months...

That's all for now :)
