THINGS I FIND ON THE WEB
“Teen decides to make noticed from the rest of the crowd by becoming a Punk Rocker.”
It all starts when some punk rock kids leave their darn punk rock magazine behind and gives the good kid “ideas.” It’s obviously recorded from a VHS, so there is some static buzzing. If you can tolerate that, watch whole thing on vimeo or below.

In 1939 23 yr old designer, Alex Steinweiss, convinced (as the first Art Director) Columbia Records to allow him to design the first real album cover for “Smash Song Hits” by Rodgers & Hart.
By doing so, Steinweiss basically came up with the idea of creating album & cover art. Up until then, the albums were generically designed. Someone at Undependent picked up the album off eBay for under $30.
Before the LP (Long Playing) record, 78 records were usually 10 inch platters that held around 3 minutes of music! In other words, this Rodgers and Hart collection of Smash Song Hits includes 4 separate platters! More bulk than a modern CD box set!

To celebrate the grand opening ofOpening Ceremony’s new Ace Shop, Gia Coppola (grandaughter to Francis, niece of Sophia, cousin to Jason Schwartzman) & Tracy Antonopoulos were asked to put
together a short film.
The film stars Kirsten Dunst and Jason Schwartzman, with music by Jason’s band, Coconut Records.
Kirsten and Jason, who are decked out in recent arrivals from O.C.’s S/S2010 collection, share a sweet and playful chemistry, very artfully captured by Gia and Tracy on this nostalgia-inducing, vintage-feeling montage. “We were influenced by 60s New Wave films and my uncle’s house,” said Gia. Jason lends both acting and musical talents for the short film, which features the song “Is Sound OK?” from the Davy, the most recent release from his musical project Coconut Records. Expect more from these two talented directors in the next year: Gia recently graduated from Bard College, while Tracy is finishing up at NYU’s Gallatin School. (via)

Je deteste Serge Gainsbourg (I hate Serge Gainsbourg) is a compilation of mashups.
The free album mixes Gainsbourg with the likes of Notorious B.I.G, Sugarhill Gang, Eminem, Ja Rule, The Gossip, Kelis and more. (Although I would skip the first track with Offspring, its a bit annoying for my taste.)
Download the album here.
