It could totally happen: You’re going to be trapped on a deserted island and you can only bring one thing. If that’s how this desert-island thing works, then you should probably bring the one thing that is all the things in one. Zubin has got its finger on the pulse of the survivalist scene, so if […]
Originally released in 1983, and true to the crazed and hallucinogenic Thompson/Steadman style, The Curse of Lono returns, a sort of fear and loathing in Hawaii that Taschen acquired and released a decade ago — and it immediately sold out. Featuring the unhinged ramblings of Hunter S and truly psychedelic art of Ralph Steadman, Taschen’s hardcover The […]
A return to form of sorts for MGMT. Great song, great video. Benjamin Goldwasser and Andrew VanWyngarden are keeping it experimental on their self-titled 3rd album, and they certainly seem content on keeping their mega-hit Kids days in the rearview.

Shot by erstwhile party photographer Mark “The Cobrasnake” Hunter, the campaign keeps it […]
Photographer Barbara Nitke began her career working in pornography in the early 80s — consider Boogie Nights, only without prosthetic genitalia and cherry red Corvettes. Nitke at the time was hired as a set photographer and saw the entire industry through a lens and perspective that very few were privy to. Besides shooting many of […]
Back in October Milano electro-nauts Crookers streamed their Dr. Gonzo album for all to hear before they released it, and now they’re doing that again with their latest EP/maxi-single, “Hummus”, and its various remixes. Remixers include Botnek, Donovan, Hybrid Theory and Astronomar, but personally we dig the Slow Waves Mix the most. Pick up the […]
