Cocoons

Yet another video treat from the team behind Ravishing Mad. I fucking loooove the kinds of creative drive that propel little geniuses like Anna Ö to turn a haircutting session with a friend into an eerily puzzling short film about transformation and attraction. André de Loisted shot it, Anna Ö edited and cut hair and Anna-Carin gained a brand new hair-do - a very stylish one, I may add. Oh yeah, and I suggested the music. It's a track from INvbaei's first album length release and free for download at iLLpHABETik.com - go get it, you will love it!

Ravishing Mad SS11

I could've and maybe should've blabbered more about Anna Österlunds clothing label Ravishing Mad before, but I wanted to wait until these pics were out. First of all, it is the first collection where I have had the honor of co-designing a piece and second, the photos that go with this collection is by far the ones that so far have turned out the best. MAD PROPS to Caleb Eike Smith for handling everything behind the camera and being nothing short of puppet master for me and Anna Ö in front of it.
All pictures were shot around Stockholm - we drove around from locatiuon to location for around 17 hours, went back to the flat and slept for 4, and did the indoor shots at the art space Detroit the next day. Oh yeah, the jewellery we are wearing in some of the pics are some insanely beautiful pieces designed by Hanna Hedman - CHECK HER OUT, her work is out of this world.

Black Cheese Mixxtape Vol. 1

Pato is the king of Copenhagen. Although Copenhagen is a very small kingdom, plenty of talent for cool is to be found and, thus, kingship is no small feat.
Pato has an army of ghosts - called Specktors. They're scary.
It sounds like this when they play:

Billy Bell Solo - Mad Hatter

Venetian Snares is Venetian Snares. This dance routine is way too short. Together, though, it is something cooler than glaciers.

Transmission Low

Once upon a time (like 2 years ago) I myself was playing in a band called UNO SOUL. That was pretty fuzzed in a neat sense until the guys decided to throw me out of the band because of "interpersonal differences" and "a roaring smack addiction".
Anyways WHEN we did play together we often found ourselves trapped in the rehearsal space complex in the middle of the night, no beer left, no scratch, no grass, no nothing, all consumed. The ONLY place we might be lucky to leech some something was at Transmission Lows place downstairs. Its not even like we knew the guys that good or liked each others bands very much, it was just good to know where to go to get demented in a tight spot.
I think they have become, like, superstars now.

I met this girl once, and once only. I have never seen her since.
But she is it. Just take a listen and look at her.

Caleb is a wicked talented photographer I recently met through Anna Ö. We did a marathon shoot, spending 17 hours or so cruising Stockholm for coolspots. Some of the pics will be used for the Ravishing Mad SS 11 collection catalogue and some, I guesshopefear, will be for Caleb to use as he sees fit.
The Ravishing Mad pics will most def be posted here, too, when ready.
Anyways, I can only recommend keeping an eye on Mr. Smith - he's a star. He is exhibiting with Isak Boardman at Galleri Kocks (lovely name, btw) in Stockholm from tomorrow until July 20.

Grunge music never died, it just took a long sleep

I grew up with Sonic Youth, L7 and Nirvana and thus cannot possibly avoid loving this band Little Yells Alot.
