You’d look better in 3-D
Callan | January 30th, 2012
Having cutting edge visuals has been an important aspect of dance culture and electronic music since the Hacienda threw its first raves, and the two have always been as intertwined as peanut-butter-and-jelly are in the the world of the American sandwich. Read More
No Shame in enjoying this
Callan | January 25th, 2012
As far as art-film is concerned right now, Steve McQueen’s (UK video artist, not American actor) Shame is the most Art and Film a movie has been simultaneously that I have seen in quite a while. Read More

Recently, mysterious personality/avant-bass musician ZOMBY mentioned in a rare interview for Self-Titled Magazine that he really likes the dark psychological vision of UK director Mike Leigh, specifically the film NAKED. Read More
Montauk and the hipster surfer
Callan | August 25th, 2011
The Hipster Surfer in its current incarnation may have emerged when the graffiti gallery artist elite decided longboarding was cool a few years back. Beginning in San Francisco with the shop Mollusk and artists such as Barry McGee (formerly Twist) and Kevin Ansel and culminating with luxury dive-resort “The Surf Lodge” in Montauk and SoHo Boutique/coffee shop “Saturdays,” the image of the Soul Surfer is pretty trendy at the moment.

Balearic 2011
Callan | August 25th, 2011
So the Balearic sound (a musical style that relates to the dreamy euro-pop music played at Amnesia on the island of Ibiza in the mid 80′s and the house music played at the club Pacha, Cafe del Mar etc in the late 80s) keeps going this summer, proving it is not some indie trend revival. Read More

New age pop replacing Goth Revival
Callan | July 27th, 2011
Not sure if its cuz of Gang Gang Dance or what but everyone seems to be using Cirque Du Soleil synths and new-agey bell tones. Somehow many of the parties going right now in NY seem to be referencing a sort of 80′s new-age mysticism as well- think words like “gaze” and “vision.” Read More
“Hipster Hamptons”
Callan | July 22nd, 2011
This 4th of July, the Rockaways was where everyone was partying…. or at least everyone who wasn’t invited somewhere involving richer people. It has been dubbed the “hipster hamptons” by someone snarky, but I for one am happier to spend my day near surfers and trendy artists than I am investment bankers and their pregnant wives. Read More
