Strawstruck: Just One of The New Real Musics
TJ Kong and the Atomic Bomb, time-traveling heralds of a bygone era, here to warn us of the same old passing away.
An ‘oldy’, something blue, but new to me.
Straw’s berries: The new and the edited.
So, after effects. Adobe. Mastery of simple things = professional appearances, apparently. Your apprehension of quality is presented to you by Coke. Voila:
The Young and The Talented.
Plat here,
With the rise of the interwbez came a revolution in creativity. Anyone anywhere can produce and publish their work for the world to see. Independent artists have a free venue to display their work. This is changing the game in film making.
Jesse Burrell is making serious moves. After submitting this to a Biscuit video contest, they quickly scooped him up for other projects. Check out more of his stuff with NoCoastTV
While on the topic of up and coming filmmakers, I can’t help but give a shout out to my boy Gabe Harden. I am in love with everything about this short edit starring Sophie Reppert, shot by Mathea Millman and edited by Gabe. Feel free to CHECK OUT MORE.
K-Swag
Miss Plat here, back on my bloggin’ grind.
For the past two weeks, I have been lucky enough to twist my perspective an enjoy a new culture. So far, Korea has shown me the mindmending power of a soju (rice wine) hangover, the benefits of never having to leave a bar to smoke dirt cheap cigarettes, and most importantly the necessity of kimchee at every meal.
But these are mere accessories in the juicey culture I have dunked my head in.
B-BOYz
Damn, these boys can dance. I had the opportunity to attend R16, an urban art festival and break dancing competition. From the moment I sat in my overly comfortable concert seat, these jacked b-boys had my full attention and my heart. Crews from Khazistan, France, Taiwan, Russia, Japan, China, USA, and Korea came out to share the love and respect of b-boying and the hiphop culture around it. Thanks Vimeo for da vid!
ARTz
The perfect comlpiment to the yummy dancer boys was the side dish of delicious graffiti murals. Street artists from around Seoul gathered to spray their love of art over the hiphop influenced scene. Check out local Seoul artist Xeva’s fresh style in his work “Canvas”.

Thanks to google images for lettin’ me steal this pic!
JAMz
The cherry on top of my exciting day and evening was the surprise performance from the Korean hiphop star Drunken Tiger. I did not expect much from the less than sober feline but he yet again showed me a taste of K-Swag. Take a lil’ listen for yourself.
Thanks YouTube. You always come through for us blondies.
Bounce Little Kitty….
CALLING ALL CAT LOVERS. Plat here bringing a much needed dose of feline frenzy. For all my cat ladies and dudes, take note.
First off, OH MAN.
Let’s Make Nasty by Larry Tee (remixed by AfroJack) has been all up in the business of my brain as of late. After spending the weekend with a fellow blogger, I can’t keep away from this kitty-cat jam. Go ahead. Bounce around. I know you wanna.
Secondly, Wow! That’s one big kitty.
Tigers of Wrath by Walton Ford
Walton (The Man) Ford uses water colors to create these Audubon-esque behemoths. Learn more about his Tigers of Wrath here.
Lastly, I give you Dancing with Cats.
Dancing with Cats
I kid you not kiddies, this artform most certainly exists. In fact, I have a legitimate website to prove it. Try me.
Oh, and you’re gonna wanna check out this “behind the scenes” footage. Haahahahahahah.
