Uniforms For The Dedicated

I've never had vertigo that I can recall.  But feeling like this hangover may just be the onset....  Spin(s)-Spin(s)-Sugar.  Anyhoo, seeing as I totally flaked out on a BBQ I was supposed to attend and leaving the house is looking unlikely I'll upload some new moonbooties.

I think I'm well past due for a trip to Scandinavia.  The amazing music, fashion, and general style that comes out of that little part of the Globe has been pretty inspirational for as long as I can remember.  Add this to the long list of cool shit;  An arts and media co-op called Uniforms For The Dedicated comin atcha straight outta Stockholm. "Uniforms for the Dedicated was founded in 2007 as a collective of artists, musicians, film makers and designers – a playground of creative talent that today provides influence and inspiration to our clothing line as well as stand alone projects under the Uniforms for the Dedicated creative umbrella." So basically get all the hip, talented, like-minded folks together and make awesome stuff. Clothing, furniture, music, salad.  Ya why not salad?  I think its time to get me a little collective going. I know some pretty damn awesome people, too ya know!  But for reals check out their website I linked to up there, its pretty cool.  The only complaint I have is that the sound quality of the actual recording seems a bit low... which doesn't really add up.  But there you go. its a nice song anyway :)

Remember Nina Kraviz? The Russian party-bomb that isn't a part of pussy riot but rather a party making machine? I do. She's been on the blog before and here she is again with a pretty trippy/dark tune, seems to kind of be her specialty.

Goodbye MOvember

So here in Canada, and in a few other Countries as well, there is a program called MOvember.  It runs for the month of November and encourages men to grow a moustache, starting clean shaven on the 1st of November, for the whole month in an effort to raise money and awareness for prostate cancer. Its a pretty bad ass cancer that in Canada alone will affect 25,000 men this year. Seriously nasty stuff.  This was my 2nd year being involved and my team was able to, between 4 of us, raise nearly $3,000 simply by making ourselves look ridiculous with a moustache for the month.  So in honour of the pain in the ass (literally) that is both prostate cancer AND growing a moustache for a month, I present you my first post for today.  Its deep 'n sexy and by the fantastic Nina Kraviz. A Russian club promoter turned DJ/producer/vocalist, from what I can tell this chick does it all and does it all very well.  I've been bopping to this one for a little while now, hope you enjoy the kind of creepy vocals about the "killing jar"

Nina Kraviz - Pain In The Ass

And this one I came across last week, a remix from NiCe7.  What I have heard from them in the past I generally like and this is no different.  I would hardly call it ground breaking territory as it sounds pretty dated back to the mid 90s or so, but I don't mind. A good track i a good track, and it gets me movin. :)
