Alpines is a UK-based duo which has come to my attention only a couple of weeks ago (shame on me), when I found their collaboration with Dark Sky called Tremors. (Track at the end of this post)

I am currently obsessing over Coccoon (video -directed by hope- below) and their Akira Kiteshi Remix of Drive which heads to a much darker direction from the original version, in my humble opinion.  

So, here -in this post- we have H&M, Marni and Sofia Coppola. Too bad that by the time I go to Milan -in the beginning April- absolutely nothing will be left, since the Marni/H&M line will be available on March 8.

The ad, filmed in Marrakech-Morocco, showcases the multitude of prints in the line and has an impeccably classy 80s feel and hue. The result is as fitting to the line, as was the choice to go with Coppola for such a collaboration between the Italian fashion house and the Swedish retailer.

That twisted twisted mind of Romain Gavras can produce pure awesomeness (not a big fan of his more violent work however). The camera work in this video is amazing and -really- could the imagery be more appropriate for this amazing song? 

annakoumoushi strikes bulseye right at the center of our hearts with this awesome Valentine's Day promo. Created by the awesome Myria K! I love the "infographic" approach!

Not a V-Day kind of type myself, but this feels all warm and right.

In research for ideas and inspiration on how to make a collection/preview video -among other things- I found this gem here: Chicago-based menswear line J.Cheikh teamed with Mike Ruiz for their new collection and released an eye-catching, really impressive preview video for their Spring/Summer 2012 line.

I was blown away by the awesome graphics in the video -and the video in general. Then, I was blown away to find that the director Ryan Fukuda, the editor and graphic designer Alex Deaton and the cinematographer Paul Kane are all (fellow) Columbia College Chicago alumni!

I'm not sure if we'll ever get it officially here, but I am so fascinated by the idea! So with the Nike+FuelBand, Nike intoduces NikeFuel, (hello there, new favorite metric system!). 

I cannot wait to get my paws on one of these. Or better, get one of these on my paw. Then I'll just have to discover more new stuff to do. Plus: I will be able to finally measure the impact of my new obsession; the Tabata workout.

Despite the fact that this project was shot last year, I just managed to finish it a few weeks ago and uploaded it today. The full project lives here.

One of the many that got away.

Is that you Kate Moss?

Found this illustration by Fabian Ciraolo flying around the interwebs. Mightly classy those Cats are.

My sister (being the one of two musicians in the family), brought this pure awesomeness to my attention (after discovering it with the other musician in the family: my brother).

(Jarle) Bernhoft is, basically, a one man band; and an awesome band, that is. Solidarity Breaks, his second solo album, was released early 2011 and topped the charts in Norway, his home-country, over the summer.
