Got Milk?

Since I heard Joya Mooi's When I Take A Step Back I've been waiting for her album Hard Melk. And as of today the album is out. I suggest to buy the album, 'cause the design of the cover is really cool.

Did I mention Joya Mooi went to Artez, the academy of music in Arnhem? That the tracks on the album are produced by Full Crate, SirOJ, Hayzee, Big2, Dub Spensa, Presto, Wan and Orange Breakdown? That Hard Milk is also the original soundtrack of the theaterplay BH? That the tourdates can be find here? And that you can listen to the full album on 3voor12 Luisterpaal?





Tracklist:
*My Day ft. Mar
*Doctor
*Poor Boy
*Lighthouse
*Are You Lonesome
*Hard Melk Anthem
*When I Take A Step Back
*Pact With The Sun
*I Left
*Get Me ft. Jonnboi

Just in case

I just came back from a dinner with my Frisco Store friends. I already tweeted about this, but someone showed me her spectacle-case and I'm still baffled by this design by Lindberg. Simple, yet effective.

If the shoe fits

If you call yourself a sneakerfreak or sneakerhead you need to know (or have) at least something what's in this article. History, books, blogs, celebrities, classic models, cities to buy sneakers, etc. And a lot of links to keep you busy.

Put it on the Riz

Yesterday I was in a conversation with someone and she told me she was refreshing her music folder on her laptop. I thought maybe it was a good idea to do the same thing. It was almost like being in an vinyl store. Fortunately, there's no such a thing as digital dust, haha.

I can't remember how I got this one, but I came across a mix by DJ Riz with originals sampled in Hip-hop tracks. Know and love your originals is what I'm saying, so check out Live From Brooklyn part 1 & 2.
