IT'S OKAY TO BE PRETTY

I used to think I needed to be all hard all the time. My mom always asks me "why don't you sing prettier like your friend that Feist girl? You'd make a lot more money".

Siigh. Maybe I'm getting maudlin as I get older, but maybe mom is right. Not about the money thing...I'm just more in touch with things of beauty lately. And less ashamed to admit it.

The Charlotte Gainsbourg album is pretty good. This is my favorite track, hands down. She nails that creepy sexy thing. She's a Gainsbourg, it's in her blood.

THE NEW HOT CHIP ALBUM IS AWESOME

I can't stop playing it. It makes me so happy. It's perfect for keeping pep in my step on the crosstrainer at the gym...and also for languid makeout sessions. So down with it.

I think I'm gonna paint my livingroom like that. I was so wrong to think horizontal stripes would look odd.


Also. I found my glasses. They're gonna be ready next week. I didn't go with Super frames because when I tried them on...they were fucking massive for my little face. Like, stupidly massive. Beyond the pale massive. So I've opted for a more tasteful and proportioned variation from the Oliver Goldsmith "Legacy Collection". I realize I sound like a self absorbed hipster douchebag when I write like this, but man, if you saw my current sad excuse for eyewear, you'd forgive my excitement. The frames I chose are this awesome smoky grey clear plastic. They make me feel like a young hot Anna Wintour. Yes.

HAPPY VALENTINES DAY - BREAKUP II MAKEOUT

So, Valentines Day is here. Some feel joy, some feel misery. My feelings are...mixed. It was a fukka year for Cobrapants. This mixtape was cathartic as hell,and chronicles my emotions post breakup to recovery. Worry not, a downer it ain't. In fact, I consider it thus far, my magnum opus when it comes to mixes. Recorded live in the studio in one single pass and aided by many tears, cigarettes and bottles of wine.
Kiss and make up. For all the lonely hearts and the loving hearts, Cobrapants loves you all...

GORILLAZ STYLO - LABRYNTH REMIX

Sorry if I'm Gorillaz-yaing out, but I need to strive for the "scoop". This is in my inbox today, an 8bit crunchy dirty remix. Yo, that shit's so fresh it's not even on hypem yet. Golf claps all round for Labrynth. Also included is the Alex Metric...more party-tastic remix. Both are solid.

COUNTDOWN TO HEARTBREAK 2

Tomorrow I plan on re-unveiling (is that a word?) the valentine's mix...for now I am leaving you with probably...what my damaged heart considers its favorite and most romantic song ever.
Ever.

COUNTDOWN TO HEARTBREAK

Ah, Valentine's Day approaches. Personally, I love Valentine's Day. Here's to beautiful melancholy and heartbreak. Also, "Meet Me Halfway" is a total guilty pleasure and made a grillion times better if possible by the inclusion of the Little Boots. Courtesy of DJ Maggie Mash

GORILLAZ - PLASTIC BEACH

Aww fuck I am so stoked about this upcoming release. The list of collaborators is enough to make you want to cream. Bobby Womack, Paul Simonen, Mick Jones, Snoop Dogg, Lou Reed, Barry Gibb..and the list goes on. Apparently it is rumoured to be the LAST Gorillaz album...which...rather sucks.

A ton of bonus goodies will be included in the deluxe release, DVD of the making of, access to crazy online games, extra video and audio. Check the video trailer.

Here's "Stylo". Srsly, I've been rockin this all evening long and it makes me feel all smooth and silky.

SEX NERD

I got REALLY drunk at a DJ gig last week and left the power supply for my laptop at the venue. How unprofessional, I know. What's more pathetic is how I've been rationing my internet time watching my battery drain slowly..slowly. But whatever. I got my shit back, we're all good.

I need glasses. I can't see for shit. It makes for some embarrassing moments. But I'm on the case. Right now I'm all about Super Eyewear. Pretty clunky/eighties/douchebaggy but classic. I can't resist. Having a hard time deciding between


The top pair are called "Aspen"...and that blue fade is sick, but the "Crystal Nerd" is appealing for so many obvious reasons.

Even though they come in a classic black, I'm gonna opt for total geek hotness with an additional pair of frames in a Cat's Eye shape. I once had a bitchin' pair..sadly they were damaged when I got into a fistfight with a bum. I stumbled across this vintage online store and omg if some of these aren't the best ever.
