Let's go downtown and talk to the modern kids

Using great big words that they don't understand

And I guess I'll just begin again

Arts Beat

You are the bread and the knife,
the crystal goblet and the wine.
You are the dew on the morning grass
and the burning wheel of the sun.
You are the white apron of the baker,
and the marsh birds suddenly in flight.

However, you are not the wind in the orchard,
the plums on the counter,
or the house of cards.
And you are certainly not the pine-scented air.
There is just no way that you are the pine-scented air.

It is possible that you are the fish under the bridge,
maybe even the pigeon on the general's head,
but you are not even close
to being the field of cornflowers at dusk.

And a quick look in the mirror will show
that you are neither the boots in the corner
nor the boat asleep in its boathouse.

It might interest you to know,
speaking of the plentiful imagery of the world,
that I am the sound of rain on the roof.

I also happen to be the shooting star,
the evening paper blowing down an alley
and the basket of chestnuts on the kitchen table.

I am also the moon in the trees
and the blind woman's tea cup.
But don't worry, I'm not the bread and the knife.
You are still the bread and the knife.
You will always be the bread and the knife,
not to mention the crystal goblet and - somehow - the wine.

Hooded Fang is a band from Toronto. I've been listening to their song, Land of Giants, a lot recently, its a good bicycle riding or dancing song. Anyways, I'm looking forward to future albums and such from this group. Enjoy this video of Hooded Fang from Southern Souls, a site that showcases bands playing in casual environments such as streets, grocery stores, bedrooms etc. Very similar La Blogotheque's Take Away Shows, except it focuses on musicians from the Southern Ontario area... click here to check out Southern Souls.

Here's the new video for Born Ruffian's What To Say off their upcoming album, Say it, and I must say that I am very excited for June 1st (the release date). What I have heard, sounds good, and thats all I really have to say... and Aviators, too bad it wasn't actually Mitch, just a look-alike.

Billykirk from The Scout on Vimeo.

Here is an interesting portrait of the very dapper looking Billykirk Brothers who make high end leather goods. Their philosophy of buying good quality, high end products once, instead of continuously buying heaps of crap really resonates with me. It seems as through things were just made better in the good ol'days. Below is one of their products that is currently on my wish list.

Swimmin' the Great Lakes

2010-04-21T11:25:00.000-07:00

I am a wee bit in love with Tony Dekker from The Great Lake Swimmers. I think it’s because most of his work is inspired by the wonders of Canada’s natural environment. There is something really humbling in that. “Your Rocky Spine” lyrics were circulating in my head as I drove across a large portion of Ontario, passing through quaint small towns and scenic farmland. Their CD Lost Channels, plus a Canadian road trip=perfection.

Angus & Julia

2010-04-06T19:45:00.000-07:00

The Australian siblings, Angus and Julia Stone, are here with their second album, Down the Way. Sibling acts are truly wonderful and in this case beautiful. Though I appreciate the alternating vocals and their distinct styles, I must admit that I prefer Angus' voice. So far, my favourite song from the album is Black Crow...

I love this man. His mustache, accent, stories. Trisarahtops, I think when you do illustrations for books, you should have a workplace like his. I would come visit everyday.

Whimsy Birds

2010-03-26T09:49:00.000-07:00

I love these prints by Diana Sudyka. They are very whimsy and spring like and remind me of the illustrations from some of my favourite childhood books. An interesting fact about the wonderful Diana Sudyka, is that she has worked for Andrew Bird - what a wonderful pairing.

It's Time to Say It

2010-03-20T11:10:00.000-07:00

So, the Born Ruffians new album, Say It, is expected to be released June 1st. I'm really liking the album cover, it reminds me of the crystal I found it the park a few days ago... Anyway, the song, Sole Brother, is track number three on the album, and if you'd like you can download a version of it on Daytrotter Sessions... click here and may I suggest downloading Skeleton Me as well, it's quite wonderful.

I came across this video by chance, and I just had to replay several times. This band, The Heebie Jeebies, reminds me of a UK version of the Born Ruffians; it's a good sound. Enjoy this homemade music video...

Spring Mix: Part I

2010-03-08T18:05:00.000-08:00

To my dear Trisarahtops, here is to a wonderful spring filled with April showers, May flowers and many adventures. I hope you enjoy part one of your spring mix.

The Lords of Dogtown

2010-02-20T13:08:00.000-08:00

Dr Dog's new album Shame, Shame is expected to be released April 6th. This album is said to have a more modern and edgy sound, compared to previous works. Dr Dog is commonly compared to the likes of The Beatles, or The Band, but I think they do their own thing. Their new single, Shadow People, still sounds a lot like their old stuff, and I think that there's nothing wrong with that.

Seabear is Swimming Again

2010-02-19T08:43:00.000-08:00

Seabear, the lovable folk band from Reykjavik, Iceland, is back with their new album, We Built a Fire. I believe, that this album was supposed to be released in March 2010, but as it is out at the moment, enjoy it now. On another note, I'd just like to mention that band member, Ingibjörg Birgisdóttir, makes all the album artwork and videos by hand. I admire crafty people.

Here's the single version of Lion Face Boy.

Copenhagen is the Place

2010-02-10T07:12:00.000-08:00

I recently discovered that there's a blog entirely dedicated to posting pictures of fashionable people riding beautiful bicycles... It's called Copenhagen Cycle Chic, and it's pretty inspiring... click here. These wonderful people will ride their bicycles through a foot of snow, and they'll even carry Christmas trees home using their bikes!! After seeing this blog, Copenhagen is officially my favourite city that I've never been to.

It's Showtime

2010-01-25T19:24:00.000-08:00

I have been dancing like this in my room. Why? Because I can, and this song will make you want to.

Yes You Do

2010-01-23T08:19:00.000-08:00

This is quite the video; Nick Diamonds and Michael Cera make an explosive and magical duo. Not only is it entertaining, but it serves the viewers with an important piece of information... you have to be careful when purchasing drugs from "the man you don't know", or you may wake up covered in sequins and rhinestones.

Mixed CDs

2010-01-05T18:43:00.000-08:00

I've been making mixed CDs for a while, it's a good way to share music. I was inspired by the mixed tapes exchanged in the novel, Perks of Being a Wallflower. Not only do I enjoy picking out the songs, but making the album artwork as well. Mixed CDs make nice gifts, but it's even better to get a one in return. This is my latest, The Dream Catcher Mix...

Karen O and the (wild) Kids

2009-12-29T10:40:00.000-08:00

Here is a beautiful song that will cheer you up on a rainy, gray day. It's from the wonderful Spike Jones movie Where the Wild Things Are. I promise you will hum right along with it.

Our Favourites of '09

2009-12-26T19:01:00.000-08:00

2009 came and went with beautiful songs along the way. The selection wasn't as "meaty" as 2008, but there are still songs worth noting. After diligently going through our itunes playlists, we have each decided on five of our favourite songs.

1. Clues - Let's Get Strong

2. Bowerbirds - Northern Lights

3. Gregory Pepper & His Problems - 7ths and 3rds

4. Grizzly Bear - While You Wait For the Others

5. Andrew Bird - Fitz & Dizzyspells

1. The Middle East - Blood

2. Coconut Records - I Am Young

3. Great Lake Swimmers -Pulling on a Line

4. Sam Roberts - Waking the Dead

5. Kings of Convenience - Mrs. Cold

Must Be Santa

Oh, Bob Dylan. This looks like some Christmas party!

Hilarious. Christmas spirit with a sense of humour!

The Ugly Christmas Sweater

2009-12-15T09:27:00.000-08:00

Over the past few years, I've noticed a growing trend, the ugly Christmas sweater, and it's not just Grandmas wearing them. When it comes to these sweaters, the tackier, sparklier, and more over-embellished, the better. There are websites designed to help you find the perfect ugly sweater, like Rusty Zipper, but hunting through second hand stores is more of an authentic ugly Christmas sweater shopping experience. Start your search today because tacky Christmas sweaters go quick, honestly.

Joy to the World in Bells

Happy Holidays

2009-12-04T20:08:00.000-08:00

I've had this song on my ipod for a few weeks now, I really liked it, only I didn't know the band's name... Well, the band's called Holiday Shores and song is Days Drag from their latest album, Columbus'd the Whim, which came out in August. I'd classify their sound as lo-fi psych rock. Be sure to give Holiday Shores a listen on your holidays.

Trees Inside Out

2009-11-27T12:20:00.000-08:00

Love these pieces by artist Judith Belzer. All of her work is inspired by the textures and colours of nature, making all of her pieces naturally beautiful. :) The pieces below are from her collection called "Trees Inside Out" which can be found here.

Looking Into the Past

2009-11-25T20:02:00.000-08:00

Here is a really interesting collection of photos called "Looking Into the Past". The photographer is named Jason Powell, and his Flickr photo steam can be found here. What a fantastic idea! There are a number of places in my hometown that would be perfect for a photo like this. Cities can change very quickly, and most of the time we don't even notice.

A French Story

2009-11-25T19:47:00.000-08:00

A very cute French story created by Google. Boy, do I want to go to Paris!

Winter Clothes

2009-11-22T10:13:00.000-08:00

Love these winter looks by Filippa K. Can't wait until the snow finally arrives! That means hot chocolate, skating, snowmen and lots of layers to keep warm.

Gregory Pepper and His Talents

2009-11-08T14:54:00.000-08:00

In all honesty, though I like discovering new bands, I find that opening acts at concerts tend to put me to sleep; but while attending an Islands concert last night, I was pleasantly surprised to find myself not wanting the band, Gregory Pepper and His Problems, to finish up. This band seems to have eclectic sources of inspiration, from Vaudeville and disco, to polka. They remind me a bit of the Unicorns with more theatrics. Head over to their myspace (click here), have a listen, and don't leave until you've listened to 7ths and 3rds.

On another note, Gregory Pepper is an illustrator and printmaker, the following are examples of his work...

Beautiful Bikes

2009-11-07T16:48:00.000-08:00

To continue with the last biking related post - here are a few beautiful bicycles that would look good no matter where you are riding them. My co-blogger and I both own CCM Galaxies and love them, but I would be just as happy with one of these to ride around town. The dashing red one is from Linus Bike and the colourful one is from Urban Outfitters Bike Shop.

Beautiful Bike Seats

2009-11-05T06:51:00.000-08:00

If it is not apparent in our name, my co-blogger and I really love bicycles. There is nothing better than a sunny day riding along the trails by lake Ontario. Both of our bikes are very old, so there is always something that can be done to fix them up a bit. These gorgeous leather bike seats from leather artist, kara ginther are on my wishlist!

“Polaroid will once again manufacture a range of classic instant film products like the Polaroid 600 instant film, and also bring a range of instant cameras to use them, including the easy to use Polaroid One. Polaroid cameras and Polaroid film should both go one sale by the middle of 2010, less than two years after the company collapsed for the second, and what appeared, final time.”

Public art with a twist! What a neat idea. I could spend all day jumping on the different steps trying to create different songs. I will never grow up. ;)

I've just learnt of a group called Netherfriends, I liked their name, so I thought I'd do a bit of research... They're from Chicago and they're currently on tour. I suppose they'd be filed under the psych pop genre, I don't know, Netherfriends remind me a lot of The Dodos, and a little bit of Margot and The Nuclear So & So's. Here, decide for yourself...

Some deliciously beautiful green tea I had yesterday. Another thing I love about autumn.

This gave me goosebumps. It's like you are peering into someone elses memories.

I was on the iTunes store, just browsing around, its actually a pretty good way to discover new bands, anyway, in the Just For You section, iTunes had recommended me a band called The Morning Benders. Usually, I'm not a huge fan of their recommendations, but not this time... This Californian group is quite good, it's sweet, summery and not over complicated by unnecessary sounds. I'm excited for future albums. Please enjoy one song off their most recent album Talking Through Tin Cans, and a Paul Simon cover...

I am a rock, I am an Islands' fan

The Montreal-based band is back with their third album, Vapours, which comes out today (the 22nd)! I have a feeling I'm going to like it no matter what. I happen to be a big fan of anything Nicholas Thorburn (aka. Nick Diamonds) does; whether he's with The Unicorns, Human Highway, or in this case, Islands. Judging by the cover and the brief listening that I did do, Vapours seems to be more of a dance album compared to previous albums, oh well, dancing's always a good thing.

Enjoy the title track...
