Valentine's Day 2013 mixtape

I've never made a mixtape for the Internet. I've made many for myself. I've made some for friends. I've made some for boys. This is just a compilation of songs to listen to today, or any day of the year.

Maybe I'll teach myself how to put together an actual one soon. But for now, songs about 'love' that I like.

"Too Young to Be in Love" Hunx & His Punx
"Lord Knows Best" Dirty Beaches
"Tears on my Pillow"Little Anthony and the Imperials
"Dream A Little Dream of Me" The Mamas and The Papas
"Hood" Perfume Genius
"Funnel of Love" Duck and Cover
"Crazy" Patsy Cline
"Same Mistakes" The Echo-Friendly
"I Want to be Your Girlfriend" Bachelorette
"You Don't Own Me" Lesley Gore
"A Teenager in Love" Dion and the Belmonts
"Losing Your Affection" Future Bible Heroes
"Harsh Realm" Widowspeak
"Grandloves (ft. Young Magic)" Purity Ring

VOYEUR UPDATE: ALEX LEE

A first look at Alex Lee of XXBC and wirdyblog.com's 7 Days submission for VOYEUR. I am excited to finally get this project back up and rolling. I know I make a lot of empty promises to the internet, but I am really intent on revitalizing my personal projects (like this one). 

Please keep an eye out for the many other contributors I have lined up including Alex Gehring of Ringo Deathstarr, designer Mary Meyer and my sister, who just got back from Berlin on a StyleSight mission.

... LIFE PENDING

I figured I ought to update this blog. Actually, I always do intend to. However, working 4 jobs tends to really interfere with personal projects, like blogging and VOYEUR. At least I had time to change my hair. 

Moving to BK has really been a huge change for me, and I'm really happy with my decision. I miss breakfast tacos, walking to Thunderbird and renting movies at Vulcan Video a lot, but feeling out what this city has to offer has been a blast -- if only I had more time/money to adventure around the city.

Keep updated with the blog and Voyeur for updates VERY SOON. I have disposable cameras and interviews coming in from designers Mary Meyer (who I recently worked for doing social media and PR) and John Renaud (who recently made a move to Berlin) and ones pending from other awesome folks.

If you ever have any suggestions for Voyeur features or want to submit yourself, please contact me HERE. Or if you just want to chat or collaborate on something in the near future, I'd love to hear it.

Leaving you with this Blood Orange video that I am still obsessed with:

CHOICE HALLOWEEN

I haven't lived here long enough to really know much about things going on. BUT - this is all I could dig up that interested me for Halloween weekend 2k12 so far. Found the flier at my new place of employment, KCDC Skateshop (I'm the new e-commerce manager).
