Sufjan Stevens - You Are The Blood + Remix

Did you ever heard about the "Dark Was the Night" compilation, released in 2009, the sales of this LP aims to benefit to the Red Hot Organization specialized on AIDS and HIV.

This masterpiece produced by Aaron and Bryce Dressner from the National is definiltely a must have for all the indie folk-rock fans. It features the National, Feist, My Brightest Diamond, Antony and the Johnsons, and many more.

My favorite track of the compilation is performed by Sufjan Stevens, a genious singer, songwriter and musician from Detroit. I also give you the remix from the canadian emcee/producer Buck 65. Wax from my Girlfriend! Enjoy this, do not download the compil', buy it please, this is for a very good cause.

Dave Kinsey

You all probably already know the design studio/company BLK/MKT because of the huge success of Shepard Fairley-Obey during Obama's presidential campaign.
Dave Kinsey is the other founding member of BLK/MKT. He started his work in the street drawing, painting, sticking some portrayals of urban characters.

You'll see below what he used to do years ago, great transcription of the urban contemporary life... Check out what he's doing now on his website, a little bit different...

Dave Kinsey also worked on designing a mini-serie of 4 twelve inches released on Om record, label founded by the rap band People Under The Stairs.
I would say that they're worth to buy for the covers, my favorite track is an instrumental one by Mission and Michael Morgan.
