it’s friday, it’s england vs algeria, it’s weekend, it’s winterwell festival…so many reasons to be happy. and here is another one: cakehead loves evil. what. a. great. blog. 

hello my friends! hope you are all marvelous can’t believe it is already friday… i guess time flies when you are having fun and have good music to keep you going.

from experience i know that many people go out and do record shopping during the weekends, mostly because it is a process that can take a bit of time and requires a certain level of devotion and dedication (or maybe it’s just for a music freak like me and the rest of my music geek friends who enjoy digging for records and discovering new things, you tell me). either way, no matter what kind of music you prefer and in what format you like it in, one release that i personally feel that you simply have to get is the new flying lotus album cosmogramma released on warp. it is one of the best records i have heard so far this year and is definitely that is needed in your collection! for a taste, have a listen to one of the tracks, have (n) below:

if that is not enough to tickle your taste buds, have a look at the video below which explains the process and thought behind the work that has gone into making the absolutely magnificent and stunning album artwork:

and if i still haven’t convinced you to get cosmogramma, head over to juno and have a listen to the entire record, i can guarantee that it will take you on the most extraordinary musical journey.

when the sun is shining and you just want to lay about on a beach all day with your mates, the place that comes to mind is always ibiza. the centre of the tropical party paradise, it’s a virtual mecca during the summer.

victoria beckham is joining a host of other celebrities to feature as a scantily clad mermaid in an upcoming spongebob squarepants episode. also in the show are john o’ hurley and sebastian bach, all taking on a role as a member of bikini bottom’s royal family.

beckham will play queen amphitrite, and is said to be over the moon about it. apparently the show is a firm favourite with the beckham boys, who couldn’t be prouder!

last week in la, famous items were auctioned off in a profiles of history auction. the main drawcard being the iconic pink dress that marilyn wore in “gentleman prefer blondes“, which sold for a whopping $213,000 (£144,500)! 

perhaps the high street will have an imitation up soon?

the weekend already feels like a distant memory in the past, and you can’t seem to figure out where it all went so quickly. but fear not, if you need that extra boost to properly get into the new week and wipe away that awful monday blues, i have stumbled upon a great revival mix that is guaranteed to turn those frowns upside down. it is a 30 minutes mini mix made by edinburgh based dj and radio host overtime, and it features some killer sounds by some sassy female artists including kinny, lizzy parks and the queen of soul, aretha franklin. so time to get out of that grump and start shuffling those feet instead, you won’t be able to sit still to this one!

today is no ordinary friday, because today is the kick off of the 2010 world cup! yeeha! so this week, we give a very special blog love to deerbrains, who we first encountered on twitter a while back.
