Friday Music Inspiration: Naturel – Momentous

Dope illustrations/designs from Naturel’s latest project Momentous.   What’s so great about this is the fact not only is Naturel a talented recording artist, but he’s also an incredible graphic and fashion designer.  He created all of the above images himself.  The album features 13 tracks and comes with a 30-page art booklet including the images displayed above.

Genius and yet another example of how art and music are so heavily intertwined.  Download it all for free here.

Street Art in Williamsburg

 

I was riding my bike on Bedford Avenue in Williamsburg, Brooklyn this past weekend when this street art caught my eye.  I love graffiti when it’s tastefully done and not defacing private property.  The above is a great example of that.

The below is a mural I saw on the Billionaire Boys Club blog.  Painted by Jesús Cerezo aka Jc Chus, in Seville, Spain, he uses a series of colorful swirls to add light to what is essentially a regular dead end street.  The end result is spectacular.

Friday Music Inspiration: Electric Punanny Mixtape

Hip-hop is my first love, but every once in a while I step out to explore something new to keep things interesting.  In one of these instances my homegirl, Lin, put me on to the Electric Punanny mixtape and I haven’t stopped listening to it since.

Featuring the music and mixes of DJs/rappers MeLo-X and Jasmine Solano, the album is a compilation of house, electric, dancehall, reggae and much more.  It’ll really get you on your feet and moving.

I saw MeLo-X at Live at the Loft last week and his music is very eclectic.  I also saw Jasmine Solano perform at Public Assembly last month and she also puts on a great show.

You can listen/download the mix here and check out the video to see how it all came together here.
Have a great weekend!
