Baby

We've been drinking coffee and listening to house music all day—again. Fortunately, there are videos, like this one, that are a little more soothing to the soul. (Via Pitchfork.)

Max Schaaf on Epicly Later'd

permalink

The second season of the Epicly Later'd show has hit and opens with a five part interview with skater and bike builder extraordinaire, Max Schaaf. It has to be the best episode I've seen yet, not just because I call Max a friend but because you want to hang out with him on a daily basis after spending just 10 minutes riding along in his truck being fully entertained by every story he tells. Check out episodes one and two now and the next few will air in upcoming weeks. -Jen

Sometimes the clouds open up and the disco-house gods answer all our prayers. Such is the case with Duck Sauce, a collaboration between A-Trak and Armand Van Helden. Check their first video, directed by Surface 2 Air, which channels a little bit of retro Patrick and Demi.

Devendra Banhart "Walillamdzi"

permalink

In an interview very much worth reading, Devendra Banhart complained to Pitchfork "...the labels have released the videos without me seeing them—incomplete videos that make no sense and make me look even dumber than I am." Could be why he's releasing this 'unofficial' video for "Walillamdzi" (oh, Devandra...) off of his upcoming major label debut, What Will We Be. (Via Stereogum.)
