Pink Mountaintops permalinkPink Mountaintops, aka Stephen McBean, sounds like the Carter Family with a dose of lo-fi fuzz rock. The songs are sweet and romantic yet, like a bad relationship, have enough drama to make them hard to walk away from.

Komakino permalinkKomakino is a pop-up menswear boutique with a severe case of A.D.D. After a couple of months in one Vancouver locale, they’ll close up shop and hang up their shingle in the next off-the-radar spot. It’s not just the mystique around the store’s transitory nature that’s worth noting, though. It’s also their stellar collection of European and Japanese avant garde designers that includes Rick Owens, Raf Simons, and Damir Doma.
