“Metamorphosen” by Atelier Olschinsky

Last November, we featured a series of illustrations by Viennese design house Atelier Olschinsky. While their work is universally excellent, their recent series Metamorphosen really caught my eye. Check out the whole collection here, or head over to their website for more visual stimulation.

Neon Indian Presents: “Fallout” Music Video

Neon Indian released an awesome music video for their track “Fallout” out of their “Era Extraña” album. The video was made in collaboration with Adult Swim, more specifically animator Lilfuchs. The visuals feature a cartoon, big-breated, Pink-haired babe driving around in her convertible: that’s some 8os animated swag right there. Enjoy:

M.I.A – Bad Girls (Music Video)

Multi-talented U.K. artist M.I.A. just released the first single of her currently untitled album (which is supposedly scheduled to be released later this year). It’s a great video, directed by the ever-impressive Romain Gavras who brought us M.I.A.’s “Born Free” video, as well as Justice’s “Stress” video. Seriously, watch it. This video is legitimately badass.

NVRMND Picture of the Week

It’s good to be the king.

SPACEGHOSTPURRP Presents: “GXX XX BXXK” (GOD OF BLACK)

The KLVN’s and A$AP’s SPACEGHOSTPURRP aka “SPVCXGHXZTPVRRP” (in case you didn’t know: V = A, V = U, V = V, Z = S, X = E, X = O, etc.) just released his brand new mixtape titled “GXX XX BXXK” (I’ll let you guys understand what that means). The mixtape features a new, fresh, huston-funk sound to it, and in all honesty, is fucking quality. Purrp’s flow can sometimes be pretty simple on some tracks, but as he puts it “Destroy Competion / Cuz This Style Is Unique”, and really, it is as unique as it can get (MXXXXXXX MXX). Enough with the talk now, do yourself a favor and Download “GOD OF BLACK” NOW.

Stinner Frameworks Revisited

A little while ago we featured a piece about friend and framebuilder extraordinaire Aaron Stinner here at NVRMND. Since then, Aaron has continued honing his craft and is putting together some really remarkable bikes. These days with so much of what we use and consume is made overseas and without passion so it’s a breath of fresh air to see someone invested in what they love. The following video really illustrates Aaron’s vision and is worth watching for the production value alone. Enjoy!
