Bored at work, my dark-eyed exciting art friend started flipping through the Frieze book, showing me everything I’d missed that day. “Mirrors are everywhere,” she said, “And fibers, too.” I paused on a painting with a phone number written on it. “Call me,” it said. So plaintive! So humble! “Is that a real number?” I asked her. “Can’t be!” said Rae. She’s smart and savvy; wild as she is, she couldn’t imagine anyone being that dumb, to just put their number there. But I could imagine. I’m that dumb myself. I called the number, and Joshua Abelow answered. He said most people texted, that it was nice to hear from me, and that he was reading a book about a shy detective. I felt dizzy and happy. I miss the old days, and will not be friending him on Facebook.

chiaraatik:

“For everyone who arrives to a gala or premiere in a limo, there ten others who arrive by subway. The vast majority of the people at parties are there to work: an army of PR girls in headsets and heels, servers who went on five auditions that morning, reporters who will be up til three writing their story, a phalanx of photographers on the red carpet and a handful more inside, security guards, cooks, bartenders, people to set up the tables and tents, people who take them down. There’s an entire industry of people who go to parties like this every. single. night.”

(Probably my favorite thing I’ve ever written — and it’s funny how quickly, after only two years, I forgot.)

Baby Dayliner- You Push, I’ll Go

There is nothing about this song to not love, from the simple synth-laden hook to Baby Dayliner’s (AKA Ethan Marunas from NYC) desire for a vodka soda with lime, there’s literally nothing wrong with this song. As a favorite performer of The National, we can see why he was signed to their old record label, Brassland Records. Baby Dayliner hasn’t released an album since 2006, maybe we’ll get a new one soon…

Caught some rando performing the Twin Peaks theme on an accordion in the Metropolitan subway station last night. It was too beautiful not to record.

redvelvetteacake:

“I don’t have fun. Actually, I had fun once. In 1962. I drank a whole bottle of Robitussin cough medicine and went in the back of a 1961 powder-blue Lincoln Continental to a James Brown concert with some Mexican friends of mine. I haven’t had fun since. It’s not a word I like. It’s like Volkswagens or bell-bottoms, or patchouli oil or bean sprouts. It rubs me up the wrong way. I might go out and have an educational and entertaining evening, but I don’t have fun.”

You guys kept asking, so I decided to build a custom Pandora station to share with everybody. It’s seeded with a hand picked list of artists, and you’re guaranteed to get a super eclectic mix of killer tunes.

This link should take you to Pandora and create a shared station on your account called Coquette Radio.

I’ll keep it updated with fresh artists and tracks. Enjoy!

Watch the apocalyptic video for Jack White’s “Sixteen Saltines” directed by AG Rojas.

This and the “Crazy Clown Time” video should be friends.
