Tumblr-types in the Free Press
Well, look at that! My Tumblr pals Aggie and Albertine done got themselves in the newspaper and stuff. Follow the linkage.
Justin Bieber - Runaway Love (ft. Raekwon and... →
exclaimclickhear:
All right, if you still didn’t believe this was happening, here you go: a joint track from Raekwon, Kanye West and, yes, Justin Bieber. The song is dubbed “Runaway Love” and it samples the Wu classic “Wu-Tang Clan Ain’t Nuthing Ta Fuck Wit.” Seriously.
I’m listening to this right now. It’s…surreal.
Funk Boat!
About to board the Paddlewheel Queen for the Funk Boat, possibly the dopest party of the year. Nothing but the best beats via DJ Co-op, DJ Hunnicutt, and special guest Charlie Hustle…on a boat!
Hope y’all are having as much fun as we’re about to have!
Know what I'm doing?
Downloading Kid Koala’s Solid Steel mix, aka music to draw to… As I write this, it’s available for the next three days, and signing up is required, but it’s worth it. I mean, c’mon…it’s Ninja Tune!

“You have to clear everything. You have to clear the T-shirts in the film. It’s a...”
– Edgar Wright on clearing the visual/sound gags for Scott Pilgrim vs. The World. Now I know where the “4½” comes from. (via CraveOnline.com)

The lady behind this, now gives us this: the seven evil exes.
“So, yeah, fuck this dude and anyone on the planet like him. Unfortunately, it’s...”
– NYC producer Blockhead on this dude. Holy shit.
Stumptown Printers D.I.Y.
As I write this, there are only seven group members and ten pictures in this Flickr pool, but I’m sure it’ll grow in short order. Stumptown Printers are the shit, man. Sarah and I used their 4-Panel joints for our wedding CD.
I'm hestitant to give props to anything R....
…but I like the cover of this “When A Woman Loves” single. Mainly for the modified Hellenic Wide type arrangement. The song? Earnest retro cheese.

That’s some sad news, to say the least. I saw Perfect Blue years ago, and I should see it again. Paranoia Agent was truly chilling.
“I always prefer to come up with concepts on my own, but when a band comes to you...”
– Justin Santora on his Make Do And Mend poster. Brilliant.

SO cute!
An anonymous individual asks Frank Chimero: "what... →
And Frank’s got the right attitude. My type snobbery has mellowed over the years, or at least I think so. I do tend to bristle when I see Papyrus used for something Gaelic, but I do my best to downplay it…because no one else gives a fuck. And that’s a sobering thought.

Reason 1 is bullshit. I’m 35 and I loved it.

Video I did for the Edge of Town album, I forgot to tell you about it. My baby is in it near the end!
Look who’s messing with Tumblr! I’m looking forward to the Paper Champion EP. September 21st, folks!

This is a meme I can get behind.

I like this. He drew what her soul looks like! By the way, there’s a cool interview with Mark Kaufman at Escape From Illustration Island. I do believe it was my introduction to his work.
OMG Posters: “Street Ministry (RIP Guru)” Art... →
Dave Kinsey is the illest. The fact that it’s a tribute to Guru makes it that much more dope.
I need this.
But first, I need a PS3.
Watchsirmitchell:
This Black Keys song is pretty awesome, and the video is pretty fun too.
It’s crazy…I’ve known about this vid for MONTHS, and I’ve just now bothered to watch it. It was worth the wait! You should follow Mike Mitchell, by the way. He’s the man behind this.
Tips From John K.
Stay organized: keep track of everything you draw, and store different things in folders
Clean your workspace every day: Don’t leave a giant mess on your desk at the end of the day. You will waste valuable time next day hunting through the mess trying to find what you need.
Write Down Everything You Learn and Observe: The more you write don what you are doing, the better the concepts...

Martha Cooper Photographs Os Gemeos and Futura... →
It doesn’t get much more awe-inspiring than this. Martha Cooper and Henry Chalfant are the photographers behind Subway Art, the book that captured early 80s NYC graf and exposed it to the world. Futura is one of the legends from that scene, and one of a handful of those folks to successfully transition to the galleries and apparel. Os Gemeos are twin brothers whose work I’d see...
Aesthetic Apparatus' Kid Chameleon Poster →
A Scott Pilgrim poster by those Minnesota madmen. I’ve had the pleasure of visiting them a couple times. Here’s a photo of Michael and Dan from 2005.
Crumb (1995) - The Criterion Collection →
I’ve seen this film multiple times, including three theatre views. It kicks my ass every time. If any film deserves the Criterion treatment, it’s this one.
Another thing...

Y'know what's really cool?
Seeing kids wear shirts you designed! Big shout-out to the homie Pip Skid and CKUW for getting me to do it!
I'm now following Fuck Yeah Kim Pine...
…because my irrational crush must manifest itself somehow. Come on, admit it. You love her, too. Follow.

In regular and “nega”. Amazing work! If you love posters, toys, and art in general, OMG Posters! should be a regular stop for you.
