MGMT - Kids (Soulwax Nite Version)

finally, after waiting for months when they first played it live at slam tent 2008, the much anticipated remix is finally out on the electro music blogs near you. personally, i was more excited hearing the youtube version, where you see audience were intense with their jumping and air punching combined with the good lighting experience, only with mono audio.

anyway, as moody diaz (sln) said in the movie, Kakaba Kaba Ka Ba? "cam en geteeeet." =P

dita's imeldific hair

though i didn't got to see miss dita von teese's martini glass performance at the 18th birthday of belo medical group last night because, of course, i wasn't invited.

it's alright, thanks to friends, i had a wonderful opportunity to meet and shared a table with the burlesque superstar last thursday night at club mwah. it's a shame, that was also the first time i stepped in that las-vegas-showgirl-like club, only vekla performers.

we got there a little late na. dita and her crew were already there but luckily, the other invited guests were late as well, so i managed to sit almost in front of her. the performances were amazing, but my mind was utterly focused only on miss von teese's beautiful rose print red dress that matches her scarlet red lips, on how she fixed her neo-imeldific, jet black hair, on how she sipped her dom perignon, to how classy she scratched her right ear several times probably because of the clip-on earrings? para na akong stalker neto ah.

the international pin-up girl was totally busy watching the performances, that i sneaked stolen shots using my sucky phone cam. i introduced myself after show. she was super nice. she only got one bodyguard hired from here. she's pretty much down to earth, apart from what i thought na she was a diva. i only got one photo with her but sa cam ng isang friend, which i'll post... soon.

do it, do it : say it, say it

my picks from random newly released albums.

just click the collage.

song of the moment.

One of the most frequently used track for autumn/winter 2008-09 runway shows, like Chanel, Versace and some from London fashion week.

Trembled Blossoms

this dream sequence-like animation is a promotional short film for prada to complement their spring/summer 2008 collection. i got this bjork feel when i first heard the track, bjork, vespertine era. the illustration was kind of inspired by julie verhoeven.



and supported by the diffused version of the lord of darkness from the movie, "legend."



all in all, the video is cute.

Bravo Filipino - Fashion OST

photo by julles roberto

A slice from a series of cultural events to spotlight all Filipino talents from music, visual arts and fashion. Also to formally launch Greenbelt 5 wing. I was part of the prod. to do the music for the fashion segment.

I was also kind of responsible for the "kundiman-combo-rhumba-lumang-plaka-ish" mood music at the cocktail area, which i got from the vast collection of Don Jaime Zobel de Ayala's vinyl records back from the 1920s at the Himig Collection LIbrary.

Most of the tracks at the "living legends" segment are recommended by the designers themselves, so that g.l.a.m.o.r.o.u.s. part isn't mine. =P

"It's Sunday" track is used for the tribute to the late designers. The "Vanguard" and the "Finale" tracks are cuts from local:.//e! mix just for the Bravo Filipino event.

hi, this is ivn.
and this is my attempt to blog... yet, in another web site.
i usually do fashion show around my living room or dyed my hair when i'm alone and bored.
but i felt different today, and signed up for this blog.
this isn't a chika nor a hate site.
music is my sport and most likely to post something related to that.
