Prospect Design

Ever wondered why some of the hottest clubs in the world quite have all the same features in design? Probably not. But we did. Clubs like L’Arc in Paris, Maddox and Movida in London, some of VIP Room’s clubs, C Bar in Dubai and Le Baoli in Cannes for instance. All of these clubs were styled by one particular company: Prospect Design.

If you’re traveling a lot and if you’re looking for hotspots all over the world, have a look at their website. Inspiration galore!

Genius Or Rip Off

There’s a difference between sampling and just copying an entire song. It’s amazing that almost all of Kanye West’s songs are copies of early hits from past decades. That doesn’t make his songs bad, we’re big fans of Kanye. He introduces old songs to a new and young audience. But after this youtube movie I started downloading all of the original versions and had only one conclusion. You can never beat the original.

Kanye West brings us the newest video clip from his last album ‘808s & Heartbreak’. Directed by Nabil, it has become a small art film with beautiful cinematics. See for yourself.

How To Make It In America

Monseigneur Alexander — Mon, 22 Feb 2010 23:41:35 +0000

Entourage is one of our favorite television series. Ever. The new season takes a while to come and luckily, HBO helps us out with a whole new series: How to Make It in America.

How to Make It in America is an comedy-drama that premiered on HBO last week, on February 14. The series follows Ben Epstein and his friend Cam Calderon as they try to succeed in New York’s fashion scene.

The Entourage fan might think it looks a bit like Entourage. The way it’s filmed and the atmosphere in the series. Not so strange, since the whole Entourage crew of Mark Wahlberg, Stephen Levinson, Julian Farino and Rob Weiss were executive producers for this new series.

While watching you might find out that mr. Scott Mescudi makes his television debute as an actor. Scott Mescudi, better known as KiD CuDi is one of the best rappers – slash – entertainers of this time.

Make sure to watch it on HBO, or if you can’t receive this channel, on the interwebs. Here’s a little preview:

Audi RS5

Monseigneur Alexander — Sun, 21 Feb 2010 16:25:29 +0000

One of our favorite ‘non-supercars’ has always been the Audi S5. Distinguished, fast and not too flashy. Audi now turns it up a notch with the Audi RS5.

This car will be introduced on the car expo in Genève, which will be held on the 4th untill the 14th of march. Equipped with a V8 that gives the RS5 450 bhp, this car will be the ’stoplight killer’ of most supercars.

We can’t wait for this one to arrive!

“Die beste Afrikaanse blog en website in die heelal”
Added this blog to my favourites last week. I love the hilarious articles and the way the South-African language resembles so much with the Dutch. They won the South-African blog award in 2009 but are gaining a lot of publicity these days with their latest project “Die Antwoord“. With very dope songs like “Zef Side” and “Enter the Ninja” , Ninja, Yo-landi Vi$$er and DJ Hi-Tek will conquer all the festivals this year . Their album $o$ will be released soon by Sony.

Square

It was just a matter of time before something like this was invented. Since Februari 2009 has the Square team been developing a way to use your smartphone to accept credit card payments.

Square’s innovation is a small adapter that plugs into the audio output jack of any smart phone. After setting up an online account, you can use this adapter to accept credit card payments for anything. You can even send out receipts to the payer’s e-mail address. Square gives rewards and donates five cents from every purchase to a cause of your choice.

We’ve been waiting for this. If a friend ever owes me money again, he can’t use the excuse of not having any money on him any more. Just swipe the card! All we have to do right now is hope that the 26% thicker than normal credit cards titanium AmEx Centurion credit card fits trough this nifty little device…

These New Puritans

Monseigneur Alexander — Wed, 17 Feb 2010 13:16:19 +0000

These New Puritans are an art rock band from Great Britain. They make music so dope, that I decided to buy the album: Hidden.

The first track released from this album was We Want War. Dark and deep beats, hard basses and banging vocals. Listen to it for yourself:

If you’re living in America: the album’s dropping March 2 2010. In Europe it is already available at every good CD store. Not easy to listen, but that is what we digg about this album. Check it out!
