BENAH LOVES | THE ACADEMY NEW YORK

Instagram account The Academy New York and it's many siblings are probably some our all time favourite feeds. Across music, art, and film (to come), there is always something in their collection of found images that will inspire and humor. If you aren't following them all, get to it now! They also so some damn good merch that is nearly always sold out.

Recently they have collaborated with BIG HUGS by CDR on images that will just make you feel warm, fuzzy and a little nostalgic. Everyone loves a good hug right??

MUSIC | Angus & Julia Stone

Australian siblings Angus and Julia Stone are set to launch a brand new album produced by the legendary Def Jam Records founder Rick Rubin. If you managed to catch the premier of their new single 'Heart Beat Slow' earlier this week on Triple J you may be as excited about this as we are. And if you didn't, listen to it here. In an interview with Music Feeds Julia revealed,

'He wanted to give our sound a bit more groove. His way of doing that was choosing a rhythm section that was predominantly hip hop'

Named the most important producer of the last 20 years by MTV,  Mr Rubins is responsible for some of the most memorable albums of our time. From The Bestie Boys, Red Hot Chilli Peppers, and Public Enemy, right through to Lana Del Ray and Kanye West. So it will be interesting to see what magic he weaves with this brother and sister duo.

The self titled album with custom type by Gemma O'Brien is set for release on Friday August 1st.

IN RESIDENCE | Caroline de Maigret

Model-turned-music producer and contemporary Chanel muse, Caroline de Maigret has gracefully returned to fashion’s consciousness since her reappearance on Chanel’s runway in 2011. She is the granddaughter of Prince Michel Poniatowski and daughter of Count Bertrand de Maigret, and since beginning her modeling career in 1994 she has launched a rock music label called Bonus Tracks Records with her partner and a publishing company called Yarock Editions. Her apartment in France is the epitome of undressed glamour and effortless chic, much like Caroline’s example of androgynous edge and feminine allure herself.

LET'S TALK

The Talks is a weekly updated online interview magazine founded in 2011 by Sven Schumann and Johannes Bonke.

Every week The Talks publishes an interview and portrait with a leading creative voice of our times. Simple, often short and to the point; each interview gives a personal insight into the world of the interviewee. 

The roll call is impressive. Broken down into the fields of art, film, fashion, music, and sports; think Meryl Streep, Vincent Cassel, Andre Saraiva and Nick Cave, to name but a few. 

 

It never feels like they are plugging a specific project/film/album. More like you are catching a snippet of a general 'life' conversation going on between friends. We especially love the audio samples.
