Ma tunes this week: 8 Track

ART & DESIGN

I follow some pretty lovely people on 8 Track and they’ve all got a wonderful ear for great tunes. Each week I usually find 1 or 2 playlist that keep me going through all the design work, and the ones above are winners this week.

Playlist 1: “Spring” created by Blogmilk
Playlist 2: “Sweet Sound 6” created by Sweet Thing Blog
Playlist 3: “Brave” created by The Flowerchild Dwelling
Playlist 4: “Harmony “created by For Me For You

An Early Spring Thing

ART & DESIGN

1 / 2 / 3 / 4 / 5 / 6

As a designer/creative person, I am constantly on the look out for things that will inspire me and bookmarking them for later. Pinterest has been a really great tool to aid in the process, but at some point you have to pick through the weeds to find inspiration for a particular project. My process is usually like this…

Step 1: Find some tunes that fit your current mood or the mood of the project you’re working on. (in this case: Coeurs De Pirate, Berceuse)

Step 2: Sift through all your gathered images/resources/links and pull out the ones that fit nicely with your concept or tone.

Step 3: Organize your findings neatly to help you tell your story

* Look for more of my mood boards in the future.

TONIGHT! (9PM Eastern Time) I’m a big St. Vincent fan and I’m going to try my best to get my batootie home to watch the live streaming of the event. If you’re looking for a new artist to follow, check her out! She released a new album this past July called Strange Mercy and it’s pretty darn amazing.

Watch Live in New York @ MTV Hive

Watch St. Vincent cover some of the best over at SPIN.com –>

If you like what you see, you must watch St. Vincent’s 4AD Session –>

Hi guys. I thought I would do something a little different today. I’ve designed some desktop wallpapers for you. I’ve just loved this section of the song After the Storm by Mumford & Sons and I’ve been wanting to do something with it.

Download the wallpapers by clicking on the links below and then saving the files. Let me know if you have any issues downloading or installing.
