Spotted: Pretty in Pink

She’s cute. I mean, I have a freakin’ girl crush.

I love everything about her. Garance Dore takes the best street style pix.

Review: Monkey: Journey to the West OST

I wish I’m in London right now. I bought ‘Monkey: Journey to the West’ album yesterday and it’s the coolest sh*t ever! Damon Albarn has successfully progressed from Blur to The Good, The Bad & the Queen to Gorillaz to an opera composer for ‘Monkey: Journey to the West’. The Chinese readers will be more familiar with the background of the ‘Monkey’ story. This opera staged at the Royal Opera House is a killer collaboration “between old and new, sight and sound, East and West”. Guys, this is a ‘hot potato’ – and a must-listen! I don’t know about you but the sounds, electronic mix with alternative rock really blow me away. I want to watch the opera and hopefully, they do a world tour or something. Check it out.

Click on the “OHM” box above to listen to music from the OST!

The album artwork is another rendition of the Gorillaz. The illustrations add to the backdrop of the musical – which I think is really cool. This is definitely going to interest the indie/alternative crowd and an almost perfect way to introduce the Chinese folk story into the Western world.
