NYC 1981

Radical Media's Austin Peters was commissioned by the studio of A Most Violent Year to create a film about the period in which the story is set. what a fun way to promote the release of the film.  check out the important New Yorkers who defined the city, and inspired cultural mainstays today, such as Penny Arcade or Curtis Sliwa & my favourite, the one & only Dapper Dan who pretty much started what is more commonly referred to now as "Ghetto Fabulous!"

Every Breaking Wave

so U2 ain't my thing since they went all zooropa with 90s raver sunnies & shit.  however, Aoife McArdle's film is so nice it makes 2 of their new songs enjoyable, even cool.  Aoife brings U2 back to a time & place where the band & their music seemed relevant & good, well, at least good enough for when i was a teenager.  enjoy:
