Recycled Can Sculptures by Makaon

Japanese artist Makaon creates fantastic pop culture artworks using recycled cans.

“…Macaon used a healthy mixture of both recycled beer and soda cans. This is quite apparent in pieces like the Mario character, which looks to be crafted from mostly Coca-Cola cans with a mixture of both Coke zero and the classic good stuff. ”

48 HOURS WITH THE SIDE STEPS QUINTET

Show some support to my little cousin back in New Zealand who has created a creating a music piece in 48 hours –

The Side Steps Quintet are of the Young, Gifted & Broke Label in Auckland, New Zealand.

Recently we took up the challenge of writing a piece of music in 48 hours, we then recorded it in Red Bull Studio then mixed, mastered it ourselves.

Oddly enough The Side Steps Quintet originally consisted of only two members, Si-Res & Dandruff-Dicky.

The Quintet grew organically to be true to it’s name over course of the last few months at regular live Improvisations led by the beats of the original 2 members thickened by each of their live instrumentation (Saxophone & Jazz Guitar.) & presented to the listener by Hone Be Good by way of free & written rhyme, using subtle microphone effects to compliment the musical style, usually accompanied by Tonga Vaea &/or Tyra Hammond to provide & an enchanting, honest & balanced Listening experience.

These live shows at times took place opening for the likes of Onra, Odissee & Dibiase.

From this foundation came the the opportunity to record the first installment of music by the quintet being Si-Res aka @Si_Res (Home Brew, Harbour City Electric Production), Dandruff-Dicky aka @Dandruffdicky (Home Brew, At Peace production), Tyra Hammond aka @TyraHammond (previously vocalist for The Open souls), Tonga Vaea aka @Tonga_Vaea (keys & trumpet for Home Brew, Three Houses Down & Oui groove) & Hone Be Good @Honebegood (MC/vocalist Oui Groove & the rest of the YG&B)

This project was a collaborative effort between the five members with the beat production by The Side Steps Quintet, Mixed by Dandruff-Dicky, Saxophone & Trumpet by Dandruff-Dicky & Tonga Vaea, Guitar by Si-Res, vocals written & recorded by Hone-Be-Good, Tonga Vaea & Tyra Hammond.

Below is a link to hear & download the music for free, secondly the group of artists we represent & lastly our Facebook.

Star Wars: Episode 7 Coming in 2015 as Disney Buys Lucasfilm

Disney has just confirmed that they will acquire George Lucas‘ Lucasfilm Ltd for $4.05 billion, in a deal that includes rights to the Star Wars franchise. Disney has scheduled Star Wars: Episode 7 for a 2015 release, with future movies to come every two to three years. Not much is known about what to expect from the films other than the fact that Lucasfilm’s Kathleen Kennedy will be executive producer on any forthcoming Star Wars movies, while George Lucas himself with serve as creative consultant.

“For the past 35 years, one of my greatest pleasures has been to see Star Wars passed from one generation to the next,” said Lucas. “It’s now time for me to pass Star Wars on to a new generation of filmmakers. I’ve always believed that Star Wars could live beyond me, and I thought it was important to set up the transition during my lifetime. I’m confident that with Lucasfilm under the leadership of Kathleen Kennedy, and having a new home within the Disney organization, Star Wars will certainly live on and flourish for many generations to come. Disney’s reach and experience give Lucasfilm the opportunity to blaze new trails in film, television, interactive media, theme parks, live entertainment, and consumer products.”

Technically in the new film should pick up after Star Wars: Episode 6 — Return Of The Jedi, the third film in the initial trilogy that came out in 1983. We can’t wait to see what comes of this.
