i really like Massive Attack's new album and i'm happy to discover a handful of recent album releases that are more than just filler space to accompany one hit single. this one off 'heligoland' has made me happy this evening:

Massive Attack- Splitting the Atom



this song showed on their 2009 ep and is freaky fresh

also, i have discovered my new favorite artist thanks to the rad new art gallery/bar space in oakland called Era. if you haven't been there, you should really check it out. it's a beautiful space that has been built and designed from scratch by a few town locals. the artist's name that Era introduced me to is Joshua Dildine and i wish that my paintings looked like his. see them:
