Which Speedlite is the way to go for shooting at clubs/parties? Or is there a better alternative?

Music criticism blog. Everything from dubstep, beat scene, electro, live shows, etc. etc if thats your thing. No reviews or mp3s. Beware of long analytical paragraphs.

Although its not necessarily a bad look, this kindve just screams out 'hipster' to me. The Ray Bans, oversized deep V, faded denim shirt, rolled up high shorts.

grey suit maroon tie is what i wanna wear

peep her collar too

farewell to the summer light

Good film, nice tastes.

Damn 3 months, congrats thats some commitment right there. Do you think 3 weeks is enough or should I hold out for awhile longer?

So I've been on a tolerance break for 2 weeks so far and its been the worst thing ever. I gave in once each week but hopefully it won't screw up my break. Just a little over a week to go.

Anyone catch the Pantha du Prince / The Sight Below tour a few weeks ago? Pantha was good but nothing mind blowing. The Sight Below really impressed since I was expecting his set to be mostly ambient, but he had a consistent beat for pretty much the entire set.

does anyone have any experience with the voigtlander ultron 40mm f/2 lens? (http://www.photozone.de/Reviews/263-voigtlander-ultron-40mm-f2-ii-nikon-mount-review--test-report) - i'm thinking about that or maybe a 50mm f/1.4

Or just getting the new d7000 whenever it actually gets announced

I actually just got the Ultron 40mm for my 550D recently but haven't had time to go out and use it besides the test shots I took right when I got it. Suffice to say the image quality is superb and the build quality feels very sturdy - seems like a metal build aside from the plastic caps. The real issues you need to consider are 1) whether you're ok with 40mm since it's not quite 50mm but not quite something much wider. And 2) whether you're ok with the lack of autofocus since its a strictly manual lense. Personally I didn't have a problem with those aspects and I find it valuable as a really compact lens.

Anyway hope that helps.

Anyway I've been making some video game x dance x super-melodic music for awhile. I'm probably going to go in a different direction now, I've done all that I can with this formula.

Whatchu guys think of the Teebs full-length? Definitely a contender against Cosmogramma, which is saying something since its Teebs first album and Flylo's third.

The Ben Allen production definitely helped Deerhunter on the new album. I know they were trying to be really washy and reverby before but it really wasn't working for me.

Nikon vs Canon is an age-old debate, there's no right answer and there never will be. People just side with whichever brand they own, which is fine. They're both great brands.

As for HD, its quickly becoming the new standard for upper level consumer cameras so its definitely something worth thinking about. Just know that you don't need to be a wannabe filmmaker to take advantage of the HD video. Sometimes its nice to grab some good looking video for a chance happening, or even to take your still shot one step further by allowing movement within the frame (as in the case of a waterfall or something like that).

Asian girls how to get

Haha I'll be at National Chung-hsing, any word on that place? Thanks for the infos bro.

Another question, I'll be staying in Taichung. Is there anything to do there? How far / convenient is a trip to Taipei?

New Washed Out is ace. Wouldn't mind if he continued along this path.

I really want to try the Nom Nom truck in LA (Vietnamese banh mi tacos), any been? I'm down with the whole fusion cuisine.

Pretty sure this has been addressed at some length in previous topics but anyway. If you're looking for hipster spots, stick with LA.

Cinespace - well-dressed hipsters

The Echo (and the whole Echo Park area) - dirty hipsters

The Smell - dirtier hipsters

Spaceland (and the whole Silverlake area) - ??? hipsters (never been there)

Hipster doesn't really exist in OC, the closest thing is the whole Obey/streetwear thing. Not worth going out of your way to see but there's The Crosby and Proof bars in downtown Santa Ana.

San Diego is ok. North Park / Hillcrest is the hipster area, lots of bars around there like Soda Bar. In the Gaslamp, Voyeur is pretty fun and draws a decent hipster crowd some nights. Again, not worth seeking out if you're already in LA.

Hope that helps somewhat. Too many usages of that word in one post.

Probably repeating whats been said.

WAYWT is either ppl wearing shit so crazy it only exists on the internet and you never actually see ppl dress like that on the streets, or ppl wearing shit so normal they look like every random dude on the street and you would never guess they post on a fashion forum.

Of course every now and then you see some gems where if you saw someone wearing that in the street you'd instantly be impressed.

But as someone who lurked four years ago it seems like its less gems or crazy shit these days, and more of the normal shit. Honestly maybe being 'fashionable' for the avg dude got big in the past few years and this forum has been flooded with new ppl with shitty looks, whereas in the past members of the forum have been more genuinely into fashion and thus had better looks.

Alpha Pup records has been killing it lately with albums by Nosaj, Free The Robots, Take, and soon to come Dibiase. I know ya'll are familiar with Nosaj but def check out the other guys. Super fresh.

Anyone rock YSL M7? I hear its more for older folk.

APC jeans have really gone up in price, I should've copped a pair awhile ago.

Crissy this has nothing to do with your outfit but I like your hair.

Woah tilt shift is cool, I've never even seen that before. Post-production aside, are there any good third party lenses that are sub-thousand?

WOO so excited I'm gonna jack off to the trailer everyday until it comes out.
