It's funny to think that this is over a decade old now.

Monsters of Folk- Say Please

Here's the song from the scene in its entirety

Love | The Red Telephone

Between the idea and the reality.
Between the motion and the act.
Falls the shadow.
- T.S. Eliot

Are you sitting comfortably?  Now let's begin.  Or more so, close out 2009.  It's seems that everyone is really eager to throw out 2009 with the bath water.  I personally beg to differ.  A common malady of our current web 2.0 generation is ridiculously short memory spans, and if some of us were to actually consider the entirety of '09 we'd find something to cheer about.  So here's my thanks to 09.  The year that connected all of us much closer than we are even yet to realize; giving way to the rise of social media, unreal NYC all night dance parties, the disco ball at Santos party House, pastel colored sunglasses, the most ridiculous Bonnaroo ever, Pretty Lights, Phish coming back, the most amazing concert i've ever been to with The Roots and Antibalas @ the Red Bull Soundclash, rocking out underneath the McGrath Bridge, free Chester French and Wale concert in Harvard Square, Jesse Dee, The Bodega Girls, Show Dem Camp, Blackjoy, Shepard Fairey at the ICA, dance parties at the ICA... i could keep going but it'd take too long.  So if you're of the opinion that this year wasn't that great, you probably weren't trying hard enough. 





As we proceed into the new year, the Highlife crew would like to thank you all for your support.  This enterprise has been a leap of faith from the beginning, and it wouldn't be possible without all of you out there.  The scary thing about leaps of faith is that you don't how or if you'll land.  But you have to jump anyway.  That said, our resolution for 2010 is to make the impossible possible.  Keep watching this space.

Perspective.  An artist without perspective is like a writer without content.  The more of it one has the fuller understanding they have of any subject, which in turn allows them to present truth as it is, unadulterated.  Whether it be art, humanity, philosophy, whatever.  This jet-setting London based artist is blessed as such, and it's evident in the scope of his work.  Like he says, "my friend, clear your mind of can't".  If the sum of our lives are in our experiences, his tally is soaring.  Pay close attention to MrMadeofCodes. In other words Tenne Fatona.

Man versus the Machine.  Machine versus man.  Where does one end and the other begin.  Who serves what, what serves whom.  Atrophy and Rebirth. Light and Dark.  Finding beauty where the masses don't is where this artist operates.  This is the art of Andre Hester.
