It's not exactly La Grande Jatte, but I love Plaza San Martin anyway. I'll never forget about all the great friends I have in Buenos Aires, the delicious ensalada de fruta , the tree-saving bidets (How did I go so long without them?), or those ridiculously cheap Pilates classes -- which are included in the 380 pesos (or roughly US$45 at the black-market exchange rate) I just paid for a one-month membership at my old gym.

Vivid is more than just a 10 day festival. It's an experience. The project was born five years ago and has attracted a crowd of more than many. Combining worldwide talent and influence from within the brackets of art, music and ideas, Vivid Sydney is testament to Sydney city's culture. It's is probably most greatly known for Vivid LIGHT - the festival's amazing light projections that cast over the enormity of Sydney city's iconic backdrop.

Last year, the soul legend Bobby Womack hooked up with producers Damon Albarn and Richard Russell to release The Bravest Man In The Universe , an album that made him sound like a weathered human husk. The album has a new extended edition, and one of its previously unreleased tracks is "It's Been A Long Night." The song now has a video that's made up entirely of footage of Womack working in the studio with a cast of characters that includes Albarn and TV On The Radio's Jaleel Bunton. Watch it below.

The visuals for "It's Been A Long Night" feature footage of the singer/songwriter in the studio, which you can watch above.

Although I seriously doubt that I'll ever be 100 percent down with the idea of Internet memes launching hit singles, and I can't begin to understand the appeal of the ones behind Baauer's "Harlem Shake," I have less against the song than a cynical pop fan like me probably should. I wonder, though, if now that Billboard is factoring YouTube views into its chart-compiling criteria (a move made just in time for "Harlem Shake" to debut at No. 1), can crazy fans with a lot of excess time on their hands and a decent Internet [...]]]> text/html 2013-03-03T18:55:00+01:00 http://elbo.ws/post/4811429/bobby-womack-whatever-happened-to-the-times/

Quite often brevitiy is in the soul of wit. The three lads from PDR have always been fans of simplicity and the minimalistic approach to grooving and guitar-driven new wave pop. That's probably one reason, why they renamed themselves from PUNK'D ROYAL to the shorter form.
