Josh Beech the Music Man

I have a feeling this “fangirling” posts are gonna go one after the other. This time, it’s the super hot Josh Beech. I’ve always had this soft spot for male models with tattoos. Usually the male models I see are all skinny, clean and boring. Ash Stymest, Josh Beech and Cole Mohr were probably the innovators of tattoo clad/post-modern models. Needless to say, I am a big fan of all three. Photo by Luke Nugent If it’s not obvious yet, my favorite is Josh Beech and this usually means hours of looking him up online (and documenting it). Finding the spreads he’s been part of, endorsements, runways he’s walked for… which lead to discovering that not only he is a model, but also a music man. His preference of music usually leans to alternative and rock of the 90s, which kind of reflects his style of music too. This is a video I found about a year ago and I couldn’t help but notice how his singing style sort of resembles Brandon Boyd of Incubus …

GD&TOP Knocks Diplo Out Dumbfoundead

I’ve been a follower of Diplo’s remixes (given that I know and love the song) ever since I listened to his remix of Britney’s Circus about 2 years ago. I remember listening to that track so many times I think I preferred it over the original. Since then I’ve been on the lookout for his remixes, especially when he did Flashing Lights in Kanye’s Sky High remix album, and of course, the DFX remix of M.I.A’s Paper Planes in the Slumdog soundtrack, which added so much flavor to the already awesome song. Fast forward about a year or two, I started getting into k-pop (much to my own surprise) and have been an avid enthusiast for one year now. GD & TOP, 2 of heavyweight group Big Bang‘s rappers released a collab rap album late last year and gave it a new flavor to the apparently vapid manufactured k-pop sound by describing their music as “ghetto electro” which, you guessed it, rhymes done in electro music. I loved almost all of the songs from the …

Music I’ve Been Enjoying

I love music so much but I rarely ever blog about it enough. Even though I’ve always been a rock and alternative girl at heart, my listening preference is never limited to a genre, nor I bash the ones I don’t like. For example I may not understand Tokio Hotel, but Tokio Hotel can do whatever they want. Anyway, now’s the time I can finally talk about the tunes I’ve been enjoying lately. Katy Perry – Teenage Dream It’s sad to say that pop wasn’t as great as when I was still a little girl. Maybe because I’m more open to other sorts of music now, plus Justin Bieber really doesn’t interest me. That being said, this track by Katy Perry is pure pop goodness. The lyrics, and the flow, it takes you back to memories and makes you feel like you’re in love again. I love it because despite the heavy falsetto in the verses, the chorus is super catchy. Great for a karaoke night with your girlfriends. Maroon 5 – Give A Little …
