The rose that travelled to Berlin

I left Schloss Solitude today… I will be back in a couple of days. I had no luggage … I transported a special passenger with me… a red-pink rose. It arrived safe to Berlin… thanx to Nilu for the photo…

a first boost of inspiration… minimal… trashy and real!

Dear friends…
this summer sucks…
breaking up if so painfull it feels like dieing! The pain is not fading!
August is a “good-bye” kind of month and it always brings out the nostalgy that will follow up till mid -end october, leaving space to a cold winter…

these days I am not on holidays anywhere… all my friends stood me up. Nobody gives a fuck or is too busy surviving. So now the time has come for me to do my shit regardless of the others and stop saying always yes! SO here I am saying NO to useless phone calls, silly requests, miserable date offers and boring conversations.

I will have my holidays and they will be spent in Berlin, at home, with the phone off the hook and no e-mails and work. No blood suckers around me any more. Just lazy sublime nothing. A soft summer breeze, a video camera, a photo camera, inspiration and me.

Here is a first boost of inspiration… minimal… trashy and real! after the jump you can see the other four parts of the video as well. enjoy.

It’s party time :)

A little gambling is fun when you’re with me…

and baby if it’s love… it isn’t fun if it isn’t rough

Hello, here an “abstract” ***** poem. Modern… maybe not. Delicate… depending on the point of view and interesting… not really, exept for the fact that often people do and say things that mean more to them in the moment when they say them, than they ever really do or would to anybody else. If anybody has a similar need to share their own futile exercises in “puke the emotion out the wrong way”, then please feel free to post it/them here.

I’m back… it was about time :)

Hello everybody:) I am back after months of abstinancy )) WOW… a lot of things happened… and in the following days I will be writting about these and other events:

Gaga is coming!!!

Dear friends…

October 2008 is not that far away… The Fame will come out soooooooon.

Santogold

santogold is amazing. Her first album is a must buy! Its great from beginning to end. I can’t stop listening to it. The CD is on loop constantly! She’s from New York and recently she had her first and only German gig in Berlin, in tape club. Her voice is amazing. So far “you’ll find a way” has been my favorite track. I hope it will be her next single. So listen to Santogold and enjoooooy.

Love,

Ivan

Lights and music and… dance!

Dear friends, aren’t they great?! Australia… it was time we got some fine pop from you:) Enjoy Cut copy and their single: “lights and music”.

Love,

Ivan

This week’s wrap-up… who farted out there?!

Dear friends,

these past few days have been kind of strange… the world seems to be getting tired of certain stars and their behavior… let’s start with a dirty and futile note: The tabloids say Madonna co-wrote her brother’s book about her… (possible indeed) and her rep. Rosenberg answered that if she had co-written the book, it would have been written in a more “eloquent” manner. She also stated that Madonna doesn’t need publicity and that her upcoming tour tickets are selling great. Hmmm… don’t know what is cheaper…

It’s been a Courtney long time

Dear friends,

Here is the ultimate Courtney Love! I adore her attitude, her being so fucked up, wasted, consumed, strong, thin, blond, tall, with a big mouth, hungry, rockyness, voice, music, style… this is pretty much the only rock music I can listen to right now. Can’t wait for her new album to come out! It’s been a while and we are all waiting oh so long.

Love you Courtney,

Ivan
