Monster Children x Chocolate Deck
Posted By Ben - 08.05.2013

Very rarely is it acceptable to buy a skate deck with the intention of never, ever, ever setting it up. This is one of those occasions where it’d be okay. There are 130 of these Evan Hecox-designed, Ten-years-of-Monster-Children Chocolate boards, and if you want one you can score one by simply being faster than everyone else who is reading these words right now.

Boards of Canada - Tomorrow's Harvest

Boards of Canada - Tomorrow's Harvest
Posted By Ben - 29.04.2013

Since Record Store Day a bunch of LP's have been surfacing from Boards of Canada. All the records featured the same short atmospheric track, but they all had a different code read out at the end.

On the 27th of April, Cartoon Network aired this commercial, and earlier today the Boards of Canada official site had been changed to redirect to here. Once entering this code: 699742628315717228936557813386519225, you're shown this video and sent to the pre-order of the band's new album, the first new material since 2005. A damn good way to get your fans thinking. 

Pre order Tomorrow's Harvest here.
