When a sunshine fades away....





If you've ever met Jayne Helliwell you know that she was a shining spread of light.

We've worked with her on a few projects and its been so easy, smooth, always so lovely to spend time next to her.

She is now creating from another place.

Some people say that some of the most beautiful souls are called on to go on bigger missions.

Life is really fragile. We are so lucky to be able to see, hear, feel and have each other to share it.

Jayne Helliwell, Thank you for being so special and making such beautiful work.

Rest in Peace with the angels.

Man Recordings now proudly releases Isa GTs debut “Pa´Chikirri” EP.

*GIRLCORE* SPLASH! TONIGHT



It's nearly the end of the month and that can only mean one thing. Apart from payday.

GIRLCORE obvs!

While some of the Girlcore contingent are sunning it in Miami (bitches) we're having our own seaside party. This month's theme is underwater: think mermaid babes, Daryl Hannah (then not now), shell bras, deep sea divers, tropical fish, buried treasure, Octopussy...

Isa and Loki are far away so we have two very special guests for you:

JOYCE MUNIZ
http://www.myspace.com/joycemuniz

Joyce Muniz is a Vienna-based, Brazilian DJ, vocalist, club promoter and producer and one of the busiest female electronic-artists currently in Central Europe, with a jam-packed schedule of international gigs and a recent release on Daniel Haaksman’s Man Recordings label. On this Kubo 12” Remix of Mela & And You Joyce’s chanting vocals and Vienna’s Bassmonster Stereotyp’s dark and rough beats create a captivating floor-filler. Joyce’s percussion-based DJ sets provide a diverse sound, a musical journey through Afro beats, Tropical Tech, Electro and House. Major.

CAPTAIN MAGIC (PEANUT BUTTER JELLY TIME)
http://www.myspace.com/itspbjtparty

One of the true superheroes of club promotion in London, Captain Magic aka zesty Zara has been hosting the busiest and messiest of warehouse parties for a little while now, drafting in the likes of Greco-Roman, Niyi, Micachu and loads more. When Zara's not running around promoting and trying to turn London into her Hip House Playground you can catch her booty bouncing behind the decks to her Baille/B-more/Hip Hop Beats. Ghetto fabulous bebz!

and of course your faithful GIRLCORE resident mermaids (sea monsters):

HOW TO MASTER DOUBLE EXPOSURE

These pictures are from 1994, when I was 15 -yes, im that old, but I got to see Nirvana live and basically, you are all copying my style now - I just have to go to my mom s and get my old clothes and YES, I still fit in them-.
I accidentally overexposed my dad's film. Here you have the results----> im the boy in red t shirt btw, and the cool guy is my dad, Lic. Norberto P. Corsaro
