Drew Struzan has created some of the most iconic artwork for movie posters ever. His work is so unique and original that you can almost immediately identify his work at first glance. It amazes me the photo realism but still creative look that he is able to achieve. Below are just some of my favorites…

Soon to be release Strange Mercy is St. Vincent’s third studio LP. So far it sounds amazing… I can’t wait for it to come out. Totally dig the pre-released tune “Surgeon”… pretty exciting when the song opens up around 1:00, SO good.

Listen to Surgeon by St. Vincent

Hadn’t seen anything new from Summer Camp and was pleasantly surprised to find a newly released tune from them while browsing Gorilla vs. Bear. I previously posted one of Summer Camp’s music videos that I think is one of my favorite music videos EVER.

Take a listen to “Better Off Without You”…

When I am stressed or have a pile of work to do I need music that will help put me at ease. I know some people need rock and faster music to help push through the work, I on the other hand am completely different. I want to listen to music that to most people would put them to sleep.

Max Richter’s The Blue Notebooks is one of those albums. I can’t tell you how productive I’ve been while listening to this album over and over and over again. It’s so easy going, it’s almost like having a movie playing in the background while I work without the distraction of the visuals.

Here is one of my favorite songs that was actually featured in the Stranger Than Fiction film but is just one of many highlights on the orchestral and beautiful The Blue Notebooks.

So I’m kind of a Star Wars nerd and recently have been listening to the soundtracks of original movies by John Williams. SO good. Anyway in light of that I made a couple Star Wars iPhone 4 wallpapers that I’ve been using and thought I’d share them with you, enjoy.
