Awesome summer muxtape by Kriesse. Nice blend of harsh dance tunes and some pop for good measure. Love it! Makes me want to do a new one myself. Writing Lorem Ipsum on our Hands is collecting dust.
Plus: I’d love to see custom artworks as an additional Muxtape feature. I just love to throw together a quick sleeve design.

Get Weird Turn Pro writes: “So Cansei de Ser Sexy are minus one member and have upped sticks and moved to London. Their new album ‘Donkey’ is on the horizon and on the evidence of ’Left Behind’ it should be a goodie. There’s a synthy Midnight Juggernauts remix of this track floating around which is good, but the original rocks nicely and is officially out July 14th.”
And they posted the track, too. I’m not sure what to expect from CSS after their hit album. Need to hear the new tunes in some club to judge.

Decent design studio from Glasgow. Wonderful and clean work.

13 typefaces every graphic designer needs
I’d add one good slab serif (i.e. one of my all-time favourites, Lubalin Graph) to that list. Other than that I love the selection – big yay for Gotham and Bodoni.
