Dalek vs. Blacklisted EP by Ami Kealoha
Like the difference between reading a blog and reading a magazine, listening to mp3s (even with a feature like Coverflow) doesn't compare to owning an actual artist-designed 12". The first in a series of picture discs produced by Free News Projects, this edition of 800 features Dalek's trademark psycho mice on a four-track EP by the Philadelphia hardcore band Blacklisted. With more Philly-based releases in November from Plastic Little and Andrew Jeffrey Wright, American Sneakers and Jim Houser, Icy Demons and Isaac Linn and in December from Boodles The Ghettoway and Matt Lienes and The Lilys and ESPO, now's the time to start a collection—and a good way to find out about new bands and artists. See more images and buy a copy ($23) here.

Schimmel/Colani Pegasus Grand Piano
A collaboration between Italian designer Luigi "Allergic to Straight Lines" Colani and German piano-makers Schimmel in the late 1990s, the Pegasus grand piano looks like something you'd see on a Star Trek set. Updates to the classic form include a slightly curved, ergonomic keyboard (eliminating any need for the player to move their body), an electrically-controlled hydraulic lid (to control projection) and a fully...

Absolut Machines: Absolut Quartet
Absolut Machines is Absolut's promotional initiative that explores where technology meets design in the form of two "machines." Last night we got to check out one, the Absolut Quartet, an interactive multi-instrumental robotic machine. It consists of a marimba played by rubber balls precisely shot from a robotic cannon, a series of spinning wineglasses dampened by robotic fingers and an array of percussive instruments....

I'll admit, I'm not the biggest fans of fitted hats myself, but I do love listening to the musical creations of Panda Bear. Being that Panda has...
