I fell in love with these BeoPlay H2 by Bang & Olufsen when I saw them online.

The packaging was beautiful. There were a bunch of cute directions like “Pull me” “Lift Up” etc.

The design of these headphones are so simple and elegant.

I ordered mine in Shaded Rosa. The headphones are decorated with pink cloth accents and come with a pink cord.

The ear pads are made out of a luxurious feeling lamb skin.

They are also decorated with giant L and R so I’ll never forget which side is which.

The headphones adapt to the size of your head as you wear them. I was a bit afraid that my head would be too big (a comment that often comes up in reviews) but I have a gigantic head and don’t feel uncomfortable at all! There’s also an inline remote and volume control that work great on my iPhone and my MacBook Air.

I’m super impressed by the quality of these earphones. The sound is warm and I can hear a lot of detail in the trebles which I find is something that is usually lacking in more bass heavy stuff on the market.

Somehow started from no shows, to going to two shows tonight. Life happens unexpectedly. I’m super excited for PUP’s release show, so much that I somehow ended up with two records.

See you on the other side!

I’m still super excited about how well our show at Canadian Music Week went! A lot of friends and Ride the Tempo fans came out to support and we had a decently packed house on a Wednesday night. Here are some of my favourite photos:

Vinyl Me Please- April 2016 Edition

This month’s Vinyl Me Please pressing celebrates the 20th anniversary of The Fugees’ The Score. It is printed on beautiful orange and black vinyl and includes a bonus gold 7″ with tracks that were never on vinyl. They used all the original masters which means there’s some crackling from the original recordings. There’s also a poster and art by Kenyatta A.C. Hinkle.

There were a few extras thrown in like a mysterious 7″ with no description, that was later revealed to be a new Tourist song. I think it’s awesome and kind of romantic to tease new tracks this way. I had no idea what to expect when I put it on the player. Also added was a $35 gift certificated to Hello Fresh, which I sadly cannot use because they haven’t launched in Canada yet.

DSCF9018 This month was also the first time I ordered from Vinyl Me Please’s exclusive member store. They did a limited run of Suun’s upcoming Hold/Still (it isn’t released until tomorrow) in white.

I’m slowly outgrowing my little bachelor apartment as vinyl starts to take up more and more space.

Mmmbop Turns 20

March 23, 2016Entertainment, MusicLeave a Comment

Omg! Can you believe Hanson’s Mmmbop turned 20 today? I remember as an 8 year old I would sit religiously in front of the TV on Friday’s to watch the music video on Hitlist. 20 years later the band is still a money-making business. They even have their own line of beer. I can’t believe it’s been 20 years.

We must all be getting old

Vinyl Me Please- March 2016 Edition

March’s Vinyl Me Please pressing is my favourite so far. It’s an exclusive white vinyl edition of Lapsley’s Long Way Home, which is one of my favourite non-Canadian albums this year. Plus she’s only 19! It also comes with an art print, and a special poster with a note from the artists.

Super excited to have this as part of my collection. I would’ve picked up this one eventually in store but I always love having exclusive colour editions.
