If you look and sound as fantastic as Janelle Monae, then feel free to wear spectators with your black tie ensemble.

So I checked the world famous contact@putthison.com mailbox, and what did I see?  An email from an old acquaintance, Wale Oyejide.  Wale was a guest on my old music radio show, The New Sound of Soul, six or seven years ago when he was recording instrumental hip-hop as “Science Fiction.”  He also cut an excellent Afrobeat-influenced album under his birth name (he’s Nigerian-American, if I recall correctly).

Turns out one thing he’s up to these days is style blogging, and I really enjoyed checking out his blog Less.Gentle.Men.of.Meager.Means, aka LessGentleMen.  Recommended!

Junk Culture “West Coast” as featured in Put This On, Episode 1 Just a simple note of gratitude for friend of the show Deepak Mantena and his solo venture Junk Culture, whose title track “West Coast” we made liberal use of in our Q & Answer segment. The record just came out on Illegal Art, available here for pay-as-you-wish. It’s a great great track from an extremely great record. Read a great review and take a great listen here on allmusic.

(via nerdboyfriend) It doesn’t take much to get me excited about a Cowichan sweater.  Brian Eno and his kitty just did it.
