This exhibition is the first international survey of the exceptional career of David Bowie, one of the most pioneering and influential artists of our time. More than 300 objects from the David Bowie archive, including handwritten lyrics, original costumes, photography, designs, albums and rare material from the past 50 years, are brought together for the first time. It demonstrates how Bowie's work is influenced by and has influenced various currents in art, design, theater and contemporary culture. The focus is on creativity, innovation and the collaboration with many designers in the areas of sound, fashion, design, theater and film.
The exhibition started in 2013 in the Victoria and Albert Museum in London and was seen there for nearly six months. More than 300,000 people, including many international stars such as Debbie Harry, Dame Vivienne Westwood, Robert Redford, Anna Wintour and Kate Moss, bought a ticket.

WOLF ALICE
Op het debuutalbum ‘My Love Is Cool’ heeft de Britse indiepop-band Wolf Alice de perfecte balans weten te vinden tussen ruig gitaargeweld en intelligente, minimaal ingevulde passages. Volgens NME "Easily the debut of the decade so far!".
The Pacers draw their influences from the sixties Psych/Garage scene, mixing it up with their own unique ideas to create unforgettable and energetic live performances in the same vein as The Stooges and The Stones, with a healthy dose of freakout psychedelia.
The band formed in the late summer of 2013 when Alexander Friedl and guitarist Harry Stam met under what they describe as "mysterious circumstances". With a shared interest in all things 60's and a desire to escape the monotony of everyday life, they duo picked up their guitars and began writing songs.
A former bandmate of Harry, bass player Jay Creswell, was next to join The Pacers, closely followed by drummer Jamie Yuan. With the line up complete, the band set about making a name for themselves on the underground music scene, playing a string of venues primarily in north and east London which have earned them a loyal and ever increasing fanbase. 'Losing Touch' is their debut single.
The Band:
Alex Friedl - Vocals, Guitar
Harry Stam - Lead Guitar
Jay Creswell - Bass
Jamie Yuan - Drums
After teasing the release of their highly anticipated sophomore album for Captured Tracks earlier this year, DIIV is back today to share "Dopamine," the 4th song from Is The Is Are. The track is available to stream above via Souncloud.
Its release comes as the band kicks off their fall touring, which will see them play a run of shows with RIDE starting this week before heading out on their headlining North American tour with support from No Joy and Sunflower Bean.
Check out "Dopamine" streaming above and see below for track art and all upcoming DIIV tour dates.
Filmed by Mia Kirby and Sierra Swan, the teaser video features “never”, “boom boom” and “he fresh”.
Co-produced by jennylee and Norm Block, the 10 songs on right on! were all written by jennylee, and recorded earlier this spring at Happy Ending Studios in Silverlake, CA.
Joining Jenny on the album are: Norm Block (Plexi, Mark Lanegan), Dan Elkan (Them Hills, Broken Bells) and Warpaint’s Stella Mozgawa. Additional players include Tony Bevilacqua, Kris Byerly, Katie Burden, Kirk Hellie, Jonathan Hishcke and Cedric LeMoyne.
While right on! retains some of Jenny’s signature Warpaint groove, she incorporates New Wave and Goth elements into her solo work. Her breathy voice and her meticulous bass playing create a new aura that is hazy and dreamy, and essentially all jennylee.
jennylee and her band will be giving fans an early preview of the album in New York at Baby’s All Right on November 4th.
