n1156860120_30056067_542.jpgWe can thank Diplo and Switch for boldly auto tuning Andy Milonakis toasting, but there’s a lot more to Major Lazer than a comedy gimmick. The tracks heard so far are killer, notably the collaboration with Santogold. This summer their tweaked out brand of dancefloor crack is on the road and there are free and discounted tickets up for grabs (I know the Philadelphia show at Electric Factory is free). Hit ‘tour dates’ on the Bacardi Live website and pick your city. Depending on which show you catch, you might see A-Trak as well.

screen_shot_1.jpgscreen_shot_2.jpgWonder what color the desert of Petra is, or that delicious Uni sushi you just had for lunch? Sherwin-Williams just launched ColorSnap, an iPhone application that allows you to snap a photo and get the matching Sherwin-Williams paint color from more than 1,500 in their database. Nice for the designers tool kit. Click here to download from iTunes.   

Update: Speaking of color, check out XOLOR for a color seizure.

My pal Jeff Staple just announced the launch of reed pages, his magazine venture. I’m always impressed with him and his ability to spread his mission and ideas across all mediums from consulting to apparel, digital, and now back to the basics of awesome print and paper (this looks so good, I’d categorize it as a book). And anytime he launches something new, I think about a good way I can bring it to my own readers.

So, to celebrate the inaugural Issue 1, we’re going to giveaway a year subscription. It’s pretty simple.

This quote appears in the premier issue of Reed Pages. Fill in the blanks below and you win.

“New _____________ is okay but why does it have to be so ugly? The ___________ and ___________ should have to answer to an aesthetic community board that won’t let them build awful ___________.”

Comments will be held for moderation, and we’ll approve and pick the winners Friday! Good luck!
