Art Food Music Weekly revue: 2012 week #21 (May 19 to 25)

Exhibition: - QP solo exhibition at The Last Gallery. Mainly older works made since 2008. This exhibition is a bit "funeral"-themed, making the way for more new fresh stuff. This is on until Sunday May 27.

Food: - Lunch at African restaurant Los Barbados in Shibuya. Very small restaurant but really great food at a cheap price, and good atmosphere with African music too. :) Will definitely go back!
- Coffee at Tenement in Ebisu. It was my first time to go to the 2nd floor where can be found wall paintings by HITOTZUKI (KAMI+SASU).
- Bagels from Maruichi in Shirokane. Yum!

Party: - Last Sunday, went to event "Factory Girl" at Mercedes Benz Connection presented by fashion brand Snidel and magazine Nero. Got to see Harvard and Annie Monroe DJing, and an acoustic show by French band Manceau (post-Tahiti 80?). The event's decoration and VJing was Andy Warhol-themed. Unfortunately got there too late for the food and Sunday Bake Shop's sweets...!

New music: - esu-efu (pronounced S.F.) is the new unit of Nomoto Karia with producer Captain Mirai (from the Vocaloid scene). Their first mini-album is great! I've had it a lot on repeat this week, and currently my favorite is "Propeller Song".
- Yes, I got Kyary Pamyu Pamyu's 1st album, "Pamyu Pamyu Revolution". :) It's all good Yasutaka recipe, catchy and fun! When listening to the album on my way to work, "girigiri Safe" ("just in time") comes up almost exactly when I get to destination.
- I went to Shibuya hardcore-only shop Guhroovy to get Bubble-B feat. Enjo-G's 1st album (after 10 years!). Of course I knew most of the songs already since it's mainly a complete collection of the funny videos up on YouTube. Still several have been reworked, and a few remixes and new songs added. Nice price too!
