To promote this year’s Governor’s Ball music festival happening in New York on June 23-24, the organizers have created this new Remix that features every single artist on the lineup. It’s not a mashup, but I think I prefer it this way because it gives me time to appreciate every single artist and band individually. If you haven’t checked out the lineup for yourself yet, you should because this year they are highlighting Beck, Modest Mouse, Passion Pit, Chromeo, Explosions in the Sky, Phantogram, Cults, Santigold…- this lineup is stacked. You can check out the entire lineup here or just listen to the remix above and surprise yourself with it.

The transitions in this track are so smooth, it’s almost close to perfect (if it isn’t already.) The best part about this festival is that if you’re an attendee, you never have to run into the problem of choosing one set over another because the sets don’t overlap AT ALL. You can see everyone you came to see and get your entire money’s worth.

The City of New York Blog is way hip. I recently discovered through Doobybrain today that the entire look of the website completely changes based on whether it is day or night at the time. Also, the website just looks modern and awesome unlike the many other city blogs I have come across in the past.

I’m not huge on basketball, but even I know that there is buzz around New York Knicks’ player Jeremy Lin.

I give you…The Jeremy Lin Word Generator. It’s LINsane.

Even though I have never stepped foot into this city, there is something that I find extremely charming about the homes in New York City. On the verge of graduation, it seems a little unrealistic for a poor college student like me to pick up and move right away, but someday I hope I can call a place like this my home – at least for a little while.

This brownstone found in Brooklyn is catching some buzz because it is only 12ft wide. After taking a look at the pictures, the size of the width doesn’t even seem to look like as small as it really is. Much of the interior was designed and placed strategically in order to maximize space.

Here are some of my favorite shots of the interior below:

Every evening, Julio Diaz eats at his favorite diner after work commuting an hour on the subway. On this one particular night, he came face-face-face with a teenage boy who pulled a knife out and attempted to mug him. After Diaz complied, he then offered his jacket and proceeded to invite the boy to have dinner with him at the diner.

It’s not your average mugging story and it’s definitely not something I would advise to anyone if they were ever caught in a situation like this, but there’s something to be learned from this story I believe. To learn what happens after the two share a meal together, click here.
