Song Of The Day: WE Wednesday (12/19/12)
Song: Coffee & Snow
Artist: Blue Scholars
Album: N/A
It’s almost that time of year where you can kick back with a cup of coffee while it’s snowing outside. All you need is well…coffee and snow. The Scholar’s Coffee & Snow part 1 (yes, part 1) came out in 2008 after the snowstorm hit the NW and they decided to throw together a video. In the mean time, enjoy the rain before it gets too crazy. You can still download this here.

My new favorite.
It reminds me of Jet Set Radio’s sound track.
Or of just 90’s chill rap.
Whatever the case, I adore it and it makes me feel nostalgic and happy.

Anna Karina is distinct for making eye contact with you as you watch her in a film acting as a character who is aware that she is acting in a film. No big deal in movies nowadays, but in the pre-postmodern 1960s, it was some crazy shit. A powerful act made from a powerless situation. On one hand, she breaks down the biggest wall in her art form and demands you to acknowledge her. On the other hand, her every movement is dictated by a director and his demands. In Anna’s case, Jean-Luc Godard, whose films I gained an appreciation for through the young homie Matt Jay.
We met Matt when he was in high school in Portland and kept in touch while he was studying film in NYC. It was after he wrote about some Godard film on his blog that I saw Vivre Sa Vie, which was the film that replayed most in my head when I wrote Anna Karina. So it only made sense that Matt, the guy who hipped me to Anna Karina, be the one to direct the video for the song Anna Karina, inspired by Anna Karina herself, and shot masterfully in a single take at the Ace Hotel (New York).
