We are pleased to bring you the exclusive premier of Facts' latest video for "Nerves", the first single off of the new EP, The Hunch. The video was directed by Ian Macdonald, and captures the turmoil of a mind riddled with anxiety. The viewer is taken on a surreal journey through an afflicted man’s thoughts, memories and imagination.

Our besties over at NXNE just dropped their full line-up for their festival. Not only are we excited about the acts that they are bringing in, we love this clever little video they did to make the announcement. We will also be making some announcements soon on a contest that will take you and a friend to NXNE on us. Stay tuned for that, but in the meantime have a watch and enjoy.

Eric Wareheim took an old porn VHS that one of the older kids hid in the woods, shoved it into Max Renn from Videodrome's chest vagina alongside the living-breathing nightmare tape and scored it to Tobacco's "Streaker". The results are horrifying, disgusting, and full of dark corners. But let's be honest, who doesn't want to explore a dark corner? I'm calling 1-844-TOBAXXO for a tour.

What’s Wolf Circus you ask? Started by Fiona Morrison while still in university in 2011, Wolf Circus is a collection of drool-at-the-mouth jewellery pieces that we want to get our hands/necks/ears/wrists on, really rather badly. Started up after Morrison noticed the attention and conversation a single piece of jewellery could garner, she launched a bold, bright and raw collection, which does just that with eye-catching designs, quality stones and raw diamonds.

Any new jungle in, guy? It’s tough to think of drum & bass and its more syncopated counterpart as being made with brass instruments and guitars, and it’s even more difficult to think of a way to remix a song from a band whose dynamic is definitely unique. Somehow, UnMap has, delivering a future-funk R&B equivalent of Shapeshifter’s single “Shadow Boxer” from their latest album, Delta.

We all know vintage cycling racing has its own niche market, which has been on the rise recently—think Rouleur magazine and Musette Caffe in Vancouver (yes, we just noticed the distinctly European feel)—and we may have just stumbled across our favourite within this said niche. Austrian artist Andreas Scheiger’s “Upcycle Fetish” project combines vintage racing and a love of upcycling scrap bike parts, with incredible and dynamic pieces of utility art.

You are walking down the street minding your own business and suddenly, two people come up to you and ask you questions like, “How many subway lines are there in Montreal?” or “At what time do bars close in Montreal?” Would you know the answers? A handful of lucky people actually did! As their reward, they were given one hour to get ready and jump on an Air Canada flight for an all-expenses-paid trip to the fabulous city, courtesy of Tourisme Montreal.

We’re big on bags this month, and we stumbled across this start up, Pappeal Tyvek—derived from a unique idea to use paper—which makes beautiful, simple and durable bags. Available in duffel, messenger and backpack versions, they are the result of a collaboration between three people with a desire to create something unusual and exclusive. And that’s exactly what they did.

Prior to this album, Todd Terje released Spiral, a two-track EP whose songs were a little too ambitious, and while being well produced, I couldn’t sit myself down to enjoy it as much as his previous work. The news of a debut album had me a little weary of what he could offer but I was delighted to hear my reservations be crushed by the sonic force of Terje.
