Damn, really missed out on this one. This is probably one of the best mixtapes of last year. Apparat is a producer from Berlin, that last year launched his Groove Podcast. A nice compilation of atmospheric tunes, including tracks by Zomby, Carl Craig and Kode9. Once you fancy his sound, you might consider listening to his lastest album The Devil’s Walk. In a download, or stream.

Graphic Design Studio Vruchtvlees saw the smoke signals, received the morse codes, decoded the symbolism and understood the question for a brand new mixtape. For the ninth edition in the Vruchtvlees Mixtape series, they asked the Amsterdam based DJ and producer FS Green to take his current favorite tracks and record a flaming new mixtape. Play this during your new years eve. In a download, or stream.

What a great and playful idea. Meet Small Demons . Suppose someone took every meaningful detail from all the books you love. This creates a Storyverse. A place where details touch, overlap and lead you further. To new music to listen to. New movies to watch.
“Suddenly you’ve got a whole world of seemingly random people, places and things, all gathered in one place”
Together they create something vast, wonderful and entirely new. Just choose a book. See where it takes you. Via @chriswittkampf.

There’s definitely a buzz in my social network around Path 2, a smart journal that helps you share life with the ones you love. The design looks great and the personal feel is pretty refreshing. Is 2012 the year of the true friends network? Ditch Facebook, and get the Path 2 app on your phone.
