I only knew Dick Bruna as the guy who drew Miffy. I didn’t realise how sad and pathetic that was until I recently uncovered a lot of his work that didn’t involve Nijntje. His work is minimal, clever and simply beautiful — exactly the things that make Dutch design so special.

Another beautiful, eccentric and lovingly crafted video for Of Montreal. Even if you are not a fan of their music, you gotta love Of Montreal for their videos at least.

Nick Franglen and Fred Deakin (aka Lemon Jelly) released their full debut album, LemonJelly.ky in 2001. It was both a commercial and critical success, and if you listened to the album, you’d know why. With the warm, organic beats and weird, psychedelic synths, this album will just make you happy. Very happy and quite bouncy all day long; go give it a listen it if you haven’t yet!

Hello
Most folks who visit random notes
seem to hang around for about
9.416 minutes on average.
