HENRY LANCASTER III PORTFOLIO

Amsterdam, NL: October 18-23rd

hmlancas — Mon, 05 Dec 2011 00:00:18 +0000

Amsterdam is Europe’s Vegas. With just about as many redeeming qualities. I did manage to snap a few shots at the Occupy Amsterdam encampment. It was predictably low-key.

Fortunately Amsterdam Dance Event afforded me a week of parties. Just look at these line-ups.

Top 10 Records you (probably) haven’t heard of 2011

Disclaimer: I didn’t listen to the Carter IV, even once. Or the Bon Iver record. These are just recommendations.

Hopefully this list will fill in some of the gaps between this year’s numerous blockbuster releases. Three of the list (TheWeeknd-Thursday, Elzhi-Elmatic and Childish Gambino-Fall EP) are available as legal, free downloads for you to enjoy right now. Clicking the album art on any post will take you to a full review (from a site other than Pitchfork) where available.

Berlin, Germany: October 11-17th

hmlancas — Tue, 22 Nov 2011 15:06:34 +0000

Berlin is a beautiful modern city with legendary museums, familar looking hipsters and cheap food. Not to mention lots of graffiti. A paradise, of sorts. If only I spoke the language.

Lund, Sweden: October 5th-10th

hmlancas — Thu, 10 Nov 2011 16:44:03 +0000

Visited my friend James in Lund, a college town in the south of Sweden, as well as the costal areas around Malmo.

Clicking the green icon in the upper left, and selectiong ‘More about this synth’ will allow you to view the panorama larger.

Day trip to Christiania, an old-fashioned hippie enclave within modern Copenhagen.

New York: Sept.16-19th

hmlancas — Tue, 27 Sep 2011 14:28:20 +0000

Thought I would make New York the last of my domestic travels. I spent far more time in Brooklyn this time around than on any of my previous visits. Four days was long enough to crash in two different neighborhoods, go to two parties and make an appearance in a music video.
