Dude (Sounds Like a Lady)

Two years ago I received an email from my good friend, Lisa, with "You'll like these" as its subject, some photos of our trip to Cebu and Davao, and a link to Rhye's SoundCloud page. I saved the pictures and clicked on the link. Soon I was digging the exquisite mix of musical instruments, the ethereal ambience on each track, and the sensual vocals and dreamlike harmonies. I was surprised however, to discover that the lead singer of the mysterious duo was actually a man. While some guys can do a high-pitched falsetto it could have your ears quite confused, Rhye's Mike Milosh possesses a natural alto, and his smooth voice has drawn a number of comparisons to Sade and Tracey Thorn.

The Adorable Sculptures of Yen Yen Lo

These images are from a series of wall sculptures created by Yen Yen Lo . Here you can see her intricately textured ceramic pieces, looking downright adorable. Yen Yen Lo's eye for the unique and whimsical is delightful. Apparently they are not intended for kids under 16. Fifteen-year-olds cannot be trusted with fragile stuff. Get them a Funko Pop instead.
