The joy of being naked

There's a certain freedom in being naked that you won't find anywhere else. I think it's a process of detachment. My best friend one day had a project for her photography class and she decided to do nudes. We were 5 people that only took off our clothes off to shower or to have sex. When the time came to take our clothes off everyone started looking at each other wondering who will be the first one. At the beginning it was weird. Then we didn't care. Then we had a great photo session. We felt so comfortable with each other and so free to do whatever we wanted. I don't know where those pictures are right now.. my mom probably found them in my house and thought I was crazy and threw them away.

Anyway.. all these amazing pictures are from this great photographer called Ryan Mcginley, an american photographer living in NY which started his photography career at the age of 25. I love the big scenarios and the careless / i don' give a fuck vibe he captures. Makes me want to take all my clothes off and run run run. And then 5 minutes later I would get arrested.

Loving this super redhead Leelo-esque hair color matched with the turquoise of the sky and the warmth of the sun. Just makes summer days feel a bit closer, especially since we only felt spring in NY for a week.

Un recopilado de musica peruana Rockanrolera // Peruvian Rock n' Roll compilation

≫◈≪

I've been obsessed with Peru for a long time. Maybe it's because I've met very nice people form there or because I'm in love with their food, their textiles and culture. Maybe it's everything. Since we're still celebrating the sun (I wish I could here in NY) I decided to bring you some cool obscure tracks from mid '50s - '70s Peru. Nothing much different from what was popular on english-speaking countries, but this time in spanish and sometimes with an african influence. Latin America wasn't and isn't all about cumbia, andean, bachata, la cucaracha and tropical music. It's much much more.

Peru had the best rock scene from the subcontinent between mid '60s and mid '70s becoming pioneers of Rock-n-Roll music in Latin America. Peruvians made beats and rock n' roll in the most brutal and tough possible way predicting this way the birth of punk. They played instrumental rock, and brought surf to their landscape. Psychedelic & garage where part of this peruvian splendor as well. Some of them preferred to keep their loyalty of the new sounds by singing in english while others gave it a new twist by brining spanish lyrics to life, creating a refreshing sound never heard before in Latin America. 

Hope you like it :)
