Here’s the new EP from our homie Cy Kosis.

One summer, 9 year old Caine Monroy built an arcade out of cardboard boxes and a lot of imagination. Now it’s
Caine’s Arcade. Watch the video. No need to stop smiling. Visit his arcade. Check out his website. Help him get to college.
From Nirvan Mullick , the filmmaker:
I just finished this short film about a 9-year-old boy’s elaborate DIY cardboard arcade. Caine made his arcade using boxes from his dad’s used auto parts store. He hadn’t had many customers, so we set up a fun flashmob to make his day, and filmed his response. I hope it brings a smile to your day. P.S. Caine’s Arcade is in East LA. You should visit it sometime – Caine is still building new additions!”

Well, folks, you can certainly say you knew him when. TheNewConfusion has been kicking it with Cy Kosis since he was JT30 and kicking it with Jt30 since he was a dude named Jamaal. Dear reader, you too have been part of this evolution: Cy Kosis used to write for this site under the name ESC (clicking through some of his old posts is sure to give you a good understanding of his progression as an artist). This past week Moomba+, one of the premiere blogs for the burgeoning genre of moombahton music, posted an interview and exclusive track with the kid. Our little boy is all grown up.

Sam Long, the gorgeous genius man behind the best album we never posted, has been hard at work for the past year writing an album of songs that celebrate and explore the Connecticut River. The album, From Source to Sea, is a beautiful testament to Sam’s vision, and will finally be played in its full form this weekend. Combining his deep interests in music, nature, environmental science, and sustainability, he will be presenting this project at 2 pm on Saturday afternoon at Wesleyan University’s Memorial Chapel, performing these songs with a small ensemble of musicians who have aptly named themselves The Honey and the Sting. Gemma Smith, Jessica Best, Mel Hsu, and Howe Pearson round out this talented crew, which you can watch in the video above singing the album’s first song while sitting together at Sam’s dinner table.
Sam originally intended to present this music in an outdoor concert running off of electricity created by friends pedaling bicycle-powered generators, intended to counteract any harmful impact the concert might have on the environment. Sadly and somewhat ironically, nature has thwarted that plan, and due to a terrible weather forecast for Saturday, The Honey and the Sting have decided to compensate by unplugging completely, and will be playing the music totally acoustic in the chapel. If you watch even five seconds of the teaser video, you’ll know beyond a shadow of a doubt that this group will be right at home presenting the warm, rich textures of Sam’s music in that organic and intimate setting. If you are anywhere near the Wesleyan campus tomorrow afternoon, you know where you need to be.
Sam Long, with The Honey and The Sting
“From Source to Sea: A River Album”

Further inspiring proof that the real world doesn’t stop people from dreaming: Daniel Hymanson, an aspiring film-maker, has a new project brewing, and he needs your help! The film, as planned, will tread the grey area between documentary and fiction, and will be based on the in-home installation work of Jackie Seiden, a Chicago-based artist and educator. Hymanson has started a kickstarter, and as of 11pm EST, he has 18 days and a little less than $2,000 to go. Check out the preview above, and consider helping him out!
