ear to the ground | turntable kitchen’s pairings box

turntable kitchen is an innovative site created by a san francisco couple that fuses well-curated music with mouth watering recipes. it’s the ultimate combination for foodie-music heads. (don’t worry, it’s nothing as obvious as vampire weekend paired with blood orange vinaigrette.)  what i’m really loving is their pairings box subscription. it comes with a limited edition vinyl single, a digital mixtape, premium dried recipe ingredients, a collection of recipes and a few other surprises, all for $25 dollars a month.  brilliant! this is my new go-to birthday gift for all the music heads in my life—check out the details here, it drops in march. now if someone could just invent a site that pairs jewelry with music…

not buying it sternberg. (literally or figuratively.)

-tweet by alain de botton [swiss writer, television presenter and entrepreneur]

he has a rather thought-provoking twitter feed.
(oxymoron? possibly)
