DAILY FIX: Cubic Zirconia, ‘Josephine’

by | Mar 2, 2010 | MUSIC

Cubic Zirconia brings a mixed bag of ’80s eccentricity with it. Prince, Information Society, Lisa Lisa & Cult Jam are all hinted at and placed in a blender to bring a sound familiar but harder hitting and club banging. The word ‘sonic bootay noise’ comes to mind. Might be too much coffee, not enough sleep.

Anyway, I bring you late Friday night music but on a Tuesday. Hope you don’t freak out lovin’ this at the office and your boss walks by.

I created Richmond, Virginia’s culture publication RVA Magazine and brought the first Richmond Mural Project to town. Designed the first brand for the Richmond’s First Fridays Artwalk and promoted the citywide “RVA” brand before the city adopted it as the official moniker. I threw a bunch of parties. Printed a lot of magazines. Met so many fantastic people in the process. Professional work: www.majormajor.me
