Mount Dreams has just debut their new album, which is self-titled.  It's an 8 tracked album that shines in brilliant ambient pop electronic soundscapes. This genre keeps on continuing to transform into beautiful shapes and sounds and just shows another great example of continuous change is the airily mind-numbing track “Home” by Mount Dreams.  Features the outstanding and reassuring vocals of Anatomy, “Home” is a song that evokes a feeling of brightness among rough waters.

Check out the whole album below and also support the talent by purchasing the album on iTunes.

Looking to take some professional looking night sky pictures, then this camera is for you. The Tiny1 Astronomy Camera (TBA) pairs a sensor that's extremely good in low-light with advanced image processing to create striking images of stars, whole constellations, and planets in far less time than a traditional DSLR. It can also take time-lapse videos in 2.5K resolution, and if you're not sure what to shoot, it can show you up-to-date star charts right in live preview mode. The Tiny1 is currently in development and will be available for crowdfunding at the end of the year.

Who doesn't like butterflies and insects made out of matchsticks? These creations were created by British artist Kyle Bean. It makes you wonder how long it took him on each piece and how many matchsticks were used for each one.  You can check out more of Kyle's work on his site.

These images caught my attention today and are definitely worth checking out. The Project Apollo Archive is a collection of photos on Flickr, which are amazing and inspiring to go through - from Apollo 7 to 17.  So start clicking through and find your space adventure. Below are few of my favorite so far.

The Bose SoundTouch 10 Speaker ($200.00) packs amazing sound and has a well-rounded feature set put into a compact package. Standing less than 8.5 inches tall, it uses a new 2.5 inch Unidome speaker that, paired with the company's digital signal processing, produces surprisingly full sound. It also has Bluetooth and Wi-Fi built-in, which gives you instant access to streaming services like Google Music, 8tracks and more and lets the speaker hook up with other SoundTouch units in your house wirelessly giving you the ability to build a whole-house system that includes home theater systems, soundbars, standalone units, and even outdoor speakers. Comes in two colors: black and white and you get free shipping.

MenEssentials for that smooth clean shave while doing it in style. You will look great and feel awesome! MenEssentials provides a huge selection of razors, creams, shaving kits and facial products and more to meet any guys standards.

They were kind enough to send me two products to try. They sent the Merkur MK-23001 double edge safety razor and LEA Classic Shaving Cream. Let me tell you how this has changed my thought process on shaving. This takes shaving to a next level with the use of a double edge blade, which is actually cheaper than the standard razors. The Shaving Cream alone has helped smooth out my skin and leaving it looking and feeling soft compared to other shaving creams that I have tried. I don't think I could go back to the store bought razors and shaving cream after using these two products. Thanks MenEssentials!

So check out MenEssentials and explore the different brands to match your shaving/face style and start buying away. Shipping is free for any orders over $50 and for first time buyers here is a promo code for 10% off your first order "ME10PERCENT".
