    The Junior Mixtape // 03

    More tunes! Yes! Success! Created by our Mixtape Director, Patrick Collins (http://anotherpatrickcollins NULL.com/), this is a Mixtape that you’ll be able to sashay around the room to when inspiration isn’t flowing down the creative tubes. There’s also a prize for the best move that we’ll judge via YouTube. Actually — we lie. There’s not. But you’re getting this tape for free. Hip hooray!

    Every month we’ll be profiling a young artist/designer/writer/etc via the mixtape cover.

    This month’s cover is by Tessa Chong — a bright young thing who is an amazingly rad illustrator, and art director. Currently based in Melbourne, she’s illustrating up some super cool campaigns (http://the-hunting-party NULL.com). We may be privy to top secret information that one day Tessa wants to write an award winning HBO series. But until then she’s available for a touch of moonlighting – coincidentally, much like this HBO character (http://en NULL.wikipedia NULL.org/wiki/Bored_to_Death). The suckiest part of this story is that Tessa’s website is in the works, which means you don’t get to see the extent of her talent, or call her for any moonlighting requests. Lame! Email us at wtf@lifeatthebottom.com (wtf null@null lifeatthebottom NULL.com) if you’re desperate.

    The Junior Mixtape // 02

    It’s back! Remember the last one? Sure you do! Everyone was talking about it. This time round our fantastic Mixtape Director, Patrick Collins (http://anotherpatrickcollins NULL.com/), has toiled for days at the fields of music blogs to bring you the perfect music to brain to. It’s also ideal audio to illustrate to, maybe even while ruminating on your life’s purpose, whatever you do, it’s roughly thirty minutes of quality tunes, tunes, tunes.

    Every month we’ll be profiling a young artist/designer/writer/etc via the mixtape cover.

    This month’s cover is by BenZen (http://benzen-illustration NULL.blogspot NULL.com/) — a young illustrator from Melbourne. When we first started Junior we had no idea who Ben was, but then he started coming to every event we had and we become best buds. His illustrations capture the innate whimsy and beauty of his highly-developed imagination, most of which you can see on his website. This however is not so remarkable given his genuine nature and sweet disposition — that you’re missing the hell out on cause you never come to Junior events, Slacky McSlack-slack.

    The Junior Mixtape // 01

    mixtape_header

    Dear troglodytes, philandering filibusters, friends, foes, and fusspots,

    We hear you. It is getting a tad boring around these parts. Interview after interview, whip after whip — why wouldn’t you scream in united togetherness, “When are you going to do something new!? Something bold!? Something we can use?! Something with pictures for chrissakes!?”

    Yes! By joe, we agree! It’s a fair statement. And one we’d like to duely acknowledge.

    So please, as a gesture of our commitment to you, our dearly beloved readership, take this new feature — The Junior Mixtape — and be on your way. Just be sure to use it wisely.

    The wise uses of the Junior Mixtape:

    a) Headphones, tea, and thirty minutes worth of brain-melting work to be done;

    b) A project to finish, procrastination sets in — turn up the volume, dance about the room, and summon the energy demon from your inner soul;

    c) A romantic partner to woo, a mixtape to be made;

    d) Indecision about what to do in life — load it onto ipod, take a thirty minute walk through the summer air, contemplate life.

    This month’s cover is by Belinda Chen (http://www NULL.belindachen NULL.com/) — A 22 year-old RMIT graduate from Melbourne currently living in Berlin.
