So I noticed I haven’t made a blog post on here for over a month… to be honest I am not that phased. I have been loving Tumblr! You can check out my Tumblr here – http://tyronbache.tumblr.com/. Lately I have been posting a lovely mix of quotes, images and videos.

Anyway I would like to formally introduce you to Fiya Attire, my latest side project.

I have the lovely pleasure of co-founding this clothing label with a good mate of mine, Mike Howell.

Basically Mike and I are starting this clothing label but with a twist, it’s going to have a social conscience. We’re pretty much all over the interwebs already (Twitter & Facebook) and yesterday when we launched the landing page we pretty much crashed the internet, (sorry for all you trying to watch videos of cats yesterday morning). If you would like to find when we are going to launch (Spoiler Alert! May 2012) or how a clothing company can in fact have a consience let alone a social one then you should sign up on Fiya Attire’s landing page – http://www.fiyaattire.com/.

The cool thing is this is something I have always wanted to do and I’m doing it and it feels great. You know those things you’ve always wanted to do? You should should go do them.

You should follow me on twitter here.

KONY 2012 is a film and campaign by Invisible Children that aims to make Joseph Kony famous, not to celebrate him, but to raise support for his arrest and set a precedent for international justice.

So by now some of you are probably a little sick of me mentioning Airborne on Twitter and Facebook. However that’s what happens when you catch a virus and get sick (not sick as in “oh no I feel terrible…” rather “dude you have check out how sick this is!”). But if I could some up my feelings for Airborne in less than 140 characters it would be the tweet below.

The thing that I like the most about @AirborneMusic is how ambitious they are, that’s so rare these days.

A couple guys are trying to catch some pigeons for breakfast at 8:30 AM on a busy sidewalk next to a busy road. From what I can make out the main guy lured the pigeons in with seeds and then was planning on throwing a container over them… but every time the birds were close enough something scared the pigeons away, either someone walking past or vehicle. Don’t worry no pigeons were harmed during the filming of this. The track being played is Valerna – Combination Pizza Hut & Taco Bell.

It’s not everyday that something remarkable comes along… I just really hope they can pull off what they say.

The big boys (Facebook, Google, Spotify et al) have played their hands. Now for something completely different. #131211 #musicisthevirus

“what if you could get your most dedicated fans to pay you $1 a month in exchange for upfront exclusives, a direct stream of music, and other benefits? Just another theoretical possibility, or a potentially winning idea?

I don’t know about you but I am looking forward to what Justin and his crew are going to release.

“You need a lot of passion for what you’re doing because it’s so hard. Without passion, any rational person would give up. So if youre not having fun doing it, if you dont absolutely love it, youre going to give up. And thats what happens to most people, actually. If you look at the ones that ended up being successful in the eyes of society, often times its the ones who love what they do, so they could persevere when it got really tough. And the ones that didnt love it, quit. Because theyre sane, right? Who would put up with this stuff if you dont love it? So its a lot of hard work and its a lot of worrying constantly. If you dont love it, youre going to fail.” – Steve Jobs
