5yearplans:

From some of the best Milwaukee Hip Hop has to offer, comes ‘One of These Kids’. Dana Coppafeel, SPEAK Easy, and Prophetic team up for a track off of an upcoming EP, Uni-Fi Records Presents… Dana Coppafeel & SPEAK Easy. Love this video.

I love Proph’s verse on this track.

One of my favorite things about Milwaukee.

I especially love seeing them in the winter. The bright blue pops against all the white. I grew up with one on the corner of my street and even before I watched Doctor Who I was fascinated with them, but now I find myself wondering if they’re bigger on the inside. (:

“Milwaukee Polka” sung by Patti Page (with Joe Riesman and His Polka-Dots.)

This record reminds me of my childhood. No, I wasn’t alive in 1953 when Mercury Records released this track, but my grandmother gave me her phonograph and record collection when I was rather young. This tune was always my favorite. I’ve lived in Wisconsin (near Milwaukee) my whole life, and listening to Patti Page’s cheerful voice sing about familiar places always made me feel better.

“Milwaukee, he’s wild about Milwaukee. When we kiss, I’ll tell you this: I love Milwaukee too!”

High Speed Liquid Flowers Photographed by Jack Long

At a quick glance these colorful photographs by Milwaukee-based photographedJack Longmight pass as some kind of strange exotic flowers, but a squint of the eyes later reveals they are actually high speed photographs of colored water, captured in a way to mimic the shape of blooms, leaves, and even pots.

Each photograph from Long’s Vessels and Blooms series is captured in a stunningly precise take that took months of trial and error to perfect. Like a mad scientist he creates cocktails of dyes, thickeners, and pigments for each component of the shot and then blasts them through a customized mechanism before snapping a perfectly timed capture. “This series was a culmination of months of planning and testing. Hundreds of captures are made in testing and then many more during the actual final capture stage. A very few stand out as being the best,” he says. You can see much more of his work on Flickr and 500px.

Milwaukee! Not to mention this is absolutely insane(ly brilliant)

Bryant's own "Pink Squirrel"

jfmo1974:

Bryant’s Cocktail Lounge, hidden away in Milwaukee’s Historic Mitchell Street district, is Milwaukee’s oldest cocktail lounge, having opened its doors in 1938. No menu. The servers begin a conversation with you, discuss your preferences in alcoholic joy, and spend your evening attempting to match your tastes with those of over 150 cocktail recipes ensconced within the memories of their venerable bartenders. Do not ignore this gem.

Take heart, Milwaukeeans! The City of Milwaukee recently solicited bids to revive the tradition of beer gardens in our city parks! This summer the Old German Beer Hall will operate a Biergarten in Estabrook Park.
