Chrome Daydream
Chrome stars, jelly hearts and holographic colour. A nod to the glossy, optimistic graphics of the early web.
The notebook changes its cover every month. Each one takes its cues from a different corner of music, paper and internet culture. Explore the collection below.
Haunted Notebook is here through November 1. Coffee Shop Confessional takes over November 2.
Chrome stars, jelly hearts and holographic colour. A nod to the glossy, optimistic graphics of the early web.
Cassette ribbons, red-pen hearts and pink paper. For anyone who ever put too much thought into a mixtape.
Vines wind around the speakers and flowers take over the margins. Spring gets the volume knob.
Pixel ghosts, cherries and electric blue meet the notebook doodles. A little arcade cabinet in the margins.
The pink splashes, coffee ring and black doodles that started it, with the volume turned up. The notebook's home colours.
Peel-and-stick chaos: skulls, butterflies, hearts and neon lightning. Think of the back of your favourite battered laptop.
Torn tickets, halftone fragments and bright scraps. A cover that borrows the rough edges of a wall full of gig flyers.
Black ink, torn paper and acid-yellow sparks. A love letter to photocopied zines and the flyers you kept after the show.
Stars, speakers, tape and every loud colour at once. Back-to-school stationery with absolutely no restraint.
Moths, little ghosts and crimson ink creep through the black flourishes. The notebook has a late-night alter ego.
Coffee rings, headphones and warm paper. A cover for the long walk home and the track you play again when you get there.
Moons, moths and constellations spill across midnight-blue ink. The margins drift into space; the music keeps going.

Barry Can’t Swim - Dance Dance Dance! Barry Can’t Swim makes music for exactly this window, that gold-light stretch where the day hasn’t decided to become a night yet. The piano loop is stupidly joyful and the whole thing swings instead of thumps, which is a harder trick than it sounds. Twenty seconds in and your shoulders are already gone. 2. Jamie xx -...

The White House confirmed today that construction on a $200 million ballroom starts in September. Ninety thousand square feet. Capacity for 650. Designed after Mar-a-Lago, because the man looked at the people’s house and decided it needed more of his living room. “Private donors” are covering it, which is Washington for people who need something from this administration and are buying the most expensive receipt in the country. Also today: 100% tariffs on imported patented drugs kicked in. Seventeen pharmaceutical companies were big enough to negotiate their way out. The rest pass the cost straight to you. He is taxing...
