Box Of Bees is The Arch Cupcake's full-length follow up to his highly acclaimed Wash Out EP. The Arch Cupcake is DJ/Writer/Producer Frederick Sargolini, one half of the seminal electronic duo, Ming+FS. Box Of Bees is Fred's full-length debut as a solo artist.
Box Of Bees is inspired by youthful memories of trips to Mexico, beat boxing in middle school hallways, and talent show DJ battles. In TAC's words, "I attempted to create an album that sounds like a novel. The goal was to create a sonic narrative of childhood memories."

American painter. Al Held’s death in 2005 came at the end of a distinguished career of more than 50 years. Born in Brooklyn, New York in 1928, Held showed no interest in art until he left the Navy in 1947 and enrolled in the Art Students League. His large-scale paintings of colorful, simple yet abstract geometric forms gained increasing recognition in America and Europe. In 1962, he was appointed to the Yale University Faculty of Art. In his later years, Held undertook numerous public commissions including murals in the New York subway system and art glass windows in Washington’s National Airport.
Al Held is a pioneer of Geometric Abstraction who painted large-scale works that contained a dizzying array of perspectives and optical effects. In this painting, images recede and grow, thrust inward and outward, change scale and direction, and build an orderly yet seemingly impossible space. The taped edge design of the surface and use of brilliant colors act as highways to lead the eye around the canvas and give the painting an exhilarating sense of depth.
