What is CFYE?
In short, a platform for inspiring content and exposure of creative audio and visual work. For the full answer, we redirect you to the 'about' page and wish you much reading pleasure!
Â
Why are you here?
There's a lot that inspires and moves us: music, photography, (street) art and the creative people behind it. We hope to help the ones that inspire us by offering them a platform, and we hope to inspire others with what inspires us. Inspiring, isn't it?
Â
You guys are all over the place, what kind of projects do you have going on?
Â

A selection of the (in our opinion) best mixtapes and new 'myspace' artists around the globe. We try and help you discover new artists and new music with almost daily posts of new electronic music. We wrapped that up in a sleek little jacket and called it Crackforyourears. Join the addiction!
Â
Â
Â

Inspiration is everywhere, we found it on the streets and called it crackforyoureyes. By taking pictures of the nicest stickers, stencils, pieces, paste-ups we created a database with over 3000 street art pictures, and it still grows almost daily.
Â
Â
Â
Â

Your daily doses of inspiring Photography. Our Shuttercrack crew (including ourselves) are inviting the cream of the crop in our shuttercrack Flickr pool. The best of those get blogged on www.shuttercrack.com, so please eat your heart out!

Â
Â
OMG OMG these logo's are awesome, who made them?
That is our wonderful art director Meneer de Zwart..read more about him on the 'crew' page
Â
Who are you guys?
'We' are Kaymir and Arden. Pleased to meet you!
Â
Are you street / graffiti artists?
Nope, well Arden actually had a try at it in his younger years but didn't do any good. We love the smell of fresh paint though!
Â
Are you musicians?
Nope.. but in this case Kaymir has a great history of turning knobs and pushing buttons in the studio (SSL & Neve tables) . Kaymir used to produce hiphop / filthy electronics on his MPC years ago and slowly made the transition to Ableton. Every once in a while he still locks himself up to produce a fresh mixtape for crackforyourears.com!
Â
Are you photographers?
It's not our profession, but it's something we do and love. Besides that, photography is a big inspiration to us. This is the reason we also try and feature a lot of aspiring and inspiring photographers. See http://www.shuttercrack.com, and for our Flickr streams:
How do you make money?
Well, seeing that CFYE only costs us money:

Are you alone?
No we get loads of female attention, but sometimes on cold winter nights we feel kinda "ronrey"...oh wait..
Seriously, the whole idea behind CFYE is collaboration to build a huge group of inspiring fellow creatives. Seeing the support we've been getting, we're never alone!
How can I contribute?
Our phone lines just opened! Hit us up through the contact page with anything you've got and we'll get back to you as soon as possible!
