I remember when I first started this blog, a lot of the entries were just me riding my bike down town and then running into a festival or parade. I’m not trying to pretend like they were all spontaneous, but there was a little feeling of adventure to be had when I’d cycle out of the suburbs and into the urban “mountains” of downtown Houston to see something cool. Things are inarguably different in my life now, but hey, I rode my bike downtown and saw something cool last weekend.

Autos that are less motive and more emotive. That made sense in my head.
2025 Japanese Nostalgic Car Meet
I can’t believe I have never attended the Japanese Nostalgic Car Meet before. Hosted at the Moon Tower Inn nestled in Houston’s East End, the JNCM is a (usually) annual car meet that promises a display of classic Japanese vehicles, but in actuality seems to straight up attract the finest vehicles in town disregarding origin and age.

Coffee and Rice at Catalina (with CJ)
Catalina Coffee has been host to a Sunday morning Coffee and Cars type meet for as long as I can remember. As a nod to the demographic who generally attends, it’s affectionately redubbed as Coffee and Rice. I personally had never attended before, being that it requires one to wake up early on a weekend, but CJ is a regular attendee and when one of your brothers presents an opportunity to meet up you take it.

TX86Day hosted by NonStopTuning
Had mega fun photographing this event celebrating Toyota AE86, Scion FRS and Subaru BRZ. I have never photographed drift cars in action so this was hella fun to do at the expense of a very, very hot day and a mild sunburn. Enjoy the photos!!!
Texas Motor Speedway – LoneStar Drift Round 4
Everytime I come up to Texas Motor Speedway I have mixed feelings about the trip. It’s a long as hell drive to what’s ultimately the middle of nowhere. And for all the middle of nowhere that it occupies, it is still the most expensive round to put on for the Lone Star Drift guys. On the driver side of things it’s a terrifying escapade into the deep end of the pool. The big calling for the track is that it’s been host to a round of Formula D for the past two years. As simple as the layout is, it’s fast, it’s tough and it’s dangerous. For the ProAm drivers fighting for their Formula D Pro 2 licenses, it’s a monster they all have to challenge sooner or later.
Rice Bowl x Anime Matsuri Weekend
It has been a real fun few weekends! I’m hella joyed to officially welcome Hai to our little team of Hipster nerds after CJ and I caught up with him at Anime Matsuri. He’ll be our dude out in Austin sharing whatever fun he gets into over there, and hopefully he’ll drop into to town to visit once in a while. Hai and I talked a little bit about StrangeRhythms and its audience, and I briefly outlined that our content direction is the desire to share things we love through photography. In a few words, passions over everything, photos before anything; have camera, will trespass. We’re just nerds that want to do media stuff! That in mind, our actual coverage is a strange ensemble of subjects. Some days we post fashion things, other days it’s motorsports and occasionally, it could be anime. You’d think these hobbies would all be mutually exclusive, but sometimes they come together as an orchestra and produce a beautiful symphony.
