new life, new city, new name...

alright. i'm finally here. brighton is the new home, and already it's living up to the hype. quality music scene here for real. i just need to get out there and meet some more people. so i'm currently tryin to get a lil part-time job or something, just so i can get to know who's running shit down here.
anyway, hope you like the (slightly) new look, and new name, and in honour ima put together another mix for all y'all...

...stay tuned!

gettin deeper by the day - it's an end of an era...

i'm leaving the 13th floor, so i thought i'd better let her inspire one more mix before i move south, to brighton. and after the full on madness of my leaving party at dust bar, i was on a deep/tribal house tip. there's nothing better to listen to whilst the sun is rising in the early hours of the morning...
anyway, please download the zip file, and copy the files into your itunes asap. as usual everything's tagged up n shit, with the artwork already included. holla with your feedback in the comments section. cheers.

glowing dunks...

it ain't just kanye who can do a glow in the dark tour ya know. and talking of customisation (see previous post), the stunnaz you see below are my "glow in the dark dunks", self-customised with my uv marker.
standard.

and it's temporary. basically, ultra violet light charges up glow in the dark shit like a mutha, so if you've got a nice little uv torch (like me), then you can effectively use it like a pen on glow in the dark surfaces/products.

ill.

the "splintz" nike id's...

oh yes. the badbwoys have finally arrived. these kicks are the shiznit for real, trust bruv. zoom air sole, proper premium leather, and a subtle little splintz tag. to be honest it was all my creative juices that spawned these sick crepes... ha!
let me know what you think. you like or not? anything you think i shoulda done different?
can't wait to get my next pair...

right or wrong...

this is the latest offering from the crazy fools over at warp films. now, be careful, it's a bit rude. kinda. i think.




directed by eric wareheim (tim & eric) in association with warp records and warp films. music by flying lotus. more info at dancefloordale.com

well, what do you think? is this shit cool or not? i'm still undecided...

h&m x commes des garcon...

h&m are set to release a brand new collection in collaboration with japanese avant garde fashion house comme des garcon. looks pretty hot to me. the collection drops in japan first in early november, then worldwide on the 13th of novemeber.

click here to view the full collection.

big up to nitrolicious for the hook up.

notorious...

can't believe someone is making a hollywood film of biggie's life. i ain't sure about this. what do you think? yay or nay...?

some next level shit...

you know that mans don't be matching their nails up with their crepes. i'm going on crazy though, starting nuff trends and shit init.
watch, 2009 gonna be the year mans be paintin they nails, no homo. standard. watch...

simplicity is beauty...

anyone looking for an illustrator, need look no longer. my dear friend toby finally has his website up and running, and it looks great. go check out some of his work. i've got a link in my links list, or simply click here.i really love his japanese influenced stuff, but there's many other styles he can use. he's hackney based (like all genius legends), but whatever your project, simply drop him a line. all his contact details are on the site.

put this is your diary now...

make sure you get down to this on the 19th of september, it's gonna be massive. if you're into funk (or even if you ain't), come down for a quality night of live music and funk, soul and hip hop classics on the wheels of steel courtesy of a certain splintz. and i personally endorse kerfunk. they take you right back to the early 70's. they're fuckin brilliant.
i do hope to see you there in full force. peace and love.

the future of hip hop...

mickey factz from brooklyn, and the cool kids from chicago are so hot you better watch out your computer don't burn up. they some serious shit, for real. and them together is unbeatable. just watch the video below, pump up the volume, and enjoy.

summed up in 60 minutes...

i know it's been time since the last post, but trust, the wait was worth it. i've just put together a real nice mix including most of the tracks i'm really feelin at the moment. the tracklisting is serious. it's a real downstairs mix-up, cos i just wanted to put together a set that ain't too genre specific, nah mean?

r.i.p. tama stagestar...

the time has come and gone. my faithful old tama has moved onto a better place. of course, it's sad to say goodbye, but i'm all about "out with the old, in with the new" - and just wait until tomorrow to see exactly what that "new" is...

yes please...

mmmmmmmmmmm.

limited edition yves saint laurent tribute platform sandal.

unknown kurt geiger fetish style shoe.

me lookin like a twat, as usual...

the "bloods" outfit:

it's all about the marc jacobs handbag strap modified into the most badass chain ever...

act like you know...

damn, it's been a while since i've said that. used to be my catchphrase, and i think it's time to bring it back.
i was seriously acting and knowing whilst at the bays on friday as you can see below.by the way, this photo is completely unedited, somehow my camera managed to come up with this crazy colour shit...

wow...

this dude is amazing, and i think he's better live than on record. check this performance from "later with jools holland" out.

cool grey spiz'ikes...

mmmm, icy soles...

are you ready for this...

oh shit!
this is gonna be the sickest hip hop album to drop in a very long time. two of the hottest rhymers from the legendary d.i.t.c. crew (a.g. & o.c.) are finally doing an album together, with production from showbiz, buckwild, dj premier and more!
currently called "oasis - together brothers", here's a sneak peak at what to expect...

2 for the money - o.c. & a.g.

the wackness...

just watched the 3 teaser trailers for this film. not bad. if you're into golden age hip hop, then i think this will be a nice little indie film. i just hope they do the right thing, and make sure there's mad kicks from '94 featured.
really good soundtrack featuring all old classics; nas, biggie, raekwon, the biz, a tribe called quest, and of course, method man. i say of course as he's in the film as a jamaican drug dealer. now that'll be interesting...

watch the trailers here.

dropping in the uk on the 29th august.
