I’ve been wanting to do something vaguely travel related on here for a hot minute now. The problem is, outside of telling you where to get the best deep fried pizza in Glasgow, I’m pretty useless at stuff like that. So, we invited Joy along to speak about her new book, “The Best Things to [...]
An exploration of the life of Chet Baker; the inspiration behind Bedwin’s Spring Summer 13 collection.
Opening its doors in 2006, Albam has evolved from a humble upstart to one of the best respected contemporary British brands. Albam’s modern crafted clothing brought a fresh yet simplistic aesthetic to the table. In recent years, this aesthetic has often been mimicked but rarely surpassed. It is apparent that, for Albam, quality product takes [...]
Over the last couple of weeks I have been previewing some of these new Black Lodges t-shirts over on my instagram account, but just realized I hadn’t put them up here yet in their entirety. In any case, after some 10 years of making clothes and what not for other people I thought it was [...]
Craig Ford’s influence on the British clothing and retail scene is practically unparalleled. From managing London’s Bathing Ape store to running his own PR and distribution agency, A Number of Names*; Craig has amassed a wealth of knowledge and expertise throughout his career. Recently, the man himself was kind enough to sit down with us [...]
Trade show season is about to kick off and together with our (capsule) friends we thought we would create something a little special for our Berlin edition of the tradeshow. Graciously, (capsule) agreed to let me and my crew have a little playground within the tradeshow ( January 15-16, Berlin- get it? ) and what [...]
The boys at 80s Casuals are well know for their ever-growing collection of nostalgia (and football) inspired clobber. The times of only printed tees are gone, the collection ranges from knits to scarves, jackets etc. All of them quality gear. Time to step up the game again … and launch a record label. We sat [...]
We were in Berlin last week to put on the third (capsule) show in Berlin- and that’s your disclaimer right here- and I finally found some time from my wasted mind and body to put together some sort of recap of what happened. I am not going to mention the weather, only so much: No [...]
The news just hit me that founding member, Adam Yauch, known to legions and generations of people as MCA, of the Beastie Boys has died. First and foremost, my feelings of sympathy and shared grief go towards his family. MCA leaves behind a wife and daughter and with them my heart felt feelings go first. [...]
Last night Graveyard kicked off their German part of the tour in the only proper Swedish invading Viking hard rocking style possible. Graveyard, veterans of the Swedish rock, doom , folk and blues scene starting putting tunes out under said name around 2008 if I remember correctly and since then fans like myself, have been [...]
Ah nothing better than a “press a button to make the world a better place” social media campaign to get the young generation in a twist and shout contest about how bad the world is. Ok- before I get into it- I agree in principle that Mr. Kony is one bad motherfucker. What he has [...]
It’s no secret that I get excited about good music, especially, good live music, which is really how music should be enjoyed in my book. We were guests to Hanni El Khatib last night here in St.Pauli and before I get into all the nerdy music detailing, let me get one thing off my chest [...]
You can tell that Spring is around the corner, at least around my parts, mostly because it’s staying lighter past 3pm. Which is a real plus, considering we live in darkness for around 4 months. I know, I shouldn’t be moaning, my friends up in Stockholm really have it a lot worse, but damn, I [...]
Ever since word got out about the proposed Stop Online Piracy Act being put forth to the American Congress, the internet has been inflamed with what seems to be the end battle of all battles to protect the freedom we have all come accustomed with. I have been thinking about SOPA, it’s reason, effects and [...]
