Tokyo Rising

Its almost been a year since the devastating earthquake and tsunamis hit Japan.

As well as being an avid fan of Japanesme and culture, Pharrell Williams is also a contributor and supporter of relief programs for the people affected by the events of 3/11.

Earlier this year he went out to Tokyo with Palladium to film a mini documentary about the strong as ever creative scene and eclectic culture. The 5 part series explores some of the social and historical issues which have lead to 'modern Japanese culture'. Its really well shot and interesting to watch (partly due to) Pharrells perspective with which he compares the pre and post 3/11 city, as well as seeing some really unique places like the underground aquaduct and the 3331 'arts platform'.

Check part 1 below and the rest of the series here.

Nosaj Thing London A/V show II.

Black Atlantic hit back with another great party this Thursday at XOYO with a Nosaj Thing A/V show. The last time he came over it was like this.

Lovebox 2011

For years lovebox was not too far from V festival in terms of the acts booked and the public it attracted but as the years have gone by the people behind the festival have really pulled up their socks; bringing in of some of the best headliners (Snoop Dogg) and an array of great electronic acts.

This year is no different with the likes of FWD / Rinse (with their A-Z of residents) and Vice both holding stages on the Friday bringing in the likes of:

Flying Lotus (Live)
Spank Rock (Live)
Herve
Hudson Mohawke (Live)
Photek (Live)
