So, you thought that LG releasing a 8MP camera phone was hot. Well David Bergman has put up his picture of President Obama's inauguration speech. Yes Obamania and all that shit but I have never seen anything like it. As its a flash file you will need to click here to view it and here to learn about how it was made

Vans Vault

So Vans are showing off their spring/summer collection with some nice canvas and leatherwork, yet the most exciting thing for me is the launch of what the internet riders got all moist about a for a couple of months now.

Based on Italian cycling shoes:

Introducing 44

Born early 2004, the genre blurring record label Botchit & Scarper teamed up with some like minded folks to curate a evening of music, recently they have featured the likes of Mary Anne Hobbs, Evil Nine and Mogwai-who happen to be one of my favourite bands.

We don't usually feature other promoters but these guys really caught my eye. Being able to hold their own in the Lake District and put on some of the most diverse stuff I have seen is quite frankly...dope. Their graphics dept goes from strength with some really aesthetically rigorous design and visuals putting cliche London VJ types to shame.(check out the Discovery reel)

Their residents include the Diesel U Music dance DJ award winner Mister Sushi whose mix can be found here.
Expect to hear more of these guys pretty soon. Until then check the myspace

Sophomore Spring '09

This isn't my favourite of the Sophomore seasons but still looking forward to it this Spring!




Still keeping my eyes peeled for this sold out tee
...


why have a baby when you can have a

HAH! look how happy he is! good marketing angle- pizza bebe = happy bebe
... not to forget dessert...
this one.. not so happy. or maybe just a bit fearful of fat people tryna bite him.

Alternatively, why not dress your baby so you have an excuse to hang it upside down.


even better.. and maybe a bit more humane is pet fancy dress.
why have a shitty white small Cesar dog when you can have sponge bob square dog!!!
hello burgers.
not so sure about the cat outfit... looks like its being eaten by a big red thing... whats with the money too.... cats like money while dogs like burgers?

besos.

Superbowl

I spy Bowler hats:



Bowler hats >>> Trilbys. I have always hated Trilby hats... They make me think Justin Timberlake in the Britney days. Bowler hats are romantic.

The drought's over

Hi folks, Ben K is back with another installment of visual viagra.
Went with my friend Trish down to market place to attend yet another Dilla tribute.

Saw Sam who I haven't seen for a hot minute, still.

I'm not gonna lie, twas a tad dry as I am not much of a Dilla fan and the event wasn't that packed. So a few drinks and a few tunes later I got on the train to shoreditch to hit up Got Got Need! This was more my thing, with some good tunes and some familiar faces. But alas i missed the opportunity to swap my vintage deadstock iron man DVD. This was due to the war that ensued outside.

Upper case scarf

Are typography prints making a re-appearance? I like these scarves, but it's a shame they are suede now that I have decided not to buy that or leather .


What you saying Brighton?
