no photo – tom ford

seen on fantastic man, great!:

 

“Photographing everything and throwing every random image on Facebook is the new stalking, and a sign of bad manners, which is what provoked designer Mr. TOM FORD to hand out the card as shown above to his audience on Sunday night’s womenswear show in London. Indeed, photography should be an act of consideration, not something to do just out of total boredom. Also, one should trust one’s memory more often.”

Spank Rock: Energy live at the paris social club



the drum beat on this track is awesome. i have it in one of my mixes and i cant seem to find it now but i could swear it was without vocals or at least quite different. so i don’t know if hes sampling this or if this is from scratch. if you know let me know. i don’t know whats up with the heads and tails of the clip here, could have done without it, but skip that to the interior of the club and the music. quite red hot, paris social club. video by bryce ward.

I’m back… couldn’t let is go… just checked…. no wonder this is the base track from the can’s vitamin c. now, how does this guy even know who the can is? the dj must be german, if not its all nicholas jaars fault for pulling this stuff out again for the public. fuckin brilliant. I knew that track couldn’t be from this lame era we live in. regurgitation pays off it sounds great regardless.

vincent gallo in gstar ads


i don’t own any items from gstar, but i think they did a good job picking vincent to do the ads… unlike belvedere…. he seems to fit in somehow. i believe it. i love the guy and despite his republican antics, i like him and his ego. why not? you need an ego to survive this jungle and he’s used it well. we had dinner once at the standard in LA when he was trying to sell his muscle cars and house. talked about PJ harvey drumming for him and all. lost touch with the boy since but i still listen to his music and i love it. so see folks, we are not such haters we just love to love those, who others hate. also see gstar’s jeans collaboration with vitra on the reissue of limited edition jean prouvé furniture. by dd

TS… Meet ST

do you have bands or acts that you have said to yourself you need to see before you die? well i have plenty, and this weekend i was fortunate enough to scratch one of these bands off my list: suicidal tendencies. fronted by mike muir, younger brother of jim muir one of the original z-boys from venice beach skate days, suicidal combines many genres from punk/surf/thrash to metal and funk with a cali vato loco vibe. the energy was amazing, the sound was perfect and the band was tight, being that they are all serious professional musicians. a while back, suicidal collaborated with vans to release a suicidal X vans shoe as an ode to the original vans style of pool skating.  by jr
