KIKS TYO have gotten together once again with the very fine Aki Hoshino. This time, however, she’s not posing with Dunks. Instead, she’s got Jordans on her feet. Also this time around, they did not put out tees, but a varsity jacket and a fitted.

Pitchfork Top 100 – 2006

December 21st, 2006  •   Posted by: ozo  •   Posted in: music  •   Comments Off

 

A cool reader of Stereogum complied the Top 100 list of Pitchfork. He put the zipped file onto a link which obviously died after few hours. Whatever if you follow the comments of the Stereogum article you could find links from where you can download the zipped file for a while. Actually we weren’t so fascinated by the music of 2006 so we don’t suggest downloading the whole list. Anyway a big shout out to Adam, the zip guy. You can read, but unfortunately can’t download the list below, which has a Hungarian side as well.

RIOTTTVISION: Mob Living Episode 1

December 21st, 2006  •   Posted by: mark  •   Posted in: interviews-articles, website  •   Comments Off

RIOTTTVISION’s latest installment is entitled Mob Living (episode one), which is a video interview with Leah McSweeney, head of Married to the Mob. The start of the interview is a bit reminiscent of a Cribs episode, only her apartment/office has a lot less bling, but is far more appealing. Leah is defnitely down to earth. She pretty much runs MOB all by herself and manages to stay grounded. I have no idea how she manages everything on her own…the designing, the marketing, shipping, etc… Definitely a good watch. Don’t sleep!

Clockwork Orange x J.P. Meulendijks

December 21st, 2006  •   Posted by: ozo  •   Posted in: design, film  •   Comments Off

Alex De Large is one of the persistent icons who I can never get bored of. His myth caught the imagination of the Danish J.P. Meulendijks, who designed what you see in front of you. It is said to be table, but it looks like a giant slanted I-Pod. The only reason for the being of this piece is that it was influenced by Clockwork Orange. I don’t know what I’d do with this if someone gave it to me as a present. I’d probably sell it. It goes for 1249 Euros : )

Ian Curtis x Mishka

December 21st, 2006  •   Posted by: ozo  •   Posted in: fashion, music  •   Comments Off

Kizsó and I are huge Joy Division fans so this crewneck caught my eye when I checked out the new Mishka winter collection. Seems like after Nike, some smaller brands are also influenced by Ian Curtis. I don’t know whether it’s good or bad, but I like the crewneck, though unfortunatley it’s knitted. The whole collection is live and available for purchase over at Mishka’s website.
