Places And Spaces
You all know the Donald Byrd track right. Well if you don’t you should check it out as not only is it totally amazing but it really sums up my life over the past two weeks. I’ve been traveling so much I don’t know whether I am coming or going and, given that I have been seriously lagging with the blog which I am doing my best to remedy, I thought I’d try and just give you all a little fever for the flavor of what I have been up to without boring you to tears.
The first stop was the city where the hypebeasts dwell – New York – and yes this is what you think it is.
It’s always the best catching up with my crew over there and Rex from Ecko, Verni and Scott from Akademiks were on good form as always at the Large Professor jam in deepest darkest BKNY. April was rocking it as well although I still have no idea why she was donning the skiing goggles when it was t-shirt weather outside – I guess some trends I’ll never be able to understand.
Unfortunately it wasn’t all pleasure although I have to confess that the business side of things this time was pretty enjoyable too. I caught up with my girl Tomo from Warp Magazine – Peep the latest issue for the worst picture of me ever not that I am the most photogenic person in the world – and the Hoon guys were in town too from Paris so we sat down to conversate about a few things.
Without wishing to blow up any spots, think about the Twelve Bar logo and what Hoon do and get ready for something special in the 07. You heard it here first.
Then from the Rotten Apple it was off to Tokyo for a week of sales and other madness over there. I spent most of my time there in the showroom working like crazy and taking a few breaks to kick it with my boy Dai, the only and only DJ Quietstorm and Nemo from Calquinto and Bingo from Mack Daddy.
In the few moments free I did have, I caught up with the mystic man himself Yone who took this mildy entertaining photo of me.
I had dinner with the Warner Bros Japan crew who very kindly ordered this plate of vegetables and got the restaurant staff to shape it in the design of the Twelve Bar logo.
I strolled around town where it was good to see Andre representing to the fullest and that someone has been putting our stickers in the right places.
And I also met another girl with crazy nails.
Finally from Tokyo it was back to beautiful London to pack everything up for the bounce to LA.
The 1000% HF Be@rbrick will also be making the move with us. See you on the West Coast very soon. Right now I gotta get some rest like this dude.
