A.P.C in London

Dover Streets new addition, in the form of A.P.C should be opening anytime soon.

For those that don't know to much about a.p.c here is all you need to know . .

"A.P.C. is a French brand founded in 1988 by the Tunisian born Designer Jean Touitou. A.P.C. stands for 'Atelier de Production et de Creation'. The brand is known for its cleancut and minimalist nature, as well as simple, chic, and modern design, with military over-tones. The brand makes great use of denim and high quality fabrics, while for the most part steering clear of the widespread overuse of leather in upscale design. The quality of Touitou's fabric are matched by a similar dedication to ensuring his designs fit appropriately, which at the outset of his career, was a rebellion against the loose-fitting clothes of his contemporaries.

One of the brands most popular items is its New Standard denim, which is made of dry selvage denim, in Macau.

The clothes of A.P.C. were at first primarily exclusively distributed. However, in recent years, A.P.C. has opened shops most numerously in Europe, with several in addition to the flagship store in Paris, Osaka and in the United States, two in New York City, in Brooklyn and Greenwich Village, and another boutique in Hollywood. They most recently opened a flagship store in Hong Kong's Central district"

90's Benetton

Who remembers United Colours of Benetton's contoversial assault on the advertising world in the early 90's? Not that easy to forget. The images were devised by photographer Oliver Toscani and had nothing to do with any products sold by Benetton. They confronted topics such as race, polictics, social issues and sexuality.

Here's a selection from 1989 to 1997....

All are out to shock but this is one of the most controversial. The image shows AIDS activist David Kirby dying from AIDS surrounded by his family.

These set of images offended most but were appretiated by many. Raising issues or tasteless advertsing? Its your call.

PROF GREEN - UPPER CLAPTON DANCE

Big Video, Big track. E5 Stand up!

Pressure: Chase & Status, London Elektricity, Plastician & Rusko

Maximum capacity for a gargantuan line up @ The Copper Rooms Tuesday evening, a great time had by all. Plastician drawing for thirty minutes of grime was just plain stupid, skanking time for me!

London Elekricity repped Hospital fully drawing for that feel good drum n bass, his energy from behind the decks really got the crowd going early doors..

Next up were Chase & Status, clearly the act everyone was there to see. Absolutely ridiculous crowd antics, some seriously choppy mixes digging deep into the RAM crates at times from Chase, or was it Status... I guess the other guy was playing in Ibiza. As rinsed as their album is a Chase & Status set always goes down a treat!

Had to run up the stairs for Plastician who standardly smashed it, 30 mins of old skool grime instrumentals with some of his accappella's ripped up the dance, I found myself screaming reload at the top of my voice on many many occasions (out to Greg T for missing this)

Make some noise for Plastician...

Finally up stepped Rusko & Rod Azlan, the students went absolutely fucking NUTS! As did Rusko, behind the deck antics were quite something, Rusko was skanking as hard as the crowd at times.
