1960's Brixton
Saturday night those who were still standing rolled upto Judah's 'House Party'. Probably the best jam i've been to in years. The vibe was on point, everything goes policy, sickest venue plus beats by some of the best Dj's about. Felt like some old school jam you can only read about...
Mens toilet was genius...
Carnival pics soon come.

Bank Holiday Weekend
Last weekend was rediculously live. Saturday me and the majority of the gang reached Annoushka and Tilly's BBQ...
One For the Bikers.
Here we get a little glimpse of the special collaboration between cyclist and Creative Director of Intersection Magazine, Yorgo Tloupas and Nike as part of the City Tempo/CTRS/Livestrong collection, in which 8 cyclists from 8 different cities choose a colorway for the Nike City Tiempo shoe.
Basically the idea Yorgo has gone for is to use 3M reflective material in black all over the shoe, apart from the swoosh, laces, and sole. So during the day the shoe is sober and black, and at night it shines brightly, and adds to your visibility when riding.
these are prototype pictures I'll pester for more.

Film Review -City Rats
Last week I was invited to the screening of a new British film at the launch of 'Urban Screen' at Curzon in Mayfair, the film they were showing was called 'City Rats'.
This film follows the complex lives of a number of people as they struggle through London living and how they deal with the problems that many face on a day to day basis.
Familiar faces Danny Dyer and Tamir Hussain are both main characters. They both play roles that were quite different to their usual London gangsters, with the script being much more demanding it was good to see them taking on these roles. Other notable performances come from Natasha Williams (who plays a call girl) and Ray Panthaki (impotent artist) who is also the producer of 'City Rats'. Before this film Ray starred in Eastenders and also produced the great 'Kidulthood'.
One thing that really stands out about this film is the way is was shot, the production makes it look like a multi million pound film. The camera work is one of the best I've seen in any independent film and the sound track fits in perfect. There are scenes in the film where you want to look away because its shocking but feel you cant because its shot so well.
Afterwards we were treated to a question and answer with the producer where he shared with us what he had to go through to get the film made and financed, he let slip the budget and the whole audience was shocked that he pulled it off.
Ray also told us about his production company called 'Urban Way Productions' and its plans for the future, its obvious the guy has major talent but his passion was also evident. If you're looking to get into production then this is a guy you want to be speaking to.
I think this film definitely opens the doors to more braver British films, less football hooligans and east end wide boys and more real life issues we all face.
Check the trailer...
Big thanks to Kate Herron for the invite.
