I think I might have given Timothy Saccenti his first published editorial (around 1992, The Chemical Brothers perhaps) at the magazine I was editing a while back. By no means am I claiming to have started his career. It was more right place, right time…for me. Seriously, guy has so much amount of raw talent; […]

Banksy is supposedly from Bristol, but as nobody really knows who he is (I have friends that claim to know — I call bullshit on them), then we can’t really tell if he is from Bristol, can we? He essentially took over the entire museum, warping and playing with paintings and exhibits or straight up […]

Our friends over at dubFrequency have put out a 45-minute mix to celebrate their Saturday rooftop pool party at the Standard in downtown LA. Like the party itself, think the sonic equivalent of bikini’d girls in vintage glasses stealing swigs from vodka-filled water bottles cos the drinks cost way too much for them to afford. […]

Obviously, Lucky’s doing their best to separate themselves from the Old Navy and Abercrombie & Fitch  […]

Lucky and FILTER will host the Lucky Brand Neighborhood Social series beginning this Sunday, June 14, at Santa Monica’s 3rd Street Promenade. And guess who they got as the inaugural guest? Why, Bat for Lashes doing acoustic versions of her favorite songs. Nice one. Come see Natasha Khan and alter ego, Pearl, battle it out […]

I guess Lollapalooza has been doing this online Battle of the Bands thing for the past three years and they’ll be doing it again this year. Kinda nice considering that the hardest thing to get if you’re an up and coming DJ is a good gig and an audience. Groupies too. The winner of the […]
