Description:
DJ and producer Brennan Green is one funny dude (not funny-peculiar, but funny-maybe you shouldn't get that wasted before you go on the radio haha). He is one of the luminaries of underground disco and a legend. He has his own label, Chinatown, which you might have heard of. He started those interesting NY parties Pop Your Funk and Junky Blues that made every guy with a lumberjack beard start wanting to play disco.

Description:
James and Scottie Cameron's accountant said they should move some excess stock before doors open at their new store mid October. It is not often that the words of an accountant bring joy to the masses, and especially not the same week his stocks fell 7 billion points or some crap. Anyway, you'll get shirts for $65, pants for $80, knitwear for $40 and Common Projects shoes, for which not even Jesus deserves a discount.

You won't catch these Germans out for modesty. And you won't catch them out for not starting a punch up with Courtney Love then getting arrested for DUI. Die Toten Punkte topped the European charts, for what it's worth, in 2005 with their pop punk anthem ‘The Best Band in the World'.

Description:
If people are saying things like 'pure aural electricity' about your show, then you're on the right track. And Toshi Reagan has been on that track since they put ashphalt down. She does retro funk, R&B, rock, folk and blues. Plus she's funny, which is more than can be said for most of the artists in these genres (except for James Brown, but that wasn't deliberate).

Mattt Bags for MIAF

28th Sep 08
Product: Accessories
Theft: Theft is likely

Plenty of artists rescue stuff from the garbage. In fact, they might as well start listing themselves in the Yellow Pages next to Mini Skips. 'We drag your crap away and exhibit it at ACCA! Come see it again! Free champagne and floor talks.'

Anyway, the amazing Matt Thomson (of Mattt Bags) takes this worthy endeavour one step further by incorporating used goods into his products.
