Karl x Johan - Flames

Karl X Johan is a project by two Swedish musicians called Kalle J and Johan Tuvesson, Tuvesson used to be the singer of a pretty cool neo-synth-pop project called Nicolas Makelberge. The guys released their first debut single “Flames” on an new Swedish label called Emotion and have been so kind to upload the new brand video “Flames”.
This video puts a date under a macro lens and shows us the horribly disgusting/ surprisingly beautiful movements that get you laid.

DEBOCHE 29.01

29.01.11 @ EUROPA (LISBON)
(23h30m-4h)
DEBOCHEs. m.- Gal. Libertinagem; 
devassidão; estroinice.- (Regionalismo, Brasil) zombaria explícita e veemente.- (Regionalismo, Brasi), (Dança) certa dança de estilo alegre e sensual; 
NUNO LOPES INVITES TWIN TURBO
Twin Turbo are the twin brothers Nuno and Pedro Pinto. After a few experiences in other projects, they began playing together as DJ's in early 2006. Since then, they have played in the best clubs in Porto, their home town, such as Plano B, Passos Manuel, Pitch, Hard Club, Gare, Bazaar and Indústria, Lisbon (Lux, Mini-Mercado, Incógnito...)
Always on Turbo mode, their unpredictable sets mix the dirty and distorted sounds of bassline and fidget house with tough techno beats.
In October 2009 they started the Club MegaBass with Sérgio Gomes (Breaks Lda) with headquarters at Armazém do Chá in Oporto but it tends to spread throughout the country and beyond.
Now, producing music is the next step, and the first experiences are available…And yes, they have a passion for vehicles with supercharged engines. 
Care for a ride?

TONIGHT! PANIC by Jameson with LIGHT YEAR and MOULLINEX


PANIC by JAMESON
Light Year (aus) + Moullinex + Gal.lak
Thursday 27.Jan 01-07h/ Musicbox, Lisbon

A dupla de Sidney Light Year viaja finalmente à Europa para agitar as nossas pistas de dança e o ponto de partida tinha de ser Lisboa.
As festas PANIC continuam a surpreender, trazendo a Portugal pela primeira vez alguns dos artistas mais desejados da cena electrónica internacional, como foi o caso do americano Harvard Bass ou os canadianos Jokers Of The Scene. No próximo dia 27 de Janeiro é a vez dos Australianos LIGHT YEAR lançarem o pânico no Musicbox.
O seu último EP "5 Girls" tem tido grande apoio de alguns dos maiores nomes da electrónica como Tiga, Mr.Oizo, Surkin, 2 Many Djs, Erol Alkan, entre outros.
Para o pânico ser total, não dispensamos a presença do imprevisivel MOULLINEX que traz no bolso o seu novo EP "Chocolat". Há muito que esperávamos por isto.. e o Sr. Moullinex trabalhou arduamente neste projecto. O produtor de funk electrónico português esteve por todo lado: em blogs e à volta do mundo, depois de lançar o prévio Superman EP.
Foi difícil encontrar tempo para terminar o seu novo EP, mas a espera valeu a pena. Desta vez, vai ainda mais longe: Sunset Boogie? Beach House? Mocassin Funk? Prog Disco? Vê por ti mesmo: é sem dúvida eficaz na pista, mas onde funciona melhor é em casa, com o frio lá fora... mas em casa é que eu não fico!
----

Experiencing PANIC is said to be one of the most INTENSE experiences of a person's LIFE.
It's a sudden overwhelming feeling that floods the body with hormones and ADRENALINE.
People often report a sensation of being in a DREAM-LIKE state where the environment seems UNREAL.
This is the time to be a bit crazy and let your creativity run free!
It’s a space where you can be whoever or whatever you want!

Federico Mancosu - Music Video Series

To capture a famous video in one image isn’t as easy as you might think. Italian graphic designer Federico Mancosu came up with the idea to do exactly this.
His slick minimalist style and nice color combination make these posters speak out almost as much as the videos did
Of course it’s not a coincidence Federico chose clips by great directors like Jonathan Glazer, Michel Gondry, Anton Corbijn, Spike Jonze, Mark Romanek, Chris Cunningham and Stephane Sednaoui.



Animating - Chanel

Chanel just released this beautiful stop motion directed by Peter Philips, the global creative director of makeup of Chanel.
A jet-propelled robot, a beaming sun god and an impish spider are not the likeliest of characters to embody the ultra-luxurious world of Chanel, but Peter Philips, the innovative mind behind them, has made his name pursuing the unexpected. Chanel’s Global Creative Director of Makeup took a break from conceptualizing cosmetic gold to don the animator’s cap for today’s short, a work inspired by a series of headdresses he crafted from beauty product packaging for a Vogue Paris shoot. 
Built from a trove of compacts, glosses, brushes and more, Philips’s characters embark on a journey that begins with a lipstick-powered automaton blasting through the clouds and ends on more familiar ground, with a model whose chic ensemble channels Mme Chanel herself.

Louboutin S/S11

Not Just Shoes Anymore
The Spring/Summer 2011 Louboutin lookbook by Khuong Nguyen shows the shoes, not on feet, but strapped to rockets, carried by umbrellas and pulled by balloon animals. It has a Murakami/Alice in Wonderland feel – literally and figuratively putting Christian Louboutins in another dimension.

Gareth Pugh A/W 11

With a collection inspired by religious iconography and Florentine opulence, Gareth Pugh made his Italian fashion debut at Pitti Immagine #79. Showcasing his clothes via a unique fashion film, created with Ruth Hogben and projected onto the ceiling of a 14th-century church, Pugh melded the grand traditions and art of this ancient city with his own hyper-modern fashion vision.

Louis Vuitton 2011 Fall/Winter

Louis Vuitton’s menswear head Paul Helbers walked an unorthodox line when theming Louis Vuitton’s Fall/Winter 2011 collection. The inspirations were derived from the muted palettes of the Amish and the sensibilities of American creative David Lynch. The collection itself was a subtle affair with the only real use of color featured in Motel Red which offered a strong juxtaposition amongst more than just color.
