SINGULAR MUSIC FESTIVAL ➔ TWIN SHADOW

Pepe Jeans has always had a strong passion for music and now is the time to share that love. 

The Singular Music Festival is an independent festival that will bring the audience closer to the music, through both the performance and the surroundings, allowing you to really appreciate the music itself.

The Singular Music Festival take place in 4 European cities: London, Lisbon, Berlin and Bilbao. 

The event in each city will be held in an unusual location, allowing a limited audience to see one of four bands perform.

Now its time for Lisbon to receive Singular Music Festival and TWIN SHADOW will be the guest, September 1 at Clube Ferroviário!

Twin Shadow started his career in Brooklyn, presenting his first and only album "Forget", a mix of electropop, elegance, and a characteristical voice. "If there's something that Twin Shadow will be remembered for, then that's his voice, his identity beyond his songs and music. He's been called The Black Morrissey, a scandal for many and possibly flattering to him." (JNSP) An artist that will attract the audience and connect with it through his 80s revival creations.

Gareth Pugh ➔ Absolut Vodka

British goth-chic designer Gareth Pugh has recently teamed up with ABSOLUT MODE EDITION to participate in a redesign of the iconic ABSOLUT bottle. 

Having served as a blank canvas for the likes of Andy Warhol, Kurt Wenner and Spike Lee, the Swedish brand’s bottle serves doubly as a container and a piece of art, especially when designed as special limited editions. 

For his turn at the trademark spirit, Pugh chose to evoke the realm of fashion by creating a bottle with twelve facets and wrapping it in a midnight blue silk cloth embroidered band. Available exclusively at Harvey Nichols and Selfridges, the distinctive ABSOLUT model is sure to be a collectors item for fashionistas and discerning drinkers alike. 

STRING THEORY

Pairing mathematics with craftsmanship, the textile designers behind Montreal label String Theory weave quality yarns into beautifully-patterned super-soft scarves and throw blankets. The two-person team behind the brand works closely with small-batch manufacturers, allowing for wide experimentation with techniques. 

This artful combination of tradition and innovation results in everyday accessories with Modernist geometric appeal. Currently String Theory's Euclidean designs come in simple black and gray motifs, using mostly Alpaca, cotton and bamboo. 

Initial designs include intricate String Theory 101 scarf, which mimics the weaving process, and the Big Mess throw, an elegantly scrambled composition.

Rie Hosokai ➔ Balloon Couture

Pins and needles may be an integral element of most garment construction, but for Rie Hosokai, the pointy tools could leave her designs coming up flat, literally. 

You see, Hosokai deftly twists and manipulates balloons—yes, that’s right, balloons.

Rie Hosokai is the wordlwide appreciated balloon artist. Her significant technique and exquisite sense of fashion were proven by winning the international balloon dress competition "Millenniumjam Fashion Award" two years in a row and many other major balloon art contests.

She is the most desired and favorite artist which performances continue to entertain all audiences of all ages.

DARKO ➔ BORDERLINE PERSONALITY DISORDER

The new project from Portuguese singer/songwriter Zé Manuel, opens with 7 fairly standard pop-rock songs, with folk and blues influences throughout. 

The second half veers off into slower, more emo-ish territory and it's then that things get really interesting. Songs like "The Weirdest Place I've Ever Been", "Broke The Clock Again", "The Death (It's Over Now)" and "Not Your Fucking Daddy" manage to really stand out. 

As a whole this mad record is hard to resist.

Check out the amazing videoclip from the first DARKO single, "Define Joy" !

 

DAVE RAPOZA ➔ TMNT SERIES

Illustrator Dave Rapoza unleashed this great series of Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles characters rendered in his unique, hyper-detailed style. Check out the teeth on our favorite foursome, and the awesome looks of villainous bumbling duo Bebop and Rocksteady.

The whole series looks mad.

Miss Van and Anaoana’s ➔ Oddities

Morphed from the disturbingly entertaining childhood memories of circuses comes the entity of Miss Van and Anaoana’s newest collection: Oddities. Abounding with juxtaposing visuals of warped humans and animals, each piece from the collection bellows gaudy magnetism and pale intensity.

Chien Wang Yang ➔ Sexy Mad House

Taiwanese photographer Chien Wang Yang sure has a very unique idea about what fun around the house means. Sexy young ladies, in different parts of the house, playing around in a very pop and colorful world. Not your usual childhood memory, right?
