Foreign Sounds

Mixtape season is definitely not over. As leaders of the new school we are definitely putting this culture on our backs, and music is definitely one of the premier assets of culture. So expect another mixtape from Mickey Factz, the introduction of K.i.D Cudi, and more. Up to bat, in their latest offering is our brothers from another mother from another galaxy, A.L.I.E.N. They'll be releasing their mixtape within the coming week, but come out this Thursday, August 30th as they have Mixtape Madness going down at SWAY (I'll be back from Vegas for this one).

Rocksmith Fall '07

It's that time of the year that all the brands get their lookbooks and line sheets together, so that the retail buyers can begin their selection at which tags they believe their customers will be popping for this fall/winter season. So Rocksmith Clothing recently reached out to us to handle the art direction for their lookbook of this seasons collection. The eyes of the lens belong to coming-of-age photographer Brian Cleaver, and as you see the shots came out great. Thanks to everyone that participated in the shoot (Fausto of LaVie Clothing, Leo of LV the Stylist, Christian, Pan of Trace Magazine, Dice, Johnny Killface, Jared Ryder, Osa of Complete Technique, Jerry and more). Visit HighSnobiety to check out the rest of the line.

Also be sure to check out the new Kilo Goods collection at HighSnobiety as well.

FYI

The good folks over at Garbege Clothing reached out to us to do an interview. Like Jay once said, "Real recognize real, and you looking familiar." Go over to their FYI blog to check out the interview and other news going on in this culture you live to die for.
