SPOOKY RIDE


The master of dark techno Gesaffelstein is back with his new ep Conspiracy Pt.2, and he teamed up with parisian fixed gear maniacs Ghostriders for one of the nastiest collaboration of all time.
The mastered elegance of the black & white contrasts with a frightening visual reality, increased by the oppressive beat of "Viol". EP out on July 19th under Turbo recordings.

ANALOGUE ARMY

Japanese company PowerShovel was founded for one reason only: a sheer passion for analogue photography. For Carhartt they are now producing one of their most beautiful models – the Blackbird Fly – in a distinctively Carhartt design.

SODA HAPPINESS


John Nese, the owner of Galcos Soda Pop Stop in LA is a true hero. His father ran it as a grocery store, and when the time came for John to take charge, he decided to convert it into the ultimate soda-lovers destination.
About 500 pops line the shelves, sourced lovingly by John from around the world. John has made it his mission to keep small soda-makers afloat and help them find their consumers. Galcos also acts as a distributor for restaurants and bars along the West Coast, spreading the gospel of soda made with cane sugar (no high-fructose corn syrup if John can avoid it)

PEOPLES POISON


Karl Marx once said that the religion is the opium of the people. In the case of Jonestown we all wish it was just that.
With "Go Outside" the astonishing duo Cults (guitarist Brian Oblivion and singer Madeline Follin) cuddle our ears reminding us of something we should never forget...



Peoples Temple Agricultural Project was an intentional community in northwestern Guyana formed by the Peoples Temple, a cult led by Jim Jones. It became internationally notorious in 1978, when 909 members (234 were children) died in Jonestown from cyanide poisoning, in an event termed "revolutionary suicide" by Jones and some members on an audio tape of the event and in prior discussions.
This is the single greatest loss of American civilian life in a non-natural disaster until the events of September 11, 2001.

INTO THE WILD

Living in the woods has never been so styish. The XXS mini-house by recognized architect Magnus Ståhl for swedish company Next House may be the most beautiful place to hide from the world.
The total area of XXS is 15 sqm with a 10 sqm terrace of exclusive Merbau wood. The pure-style lines create a modern design and a close-to-nature house. The entrance from the terrace has a large window and glass door section which creates both light and space. The façade is clad in z-panel of three different widths and painted in a black hue with Falu rödfärg.
