I really enjoyed the movie (500) days of summer (I know) and the soundtrack too. Somebody came up with an album about Wayne called (500) days of Wayne, where he mixes Wayne's verses with the soundtrack of the movie. It's amazing. Kate is going to be furious when I download the album for free on his website tomorrow. You can also listen to the album on the site. The second track is sick!
This is a well thought documentary, I've never seen any other documentation on that. But I haven't really searched for any. Anyways if you tilt your head up a little bit when you walk in the city, you'll see whats left of some hand painted signs on buildings. I find they still look good even rough up by time. We should start that again.
"Bonobo's first release was in October 1999 with the song "Terrapin"
on the Tru Thoughts compilation When Shapes Join Together. He released
his debut album Animal Magic on Tru Thoughts in 2000. With this album,
completely self-produced and mainly self-instrumented, he became one of
the "new downtempo pioneers" and his chilled, beat-driven music
captivated press as well as many major labels."
Bonobo was added at the last minute for the MEG BOAT this sunday August 1st!TICKETS SOLD AT OFF THE HOOK!
We just received the first delivery of everybody's favorite Australian brand, INSIGHT. There is this amazing body-con dress aptly called the "Great Jones", because it definitely looks like something that Grace Jones would wear! There is also two hot see-through tank tops and a really cool knit cardigan. More coming soon!
"The story of Herschel begins in the early 1900's, in Wick, Scotland. Peter Alexander Cormack, a barrel maker by trade, and his wife Annie packed the belongings of their small home in preparation for the long journey across the Atlantic to Canada. The government of the time was enticing families to immigrate through the homestead program. They gave these families land to farm, to support the growth of the country. The land that Peter and Annie were given saw them settle in the beautiful rolling hills outside of the town of Herschel, whose population today is counted at 30 residents.
Over a century after that move, Peter and Annie's great grandchildren remain in the business of manufacturing. Instead of barrels, backpacks and bags are now created. Herschel Supply Co. was started with the goal of bringing well-designed quality built product to market. Inspiration is drawn from vintage mountaineering, American heritage, world travel and fashion. Herschel reinvents these products with modern shapes, fits and feels, with fine regard for detail. Our product endeavors to compliment the consumer's passion for individuality and personal style in a new way. Herschel is about our past, present and future. We are creating an environment that supports the new generation of fashion forward individuals."
We're proud to be building with the 'new' label. They currently occupy our entrance wall with their summer bag collection.
