Looks like we’ll be putting our noses in some Japanese magazines this weekend. Our homies from Osaka sent us a huuuuge bunch of Ollie Magazines, LUSSW Magazines, Samurai Magazines, Joker Magazines,, Mens Fudge Magazines and other goodies. Along with all of this came also the White Fuctory Collaboration T-Shirt and one of the finest Karaoke Songs we’ve heard, ‘On My Beat’ by BOOWY. Especially if Yoshi is singing it.

We also had an ad in the Brazilian Issue Of VICE Magazine in Japan in collaboration with White Fuctory. We didn’t even have to do the art work aka Japanese Magic!

Thanks SABU, YOSHI, TOSHI & Everyone at DONOBAN and the whole OSAKA click!

Oki-Ni ! ! !

PS. Peep 12 dan Style Warrior Mr. Freeman in the upper left corner striking poses in Ollie Mag!

This is an old one, but got touched as one of our friends told me that this is the best cultural contribution that’s happened during this millennium.

It was as a folded poster in the VICE GUIDE TO HELSINKI. Done by Helsinki’s finest renaissance man, VILUNKI 3000.

Don’t get lost.

It’s the BBQ 2.0, the sequal, bigger, fatter, more waxed than ever. The Taivallahti Schoolyard BBQ will be siiiick.
We’ll have a picnic table, a metal bench and then there’s of course the sweetest 3 stair ledge that Finland offers.
Do the best line and win a nice ticket the fuck outta Finland worth more than 600 EUR. Yes, that’s a travel gift card.
Winter is coming sooner than anyone wishes for and you can fly pretty damn far south with +600 EUROS.

The flyer tells it all! Be there eat a sausage while listening to some good Top Billin music, do a fat line,
collect your flight ticket and go hug a girl.

Never mind the return ticket.

Hola, que tal? Que pasa en la esta noche? Paki cervesas? Si? Otro Mas!!

As you can see, my spanish is a bit rusty but i definitely would come quite well along in the narrow streets of Raval.

UNO POP MAGAZINE did a sweet little feature on Big Baby Jesus CTRL and the Rift Store that’s still going on… Even after the 40 days. Go check it, pick up a UNO mag and go say hey to all the Pakis rocking fresh CTRL gear..

Otro Maaas!!

it was a rainy day filled with dark and hanging clouds. On this rainy day something white was born. It was born under mayhem but remained in CTRL. It was born pure and bright at the WHITEFUCTORY.COM in Japan.

In other plain and simple words. Our collaboration T-Shirt with the brand new concept store / gallery for VICE in Japan called The White Fuctory is finally up for grabs. Our imaginary combined with their vision. Up amongst the Keiichi Nitta tees and other coor stuff.

Aishiteru!

DASH SNOW passed away recently. Loved his work and was always amused about the symbolism in one of his polaroids where a white guy is snorting a line from a black guys dick.

Dash has entered his likes, the young gifted and restless.

RIP

sounds like the nicest place. We just got some editorial in a good mag by the name of Onion from the land down under..

Hall of Fame…

These cats definitely know what they’re talking about, they got all the great shit in the mix, Junior Boys, Merriweather, Ghost Face and it goes on and on…

Blessup Belinda & Onion Magazine!

New York City, May 2009

What might have happened here?

Just developed a roll of film that i took in Japan with my Konica Big Mini. The flicks with that camera always turn out to be good even though i generally suck at taking photos. The grain and colors are nice and that saves my bad composition. Here’s a couple with of my homies…

Free & Ease

Empty streets in Tokyo…

Freeman & ISAO

The camera cost me 50 € from Berlin and it’s the same on as the one Jim Jarmush has in the movie ‘Blue In The Face’. You might remember when he comes to Augies shop and goes on about quitting smoking cigarettes and wants to have a last picture taken with his last cigarette. Last one ever…

Guess that never happened.
