Videos We Love :: Visions of Visionaries – Jeff Staple | MADE
Jeff Staple – MADE | Loved Staple’s message regarding creativity, ephemeral information and the status quo of the fashion + editorial game in his recent interview for MADE. I couldn’t agree more with his views on the struggle to be creative within the confines of deadlines, and his recent questioning on the “need” to bring more fashion into the world. Def worth a few minutes of your time…
Mixes We Love :: SFNY Mamabear on PropsRadio
To get you amped for the upcoming Massive Selector SFNY party, the good people at PropsRadio are posting mixes by all of the DJs who will be playing that night. This mix by Mamabear is just great. There are songs I don’t know but love and some that I play in many of my sets, so it comes highly recommended. Check out this interview with MamaBear & get to know her a bit. If you’re in NY on September 19th, make sure to RSVP for this end-of-summer rooftop jam! – Moni Pineda
