MUSIC IS PLAYING. MR. CASANOVA 14

“Respect to counter-culture such as movies and music!” Mr. Casanova is a team of two bon vivants. One a bassist with a garage rock and roll band, active in the Japanese underground scene, and the other a DJ that gets over-ground. Hailing from Nagano, the accomplices Keisuke Yamaguchi (hat guy) and Kazumasa Aoki, have created a collection of eyewear, that puts their passion for detail in music, into their shades. We met these 2 stylish cats a few seasons ago in HK, and quickly figured they knew their way around a party and good music! Check out their playlist all month.

放音樂/MUSIC IS PLAYING. JUNKO SHIMADA, GALLERY SIDE 2, TOKYO.

Junko Shimada, owns and operates Gallery Side 2, in Roppongi, Tokyo. She is a very generous woman, always willing to respond to our ‘Urgent’ requests, like the time we first met her at Art Basel Hong Kong, two years ago, and instantly requested an interview with her artist, Takeo Hanazawa. So not Japanese of us! Junko has amazing tastes in art and is not quick to let on that these amazing tastes extend to other parts of arts and culture, like music! We are proud to claim Junko as a very great friend of SPITGAN Magazine, and also, without hesitation, our favorite gallery owner in the world!

放音樂/MUSIC IS PLAYING. SHARON CHIU, FASHION DIRECTOR, NUMERO CHINA.

今個月我們請來法國著名時裝雜誌”NUMERO”中文版的時裝總監Sharon Chiu為Spitgan讀者帶來她的音樂playlist。Sharon從少便熱愛時裝,時裝以外,音樂是她的第二至愛,音樂為她在造型創作上帶來不少靈感。今次她為我們推介的音樂以黑人音樂居多,而且很多都是多年前的作品,因為對她來說,音樂就像時裝般,昔日的比今日的更有靈魂。這亦是她喜愛古著的原因。

除了是雜誌時裝總監,Sharon亦是一名資深的造型師及作者,她的時裝作品可於www.mfaa.asia看到。

Oh yeah ya don’t stop. The music keeps playing the records keep spinning. This month we are pleased to welcome Ms. Sharon Chiu, top stylist and fashion director of Numero China to our exalted alumni of SPITGAN selectors. Sharon is one of China’s most creative and inventive stylists working today.
