放音樂/MUSIC IS PLAYING. APRIL WALKER, WALKERWEAR.

嘩啦!我們非常榮幸請到街頭品牌之母April Walker為今個月的Spitgan playlist的嘉賓。不認識April Walker是何方神聖但熱愛街頭文化的人士,是時候花點時間去惡補一下歷史。April Walker是90年代經典街頭時裝品牌Walker Wear的創辦人,她的設計在當年的嘻哈黃金年代大受歡迎,多位著名的嘻哈樂手均不時穿著她的設計演出,品牌在當時的次文化圈中扮演著一個重要的角色,並且有著一定的影響力。識英雄重英雄,我們花了一些時間把這位半隱退的元老找出來。April Walker被Spitgan的誠意打動,為表示對我們的認同,於是答應出任今個月音樂playlist的嘉賓,與我們分享她極具品味的音樂選擇。這只是冰山一角,spitgan還有更多關於她與Walker Wear的精彩內容佈導,大家密切留意。

放音樂/MUSIC IS PLAYING. BY FINE ARTIST, TAKEO HANAZAWA.

今個月有來自日本的藝術家Takeo Hanazawa我們挑選了15首他喜愛的歌曲作品。這位深受街頭文化及音樂影響的年輕藝術家,其作品風格幽默而充滿玩味,雖然有時甚至會予人不正經的感覺,但作品背後卻其實蘊含了深厚的街頭文化精髓。他的作品都是一些充滿力量的語言,就像他喜愛的音樂般,觸動人心。

他的代理公司為www.galleryside2.net // Spitgan與他做了一個專訪,在即將出版的第三期刊出,大家密切留意。

Get on down, Takeo! This month we are blessed with musical selections from the young and talented Japanese artist, Takeo Hanazawa! Takeo wears his musical influences on his sleeve. Google his paintings, sculptures, and artwork titles! We at SPITGAN dig his whimsical, irreverent style. Don’t write off the man’s work as all play, there are serious messages embedded within the pop culture references. These speak powerfully, like the music that inspires him. One.

Takeo Hanazawa’s work is represented by the great people at : www.galleryside2.net // SPITGAN will have the exclusive interview coming with issue #3!
