We recently unveiled our latest creation in the labs, our new Waves Tee.
Waves is our most complicated design to date, especially because of how many rounds it took to get it just right. The further you are from the shirt, the more coherent the design becomes, making this tee a head turner for sure. Our new season includes the woven label at the bottom and slightly thicker shirts. Enjoy this one!
I’ve been following the beatport music awards for the last couple years and it’s an excellent way to get familiar with who’s hot and who’s not in the electronic music industry. Sometimes unknown artists, remixers, producers, and DJ’s find themselves at the top of the charts exposing them to the rest of electronic music world. It’s a large world and Beatport aims to select the latest and greatest talent for the last year.
From their website — “The Beatport Music Awards aims to recognize electronic music talent. With nominees based solely on Beatport sales data from March 2009 – March 2010, the awards are broken down by music genre.
There are 36 categories altogether: Best Artists (separated into 18 genres), and Best Track (17 genres, with both originals and remixes), with a final open question asking the public to name the ‘most influential, relevant and forward-thinking person in electronic music over the past 12 months’.
Voting closes on May 19th 2010, with the winners announced on or around May 27th.
Please note: voting is currently not compatible with Internet Explorer 8. Please cast your vote using Internet Explorer 7, Firefox, Chrome, Safari, or Opera.”
If you haven’t had the chance to go to Miami for the WMC and you are a electronic music fan, you are probably missing out one of, if not the, biggest yearly event to happen. DJs and artists such as Deadmau5, David Guetta, Armin Van Buren (just to name a few) show up to Miami to throw down their latest and greatest sets for the world to hear. We went last year and the music, stars, and people all lived up to their expectations. Not to mention, the opportunity to see international superstar DJ’s, walking around and not behind the decks is out of this world…
Not too many surprises this year. I’ve been following La Roux for a while and I knew that their beats would find their way into mainstream following their pop single Bulletproof. Britney Spears hitting the charts was a surprise, Lady Gaga continuing to move up the chain in the dance world, and David Guetta still doing his thing while producing for Black Eyed Peas…
