Ahhhh shiiiit


So I was cruising through Sydney, with a new pair of jeans in hand, and not a care in the world, humming along to some oldskool Beastie Boys shit... when I spied through the window of a store, some silver kicks.  Now those who know me, know that im a pretty big fan of most fresh kicks... However this wasn't any store.. it was Hugo Boss, and these silver kicks looked pretty fucking similar to some Supra shoes that dropped over 2 years ago... and have been refined a couple of times. 

Here we have "Boss" by Hugo Boss


vs. 


Supra Skytop


Dior also had some silver/gold shoes a little while ago. The point is, Hugo Boss need to lift their shit. Stick to suits/smoking-jackets/business shirts.... You don't see Chad Muska @ Supra trying to make the ultimate corporate power suit do you?. Because up close those "Boss" kicks were not worth the $600 price tag. 

In other news Metronomy made a cool film clip to their track 'A thing for me'




Rant Over.

Metronomy gets the remix treatment from Anoraak

©2007-2008 ~shecro
Hey yall
Its selecta reporting from the Indian subcontinent. Since i arrived here on the 21st this country has become one of the 20 most dangerous in the world. With a statistic of more people being killed by Jihadis in the last 12 months than anywhere else in the world. Pretty nuts.

My companero is leaving early because of this fact, but i still have work to do. ie listen to as much bad bollywood music as possible, beat konducta style.


ANyway, to the music. I just logged on today for the first time in a while and really needed to get a fat hit of some metronomy beats. and turns out anoraak gave them the RMX treatment. metronomy are by far my chocie for the best group in the world in the last 12 months. Heartbreaker is amazing, as well as every other track off the album. they are coming to Australia for a string of dates mid January, including the Sydney festival, which i will unfortunately miss out on.

HEy to everyone back home, miss you all

ANyways, here it is
