Bo Ningen - Koroshitai Kimochi


'If someone in the 1960's had imagined ('Space: 1999' style) what rock and roll would sound like in 2009, Bo Ningen is what they would have heard in their head.

The four Japanese Londoners are East Electric Psychedelic (the name gives some idea of what they're about) at The Cross Kings and it's the best gig I've seen all year. What with the profoundly cool, effortless onstage wig-outs and head-bending james, they are pretty much the consummate psyche band, while at the same time playing an updated J-Rock template that has elements of kraut-rock, metal, hardcore and funk scratched all over it. That might sound messy on paper but live the disorder is wrought into tight riffs that explode into transcendent a-tonal onslaughts without notice. In its obbession with repetition and the twisted patterns of its ungraspable musical narrative, the set has all the appeal of listening to Amon Duul, Can, Melt-Banana or one of the weirder nights at the Dalston Vortex, but they're the only band around that could capably straddle the words of a dazed double-spread and an ATP stage. It's a hundred times better than what's on their myspace page' -Loud & Quiet

Machete Corridos Song by Rome


In a triumphant return to a classic Mexican folk genre, SA Studios commissioned LA based rapper and hip hop producer Rome to inject some character into the Machete soundtrack through the addition of a timeless Corridos ballad. Recounting the brave or tragic tales of celebrated men and women, Corridos was a prominent means of storytelling and narrating true events before the advent of mass media in Mexico. Passing under the radar of sometimes politically biased media, Corridos was news and stories for the people, by the people. Trejo’s Machete was a Corridos song waiting to be sung, and Rome’s selection adds flavor and history to the hero’s fearless quest for revenge.

LAKAIROMANIA: Lakai Skate and Create 2010


HOW THIS WORKS:
The four teams are made up of a total of six skaters—four pros and two ams.
Each team is given nine days in a warehouse with the same set of obstacles.
Each team is allowed one art director on site.
Each team is assigned one TWS photographer to shoot a feature article for the magazine.
Each team is allowed a film crew to produce a video for skateboarding.com.
The final photo and video product is judged by the TWS edit staff (minus S&C coordinators Skin Phillips and Josh Brooks) on the level of skating, creativity, the use of obstacles, and overall image and video quality.
The winner gets the cover of the magazine and will have a spot reserved in Skate & Create 2011.
