  • Hinism

    —

    A while back I moblogged the 0 issue of a new magazine called HINISM. Yesterday, I went to Planet 3rd for a latte and some magazine reading (ended up staying there 2 hours), and got a chance to read issue 1. It seems that the magazine is produced by Gallery Wall, which is located in…

  • Dijf Sanders

    While in Shibuya yesterday, I did my regular stop at the Apres-midi Selecao record shop (in the basement of Parco Part 1), and it’s there that I discovered my new favorite record (I ended up buying it, of course). The artist’s name is Dijf Sanders, and I believe he is from Belgium (from what I…

    I’ve shared with you my love for the SAMURAI CHAMPLOO animated series (still as good as ever), but the fun doesn’t stop there. One of the draws of the series is the mix of hip-hop with a traditional samurai setting, and the strong musical ties continue with the launch of Samurai-C Records. I was at…

    After the OK FRED event, Patrick made his way to the Usagi-Chang Night Fever Vol. 0002 (a party organized by Usagi-Chang Records), that was being held at Marz, in Shinjuku’s Kabuki-cho. Check out the post he wrote for a full review of the event, including lots of pics.

    At the OK FRED event last night, fellow blogger Christopher Kobayashi not only moblogged while there (as did quite a few others), he also logged in the coordinates at Tokyo Picturesque. It’s a site where you attach pics you’ve taken with your mobile phone, and it then associates that image with the location on the…

  • MoCo Tokyo

    ,

    I’ve been teasing you recently with news of upcoming projects, and one of them is that I’ve been asked by Harry Wakefield, who runs MoCo Loco (“a web magazine featuring modern contemporary design news and views”), to be editor of the soon-to-be-launched MoCo Tokyo. It’ll be joining other cities like Montreal, San Francisco, and the recently…

  • Educated Community

    —

    Educated Community is a free bilingual (Japanese and English) magazine from New York, “focusing on what’s happening in the street scenes of New York City and Tokyo.” I’m trying to get more info on it, but a lot of the links on the site don’t seem to work properly. I’m wondering if someone in New…
