Robert Johnson Book Release - 13 Years of Club Culture
The name Robert Johnson can serve as an reliable tool to get a feeling about people’s taste for music. The older ones and jazz lovers will have the melodies of Mississippi’s blues legend Robert Johnson in their head, the younger generation that found their passion for music in the 90’s techno and house clubs, will come with associations like “wooden dance floor”, “sunrise over some abandonat industrial port at the Main”, “infinite after-hours” and a “stetic flow of high quality electronic music.”
The club Robert Johnson is an uniqueness. While he was crowned to one of the best clubs, over all the years it managed to maintain a familiar and not agitated atmosphere. A relaxed crowd of people that are not to hip to dance and to smug to have a fun night out. We already introduced Ata to you and because we are lovers of books that are made with passion we want you to take a look at Come on in my kitchen - a book that captures the mythos Robert Johnson from it’s very beginning until today.
Watch the fantastic video for a new Lauer track 70000ac made by Frankfurt based artist Holger Wüst. The video is compiled of pictures from the German movie Die flambierte Frau from 1983 which match the eighties vibe of the track is perfectly. The track is part of the up and coming debut album of (Philip) Lauer named Philips.
The Kaviar Gauche finale. The beautiful dresses in ivory coloured silk, the voluminous organza skirts and sheer blouses worked so well with the models’ sleek hair, white lashes and red lips.
The Mercedes-Benz Fashion Week Berlin started this morning and I’m looking forward to the next days which will be packed with shows, presentations and parties! Amongst them my favourites: Vladimir Karaleev, Hien Le, Kaviar Gauche, Lala Berlin and Issever Bahri. Neither will I miss the Soto x Stussy x Holden party at Flamingo tonight nor the Broken Hearts Club tomorrow!
Handwritten, hand sketched and closely looked over: The Berlin Fashionweek PhotodiaryTM provides glimpses behind the scenes of the Berlin Fashion Week - photographed in an “unprettified”, lifelike, and analog style:
Models without make-up, an audience full of expectations, Klaus Wowereit kidding with Marc Jacobs, beautiful women on the catwalk, but also left behind rubbish in the foyer or anti-consumption graffiti on the way to the show. In this book seven photographers give us subjective snapshots of the Berlin Fashion Week in July 2011 - and thus the feeling of having been there in person.
