Given everything he’s put out so far, the album will no doubt be a visceral […]

Dr. Martens have linked up with iconic Japanese utilitarian imprint WTAPS to reimagine their 1460 silhouette through the duo’s shared functional – yet rebellious – heritage.  The latest iteration of the 1460 is the penultimate collaboration in Dr. Martens’ 12-part, 60th anniversary celebration of their legendary boot, fusing the most rigorous parts of WTAPS and Dr. Martens aesthetic together for a new strap-heavy edition of the silhouette.

London-based designer Tisloh Danboyi has just unveiled his first piece of jewellry in the form of a new silver pendant necklace titled ‘Love, bites.’ Featuring an intentional separation with use of a comma that makes love the subject of the pendant, the metaphorical play on the conventional ‘love bite’ phrase is the centrepiece of the necklace.

Virginia-born multi-instrumentalist, DJ and producer Stimulator Jones is a rare talent. His music feels set apart from the tireless ebb and flow of trends and therefore timeless. As heard on his debut album, 2018’s Exotic Worlds And Masterful Treasures, that comes largely from his broad spectrum of influences that stretch across the decades and through just about […]
