yauatcha @ battersea power station
Yauatcha is the gorgeous all-day teahouse and dim sum restaurant run by Alan Yau, the owner of Hakkasan, Britain’s only Michelin-starred Chinese restaurant. Located in Soho, for the Power Station’s exhibition, Yauatcha opened a satelitte outlet in the Pavilion. Queues of gourmands predictably formed, all eager to tuck into eaterie’s 24 varieties of dim sum and wash […]
pavilion by toyo ito @ battersea power station
Toyo Ito, is a Japanese architect with a rep. Known for creating extreme concept buildings, his thing is erecting interactive structures like the Tower Of Winds. Located in Yokohama, by day it looks similar to a stacked cans of beans but by night takes on the form of a tubular graphic equaliser, with lights and reflective surfaces that capture the moods […]
china power station pt. 1 @ battersea power station
Battersea Power Station is doomed. Its roof is gone, its long glass windows shattered, its cavernous heart empty, except for its iron ribs and red bricks. And today, sunshine, long shadows and the queues which have lined up for a last look at an imposing monument to industrialisation before it gets turned into an indoor playground for adults with expense accounts. It takes me 45 […]
the arrival
London is my muse. I can exit an aircraft at 6am in the morning, after a 13 hour flight, a three hour layover and a vicious line of questioning from immigration and still jump in the shower and hit the streets from dusk til dawn every single day until my flight ticket says my number is up. And […]
life is full of stumbling blocks….
Sure, you think you know the Internet like the back of your hand. Fancy yourself a human Google, even. Able to string off URL after URL for almost any topic, eh? Hogwash. Stumbleupon.com is here, and you don’t even know the half. I “stumbled upon” Stumbleupon.com through a friend (cred goes to DJ Mac of […]
victor g gets busy
It’s the year end and our local DJs are certainly getting busy in their bedrooms … making music (what were you thinking, tsk). These days, being able to mix a decent set just doesn’t cut it anymore, you need to be forward thinking enough to want to work your own productions. The best part about it is, […]
it pays to be absolutely drug free
And the results are in…. If you were holding onto your phat pants/piss cup/S&M whip, the wait is over. DJ Mag recently announced the results of its Top 100 DJs Poll, and PvD is #1! Again! Just goes to show that you don’t need sex, drugs and rock ‘n’ roll to be on top of the world. Although I’m sure […]
the genius of gregoire
Just got this in the e-mail, it’s a link to DJ Gregoire Pagnoux’s new “home” mix. Master of intelligent techno, dancefloor pounder at The House every Saturday at Maison and fawned over by many a lass (or so we should assume), here’s where you can listen to the Frenchman’s ambient, home-made bleep fest. http://www.zshare.net/audio/november-rain-mp3.html
