That Guy - Electrocardiogram

That Guy

Underground Toronto based DJ that has some seriously chill house and electro mixes. We are hoping to hear more from him soon.


Electrocardiogram I

Electrocardiogram II

Supervision by Eun-Gyeong Gwon


One of the niftiest gadgets we have seen in a while. Not only is the design impeccable but it is also incredibly useful. "The electronic budget diary scans receipts, charts money coming in/out, talks to your bank, and gives you monthly expense details so you can balance your finances more effectively - or for most people, at all. The display doubles as a touchscreen and comes with a stylus so you can manage your monies the old fashioned way too." - Image and information courtesy of the Yanko Design website.

Focus On: Revolve Clothing


Although rLie only has experience with Revolve's online boutique we have heard good things about their flagship west coast store as well. As far as their online store - apart from having pieces that you can't find anywhere else at excellent prices their customer service is second to none. Offering free shipping and returns to many locations Revolve makes online shopping a breeze. Image courtesy of the Revolve Clothing website.

Diesel Barboy

We saw these shoes and stopped in our tracks. From the craftsmanship to the design to the colour these are the perfect shoes. Diesel has accomplished that which only age old Mallorcan artisans can.

South African Supercar

It might be the homeland bias for this editor - or perhaps the fact that the Rossion Q1 does 0-60 in 3.3 seconds. Either way South Africa's first supercar is undoubtedly a majestic machine, not to mention all of this is accomplished for under a hundred grand. Find out more about the company and the car here. All we can say is Yebo.

Dj Deckstream


Although Japan is home to many talented musicians they rarely get worldwide acclaim for their work. Dj Deckstream just might be changing that. With his own unique sound and collaborations with some of todays top artists, including Lupe Fiasco, he reminds us of an early Pharrell Williams. Check out his brilliant album Soundtracks and keep and eye out for his next album dropping soon. More here.

Waltz With Bashir


Beautifully composed film where the animation actually acts to enhance the imagery as opposed to take away from it. Definitely one of the most interesting films of 2008. More information here.

Estudio Mariscal

Estudio Mariscal did phenomenal work on this H&M store in Barcelona. They transformed the normally bland "big box" retailer feel of H&M into a chic looking designer boutique. Images can be found here.
