A few months back shots of Kanye West’s footwear collab with Louis Vuitton circled the web but not until now has the LV Yeezy been observed under such great light. (Literally)
Undeniably the best end result of any collab Kanye has worked on, there’s a pair of shoes for everyone from the bright rave house kid to the late 20 something monotoned burb living bandit.
Mixing things up High Snobiety enlisted the help of German trigger finger Daniela Muller-Brunke to come shed some new light on the iconic shoewear line. And the best part is she got super psychy and projected Louis Vuitton’s logos in all different colours to make up the background which intern looked insane.
What will Yeezy do next?
Kyp Malone, arguably TV On the Radio’s most recognisable member, is going solo. Kyp plans to release his debut LP this Spring under the moniker of “Rain Machine.”
Funnily enough Kyp decided to roll with “Rain Machine” as he wasn’t really feeling how his character combination given to him at birth looked on a merch T;
“I’ve been writing and recording songs alone since I moved to NYC in 2000, at first alone because I didn’t know anyone, then through the years by choice because of a particular freedom that going it alone afforded. I’ve played regularly since then, at first under the name Black Lights until some kids in Texas told me they were already using that name. Then under my own name but I didn’t like how “Kyp Malone” looked on mock ups of t-shirts and fliers, thus Rain Machine.”
What should we expect music wise?
“A nearly full spectrum of frequencies audible to the human ear – a reflection of a variety of emotions and situations real and imagined, some rhythm and some rhyme.”
Cool but… Why is should I listen to it?
“People might be surprised that anyone is still working in a long format recorded medium considering the economic climate, current trends in dissemination and consumption, i.e. the internet and mp3 players. There is so much work being produced in this moment, in this, the age of readily available prosumer recording equipment and an internet hungry for content, not to mention the mountains of old songs that exist for most listeners who, in a lifetime, will only skim the surface of that magnificent library. People might be surprised that, with all that weighing against it, buying and listening to this album will be more than just pleasurable, more than just horizon expanding. This record will bring the listener to a higher level of consciousness, that peace and happiness are attainable through bathing in its sounds…LOL!!! Really though, I had a great time making this record and I hope listeners enjoy it.”
