In the nick of time
I’ve been wanting to see Juergen Teller’s Woo! exhibition for longer than I can remember. I finally made my way over there last Saturday, on the show’s penultimate day. When I got there I was greeted with a larger-than-life, quite literally in-your-face shot of Vivienne Westwood’s vagina (of which I’ve spared you the evidence). Despite this slightly…

For the love of coffee
It’s no secret that piping-hot, thick-as-tar coffee is the way to my heart (well, it sure isn’t now). So when important people in our lives do something so little, yet so thoughtful – like hunt down one of few remaining books for you – you can’t help but serve them another helping of affection.

The makings of a wonderful Christmas…

Last week I was back in Berlin and despite being sorely disappointed by the lack of European sunshine, I discovered something, or rather someone, on my final day who injected more than a few heart-warming rays into my trip. The person responsible? Russia’s finest export, minimal tech producer Andrey Pushkarev. In a controversial switch from…

Chuckie & That Bass
Quite frankly, if you haven’t heard it, where have you been? DJ Chuckie (aka Clyde Narain) and duo LMFAO seem intent on taking the world by storm with their super catchy Let The Bass Kick In. Originally released in Italy in 2008, ‘Part 2’ officially hit the UK shelves last Monday. Chris Moyles and the…

Bimbo Jones Puts The Party Into Lott’s Mama Do
Straying from house and into slightly foreign territory, I’m going to stick my neck out and say I like Pixie Lott’s recent chart stormer Mama Do. However with what can only be described as eclectic taste, and although not a music snob; it’s got to be UK mixmasters Bimbo Jones’s impressive revamp. I heard it…

The End…of London’s club scene?
Following the announcement The End is to close in January 2009; the ill fate of four more London clubs has been sealed. Supposedly some of the glitziest clubs of London (and regular hang outs to C-list celebrities), Café Royal, Paper, Dolce and Chinawhite now add to the list of clubs to close. In January this…
