For a taster of the new artwork i have been working on for adidas and RWD check out http://www.rwdmag.com
Some people may remember the previous series of ‘about to blow’ from MTV, well now series 2 has been taken on by adidas to showcase not just up and coming music artists, but also up and coming athletes.
Late last year i spent a few months working alongside web-developers atticmedia on the new RWDmag.com 2.0 design, now the coding work has finished and the site has finally launched.
The new site is a massive update from the old and brings RWD up to date with web 2.0 functionality. As always the site will contain the latest news, music and videos from the world of garage, grime, hip hop, R&B, electro, funky, indie and more. It will continue to bring you the latest fashion, gadgets and games from the across the UK and more importantly the globe⦠only the sections will be bigger and better.
The design of the site changes depending on wherabouts you navigate to, to suit the usersĀ music tastes, aswell as for lifestyle options such as fashion and gadgets.
I was recently asked to perform a ‘James Bond VJ Set’ at Cargo in for the christmas party of a selection of companies including RWD, Twice as Nice, Atticmedia, BDP media and LRG. For this i cut up clips from a number of old james bond films and combined them with existing VJ clips, the result was something quite different and interesting. The whole night was also very enjoyable on the whole, all about the James Bond moonraker fancy dress!
We were lucky enough to be asked to VJ for RWD in stereo taking place at Cargo, London, the ideal setting for this night of live performances by a choice selection of UK talent. This time round the stage was graced by grime godfather Wiley as well as Ghetto, Alex Mills, Ny, Smasher, The Thirst, Joe Driscoll and more. Plus the stage was stormed by a selection of ‘grime allstars’ including Jammer, Chipmunk and Skepta and we played records alongside bassline/grime DJ Dexplicit, journalist/blogger Chantelle Fiddy and RWD editor Hattie Collins. The event was filmed by MTV Base for Trevor Nelson’s show The Lick:
