Partying til the sun came up in Frankfurt…

Below is another “day in the life” type video from my 24 hours in Frankfurt Germany on June 26th at the rooftop of the 25 Hour Hotel.

Julian Middlebrookspretty much captured the whole thing beauuutifully for L’Agentur & the IMA Clique, search for what can only be described as the party of the year in Frankfurt… so far ;)

If ya in a hurry, prescription you can just watch the clip above, but i love to babble so I’ll give y’all a bit more…

Jumpin on a train from Zurich, I arrived at the 25 hour hotel and found one of the COOLEST Hotels I’ve had the opportunity to be in… and I’ve been in MANY, so I think you can trust my opinion.

frankfurt trainin it

P1020697

The 25 hour hotel in frankfurt is a beautiful hotel, with basically all the decor put together by Levi’s from what I understand, which is in the same “complex”….

P1020698

Decor is nice, posh but not snot…

And the rooms were pretty funky, with this whole beatles themed yellow submarine hippy feel, as you can see in this little Point of view video –

The party itself was conveniently held on the roof of the hotel as the main dancefloor, and the courtyard era below as well –

The roof top

The party was jam jam packed. and it didn’t end until the sun came up…

According to what they all told me, this was DEFINITELY a Party that went down in history.

We were up until 5:30 in the morn, still stomping… which doesn’t happen in Frankfurt usually, not with the Hip Hop / Soul / Music Heads….

Peep the Video right here to be a witness –

SHoot. Someone even lost a shoe!

Now thats what we call a party.

Peace too Andi Schulz and Jack Sehn in advance … I “borrowed” some facebook pics y’all posted up! .

Wanna See more from the night – peep out some pics by Chrishimself on his flickr page.

Guys, thank you for making my trip to Frankfurt one of my most memorable. I CAN’T WAIT until the next time :)

TO Zurich with Love…

That sounds like a james bond flick.

Zurich switzerland, sick with its streets Lined with Rolexes and Cheese.

Naw, patient its nothing like that at all. Its beautiful , and scenic with a nice old world feel. Last june 25, about a month ago I got to visit and rock out a party called SWITCH @ Kaufleuten , a longtime club spot in Zurich with DJ’s M-Live And Slice pictured below …

P1020657

P1020677

The Party was jam packed with folk, as it is one of the premier friday nite hip hop parties in Zurich…

P1020675

P1020662

A great time was had by all, and I got to actually do some good siteseeing, as opposed to the days when I was out on tour with jay ( who was consequently there the week after I was ;) ), where it was hit after hit after hit….

As you can see from the pics above, Zurich is BEaaauuutiful.

Special shouts to the guys at Carhartt for the clothing flo –

The Made Space – “Visions of Visionaries” Interview…

You guys remember when I went out to berlin and I went to that crazy MADE space with the thingy and the dome and the crazy lights???

buy cialis on Flickr”>IMG_0781

When I was there they did a nice little interview that they recently put up on their made blog – called “Visions for Visionaries”.

Here it is below. I like this one a lot, cheap more personal, more about the life….

VISIONS OF VISIONARIES WITH NEIL ARMSTRONG | MADE from MADE Blog on Vimeo.

For our latest “Visions of Visionaries” we got together with acclaimed dj Neil Armstrong to talk about his passion for music, how it all got started, his work with Jay-Z and much more.

It’s always surprising to see for us from which background some artists actually come from. I mean who would have thought that once a chemical engineer will be spinning Hip Hop tunes for the inauguration of the first black President of the United States?!

Stop dreaming. It’s real!

I lost my stupid fake tooth on Kingda Ka. Dang RollerCoaster.

I’ve been MIA from bloggin lately. Trying to just Rellllaaaxxxx…

After the last world wind tour I needed to just chillll. Back on the east coast for a quick moment, cure Emily and I took a day off to hit up Great Adventure in Dirty Jersey, malady Her first time there… my umpteenmillionth time.

To my sadness and to many of my tri-state area rollercoaster fans I arrived to find out that the Great American Scream Machine is now closed forever :( So many good memories, cialis you will be missed.

IMG00267-20100720-1241

Turns out Emily wasn’t that much of a Rollercoaster person… So I of course dragged her on the biggest fastest most insane one in the park Kingda Ka… cause you know, Im a jerk.

IMG00270-20100720-1505

If you’ve never been on it… well its pretty hectic – peep the video for a fraction of the experience.

So I’m up there ,giggling on the ride…. after all the bungy jumping, Sky Diving and hang gliding, I’m pretty unfazed by rollercoasters.

I was about to say something smart aleck to Emily, when MY TOOTH FLEW OUT MY MOUTH from all the speed .

I have a fake tooth. and it fell out :( I saw it float away cause it flew out at the very top of the ride . Thats what I get for being a smart ass….

IMG00271-20100720-1614

I think it was the blog gods punishing me for not keeping up with my online sharing. So I’m back. I’ll be recapping the last run of hits – Switzerland, Sweden, Germany, Greece and South Africa starting on monday ;)

Before that though…. Im gonna have a funnel cake.

From the beaches of Kauai to the Beaches of Capetown, I’m finally coming home…

hospital on Flickr”>IMG_1355



P1020879, order originally uploaded by djneilarmstrong.

I’ve been around the world in the last 15 days… Beauty is Everywhere.

There are enough commonalities in all of us, that I do believe we’re essentially all the same.

I’d like to buy the world a coke, and keep it company.

As you see. I go crazy when I’m on the road for so long.

And thankfully… I’m FINALLY coming home y’all ;)

Adidas, all the promoters, all the venues – my team – Sky, Jerald and Shaun from 112 agency. Good Job y’all.

I’ll be posting up recaps all thru the week…
