2014, some reintroduction is in order, courtesy of Balling on A budget

Even when I was with Jay-z, thumb a lot of the current social media environment was still in its infancy. I’ve gained a lot of new followers on Facebook, for sale twitter, instagram who don’t really know all my history.

To start off 2014 right, allow me to reintroduce myself courtesy of http://www.ballinonabudget.tv , my folk from the Land Down Under. I was there in Australia recently for adidas and the Brooklyn nets, but I actually did this interview 2 years ago while I was in town for carbon Festival.

Just FYI – we got to do this interview with the beautiful gold coast in the background…

For Heineken’s #DROPPED campaign, yours truly ended up picking something special for the special winner of the Heineken Voyage campaign.

Click the link, or see the video below…

Heineken is putting one of y’all on a voyage , and Hypebeast has your essentials for the trip #DROPPED

Boys and girls – I’ve been lucky enough to be involved in helping launch the Heineken Voyage . What is that exactly??

From the Website –

Heineken Voyage, the fifth chapter of Heineken’s global Legends campaign. Heineken will search the globe for four men who embody the “Legendary Traveler” and send them on voyages around the world to challenge them to travel outside their comfort zone. One of these travelers will be from the US.

A true “Man of the World” is never a tourist, but rather knows how to travel with finesse. This concept of voyaging with purpose – being able to be “Dropped” anywhere in the world and incept a legendary journey – is at the core of Heineken‘s latest global adventure program. Packing heavy isn’t the look. Instead, discerning globetrotters bring a select set of objects with them on their trips, guaranteed to enhance their memories no matter where they end up. Stories are woven not just by being in the right place at the right time, but also through open–minded preparedness. For Heineken’s #DROPPED program, the international brand’s panel of experts got together over dinner in New York City to pick out their travel essentials, all of which are to be chronicled in more detail in upcoming vignettes exclusive to Hypebeast. Over the next six days one vignette featuring each expert will drop each day including Jon Buscemi, Dao-Yi Chow, Richard Martin, DJ Neil Armstrong, Marcus Troy and Jonathon Mannion. They will talk about travel, offer travel tips as well as chose travel essentials including everything from a large format film camera and audio recorder for chronicling adventures to a cheeky bathing suit, tuxedo and waterproof driving moccasins to ensure ultimate accessorizing, regardless of what continent it’s taking place on.

The Heineken Dropped campaign is a global initiative to launch the Heineken Voyage.

San Fran love from Mixcrate.com , Fully Laced, No Rival, Adapt and Breezy Excursion

Dj Neil Armstrong interview for Mixcrate.com from OpenLineMedia on Vimeo.

One of the Last times I was out in the bay I linked up with the cats from Mixcrate.com and chopped it up about with Marc “Owl Boogie” Aure at Fully Laced fashion boutique in San Francisco to discuss what young dj’s need to do in order to succeed in the music industry.

As stupid as my expression is for the still that vimeo used to represent the video, buy viagra the interview is still pretty helpful I think for those who are aspiring for more… so don’t use my strange grill piece to judge the content of the video please ;)

Much props 1st off to Romedigs and Jerome Palencia for puttin the vid together for the site.

ALSO much props to Fully Laced, find No Rival, Adapt Clothing, and Breezy Excursion for the Gear Flow.

For my cali folk, especially the Yay Area supa Giant’s fans , these guys put out a lot of stuff to show how you put on for your city…

Much love to Fully Laced for their dope shop at the top of a foggy hill in an area of SF I had never been to before ;)

They have my mixtapes for sale at the Spot, by the way ;)

If you are in the bay area, make sure to make this a must visit destination spot for the snap back hats, collectibles, and dope gear (and dope mixtapes!!!) …

Check out my swag yo, I chill out wit ballplayers – The Rookie photoshoot….

Since I think 2006 one of my all time favorite gigs has been the NBA Rookie PhotoShoot.

Why?? Because I get to chillout and play music all day for the future stars of professional Basketball. Thats me and that dude from the supersonic’s Durant something or other when he was a rookie.

cure on Flickr”> durant_and_neil

Last year I had to miss it because I was running around the world with Mr. Carter, view but this year I wasn’t going to miss the festivities…

In the past years it tends to be fun, purchase and what people seem to easily forget, is that most of these rookies are just kids… probably cause they’re about 20 feet taller then the average person.

I needed to stand on a chair to be on eye level with them. Stupid tall people.

Being that these guys are Huge Kids, they’re favorite songs are the current slurry of hits – In this case, I played Teach them how to Dougie about 5 times, and of course all the southern slang I had in my computer…

When those songs hit… well, the players start whylin out.

The top Cutup of this squad, was DeMarcus Cousins, a gold star to john wall too. Wouldn’t be suprised if he ends up on Dancing with the stars when he retires…

THEN, its usually a quick step away to them wanting to “Learn” How to DJ… or at least… Look like they know how to DJ.

YEAH, I LOOK LIKE A LITTLE PERSON. SHUT DA HELL UP.

Anyways, it always turns into a hot mess….

This situation usually ends up getting some “Real NBA News Coverage” –

The folk over at http://dimemag.com/put this one up –

And of course, I get to interact and meet with the future players of the NBA.

One person in particular that was cool to meet was Jeremy Lin , who is I’m pretty sure… the 1st Asian American to play for the NBA.

For the most part, its him and a bunch of black dudes…. Yeah, I can relate to that.

Still, I’m a fan of the game and the players and their bright futures… so yes I got some autographs and flicks, and got to share my craft with them…

A fun as watching them DJ was… this is what they make the big bucks for… ballin.

Until Next year , good luck to you rookies in the upcoming year!

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 ;)

capsule on Flickr”> P1020703

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.

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”….

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

PEACE TO DJ Passion who has a supa dope style and is up on some other stuff…

Peace to Yves Hoffman, L’Agentur & the IMA Clique for bringing me out!

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 :)

The New Zealand Wrapup

diagnosis on Flickr”>

Yes Yes, healing When I went to New Zealand , diagnosis I definitely felt like a king for a day, thanks to the good folk at adidas, Show Room 22, and Frank and Ivy Liew of Qubic (http://www.qubicstore.com/) and quarters.

From the moment I got off the plane the new zealand Hospitality was imminent , with a nice hand written welcome note and a few gifts ,including the local Rugby Team ALL BLACKS jersey and a boxset of New Zealand Music Artist hits, which I’ve gladly added to my music collection.

i got to do it all it seemed, from Bungy Jumping, to Interviews, to good eats, to site seeing and Party Rocking…

It was ALL captured by NICELY here by frank liew and qubic, directed by Sean Wallace. Another “Day in the Life” type video, with a lot more in depth interviewing and a really good look at what its like for me on the road….

In fact, I had 2 GROUPS of cameras following me, as I made the LATE NIGHT NEWS on TVNZ in their showbiz section…

For those planning a Next GREAT Trip, I would highly suggest New Zealand…

Their Humor is amazin – as we all know from FLIGHT of the Concords and their bungy jumping – look at how their bathrooms look, and their “waiver sheet” , which they call a “toe tag”. HILARIOUS.

The food is pretty dang tasty – they even have REAL ACAI, like the stuff down in Brazil, not that American Crap. This is the only other place I’ve seen this stuff served Proper.They got proper meat pies (pause) and of course there is Burger Fuel, which I think gives In & Out a run for their money as far as Burgers go…

They got great stores like Qubic and Quarters for your street wear needs –

They even got Benecio Del Toro Selling ICe cream out there. COME ON. How crazy is that.

They got great local artists like David Dallas holding it down over there ON a global scale , as his work has been blogged up on Kanye Wests site.

SHOOT – I even ran into STEVE AOKI , our first meeting , A NY and LA AUCKLAND Connection –

As you can imagine, I can’t wait until I get to hit the other side of the world again… and I suggest that y’all make New Zealand a Destination on YOUR world tour …

Until the next time ;)

Mahfia.com X 5 and A Dime X Mr Armstrong interview time…

Another DREAM COME TRUE, that I never knew I was supposed to even dream. Yeah, I’m geeked out. I was in a video with Han Solo dammit.

from the press release ”

adidas Originals presents the Star Wars™ Cantina 2010:
The most Original place to watch the 2010 FIFA World Cup™

Herzogenaurach, June 1st, 2010 – The latest instalment of the 2010 Originals campaign, “The Street Where Originality Lives,” combines Star Wars, adidas and the world’s largest sporting event in a cinematic first that takes the 2010 FIFA World Cup™ to a whole new galaxy. The film is a creative re-edit of one of the most famous Star Wars movie scenes – the Mos Eisley Cantina on Tatooine – and features David Beckham, Franz Beckenbauer, Snoop Dogg, Noel Gallagher, Ian Brown, Ciara, Jay Baruchel, Daft Punk and DJ Neil Armstrong, not to mention Han Solo, Chewbacca, C-3P0 and Obi-Wan Kenobi. This unique film was created as a result of a close partnership with Lucasfilm Ltd.

“The theme of the 2010 Originals campaign is a neighborhood of originality,” explained Tom Ramsden, Global Director of Communications, adidas Originals. “It brings together all elements of adidas Originals and the diverse people who wear it – artists, athletes, musicians, skaters and so on all in one place, doing what they love to do. So when we thought about how to best present adidas’ partnerships with Star Wars and the 2010 FIFA World Cup™, we immediately thought of temporarily turning the Mos Eisley Cantina into a place to watch some football and invite some friends along. The result is a truly unique, original film.”

On this street Torstrasse, a bunch of stores got together and threw a honest to goodness Block Party, Flying myself in alongside Berlins own modselektor . Folk of all types came thru, from kiddies to young hipsters, to grandmamas and papas.

A bunch of brands were present and accounted for – Pauls Boutique, Soto, UndPlus Collabroom, Oh Lalaaa and Uslu Airlines.

Overall it was an amazing event, as captured here by Highsnobiety –

Pics from the event as captured by No 74 are here.

The Party got CARRAZY when Modselktor got on, and ended with a massive Pillow / Feather Fight…

AND THEN… AFTER THE SHOW it’s the AFTERPARTY….

Well. In this case, it was a PRE PARTY, as the party was moved to the next day and the afterparty stayed the same on May 15th.

Thrown by Soto and Highsnobiety at this spot called weekend which was on the 15th floor of a buildin…

Dj Neil Armstrong X Jeff Staple : ” Across rue de Charonne” (Paris)

DJ Neil Armstrong X Jeff Staple: ‘Across rue de Charonne’ from R+I creative on Vimeo.

Last February 27th 2009, store on a chance meeting out in Paris, I ended up getting interviewed guerilla style walking around Paris by Jeff Staple, with the fellas from brandrmx.com at the helm.

One take, 2 cameras, and very good editing to tell the tale of what is coming up next for Neil Armstrong.

On a side note, much props to Jeff Staple, who has been there pretty much since I’ve been around. Jeff created my crews first logo, and was essentially my First Sponsor. Funny how time flies…

Description from the BrandRMX guys –
