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 was unsure what to expect when me and Sky arrived… and even afterwards I’m still pretty dumbfounded.
Built from the ideas of some key creative minds in particular TADIROCK, this MADE was a space created for the sheer point of CREATING . Creating Art, Creating a message, Creating greatness.
Much like Andy Warhol’s Factory in NYC from the 60’s , this is a place that was built for artists from all around the world to come together and make dreams come true.
A better way to explain it, would be to let the People of Made do the talking –
From their blog – MADE an inspiring place where creative minds from different fields come together. a living platform where they create a vision of something extraordinary and bring it to life.
This space has only been open for about 2 months, and Phil G and Nico Zeh gave us the grand tour .
The aesthetic and functionality of the space as described in the video above are amazing. They actually modelled the foyer entrance after one of my fav movies of all timeStar Wars . A lot of white , boxlike modular walls…
BUT , what catches the eye 1st is the CRAZY CRAZY LIGHTING SYSTEM.
This lighting system is patented, the 1st of its kind. THey wanted to create a lighting system where you could control the mode thru color, a lighting system where a photographer could have 24 hour daylight and shoot with no shadows, and this system is what they came up with.
You can LITERALLY CHANGE EACH light to a different color, or change sections of it, or put them on a loop, all from ONE central control. simply Amazing.
Peep the video below as they let me mess around with the shine.
The space itself, is malleable. Like how Bruce Lee tells his student to “Be Like Water, so is this space.
The walls are movable, the furniture, even the bar can be moved around to suit your creative needs.
The 1st Art installation created and shown at this space was this snowglobe project by Sneaker connoisseur Yoske Nishiumi and photographer Alex Flach, who put their heads together to come up with this extraordinary vision.
A big part of this project, was that the viewer would end up becoming part of the art piece, and Myself and Sky Gellatly got to do just that.
The guys at MADE ended up interviewing myself and sky, picking our brains about the space, about possible ideas that I have that I would like to have come to frution.
Who knows, you guys might see an upcoming blog about the Extraordinary thing I plan to Make in Berlin….

The party as you can imagine was great as shown in the last bloggy blog.
Good Food, interesting people, and I can vouch for the good music.
There was Stuff for all ages – Facepainting for the “kids”, Fotomat and even Balloons ;) Yeah ok. So what. I got convinced to get facepainted on my neck. shut up.
As much fun as the party was, the experience of berlin and chillin in this historic cultural town was even better…
From the moment we got on the plane it was gonna be a good trip. My manager and I got upgraded from coach to First Class Fo FREEZY because Coach got oversold. Its like when racism works in your favor.
1st class is definitely nice… not worth it if I actually had to pay for it, but compared to coach, its another world ;)
The day the block party was supposed to happen got rained out unfortunately, so we turned it into a tourist day. With our friend and fellow Hypebeast blogger Artoo, Phil G from Soto/MADE, and Thomas and Stephan, we got to see the city thru the eyes of the locals.
Kerin Cycle Culture Cafe was an early stop on the West Berlin Side for some coffee…
A quick stop at one of the local record shops – where I of course spent money I shouldn’t …
AND OntoTHE BERLIN WALL
I got my passport Stamped ;) Dork.
Finally, we attempted to check out the new Damien Hirst Show at the museum, but missed it by half an hour. my fault for spending so much time at the record store :( BUT, we did get to see some other small pieces… Some dude name warhol for example ;)
The night before we hit up a spot called BAR 25 by the River that is known for being an all weekend party affair. Beautiful Spot with amazin food…
At this spot, I had the most excellent Weiner Snitzel . Breaded veal I believe. Delicious. and Very German. Like Sprockets.
All of this was great ;) Berlin is a beautiful town, but our last stop there was a place called the MADE creative space, and that was the HIGHLIGHT. That my friends, will be for tomorrows blog….

Here I am, viagra one foot in the old East Berlin, one in the west.
It is a beautiful town and I will recapping my shenanigans here for the rest of this week, as I got to see and do quite a bit.
However, we’ll start with the reason I was out there in the 1st place – The No 74 Block Party! Initially meant to be on May 15th, we had to move it to the 16th due to Rain, BUT the weather gods shined their lights on us and made it a great day regardless….
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 –
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…
Good times were had by all ;) More pics and updates to come
