A Visit to the Made Space in Berlin…

purchase on Flickr”>IMG_0758

Our last day in Berlin, and we saved the best for last.

Phil G from Soto invited us to this space after he was done blowin up a ton of balloons with highsnobiety’s Dave .

soto

A space thats is called MADE.

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 –

MADE trailer from MADE Blog on Vimeo.

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.

IMG_0754

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.

Snowglobe Project by Alex Flach and Yoske Nishiumi @ MADE from MADE Blog on Vimeo.

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….

Last few weeks were busy ones. Djed a bunch. Flew Last few weeks were busy ones. Djed a bunch. Flew a bunch - Japan to Hawaii to Tampa/st petersburg to Austin to San Antonio to NYC and back to Japan. Celebrated my mom's 82 bday with her. And now... Back with the little lady @babylilisworld.  And now I'm gearing up to do it all over again.
The intruders - > @saadiqmoves x @qtip Get involve The intruders - > @saadiqmoves x @qtip Get involved  Many of ya'll have heard my mixtape series 'original', which connect the original samples to their hip hop counterparts. That mixtape series is over 20 years old now, which is insane.  I used to do a live version of the mixtape, but with all 12s. Now that I'm spinning #45s more to save my back, I been working on live routines using the more compact format, this happens to be one that also honors our mothers.  Today is my mom's bday. Over time I've probably missed  many of them because I was out on the road, and later I was trying to build my own family.  But I am well aware that I have a very  finite number of them left to spend with her, and I think subconsciously I've been able to spend maybe the last 4 or 5 with her.  Anyway mom's, I dedicate this little original sample #45 routine to you. Happy birthday.  This is a #tbt to Mother's day, a rare moment when my mom was able to spend mother's day with both me and my sister.  Now... Lord knows I'm not a big dude. I'm 5'7 on a good day. If I was on these dating apps I would be cooked.  But when I stand next to my mother I look like how I look like standing next to an @nba player lol.  #tbt, I got to do a very very cool mother's day event this year at @kiwami.nyc  they did a mother's day omakase. Sooooo I was multitasking like crazy.  Playing #citypop and boogie, while keeping the @nyknicks game on because we were whooping the @sixers lovely, while also eating and celebrating my mom.  Multitasking baby.
Did some damage to my wallet in Austin. Filled so Did some damage to my wallet in Austin.  Filled some  gaps in my hip hop #7inch #45s at @waterloorecords.  Scroll left to see what was found.  Whats my favorite word??  #vinyldj #hiphop #originalsample

Before I did that though, I went back in time to relive my childhood  and watched the @transformersofficial 40th anniversary movie theater re-release in #4DX, so it was like watching the movie in a Rollercoaster.  And who better to take this trip down memory lane with then my old #dj crew the 5TH PLATOON @djrolirho and DJDADDYDOG.  Just FYI - IT WAS DJ DADDY DOG'S BIRTHDAY, so everybody sing happy birthday now por favor!  I brought my #optimusprime popcorn bucket. Daddy dog called me a geek when I raised it triumphantly.

For my real #diggininthecrates #vinylcollectors wh For my real #diggininthecrates #vinylcollectors who escape the confines of their desk and computer screen and online shopping and get out there in the wild, searching for buried treasure.  Do ya'll know this #allvinyl spot?  It's in St. Petersburg FL, and if you can believe it all the scenes  shown here come from the same location. (they have 2). Rows and rows and stacks and stacks of records, audio equipment etc etc.  Pretty amazing. Watch the store hours because this one is different then then the other location located close by (it's closed on certain days while the other is 7 days a week (I think don't quote me).  This is of course... @bananas_records , the warehouse location.  In one of the buildings for this spot, the 45s are actually alphabetized. In the other section - the actual warehouse - , we got the free for all, chaotic hoarder situation that some of us actually love because we're sick.  If you not ready for your fingers to get dusty  and to be highly uncomfortable covered in sweat, you might have to skip this area. Either way, this spot #bananarecords got something for every type of vinyl collector.  See ya'll in the trenches.  Also - I have one more gig in St. Petersburg before I bounce - at @coffee.concrete for Sunday service.  Thennnn I make my debut at @hellohellobar
In #nyc this Monday Sept 21st.
