Strush is on top of what? Lol.


Interesting collab though. What's the connection with the record label?

On top of the whole damn game if you ask me, the brand has been releasing some of the best skate videos consistently for 15 years now, Collective Improvisation and Cityscape are still fantastic to this day and their web edits always rule, too, Ryuchi Tanaka is a genius.

About the record label, they used two of their DJ's music in this and, apparently, dropped some product:

I know he gets the credit in Japan, but not really abroad. He's as underrates as they come.

From 2008. This is a must watch.

Cityscape is on DVD only, but there are some parts online.

The Daiki Hosoda part might be my favorite. The Japanese Puleo, cosigned by Puleo.

Live is originally this man's initiative after thirty years of shooting photos all over the world and making several magazines (Sugar, Pause, also co-founded Kingpin). Personally I write for several mags but I've been running his platform with him in particular for years now, which is great as I used to read his articles so much as a kid I would memorize every word. Always did a lot for the Western European scene and played a big role in connecting it to the U.S. but also always remained in the shadows as to keep doing interesting things. Benjamin is the best.

Nice edit. Quantize is a good full-length video too.

I'll look into it. I'd never heard of that brand before.  But I've always liked Luca Lozano's artwork.

Two of my favorite things mashed together.
