See a wicked series of nightshots the seen.-designer/-photographer Gabriel Holzner took in downtown Kingston during the past weeks on www.first-magazine.net.
Also don´t miss the chance to get Tarrus Riley feat. Sizzla “Who´s gonna save us” for free over at The Fader.
Peter Dean Rickards finally pushed the button: FIRST is back online and it´s better than Ninja Man.
Gabe, designer at seen., has now almost spent one month in Kingston, Jamaica. Before leaving for the “School of Vision”, a rasta community in the Blue Mountains, for about one week, he sent me some nightshots he took downtown in the past days. I especially like the one above. More to come.
And just in case you were wondering when new seen. stuff will arrive: in the first week of April. Better save your money. See previews after the jump.
Some of you might already have noticed: we added a new category to our webshop: magazines. You will find mags there that your local newspaper place won´t normally carry. Mags about wicked music. Mags with wicked layouts and wicked photography.
The first publication we added to our stock is “Shook” magazine out of London, UK which is
a brand new publication inspired by the five elements, the four noble truths, three - the magic number, forever two stepping (never half) but still always on the 1. UK-based but with an international outlook.
In issue 1, Jez and his team
get up close & personal with DJ Muro (the king of diggin), touch down in Detroit and vibe with Guilty Simpson, Black Milk, Denaun Porter and invincible; chat basslines in the studio with Benga, track down elusive french street artist Invader, get loose with Leroy Burgess, feature exclusive photos from the New York downtown scene by Paula Court, and relay some uplifting musical undercurrents in Ethiopia from Maga Bo and in Belize from Andy Palacio.
As if that wasn’t enough, they also have columns from Benji B, Paul Camo? / WE ARE… and The Heatwave, in their ladies section they speak to Simphiwe Dana and Yukimi Nagano, while their charts and reviews section will let you know what’s fresh for ‘08.
Check what other readers have to say:

Just found a Diplo edit of South Rakka´s “Get Mad Again” on Discobelle. Nice as usual.
By the way: Thanks to Alex from Berlin´s legendary Such A Sound posse, the South Rakkas Crew will play in Germany´s capital on the 22nd of March. You better don´t miss that. Flyer to follow.
Ever heard of a blog called “Street Clash”? Nope? That´s
“an international style competition between blogs & photographers around the world.”
As you can see above, currently Munich (GER) ranks Numero Uno. Wow. Who would have thought that? But there´s still some time left to vote and/or take part yourself.
A good chance to get your pic on the blog is to go to the Street Clash party in Berlin. In the course of the “Wedding Dress” event in Berlin which brings streetwear and urban fashion to one of the not so nice corners of Germany´s capital, the people who run “Street Style” - were invited and will party in “Store 11” tomorrow.
For more information see the flyer after the jump.
