Justice fever


Irish Rock band, U2 are certified icons in the music industry. While no one would argue with their stature in the business, they are now respected more as elder statesmen rather then a cutting edge band. However, Bono and the boys know exactly who to enlist when they want to add some avant-garde sheen to their classic Rock sound. Leather clad French House duo Justice where asked specifically to give U2’s No Line On The Horizon first single “Get On Your Boots” the bone chilling synthesizer treatment. From the opening melody of the remix you can tell Gaspard and Xavier have totally made the song their own. From distorted synth clangs to melodic keyboard stabs, hand claps and heavy bass lines the group instantly transforms the song from a ominous tune about warfare to a dance floor ready gem.

It looks like German camera specialists Leica is preparing for a limited edition launch of their M8 camera in an all-white version. The specifics regarding a price point or even production numbers are uncertain at this point although the features look to be the same without any added changes other than the color scheme

Chicago


I have to say moving from the west cost to the east cost is quite a transaction.
As much as I love the Big apple, I still miss Chi-town. ( Except the winters. Brrr)
Recently I returned to my lovely city, and shared with 2 very dearest friends... We had a blast! And manage to stay out of trouble :P
The cold wind and snowflakes in march :/ did not stop the fun.


Between champagne and room services, bright lights and fine dinning, house music and friendly people I really can't decide what was the highlight of this trip.
