Makr Rucksack



"A couple of Makr bags have just landed at French Trotters and here’s our pick of the bunch. Given men’s natural love for all things navy we often find ourselves forcing ourselves to get accessories in different colours, if only to break up the monotony of an all blue outfit. Looking like an Americana incarnation of the blue man group is never a good look."

Ray Ban Caravan in Gold



Saw this pair of original vintage B&L Ray Ban Caravan around 5 years ago in a steal price. How stupid am i for not getting it at that time.

Milk Bottle Concept



An interesting milk bottle concept by Russian Agency, Kian. The developed conception of the package shape resembled an udder, which presents the first half of the message in that soy milk is identical to that of a cow. The second part of the message is delivered via the colour score and décor of the packaging, which concentrate on the phytogenesis of the product, creating an image of nature and health.

Mustard Marvin & Count Ketchup



Great ambient from these two bottle caps. One is Marvin's head and the other one is Count's head. Mustard Marvin replaces your mustard cap with his head. Squeezing the bottle will make Marvin drip mustard from his mouth, while the Count Ketchup replaces your ketchup cap with his head. When you squeeze the bottle, you can watch your favorite condiment drip from his fangs all over your food. Both of 'em are made to fit most standard mustard and ketchup bottles.

Brandt Brauer Frick - BOP (Video)

Saw this video today, this is sick. This awesome Acoustic Techno project is performed by Brandt Brauer Frick (Daniel Brandt, Jan Brauer and Paul Frick). They created amazing sounds using piano, drums, percussions, brass and string instruments, rhodes, moog, bass, and analog synth and mixing awesome techno beats with oldschool looping process that brings full deepness and rich minimalism.

"The generation of the sound is mostly acoustic – even the bassdrum. Only few electronic instruments complete the sound. Brandt Brauer Frick succeed in a thrilling synthesis of club and concert hall. On both platforms they will present themselves, getting percussive and energetic sounds out of apparently harmless classical instruments."



"Three young musicians have recently joined together for this exciting acoustic techno project. On the one hand Daniel Brandt and Jan Brauer, who as a duo named "Scott“ produce club music with a jazz attitude. On the other hand Paul Frick, who has studied composition with Friedrich Goldmann at Berlin University of Arts (UdK). Besides pieces for orchestral instruments he also releases house music."
