RAY VAUGHAN


Where do I start? A pal hooked me up with this link to Hijack on Normski's Dance Energy show in 1991. 

Hijack are for me the toughest band ever in UK Hip Hop. We caned the tape I had while driving my Mum's Renault tank all over Britain to raves. I still know every word. As for the show, makes me laugh though how everyone is dressed in half the stock that I am selling in BLITZ right now. I still think that Normski is the most sincere fella to ever blag his way on to my telly and you must know that today he's a dope photographer. 

Two things that make this video a classic is the fact that everyone looks like that they're dancing for a "spot prize", and also the Rhyme Syndicate Nylon jacket that I'd like to imagine is a Starter. If you know me, then man, you know I need that jacket. If you don't know about Rhyme Syndicate and enjoyed reading this then you really should.





...and a bonus - The Bandman is Robbin.

IN THE MOOD FOR LOVE


Caught this on the great Criterion website..

"A simple plot description does nothing to prepare prospective viewers of Wong Kar-wai’s In the Mood for Love. Yes, there’s a story: set in early 1960s Hong Kong, the film charts a long-lasting, unconsummated flirtation between two neighbors—Su Li-zhen (Maggie Cheung Man-yuk) and Chow Mo-wan (Tony Leung Chiu-wai)—married to others. But it’s a purely visual work, an evocation of romantic and sexual longing that plays out as an abstract emotional poem. “This film is not verbal,” said Wong in 2000. “Everything is expressed through the body, through the people, how they walk, how they move.”"
