STONES THROW Records: ‘Our Vinyl Weighs A Ton’ Documentary

Posted by Michael Olajide on May 23, 2013

Looking forward to seeing this documentary by filmmaker Jeff Broadway, chronicling the music label Stones Throw Records and its founder Peanut Butter Wolf. Being a fan of the label and many of its associated artists, would be nice to know more about the history and catch some bonus archival footage. You can peep the trailer below.

The Story of the 501® Jean

Posted by Lee Goldup on May 22, 2013




The Levi's 501 are celebrating their 140th anniversary and have made this almost 3 minute video to highlight the numerous evolutions in design since it's begging in 1873. The video showcases the iconic 501's importance in numerous subcultures from punk to prep and mod to rock.

We are very happy to be adding Levi's Vintage and Levis Made & Crafted to our roaster for AW13





London British beat-making duo Mount Kimbie have been sharing tunes from their upcoming album 'Cold Spring Fault Less Youth' for a while now and with the release date just over a week away, there is a stream of the full album available.

The British production duo have taken the opportunity to showcase their instrumentation skills, by recording the project without drum machines or computer programs. Dominic Maker and Kai Campos love performing live and wanted their second record to be something they could transfer to the stage more easily.

Stream the new record on NPR and be sure to pick it up when it's released on the 28th May


Wood Wood: What you should know

Posted by Michael Olajide on May 20, 2013


We at The Great-Divide think Wood Wood is the shit, (essential to your wardrobe) and recognise it as one of the top dogs in Scandinavian men’s casualwear. Founded in 2002, by head honcho’s Karl-Oskar Olsen and BSS Jensen, the Copenhagen based brand personifies a laid back mixture of classic street-wear and high-end fashion.

More than a clothing brand they have emerged as a lifestyle that continues to grow organically from strength to strength. The brand has expanded beyond clothing that sees it embark on exhibitions, music collaborations with international artists as well as a bicycle racing team. If you were not already up on the brand, here are a few reasons on why you should be. 

 

Consistent, well shot lookbooks that make sense.
-- Spring / Summer 13 Lookbook

 

Their collaboration game is on point.
-- New Balance/Babour partnership 

 

They throw parties you wish you were at.

HOW TO | Cocktails 101 : Hennessy Old Fashioned

Posted by Michael Olajide on May 20, 2013

In their How To video series Complex TV demonstrate the art of cocktail making. For people like me, trying to be more of a man in a time where it can be so easy to forget how, this is a must watch. It’s time to put down that Glen’s vodka and redbull and start making cocktails. Probably will not impress and get those ‘bitches’ but still worth a watch, check out the video below.
