3D animation rarely gets the chops it deserves. Pixar and the Dis are doing their thing on the kiddie tip, but what if your taste runs more to sphincter-clenching action, topped off with mind-blowing sneakers? Sigg Jones is that film and thanks to the tenacity and genius of three French film students (Asterokid, MCBess and Motraboy), 3D animation has never looked so dope! Based on a superhero gone postal, the film showcases some of the most hectic battles this side of the Matrix. But forget about the punch-ups, this animation is all about the Magic Dunk! One of the slickest rides we’ve seen this side of the hybrid highway, the Magic Dunk takes the Yeezy to a whole new level! We had to find out more, and luckily for us, the three fellas were happy to give us the 411.
"Sao Paolo Fashion week was cool. Very well produced. It's amazing that all of the shows core production is underwritten-- so young designers can show in an impressive way, at far less costs than the USA. NYC fashion wek could stand to learn from it. The shows felt real-- and accesible to the people. I particularly enjoyed Alexandre Herchcovitch's show. He is a well respected Brazilian designer. His womens design is amazing--very street, but very sophisticated and sexy. I saw his men's show on the last night, and met up with him after the show."

This will be the final cover of the legendary magazine, which will be truly missed. Rumor is... it may or may not be released, keep you fingers crossed!
"Words cannot begin to convey the power of the entity known as LADYBUG STINGRAY. LBSR is a Funky Dance Power Duo that promises to kick your ass; and have the goods to back it up. They rock the house with stadium level energy, and play every show like it is their last. They even rehearse like that. Their Mission is: to Take you Higher, Spread Love, and Blow Your Mind They are fronted by an up an coming superstar, multitalented Singer, Keyboardist , Composer KVK 13 (Kalen Van Kalen 13). Kalen has "otherworldly " vocal prowess. she has the rock energy of Janis Joplin. The soul diva gospel chops of Alicia Keys, the ethereal expression of Kate Bush. And can rap like nobody’s business. On top of that, she plays super funky experimental rock lead keyboard. think Bernie Worrel (from Parliament/Funkadelic ) meets Square Pusher meets Imogean Heap. Kalen "Van Kalen" performs with the level of intensity that has not been seen in a fucking long time!!! There’s more. "Sugar Bubbles" plays bass synth and complete drum set at the same. That’s right, AT THE SAME TIME. he sounds like two people playing (at the same time). This MUST be seen to be believed. Tooo Funky, Tooo intense . Super tight. He is a complete Fusion Monster Specialist. this man has beyond chops ala Dennis Chambers, but is just as happy rockin you to the ground with his deadly funky grooves think Clyde Stubblefield, and all the drum and bass and modern hip hop /world beat, beats in between. KVK 13 and Sugar Bubbles are both Composer/ Songwriters guaranteed to take you there. This is a lot to live up to, but this is only scratching the surface of what this unit is capable of, and they are more than ready to bring it. Do yourself a favor, check them out in the initial raw settings while you can because they are about to blow the F$K Up. "
