Back on Amelia's




I just got another couple of articles published on the Amelia's site, the first of which is a review of the latest Fabric mix by Get Physical owner DJ T. This guy has been holding it down on the international house music scene for over a decade, owns one of the most influential clubs in Europe and started Germany's premier techno magazine.

To find out more, read the damn review!

Goldie interview on Huck



Huck Magazine is currently acting as a media partner for Soul Heaven's Kicks N Canvas exhibition. This is a group art show featuring a lot of internationally respected artists including drum and bass pioneer Goldie.

I spoke with the revered DJ, label owner and graffiti artist about his involvement in the project and found that he is a very approachable, funny guy. Essentially, he is the complete opposite of the persona he portrays in music videos and films!

You can read the interview HERE.

Noiya Clothing interview

SLAMMJAMM XI NOIYA www.noiyaclothing.co.uk from Slamm Jamm on Vimeo.



Slamm Jamm recently released another video interview that I completed at last year's event. Noiya are a relatively new company but their designs are pretty good and they are supporting UK rollerblading by holding an annual event called the Noiya Jam in Sheffield.

Support these guys and they will continue to support UK rollerblading.

PMKFA interview



A few weeks ago I was invited to the new DC Shoes x Sixpack France collaboration launch. The collection consisted of two pairs of shoes, a T-Shirt and a New Era cap, all designed by Swedish artist PMKFA.

I got the chance to speak with the talented designer and found out that in addition to designing products for other companies, he also has his own T-Shirt company called It's Our Thing and their stuff is pretty good!

Check out the interview HERE.

Make sure you get a copy of the latest HUCK because I wrote one of the cover stories!

That was a little shameless, wasn't it?

Vine St

Vine St Preview from Dom West on Vimeo.



Dom West has a new video coming out called Vine St and it features full sections on Rian Arnold, Richie Eisler, Tien Nugen and CJ Wellsmore. If this video is even half as good as the CJ Wellsmore edit that he produced last year then it is going to be brilliant.

It is shot solely in Sydney and features people that have stayed at the infamous Vine St apartment at one time or another.

Dom West is pretty much spot on when it comes to camera angles and his editing is always smooth as hell. Make sure you buy this so he will keep making skate flicks!

Quoted




In the not too distant past I wrote a feature about the Agents of Change, a graffiti collective that came up with the incredible idea to tranform an abandoned UK village into a large scale work of art by decorating the derelict buildings with an assortment of beautiful, colourful designs.

Well, I stumbled upon this promo for their latest show in London and for some strange reason they have decided to quote me!

"This truly is one of the most original art projects you are likely to see."
- David McNamara. Huck Magazine.

This made me laugh like hell. Firstly, because I am no authority on street art at all. Also, it's not as if anyone is going to read that and think: "Oh, look! David McNamara said it was good, so it must be amazing. We better check that out!"

I must admit, it was pretty cool seeing my name used in that context.

Usually it is hastily written in the men's toilets alongside the words "... is a prick."
