Last weekend was Paris time, playing with my man and no1 Parisienne Powell on Friday and Saturday. Nights out were not that spectacular, but meeting all those nice people next to a 100% sunshine weekend made it all worth it. Plus i had the best curry chicken sandwich EVER in Rue Jacob (6e Arr.), you MUST check that little place out – I forgot the name but its a small street and there`s usually a long queue outside which always is a good sign.
We suck. Not posting anything for more than a month cannot be excused, but we have a whole lotta sh*t going on right now. New office for two of us three with the third one being busy at a new job etc pp you know the deal. Anyways, we`ll step up our game during the summertime and will do our best not to get THAT lazy with posting again.

Just a quick heads up – it`s time for our bi-annual sneakermarket Kicks&Cake this sunday and we just confirmed a screening of the epic “Just For Kicks” documentary from 2005, extra special: the Director behind it, Thibaut de Longeville, will be joining us here in Cologne for that occasion and give some background information on how the documentary came to life… WIN.
Nice little vieo featuring some dope stuff next to familiar music faces like FS Green or Tom Trago (see above). I really hope that Stussy Flagship store is already open when I`m in Amsterdam next week, me wants to check that one out badly.
This blog is mostly about music appreciation, for real. Rather than participating in nowadays "we were first" blog game we focus on timeless tracks and a few exclusives we think you should hear and play out. There simply is too much crap around. Anyways, if you own the copyright in something that is up here and want an audio link removed or feel like getting in contact for whatever reason please email to holla [at] 123rakete.de.
Other than that we are three DJ`s from Cologne running a monthly clubnight, dj around elsewhere a bit, enjoy both vinyl and mp3`s next to some other random stuff.
