Representing at a mere 22 years of age, Jesse Marco has quickly become one of the nations newest in DJ talent.
Perfect for this sunny Sunday, here he drops his brand spankin mixtape for Stussy Deluxe's Spring '13 line, entitled Jesse Marco for Stussy Deluxe.
Shiz is definitely next level, and pretty perfecto to begin getting your spring on.
Says the dude himself :
"I'm really quite proud of this mix, I thought long and hard about how to encapsulate all my influences into one long mix, and sort've explain where my head was at when I was working on it, as well as how important it was to me to incorporate all of the aspects of DJing and generes of music that are pushing music forward."
Yea sunnn. Holler.
Tracklist on the Soundcloud page and also posted after the jump.
Damn sunnnnn.
Sky Force 88. Ak like you know.
Find em for a pretty penny @ The Good Will Out. Where they have lots of slick and crazy shit.
Its a tough call, but this tops the Stussy Japan colorways from early 2011...
The blues too...
As the masses of nouveau 'sneaker heads' who enjoy camping out & lining up and/or paying $300+ for a pair made 'rare' immediately, are too lazy to dig for cheap ACTUALLY rare kicks, and probably couldn't tell you the difference between a Workout Classic w/ a strap and a 54.11 already knooooooow, Nike applied for a patent to make Marty McFly's last year.
Daedelus is a man of fine craftsmanship. He is a of tailor made suit enthusiast. His wife tailor makes him articles of clothing as presents. And he tailor makes amazing music. On a tailor made instrument. His perfomance @ Coachella (see below) wasn't even dampered in the least by some initial technical set difficulties, and some fuck ups by the house lighting guys. Still murdered. One of our favorite performances of the weekend. Hands down.
I was the beneficiary of a lot of weird moments in time.
And this:
Ourselves are so overly important, and we make such a big deal out of things. It’s very temporal, our lives. If you can make a significant impact in someone’s life, much less a lot of people’s lives, it’s a form of love. It’s a form of gift.
His album Bespoke(out now on Ninja Tune of course, along w/ label mate Amon Tobin's new one), which refers to things custom made to ones personal specifications, and also, more generally, one who is well put together, is out now. You really really should delve deep into his archives as well. He had an album last year as well!!
His set-up @ Coachella was quite amazing. The mirrors behind him rotated w/ lights and shizzz flashing up on em....and when they finally cut the house lights (what you can see below illuminating him and his set up, they're not supposed to be on), shit was really on...
Some yummertons from Converse in a collab with Marimekko...more on that here...I love the designs of course, and the color combos, but my favorite feature is the absence of the clsssic horizontal black line on the sole which they have swiched up for an all white version..the all white all-star logo is dope too..
Oh and recently, Nike Sportswear (NSW) won a bid to outfit the F.F.F.(thats French Football Federation for you non footie peeps out there)...well its a bit of a big deal b/c the team had been with Adidas forever. They've now ditched the Germans in favor of us Yanks...Well you know Nike, they couldn't help but do a bunch of ridic limited editions as they continue to fucking FLOOD the sneaker market...those who know me can probably guess which is my fave..
