Precinct 5 - Authentic Style Detection

Precinct5_logo

On the 10th of December, the doors to the old police station on Singel 459 will open for a never-before-seen concept. Precinct 5, located in this classic Amsterdam canal house, is where the Stüssy and Enplus shops will find their new home. The concept of the shop came from a unique collaboration of leaders and trendsetters of Amsterdam’s fashion- and music-industry. Under the management of the well-known DJ Mr. Wix, Precinct 5 will carry sophisticated and premium clothing originating from pure street culture. The interior of Precinct 5 is designed by architects Kuub, with a graphic identity created by Experimental Jetset.

Precinct 5 derives its identity from a partnership between Mr. Wix, Patta and MassiveMusic.

For the last five years, Patta has proved to be one of Europe’s most progressive high-end sneaker stores. Their venture has lead to some impressive collaboration with companies such as Nike, Converse and Reebok. For over ten years, Mr. Wix has been a recognized DJ and style icon. He is part of Parra Soundsystem and is associated in the organization of many parties such as Zwarte Lola and Bling in Jimmy Woo. MassiveMusic is a highly developed and cutting-edge agency that produces music for moving images.
Years of identifying, participating-in, filtering and combining style influences with a level of distinction and individuality makes this cooperation a perfect combination.

Doors will open this week. Thursday December 10th we'll be celebrating the new store with a selected crowd. From Friday onwards doors are open to the public. For more info visit their website and get connected on Facebook.

The Souldiers

Cato and Sofie van Dijck are two talented singers from Amsterdam. For quite a while we have the privilege to work with them on various productions. You might know their voices from some commercials we did. Such as this one.

But you should definately know them from their own music projects: The Van Dijck Band, The Van Dijck Sisters, or their band The Souldiers. If not, now is the time. The Souldiers are a unique group of young musicians with an eclectic background in varying styles of folk, New Orleans funk, soul and rhythm and blues. If you are able to see them live, go for it. You won't regret it.

Last night The Souldiers did a very convincing performance by doing 'Get Back' in Dutch TV-talkshow DWDD. Check the footage:
