Without a doubt, the Sentinel Sound-hosted Kingston Hot party series in Stuttgart has been Germany’s hottest dance for quite a bit now.
Check the video review (via Pinnacle Clothing) of the latest Kingston Hot session at Rocker33 above – including a nice live performance by Cécile, a mad dubplate by German rapper/soul-guerriero Max Herre and our EVERYBODY IS A STAR tee represented by Sentinel mic-man Shotta Paul.
I find this song and video madly inspiring. It’s beautifully shot and contains stunning footage of Kingston – the message in the song is amazing as well. (via The Heatwave)
For the final outdoor scene Kartel was rolling deep with his crew Also, note the fans watching the shoot from the roof. There were literally hundreds of people who came to get a glimpse of Kartel. (via Dre Skull)
The single cover, a photograph of a bullet ahead of the wave, is a creation of Schlieren photography, a technique that allows the visualization of density changes, and therefore shock waves, in fluid flow. Schlieren techniques have been used in laboratory wind tunnels to visualize the supersonic flow of model aircraft, making airflow visible, or to view the reaction of FIRE on its environment.

Jamaica Project explores modern Jamaica through it’s dancehall and party scene. The result being a combination of purely text based work alongside some pretty sexy graphics depicting the dichotomy of the Jamaican woman’s place within society. It has been a means of understanding and coming to grips with modern Jamaican culture while connecting it with elements of the past that inspired me as a child.

After Ronny Trettmann’s »Schüttn’ Eimmer Wasser Drüber« (watch Frank Ribery and Daniel van Buyten demonstrate) hit teutonic dancefloors like a Tsunami back in September 2010, he’s back with another dance sensation: »Rangschier!« (»manoeuvre«) features Shotta Paul of Sentinel Sound fame and comes with a wicked half cartoon, half reality clip – our video of the week.
Big up the whole Heckert Empire family and especially Matthias »Gringo« Müller for the illustrations!
