iSSUE 5 @ Electricity Showrooms

Heath — Fri, 30 May 2008 16:13:53 +0000

Last Sunday the Electricity Showrooms hosted Issue five: the Nova Issue, featuring Nova Dando. As usual it was a great night with a feast of fashion and music plus the excitement of a bank holiday crowd. Due to the ponystep night down the road filling up so quick, the night also got the extra benefits of [...]

Periodic Table Rings

Heath — Tue, 27 May 2008 14:24:39 +0000

Watch out nerds, the periodic table is coming into fashion. These periodic rings by INN tick all my boxes - chunky, great design and hint of irony. Each ring is printed with the periodic element it’s made from and currently features three metals - Ag (Silver), Au (Gold), and Pt (Platinum). Unfortunately due to the fact [...]

Sam Sparro: The NuRave Kid on the Block

Heath — Mon, 19 May 2008 17:42:59 +0000

Just when we we’re all twiddling our thumbs wondering what the song of the summer was going to be, along comes Sam Sparro with his infectious electro-funk track Black and Gold. His self-titled debut album already has the likes of Mark Ronson sitting up and taking notice (the super-producer has already given Sparro kudos over MySpace, [...]

Strange Chilli

Heath — Fri, 16 May 2008 14:26:08 +0000

Plants that accidentally look like genitals are funny. However, websites selling them so you can “impress all your friends and family” [sic] are a little creepy. If you’ve been searching the internet for Chilli seeds that grow in the shape of a penis, well look no further. Dubbed as “Chilli Willy“, or “Peter Pepper” the [...]

Patience IS a virtue

London Frequently is getting a much needed make over and image relaunch. We’re having one of those days you when you just can’t decide what to wear, and despite how many outfits we try on, nothing looks quite right. If our lack of posting and strange layout is testing your patience, take a deep breath [...]

You Snooze, You Lose

Heath — Wed, 09 Apr 2008 10:12:32 +0000

Being a freelance writer, it can be hard to force myself to get up any earlier than 10am. If you have problems getting up in the morning, don’t beat yourself up about it. It’s not your fault. It’s the damn snooze button’s fault. If the snooze button was never invented, just imagine what a different place [...]

Lego Cake: Find out who your true friends are

Pixie — Wed, 09 Apr 2008 00:18:43 +0000

Out of all the things I love from my childhood, Birthday Cakes and Lego would have to be THE highlight. So why, oh why, was the Lego cake and Lego jelly mould not around in the 80s when I could of enjoyed it to the max? The weeks leading up to our birthdays, my brother and [...]

iSSUE 3 @ Electricity Showrooms

Heath — Tue, 08 Apr 2008 00:55:01 +0000

iSSUE 3 @ Electricity Showrooms The third Issue of ..er… Issue kicked off at the Electricity Showrooms in Shoreditch, and brought with it a plethora of fashion extremism. It was cross-dressing, neon and big hair as far as the eye could see. Co-hosted by Jodie Harsh and Scottee, the new is-it-a-magazine-or-is-it-a-club-night concept was in full swing by [...]

First Kiss Necklace

Heath — Mon, 07 Apr 2008 16:35:10 +0000

The problem with kisses, is that you can’t wear them around your neck on a chain. No wait, now you can. Next time a lover plants a kiss on your cheek, exclaim loudly, “Thats not a kiss! THIS is a kiss!” and point wildly to Jules Smith’s Kiss Kiss jewellery collection until they get the [...]

Don’t Drop the Soap

Heath — Thu, 03 Apr 2008 13:41:46 +0000

Most board games are either educational (trivial pursuit), purely for kids (hungry hippos), or really long and boring (monopoly). The good people at Gillius found a hole in the market for a game thats none of these things and named it Don’t Drop the Soap. Finally, a board game that give ordinary folk like you [...]
