New shirts from Moonblood


MoonblooD has just released their newest line of tees featuring super hero styling for both men and women. The prints feature intricate details and are created by a couple who currently live in No. Libs.
Created in early 2006 by soon-to-be-wed Amy Eldon and Leo Voloshin, MoonblooD is a men's and women's t-shirt label. Inspired by the couple's love of tribal textiles and travel, the line exhibits a wintered and worn aesthetic fusing intricate, hand-drawn graphics on hand-dyed shirts.

From Cool Hunting:
Not unlike their first collection of Egyptian-inspired motifs and Native American imagery, the result is a modern tribal look that takes the tee beyond predictable centered-graphic designs.

The tees start at $38 and include shipping anywhere in the US and Canada.

In her spare time Amy also runs the fashion blog Seamsters commenting on the latest fashion news and trends. This week features guest blogger Ann Marie commenting on NY Fashion Week. (Philly, when are you going to have a fashion week?)

End of an Era: Low Budget's Last Night at 700 Club



Damn, so Low Budget is done with 700 Club. This is a good thing as he is just too busy party rocking the world to be here consistently. Congrats LowB but be sure to save time to play here once in awhile.
So after 4 years of one of the best dance nights I've ever been a part of, I've decided to hang up the headphones on Thursdays at 700 club.

I NEED to thank EVERYONE thats come out the last few years and made this one of the best nights in the city. As a DJ you always dream of having that one weekly party that is consistently bangin, week after week, the night that you practice for, the night that you go out on a limb and break new music, the night that makes you the happiest. And I'm more than lucky to have had that for this long. And its all because of the incredible people that have supported it, that I was able to keep doing it. But furtunately for me, my schedule just will not allow me to continue to put in the effort that it takes to give this night the attention that it deserves, so I have to let it go.

I also have to thank Dan the Swede who's pretty much been my partner in this night for the last two years. He's held it down like no other, and Philadelphia's really lucky to have him as a DJ in their city.

So lets do it one last time!!!

Thursday Feb 8th @ 2nd & Fairmount


Tonite is going to be crazy. Free as always. Lets get it in!!
