London - First Week - Last Thursday- Brick Lane and Shorditch

Still in Induction, on the second day we were instructed not to go into college, but rather meet up Shorditch High Street, round the back to a place called Brick lane, into a store called Rough Trade Records, to look at some underground shit.

me being me, cursed myself on the blower to Jordan "ahh itll be piss to find" coming out of Liverpool St. station.

hour and a half later i arrive, with a folder in my phone full of pictures from the past hour and a half being distracted by my lack of co-ordination skills, and the sourrounding vibrant walls that live in Shorditch. man was i stoked.....

Brick Lane

so i continue on and eventaully come to my destination.the place seemed familiar to The Village thats in our Custard Factory, stylish shops, exclusive products, rare foods, and underground people.

after digging in a few crates, and finding some sick looking 12"'s i continue outside and take a closer look at its sourroundings

cut a long story short, the area turned out to be a strong artistic piece of londons territory, offering art (on the walls) from the likes of Banksy and OBEY man Sheppard Fairey and KAWS. these were also reflected in the stores around the area, with a good stock of
stuff for the "scaliwags and fresh kids" (Cool Kids- '88)
