Our Beautiful Game is a project about Synergy created by SB Studio. Dan Kenyon took the pictures. Chris Barrow produced the website. Both did amazing work.
For those of you who heard about the “Toll at German Music Festival” called Loveparade. 19 people died and 342 people got wounded due to a mass hysteria in a long but thin tunnel leading to the festival area.
I’ve been there with for of my friends. We couldn’t believe the absurdity and stupidity we saw. People smoking pot while taking pills by washing them down with vodka. A highly pregnant woman with her 6 years old walking hand in hand. Foreigners doing cocaine while staying in a crowd full of strangers.
I never really had the feeling of total panic while visting the parade, but I certainly didn’t find bliss in this event. Me and my friends did not see dead guys. Neither have we been active part of a mass hysteria.
The German radio station 1live said, that mostly every visitor of the Loveparade will have a story to tell when everything’s over. That is true indeed.
The Loveparade will not continue in future.
Me and my friends are all as fine as we can be after such a shock.
Every time I’m with you
I am drunk
And you are tooWell what the hell
Else are we
Supposed to doYeah every time
You come by
We get so trashed
And stay up all nightWell it’s so wrong
But it’s so right
Yeah, it’s alrightEvery time, Every time
Every time, Every time
Every time, Every time

I guess it’s true
You should watch Anton Corbijn’s black-and-white film Control about Ian Curtis from Joy Divison.
You lot are something else. I hold my hands up! I am a believer in Joy Division! Fucking hallelujah!
ZPYZ’s musicvideo for she’s a dealer made by the HORT is seriously intense.
The Drums totally excite me at the moment. The lyrics are nothing less than true. I hope they will have a long future.
Lennart, you’re amazing. Thank you for everything. We’re superstars. I’ll see you somewhere down the track. Don’t forget me. I won’t forget you, cross my heart.
Loveliness in person. You should be her friend.
Come on, it’s Nietzsche. (via thegrandarchives)
