Ten dayz in Tokyo

Francesca and I spent 10 days in Tokyo, it felt like our honeymoon... here are some phodoz

love Marco
5am saturday morning waiting for the trains to start

these 4 lads were my crew over there for the trip L-R Petz, Tatsuya, Elmaa (in the back), Iriki and me (Marco)

pyramids/triangles are also big in Japan

this one is for the lads

this is the famous hachiko crossing in Shibuya, NYE in Sydney is smaller than a tuesday arvo here...

same crossing at night, but blurry...

June 13th was my birthday ("tanjobe des" in Japanese), I decided to walk around Harajuku all day barefoot. This is shnookums and I in the Bape store...

For my birthday we went to this traditional resturant in Harajuku, it was ridiculous


This is Uniqlo's T-shirt store UT, they have shirts in capsules, pretty tweaked. Modular Records have all their artists shirts in these shops, so big propz to Pav and the lads at Modular...

Shnookums getting excited for Takeshita st, Harajuku. This place was always busy with thousands of kids...


I hurt my foot, this bandage didnt help...

Odaiba is a man made island/playground in the middle of Tokyo bay, it also has a replica of the Statue of Liberty. If I photoshop myself out of this its a good collage

Crab Miso Soup, amazing... and I am not even that big of a crab fan

Shnookums getting excited about the Hello Kitty store in Ikebukuro, we were staying about a 10 minute walk from here

this lad was a Monja artist, we had to come back here a second time...


just think of it as the tastiest cheese and bacon pizza/pancake in the world...


hahaha in some areas you cant smoke on the street, but its still cool to smoke in a restaurant... epic


This is Raddlounge, our agents for Japan. This is me probably showing Hiroshi some chopped and screwed beats on my pod...

this is Takuto from Raddlounge, he took Francesca and I out to lunch on our first day. He loves Japanese food and making us laugh... what a lad

Iriki and Tatsuya invited us to come along to an exhibition. This is us with the lads from Kiks Tyo, Im not even a big sneakerhead but I kind of think these guys are ripping with their oldschool colourways... the exhibition was showcasing their new season plus an upcoming Japanese graphic designer Quolomo.


This is the first Streetwear store in Harajuju. SWG (swagger) downstairs and Phenomenon upstairs. They stock brands like Cassette Playa and hopefully PVT soon...

2 of the best... hahaha respect to the lads at SWG


next up we walked to the famous Heights streetwear store in Harajuku. this is the entrance... pyramid doors so skitzy

the lads just chillin on the top floor

Club Axxcis VIP floor, Jenkins for tequilla... I knew Jenkins was a worldwide name for rock/scissors/paper, wasnt it from Alex the Kid in Miracle World?

this is Aki (Akihabara hahahahaha) what can I say, he doesnt give a fuck



Im not a DJ, never had dreams to be one. I just love music...
