R.I.P. Adam MCA Yauch. I still remember my photoshooting with the beastie boys very well, it was in 92. we all had a big cold and going outside was a nightmare, it was a grim day in hamburg. but the gig at the markthalle was so full of energy, they made me forget how shit I felt. damn, this get`s my tears out now… xx k.

how much I love little boots. here a great remix of the song every night i say a prayer by hamburg`s tensnake which I also photographed some time ago. xx k.

tonight I´m going into my absolute fanbase territory. always been a huge fan of laurent garnier, who`s so open for all musicstyles and with his knowlege of mixing it`s just a musical bomb explosion. can`t remember how many times I was flying on his sets. we did three photosessions together over the years in hamburg/cologne and met already in manchester during the heydays of the hacienda club. I really love the idea of this video he posted today, it just reflects perfectly how much fun and madness you have when you go on tour with a lot of guys. love it! xx k.
