Mos Def‘s new album ‘The Ecstatic‘ is set to be released via T-shirt.
The album is going to be embedded in the shirt. Each t-shirt has a hang-tang with a URL and a unique code which allows the buyer to download the music. It will be released on July 7 in the States with the UK release dropping on August 24th.
Check out the track Casa Bey from the album below.
Death Skateboards rider Dean Palmer has a fresh edit lifted from the Mosaiook video unleashed onto youtube this week. The DVD features riders from Sydney, Melbourne and Europe from the Ook crew. You can also watch some fresh footage of Schooner below at 5Dock with Horsey. Schooner has been out with a nasty knee injury so it’s good to see him back in there ripping. In other related Australian news, skate photographer Steve Gourlay just completed a Triple Shot interview, so look out for that next week.
