Well, it would be rather easy to assume that we would like the gentleman Hugo Slime simply because of his name. Or the name of this track. But: this one is nothing short of a bomb! Mr. Slime is from the City of London and you can kinda tell by the incredibly clever and funky groove of “Hugo’s Elements”. Topped with a catchy vocal sample, this one is the kind of track DJs around the world will pick to inform their crowd that the party has just started. Make sure to check out more of Hugo’s stuff, because there’s way more where this came from. We put that on our name!
WHAT’S IN A NAME?

AN UNBEATABLE TEAM

Black and white – an unbeatable fashion team that will never be out of style. My advice: Try an asymmetric take on the classic black-and-white look this season as pictured above. But then again you can also play it safe with a feminine black skirt and a sleeveless white shirt. Black and white – always fashionable and always right!

GENTLE PIANO
[HearDis! 370]
We have some more Audiolith heat coming your way, people! This time it is the rather recently formed Berlin-duo Torsun Teichgräber with their summer beauty “Dr. Sommer”. As the press info suggests, this one is filled with “heartfelt warmth, organic basslines and a whole lotta love”. As this is something that we can hardly ever get enough of, we were sold after the first couple of bars. And the second this lovely piano kicks in, we just can’t help but smile! Be quick and grab your free download of this track, which will not leave your personal playlist all summer! Promise!
LIME TIME

My favorite summer drink? Ice-cold mineral water with a dash of lime juice. Let’s try and translate this simple drink recipe to fashion: Slip into white and add a dash of lime color and voilà, you are ready for this summer. Here are some looks from HUGO Summer 2013 to inspire you!


HOUSE CAT
[HearDis! 369]
There are not that many tracks out there that perfectly describe a sunny afternoon in Berlin the way Rampue’s tracks do. He self-deprecatingly labels them “emohouse”, while they’re actually really cleverly used vocal samples accompanied by deep grooves. “Katz Und Maus” also uses these ingredients and people will fall for this one by the truckload. Check out this beauty right now by simply hitting play!
WHITEST DRESS ALIVE

A white dress is a classic summer essential. This season I’m loving this short sleeved fitted shift dress from HUGO Summer 2013. Imagine wearing this dress at a summer party in the Hamptons. Or enjoying an afternoon tea on a London Penthouse garden. Or – let’s be more realistic – having a lunch break with the girls. There are only two rules to obey: Make sure you have a light sun tan and don’t spill anything! For more white look inspirations click here.

HOW SWEET IT IS
[HearDis! 365]
The ex bassist of Twin Shadow, Brooklyn’s Russ Manning aka Rush Midnight brings us this cool track called “Don’t Give Me Your Love”. We’re having quite a hard time to do as he wishes, because we can’t deny having a little crush on this song already… See for yourself if you can resist this ’80s influenced treat!
PATTERNED!

Time to expose your kneecaps, gentlemen! Short pants are back this summer and patterned ones like the one from HUGO pictured above are the “dernier cri”. Wear them with a classic white shirt or a shirt in one of the pattern’s colors and you will master this summer in a very elegant and modern way.

STREAM THE BASS
[HearDis! 358]
Bomb The Bass have really been around for a while now! Remember “Beat Dis”? Well, these guys truly helped moulding late 1980s acid house. These days, Tim Simenon and Paul Conboy are returning with a new track entitled “Wandering Star” and an album is supposed to drop later in 2013. A tour is in the making as well! Check out the remix by Ken Hayakawa right here to hear how they didn’t loose touch!
POPSICLE DRESSES

These two dresses remind me of a popsicle – colorful, fresh and very summery yet classy and elegant. They are from the HUGO Summer 2013 collection, which is now available in stores.
