TOKYO NE #3. FRAGMENT.

The other day I popped into the Fragment office to catch up with Kojiro-kun and say hi to the team whilst I was in town. I was pretty glad and humbled to hear that the “VINTAGE NOISE” mix CD that Kojiro put together for our Q123 anniversary collection was received really well, with people all over town going into the HeadPorter stores asking if they could purchase the CD, which unfortunately was just a give-away at our anniversary celebration and friends and family. Kojiro also laser engraved the logo I designed for him on his new headphones too, which was a real surprise and honour. Thank you.

Our never-ending CD exchange program. Thanks GOH, from Stepper Records/Outwards. Goh and Kojiro have a monthly gig called “OUTWARDS” at Microcosmos Shibuya. Be sure to check it out if you’re in town.

Was given a copy of this - SCRIPT, a lifestyle magazine from Hokkaido. Pretty good for a free publication, and some good photography and style shots with some familiar faces, including HF. Kind of a weird coincidence with their website URL. I think you can pick it up from the HeadPorterPlus store in Harajuku?

We went to lunch at this little chinese szechuan place down the road. Couldn’t resist when I saw the Kanji - it reads “Son of Dragon”. Food wasn’t too bad, I’ll reccomend the spicy noodles and the Ma-Po Tofu - but a little weird eating Chinese food with Japanese short grain rice.

Coming soon.
