Coming-of-Age at NYFW

TAYLORE SCARABELLI REPORTS FROM SS18 For SS18, the heavy hitters of New York Fashion seemed to trade innovation for Instagram attention. From Alexander Wang’s overhyped afterparty to Rihanna’s motocross-inspired runway, mass-marketing was in. But in an era where speed rules and trends turn over almost weekly, it feels as though big brand designers are the…

Tasseomancy Does Japan!

PHOTOS & TEXT BY ROMY LIGHTMAN OF TASSEOMANCY Over the summer, my sister and I, along with our angelic drummer, had the privilege of travelling to Japan for a month to play music across the country. Though there’s much I could write on, I’ve decided to keep my words minimal and light. One thing I’d like…

Let’s Talk With Kiera

The 4th installment of Kiera McNally’s very own advice column. Published in issue 17. Thanks to everyone who wrote in, and sorry to anyone we missed!  Hi Kiera, what are your thoughts on open relationships? Is it possible to love more than one person at the same time? Or is one person in said situation bound to…

Premiere: Gobby’s Northeastern Promises

Gobby’s music evokes a cartoonish sense of possibility, where the laws of physics don’t apply and people and things can stretch like elastic bands. Noisy, electronic, and approaching ominous, an intuitive pop sensibility permeates the mental-as-hell music he makes. In his newest track “Northeastern Promises”—a nine-minute amuse-bouche for his electronic-opera double LP EL HONKO MIXED forthcoming on…

Premiere: White Poppy’s Hypnotized

Today we return to our longtime musical crush White Poppy (Crystal Dorval) to premiere her latest video “Hypnotized.” Filmed and edited by the artist herself, Crystal tells us the video takes inspiration from the world of bad self-made music videos, and if you look closely you may find her Grandpa accidentally walking through her shots. In “Hypnotized,” Crystal channels a…

Trevor Baird: New Ceramics

Trevor Baird is at the forefront of the New Ceramics movement. That’s a movement I just made up, but it starts now and consists of ceramics like you’ve never seen them before. These aren’t the sleek, unapproachable art-objects you might find in the living room of a childless professional couple, nor the typical hobby creation of a…

DJ Frankie Teardrop comes in hot and heavy with their latest mix “Any Life You Want” made exclusively for Editorial Magazine ears! If you don’t know Frankie Teardrop, it must mean you’ve never left the house, or cobwebs have sealed your eyes shut.

Shoot the Breeze: Jheyda McGarrell

“The best advice I’ve ever been given was to let pain and hurt teach me instead of making me bitter,” says NYC based photographer, Jheyda M. This astute and simultaneously affable ideology is a distinct thread that runs through her photography as well—intimate moments, snapshots of friends and strangers. Jheyda’s photos are remarkably serene as…

Premiere: Pelada’s Desatado

Today we premiere the latest video from Montreal electronic duo Pelada. Producer Tobias Rochman and vocalist Chris Vargas came up in the Montreal afterhours scene, and have since played internationally at raves in Chicago, Prague, Paris, Moscow, and more. Pelada borrows from classic Chicago Acid house and Detroit techno, but combines the sounds with hard and…

Shoot the Breeze: Camille Rouzaud

Camille Rouzaud’s photographs are visceral, rough, intimate, and voyeuristic. Her vision tends to focus on the exuberance of youth, though it is tempered by a kind of remote detachment, articulated in high-contrast color and what often looks like digital grain. Rouzaud’s work is like a memory of adolescence, defined by a quality of freedom which…

André Ethier + Jasmine Reimer @ Projet Pangée

Today we visit Montreal’s Projet Pangée to catch their latest exhibition André Ethier + Jasmine Reimer. “Freedom” was the first word that came to mind when observing these works, and what followed was some kind of mix of artist-envy and excitement. I wish I could make art like this. Both Ethier and Reimer’s work appears to be free from…
