CITISCAPE PHILOSOPHY My city. My space. My music. Every city has its own unique personality, but the world’s greatest cities share common traits. They have a distinct aesthetic and a dynamic vibe born from the fusion of diverse cultures, and they pulsate with the aspirations and energies of its people. The CitiScape Collection takes inspiration from today’s most vibrant cities and their musicloving urbanites who add color and cadence to everyday life.
CO-CREATION You spoke, and we listened. Simply because you are the heart and soul, the mover and shaker, of the amazing city you live in. Inspired, we made you a partner and collaborator in our creative journey to design headphones that look, feel and sound exceptional. And that you would be proud to wear. Wherever you are, whatever you’re doing–escaping, switching off or turning it up –your CitiScape headphone is essentially a part of your everyday life. Just like your city.
Where is home for you? “I am from London, I’ve lived here all my life, I love London and I could never leave. There’s always a vibe. It’s always busy, lot’s of culture, some partying, it’s just brilliant.” What do you do for a living? “I DJ and I produce music. During the day I make music on the laptop, sometimes I go into the studio when I have to record a musician etc. Then at night I am either DJ-ing or performing stand up comedy in dingy clubs.
Where is home for you? “I live in Harlem, in Spanish Harlem actually, in New York City.” Describe your life in New York? “Life in New York is really fun, I have a lot of friends and we do a lot of on the fly things. I love to find inconspicuous little boutiques and hidden stores to uncover that coat or hat that totally transforms my fashion life. I enjoy meeting up with different circles of friends for ethnic dinners, experimental art shows, Broadway plays or walks in the city.
