Gucci Presents ‘Wild Days and Nights in Rome’ Film Directed by Glen Luchford

The 70s are in full swing in terms of fashion and with Gucci's new Spring/Summer 2017 Campaign, the company enlist photographer Glen Luchford to direct their new short film 'Wild Days and Nights in Rome'. Aside from lions, tigers and giraffes calmly being petted and fed, the models trek the Roman streets with the brand drawing inspiration from figures such as American-born artist Cy Twombly who adopted Rome as his home and Italian actress Laura Betti.

Rodion Set to Release ‘Generator’ LP

For years we have dubbed Italian musician Rodion as one of the kings of the nu-disco scene. The classically trained pianist who released his 'Romantic Jet Dance' album back in 2007 on Gomma, has also dropped a slew of singles including a few records with fellow Italian disco conneseur Bottin. On April 1st, Rodion will release his new LP 'Generator' on Nein Records. Consisting of ten tracks in total, the album features Rome-born Rodion exploring further aspects of space-out disco, iced with pure hedonism. Dark, skittering effects are intertwined with freaky synth playing, often times seeming suitable for treks to outter space or all-night party sessions at the Playboy mansion. What remains at a high throughout the LP are the compositions and arrangement themselves.
