Live: FADER 60 Issue Release Party
- story THE FADER
To celebrate the release of issue #60 (Spring Style), we blew up a bunch of FADER fashion favorites, put them on the wall and invited New Jersey’s 36-million-man crew Brick Bandits to play a heavy selection of classics (and two Kriss Kross songs) and remixes. We danced, we ogled and we drank many Budweiser American Ales. Ice, sleet, snow and frigid rain could not prevent this night of solid bros and good times. Check some pics from the party after the jump.
Freeload: The FADER Issue 60 Podcast

Because this is the Style Issue and we couldn’t figure out a way to turn clothing into sound, we decided it would be just as good if we had our pal DJ Rezound put together a collection of the music that was featured in the issue. That music includes a new age love song from Bat for Lashes, Beirut’s collaboration with Teotitlan del Valle’s Banda Jimenez, Gen F jams from San Francisco’s Girls (featuring no actual girls), Nite Jewel, Assassin, Brick Bandits, Sholi and a whole bunch more. As always, download the mix for free below, check the tracklist after the jump and don’t forget to read the magazine that it goes with, available for free download here, or available for a $5.99 physical download from some guy at the magazine store’s hands into your own hands.

For our Spring Style issue, we combed the earth for the bangingest shorts, skirts, skorts, vests, carry-alls and Cavalli pumps this season could possible offer. This fashion scouring sojourn had us clocking our usual frequent flier miles in places like Santo Domingo, DR, and Teotitlan del Valle where we photographed Banda Jimenez, the marching band our back cover star Zach Condon bka Beirut collaborated with for March of the Zapotec. On the front, Natasha Khan, leader of Bat for Lashes, strikes a balance between passionate changeling and deeply style inclined, as evidenced by the wolf mask she is wearing for a beret. We are spending the next 38 days with her crystalline second album Fur and Gold on repeat, and you should join us. Well, that and the rest of the bananas features we packed into this issue: Nicki Minaj! Brick Bandits! Assassin! Girls! Nite Jewel! Menswear designer Patrik Ervell! Sholi! SO much more, and SO free for download below.
