Awww shit. There’s a new Keys N Krates video, this comes by way of the Livestock Block Party, which if you happened to miss you should be ashamed of yourself and yes I’m looking a few of you specifically! Anyways the party was hype with DJ Pump and DJ Hedspin doing their thing and then Keys n Krates killing it live for everyone on the block and the next few blocks over for that matter. The clip features some Lionel Ritchie, Janet, Depeche Mode, Michael Jackson, James Brown. On the turntables is DJ Jr-Flo, keyboards is Matisse and on the drums is Adam Tune. Check out the video and then cruise on over to the photos found here. In one of the pictures you can see the drummer Adam Tune playing the drums with no shoes.
This Sunday, the 14th, marks the third annual Livestock Block Party. For us Vancouverites, this pretty much marks the end of our summer and the transition to the Fall season begins. If you haven’t attended the previous block party then I suggest you check it out as it is absolutely bananas. Here’s the info straight from the source:

So a few days ago Van posted the Lupe Fiasco Chucks x Product(Red), which can be read here. Well Livestock in Vancouver and Toronto is dropping the first three pairs of the Converse x Product(Red) line. These shoes can be copped in store or over the phone, and probably eventually over the web should they last that long.
If you’re wondering what’s with all the collabs its because Converse has employed 100 artists to create 100 different designs known as “1Hund(Red)”. These are mad limited so don’t sleep and get out there and cop a pair.
Steve Monti designed this “power in numbers” pictured above.
Hit the jump below for pictures of the other two pairs.
