Ok...its arguably been a long minute since we posted a review to our website...last May..actually, that does not mean we are sleeping, weve been part of and have thrown about a trillion shows since then...just been a lil slow on the picture posting..So we are about to hit you with a super mega review...this review starts with the Las Vegas Magic Trade Show,continues to the Puma "Detox" show, then we figured we'd sprinkle you with a lil SXSW 2007, and bring it home with the Amazing Clipse show @ Emo's.

Also be sure to check the website www.mofozvisualz.com or www.myspace.com/txmofoz real soon for new clothing, custom kicks, as well as Acrylic Leather Paint...yes , we are now selling Acrylic Leather paint for all of you budding or experienced shoe customizers.

Enjoy.

We met our main man Solomon of Phantaz Clothing and Toys in Las Vegas for the Magic Trade Show. Our man had a booth at the internationally known fashion show, and we were there to help out and show support for the ATX clothing line.

The show was ill, both our first and Phantazm's first jump into the big ring. We ran across a lot of cool designers, a lot of horrible ones, and way way way too many full printed t's and hoodies.

We also ran into a ninja running around the scene, befriended him, and dubbed him the Phanatazm ninja--peep the mascot taking pics with everyone under the sun, including Katt Williams, Tash of the Alcoholics, Flava Flav, and our favorite ATX shop owners John (Juan) and April (Abril) Gomi of Gomi Botique.

Notable designers (aside from the Mofoz and Phantazm empires) included Foreign Family outa LA. Cali, some really fresh designs from Dissizitt (the owner Slick was cool as ice) , and Garbege (NY).

The trip was well worth whatever change we scraped up before the flight...and ultimately lost.

 

So. roughly a few weeks or so while vigilantly planning some SXSW goodness for the austin heads , we were invited to be a part of the Puma "Detox" show.

Essentially this was a concert by our bo, Phranchyze 1 and producer John Vice. We were honoired to lace a few puma customs for the show...check em check em out.

 

So with the Puma show behind us , we finially could focus on the impending SXSW 2007...we had a lil something up our sleeves along with Phranchyze, Kris Krishna , Prhymemates, and Matt Sonzala...which would later become the Bad Boy power drink showcase at the Compound. (Thanks guys..you energized many a festival-goer) We presented music from The Word Association, Chicago's Pugslee Atomz, Dynamic Vibrations, and Phranchyze 1 and Zeale 32. The open free bar and endless music was courtesy of Envy magazine. we ran into Devin the Dude and company who presented a listening party for his new CD, "Waiting to Inhale" Really hot CD and really good people , that Devin is. Cop it.

We also had the opportunity to paint at The Levi's and The Fader Party along with Option, Thic, Mr.Slick, and Phantazm...the pieces were sick and complemented the four day party that boasted performances by Amy Winehouse, The Fratellis, Redman and Swizz Beats.

We also had a chance to paint for the Green organization NRDC's party -unfortunately it almost rained out, but it was a good time nonetheless.

Other highlights of the week include the amazing art show at Gallery Lombardi entitled "Draw" . Draw showcased drawings and art from over 100 international artists including Clive Barker and local painting genius Mez 1.

So here we are ..post SXSW--totally exhausted and somewhat accomplished..hell we saw Public Enemy twice in a week : BTW Houston was a smaller crowd but a bigger sound. Mad props to Warehouse Live...but i digress, , the Clipse were about to play Austin thanks to Emos and Elevated Entertainment. We'd been looking forward to this show for a long time, and some of our favorite mc's were opening for them--Phranchyze 1 and The Word Association. All parties kicked ass....Clipse murdered the set...I have a new found love for the ATX.....that is all....enjoy the pics.
