[CLICK IMAGE TO VIEW] All new Friday Film Fest! No one is doing it like this folks. Beautiful content being delivered up from every corner of the map.  As we do on every Friday of the week, we’ve brought together a new boatload of the best in film for your reading pleasure.  We touched on the latest in the form of Takers, to drug classic Blow, and a whole bunch of nonsense in between.  Along with that is the brand new direction, layout, and style of Friday Film Fest that we hope you all will enjoy.  We could just do normal blog posts, but we’re here to give you something more. Be sure to drop comments with feedback!

SPECIAL DOWNLOAD: Due to Matt’s discussion of the Style War’s soundtrack in today’s Cinema Sounds section of Friday Film Fest-we’ve made some special moves to upload the entire soundtrack to the glorious internet for your listening pleasure.  Thank Matt first and foremost and enjoy the sounds. [CLICK HERE TO DOWNLOAD THE STYLE WARS (1977) SOUNDTRACK]

Madbury Music is in overdrive.  The seasoned vets, and a bunch of new writers have picked up pen and pad, or rather mouse and keyboard to deliver a plethora of diverse and amazing sounds.  With no regard to time of release, popularity of artist, or hype in general, Madbury Music is able to bring together glorious sounds for your listening enjoyment.  Whether those sounds be classic Jay-Z, jazz from the 60′s, or the latest and greatest from the indie scene.  It’s all here and it’s all sounding glorious. Take part! Madbury Music.

As Editor/Curator/Master of Ceremony here at Madbury I touch nearly everything that goes out. So having touched and seen every single piece of the site, I can say beyond a shadow of a doubt that this Rock The Bells spread is one of my favorite things to emerge from the halls of The Club.  Absolutely incredible photography from Brook and top notch writing from Matt.  The Madbury family absolutely killed it on this one.  Experience Lauryn Hill, A Tribe Called Quest, Rakim, KRS-One, Wu-Tang and more from the front lines.  No one is doing it better.  Madbury Club live series, walk with us.

Served up hot from the Madbury Music kitchen today is the introduction of an all new post series entitled “In The Crates.” Ellington takes the lead and sets off the proceedings with a look at one of the all time greats where true New York City street rap is concerned.  Without the focus on the glamor and hype, Raekwon the Chef has been crafting street tapestries over beats with grit and wildly diverse imagery.  Take a moment to sit back and appreciate this in depth profile.  All hail the might Wu.

Follow Madbury’s own Phil Annand alongside Joe La Puma and Ronnie Fieg for the release of his brand new Asics collaboration.  One more ode to summer’s end takes place here poolside in Long Island.  Some amazing visuals as well courtesy of Madbury’s own Ellington Hammond. Onwards and upwards as always folks. Innovated! Walk with us.

On an early morning after a late night of work in the Madbury office, we groggily set out for Amsterdam Houses, home to an incredible light green 94-foot outdoor basketball sanctuary. As the rest of the Club started to show up, the pending wave of sleep that lingered above us was immediately expunged as our vision slowly became a reality.  The Asphalt Warriors were about to emerge.

You’ve seen the video. You’ve seen part one of the spread. Now click the image above to step behind the scenes and see how it was all brought to life. READ MORE

My head is still spinning from the madness that ensued at Nigel Sylvester’s 23rd birthday party. Surrounded by Nigel and his countless supporters at the 8 Bond Studio in SoHo, it was impossible for any attendees to claim they didn’t have a good time. Not only was it the talk of Twitter, it completely overshadowed the competition Nigel won at the same location just hours before.

Don’t forget to drop a comment! We truly love to read your reactions!

Annand.  Someone asked us on Twitter what Madbury’s recommendations for rain jackets would be.  Consider this the first part of the answer to that question.  Phil pulls three light Summer jackets from his own closet for this quick rundown and guide to the approaching months where outer shells are concerned.  The Madbury Club Articles are back.   The best product recommendation around.
