Treacle 012 is by none other than Secret Wars artist Dirty30. T011 and T012 have only...

Interview #58 - Alpinestars x FatKidOnFire
It’s been a fair while since we last had a proper brand feature here at FatKidOnFire. Our makeitgood x FKOF series has started to properly take off, but today we get to go back to basics and get the lowdown on another brand. The next brand to feature here at FKOF are probably one of the biggest we’ve had the chance to talk to. They started in the ’60s in Northern Italy and have...

FatKidOnFire goes international...
FatKidOnFire has always been about supporting the underground. With the FKOF movement (if you can call it that) forever growing and extending across the world, I come across countless likeminded people who see the world in the same sort of way. An example of such a person would be my boy Brandon who goes by the fameONE moniker.
fameONE is soul invested in the pulsing heart of the city. Growing...

makeitgood x FatKidOnFire #25 - Jamie Rodigan...
If you remember back to one of our posts four days before Christmas, you’ll have noticed that we alluded to the possibility of an extremely exciting makeitgood x FatKidOnFire feature.

makeitgood x FatKidOnFire #24 - OPT1K
We first caught the next guest Dj/ producer through our old friends Black Milk. Nathan “OPT1k” Spooner produced a sensational mix and we’ve kept tabs on him since we first heard it in August. When we crossed paths again recently, we got him down for this next makeitgood x FatKidOnFire interview and mix. OPT1K’s mix is an awesome blend of all sub-genres of dubstep and we...

Remember Jilted Royalty? Jay Read’s clothing company have been marking serious moves on our independent clothing scene here in the UK. Having only been releasing his collection recently, the range already consists of 4 crews, six tees and a beanie. Jay’s now expanding the brand to cater for the ladies.

Interview #57 - Vapour x FatKidOnFire
We’ve welcomed 2011 with open arms, had a few new makeitgood x FatKidOnFire interviews (and mixes) and a re-interview and it’s now time to drop the first FKOF brand feature for the new year. It’s good to be back! This next brand is steeped in extreme sports and create apparel around their three main inspirations; music, art and sport. We reckon they’re definitely a brand...

makeitgood x FatKidOnFire #23 - Jestah
We’re all about celebrating home grown talent here at FatKidOnFire. This applies to clothing brands or Djs or producers. The next makeitgood x FKOF feature and exclusive mix is from a young Dj who’s got some mad decent skills spinning vinyl (as his mix shows) and who is starting to cut his teeth in the production game. Given time, Bristol’s Jestah will be a force to be reckoned...

Re-Interview #3 - One Forty Five South x...
After our second re-interview with F2D Clothing at the start of December, we figured we’d start 2011 off with a catch up with another of the brands to feature on the original FatKidOnFire site six months ago.
Chicago’s One Forty Five South was the sixteenth brand to feature here at the first FKOF. Chaz’s brand has continued to grow with their latest collections (due January and March)...
