INTERVIEW WITH MASOMENOS
They set up a temporary studio inside Hôtel Costes. Temporary became permanent. Three years on: eight albums, sixteen EPs, MidiMinuit — three days, zero rehearsals, all improvised in a Kreuzberg loft with a B-Steinway and a Studer console. Ricardo Villalobos has already claimed Glacial as the album of his dreams. Kirk Lightsey came at 80 and played with the enthusiasm of a newcomer.
Adventures with Model Karina Leps
She started as a basketball player and ended up on Harper's Bazaar covers and Paris test shoots with David Bellemere. Estonian model Karina Leps — now an agent, sometime adventurer, and aspiring stunt double — shares what it really means to feel everything deeply.
“Visibility has never been our measure of significance. We seek out artists and inspiring individuals whose work sparks curiosity, challenges assumptions, and leaves a lasting impression.”
