Thesis social jam Session

TSJS Feb edition 2012

2012-01-30T05:10:00.000-08:00

How’s everyone doin’? The jam is back in its rightful place: the 1st Sunday of the month; at the Concept Store. All is well at the THESIS camp; still pushing boundaries & pioneering new social trends. As usual.

As we said before: this year, we aim to unleash the real jammer in all o’ y’all.

This is how it goes; we count down the days till the 5th - connect the sound, prepare the food, price the gear, we check ourselves, you check yourselves and [let’s] get this party started yo!!!

So make yourself available; at all costs. And I can bet you; the Jam is always worth any costs you accumulate.

The game has given you more lives to enjoy your time with us; now press enter and step into the THESIS Lifestyle Space!

Our next Disc Jockey line-up is the best in the game of our kind of music.
We have Trevor the Japanese (Vintage Lounge), PlayKayStat (Ginger Bred), and Sims & Themba (MusicAtLast). These guys are solid and if you know your music; you’ll definitely agree with us. And while they’re spinning the hits; you’ll be chilling on them great couches or showing off your new dance moves – sippin’ on a cold one. Can I get a “HELL YEAH”?!

We also have the Feds - Federation to the unknowing - the ultimate rap duo! Warning: keep your bad ish at home and only bring a good ear to lend. They have been doing their thing for a while now & they a have strong lyrical background. We have hopped quite several times to their hip joints here at the jam; so they back again with new material to offer!

Food and clothes will be sold, music will be played, new people will be met & dope tracks will be rapped.

5 Roses

before

The 5 roses bowl in Mofolo Soweto. One of biggest landmarks of Soweto. From the longest time: it has been the stage of many acclaimed brands & artists in SA. From our parents seeing the old jazz clubs, Sipho “Hotstix” Mabuse, Ray Phiri to us seeing Femi Kuti, Simphiwe Dana, Thandiswa Mazwai, Black Jacks & the list goes on! It was burned down last night & nobody is clueless why & who did such a thing. Many claim a score was settled or somebody was in trouble. Whatever the case was: It was a really cool spot & an injustice was thrown upon the citizens of Soweto. Young & old: it was part of our heritage in the hood! Hopefully, whoever will be given the project to rebuild it must make it as iconic to our kids as it was to our parents & us!!!!

Love & respect!

3 years of Grand Finales

2011-12-02T08:26:00.000-08:00

back in december 2008

Back in 2010 & Public Enemy made a suprise visit. Flavour Flav & Chuck D even gave us a great performance. So a lot of people paid 20 bucks to see them. how about that?!

We have been at it for sometime now. And its been a lot of hard work, closed doors & some opened. We got involved in great projects through out the years. We love what these jams are about. They represent the hood; the streets & everything that’s great about Soweto. It’s the new voice of the strange & the good. The life of us: its people! All Djs that played at the jams were specific choices. You guys came knowing the protocol. All your sets were well appreciated & never made us stand still; you keep the jams going every; single 1st Sunday of the month. Know that if you made an impression on the decks: you will definitely get a call back next year & that’s for real.

The bands were good & bad, but mostly enjoyed the good ones; well for obvious reasons. The melodies that flowed through the crowd like ghostly spirits: made the hairs on our backs stand. The sing-a-longs had the crowds performing to you. Those mesmerizing bridges that had us watching in awe! So for a feeling like that: we thank you! Last, but not least: you the jammers. We really love you guys. Our facebook friends, twitter followers & everyone that has read about us & supported us from day 1 of the jams. You guys are boss & to those that have never missed even 1 jam; 1 love to you all. As the end is nigh: I hope you enjoy the festive season safely and soundly till the next jam in Jan. We’ll still be on this during the festive season. So keep your eyes peeled, but in the meantime its on this Sunday.

The TSJS Grand Finale

2011-11-29T09:24:00.000-08:00

Jam Social Jam Sessions is in the space again. Its summer; it’s the last for the year; so make sure you don’t miss it. You know how we can shake things up in December: for the past 3 years. If the flier is anything to go bonkers for; then the line up will sure make you go to a mental asylum. We got the avant garde messiah; Skindeep on the decks. Talk about two- step, trip, lo-fi with a mix of kwaito in there. Wireless G will also be shining his resident sword. Knighthood of alternative in the bag & recently very busy creative Dj. He probably has something special for everyone on the 4th. Another member of the round table: AirMaxOwe will be on the swish this summer; probably leading us to Japan(I so wish). Cool is an understatement to say anything about AirMaxOwe. He’s a very mature deck operator, the tunes that he plays are no childs play kinda tunes. Coming back home is a thrill for him & for us too. We are waiting for you my brother.

Another son of the sun is the kid. We can proudly say that we are glad to have introduced Kid Fonque to the masses of Soweto. Since then everyone wanted to claim custody. A very good friend of the Jam. Kid Fonque has opened and played after internationals such as Jazzanova (Sonar Kollektiv records Berlin), Dj Krush (Japan), Charles Webster, Fink (Ninja Tune), Luke Solomon (Classic records), Mr Scruff (Ninja Tune), Rainer Truby (Compost records), Gilles Peterson (Radio 1 UK), Darjan (Metro Area), Dj Craze (World DMC Champ 3 years in a row), Dj Naughty (Deejay Gigolos Germany), Ame (Sonar Kollektiv Berlin), Aaron Jerome (If music London), Nick Matthews (best kept secret), Basement jaxx and there’s more to come. soulful, jazzy, freestyle, fresh, and always unpredictable.

On the mic is uber cool mc/stylist: Bhubesi. Who’s also a very busy individual in the music & fashion world. Wordsmith hustler who speaks about social ills in the hood & the streets. Also a good friend of THESIS. He has graced us before as his alter ego George Boundary in his group Take Away. He’s got some new stuff up his sleeve for this Sunday.

Reggae team Tidal Waves is on stage too. The crowd is skanking in unison, bouncing up and down like an irie earthquake of rhythm. The maestro with the guitar stops blowing his harmonica and leans into the microphone and shouts: 'Original Music! For Original People!' The crowd screams back in togetherness. The maestro smiles and hits them with another song. Tidal Waves are widely regarded as the hardest working reggae band in South Africa, playing gigs from Oppikoppi to Pretoria, Cape Town to Potchefstroom and beyond. The band is made up of five very gifted musicians, the core of the group being held together by Jacob 'Zakes' Wulana on guitar, vocals, harmonica and vuvuzela and Sam 'Drumbo' Shoai on vocals and drum kit. The rest of the band is made up of Shadrack “Charlie” Mathopa is on the bass guitar; Johannes “Charlie” Papasha on keyboards, while Jaco “Mr.” Mans wields the lead guitar.

It’s the last jam for the year. We going to have a doctor on site; because its about to get sick. Part of the new summer collection: S.W.A.T gear will be sold in the store. Food & drinks in the house (not on the house). Come lets enjoy, reminisce about the year & welcome the New Year with a bang. Its going to be something special, cos you’re special… ☺

The Jams are back again, just a month before the year’s over. We’ve got another deadly line up and all we can say is that: ‘tis the season of joy & music. Given that it’s summer; it’s time to get your sweat on y’all. 6th November is the date to diarize & Thesis Concept Store is the location for your GPS.

Sai & Ribatone are nothing short of being one of the best duo in Soweto. Sai on the decks & Riba on the keyboard, their delectable sounds will certainly give you something to chew on. This is towards the launch of their much anticipated debut album: Here & Now.

Miz Buttonz is another pioneer in the TSJS sounds; returning to the Jams since her last performance in 2009. She has a magnificent way of playing around with jazz, hip hop & a bit of dubstep, all interconnected. She’s just superb.

A new entry to our awesome Dj line-up is Dubltot. The last time some of the TSJS crew got to listen to him was in Tembisa; at Papa Chillos in 2008. His sound has gotten better since then, it’s guaranteed fire from this cat.

Our band for the day is Season; a 3-piece banger we look forward to having on our new stage. The trio’s different influences range from the soul singer Raphael Saadiq to electro giants Daft Punk, from jazz legend John Coltrane to John Mayer, Ceelo Greene, Arctic Monkey and Musiq Soulchild. Their music is a combination of soul music, jazz, reggae and rock all blended in a familiar but refreshing way.

The comedy society from Pretoria will be supplying a fresh new bunch of comedians to our hood/burb. They go by the names of Rami Rakau & Sipho Moloi - stiches, stiches, stiches, stitches….

Let’s get this show started and open the gates for the festive season. Don’t forget that the new THESIS summer 2011 range will be in store, so brace yourself. Things will never be the same again.

Adidas versus Puma: Origins of a rivalry between brothers

2011-09-30T06:49:00.000-07:00

At the opening whistle of a 1970 World Cup finals match, Pelé stopped the referee with a last-second request to tie his shoelaces and then knelt down to give millions of television viewers a close-up of his Pumas.

Pelé was complying with a request by Puma's representative, Hans Henningsen, to raise the company's profile after receiving $120,000 to wear the shoes.

This clandestine advertising was a huge triumph for Puma over Adidas in the early days of the battle for market supremacy in sports merchandise.

Barbara Smit, a Dutch author and journalist, spent five years poring over the archives at Adidas's and Puma's headquarters in the Bavarian town of Herzogenaurach to research Rudolf and Adolf Dassler, the brothers who started making sports shoes in their mother's laundry room in the 1920s before becoming sport and business giants.

Her new book, "Drei Streifen gegen Puma," or "Three Stripes Versus Puma," tracks the rise of the Dassler brothers during Germany's sport-obsessed 1920s, their cooperation with the Nazis, their ugly postwar split and their hatred-driven competition that created separate empires.

This clandestine advertising was a huge triumph for Puma over Adidas in the early days of the battle for market supremacy in sports merchandise.

"As embittered rivals, the estranged brothers led their respective companies to the top of the world," Smit wrote. "Muhammad Ali, Franz Beckenbauer and Zinédine Zidane became legends in the three stripes of Adidas while soccer god Pelé and Boris Becker achieved global fame in Pumas."

The book chronicles the decline of Adidas (founded by Adolf "Adi" Dassler) and Puma (founded by Rudolf Dassler) as they were caught off guard by Nike and the failure to spot new trends like the boom in running.Adidas and Puma have recovered from their brushes with disaster as publicly owned companies in the vibrant $17 billion worldwide sports shoe industry, but only after long and messy separations from their family owners.

"I was fascinated by the mixture of this incredible family rift, the business feud and the sporting triumphs, which forged two mighty brands recognized all over the world," Smit said of her book, which draws on U.S. intelligence documents and more than 200 interviews conducted around the world.

Although most of the two companies' production moved to low-cost countries long ago, handmade shoes for some big names, like David Beckham, are still produced in Germany.

THESIS birthday tea party

2011-09-27T05:14:00.000-07:00

THESIS was born on the 27 August 2005. It was born in the concrete streets( yes, they were not dusty) of Soweto. In almost the center of this magical place of Soweto, surrounded Phiri, Mapetla, Zola, Emdeni, Dube, White City & Dobsinville! We fell in love with it; got together & spread the love!

Instead of having another big ass party: we had a tea party & we shot it! Just a little something to remind us how we were when we young! The story is Alices in Sowetoland! It’s a love story & the rest is history.

It’s a mixture of our new spring/summer collection titled SWAT- Special Wear & Arts Team & other items in the THESIS apparel! It’s an appreciation of the artisans in our broad industry. A musician with a mic, a poet with words, graffiti artist with a spray can & an illustrator with pictures! Like the real SWAT (Special Weaponry & Arms Tactics): they have their own special weapons to combat creative situations!

And don’t we just love them!

Junk On Thesis

If the calender is anything to go by, then the next first Sunday of the month is drawing closer and there’s nothing else to chew over but the Jam Session. Palm-slap to the forehead, anyone? This time around though, we are bringing you something fresh and different. A new flavour for your taste buds while staying true to the original.

In its 3 years running; the Thesis Social Jam Sessions (TSJS) have been regularly held at the THESIS Concept Store, with the pure tenacity of bringing something innovational to the hood-burb. The aim has always been to offer something new to the Soweto street culture and pep things up in a way nobody has ever experienced. Amid the jams; various bands, artists & djs from in and around Soweto, the rest of Mzansi and other parts of the world have graced us with their noteworthy talents. The Jams have been an astounding success and undeniably made a mark in the South African youth subculture.

On the 2nd of October 2011, TSJS is pairing up with another equally successful trailblazer - JunkOnMe Family. Neat idea; we know. Infact it’s been a long time coming!

The JunkOnMe outfit is best known as one of the pioneers of the house music scene in Soweto. They’ve been throwing kick-ass parties for the past six years and counting, and have hosted the likes of Vinny da Vinci, Culoe de Song, Black Coffee, Christos, China, Claude and Vikter Duplaix, just to name a few. A concept born out of urban chill, the JunkOnMe Sunday Sessions kicked the scene into a “chilled-and-hectic” mode - with the movement being recognised as the ultimate place to listen to fine, clean and proper (yeah, it’s one and the same) house music. The Junk family is currently running the 30 Something’s Assembly - a bi monthy celebration of the lifestyle enjoyed by today’s black middle-class youth, offering an all round experience that’s more than just intoxicants. Comfortable, social, stylish.

Now we’ve been deep in the doldrums of our minds trying to get this joint event going. And 10 meetings, 55 emails, and 227 phone calls later, the JunkonMe/Thesis Social Jam Sessions collabo is now a reality.

In celebration of all things summer; pack those baskets ‘cos it’s picnic time! Our outdoor inspiration is the huge cultural village in Power Park, so get ready to lay out your blanket and set stage for an awesome line-up.

Vikter Duplaix is in the country and will be rockin’ the mic; along with the new, freshly grounded Maleh.
On the decks; Party People’s Dj Khenzero; Playkaystat on the hiatus, TSJS resident Wireless G; the smooth-rolling Nhlangano and the deep insider, Dj China.

• It’s a picnic folks, and obviously an all day event. Rock up from 12 noon.
• Joburg is hot but there’ll be some relevant gear @ the Thesis Pop-up Store
to help you escape the heat. Cop yourself some.
• R50 gives you right of entry.

A beautiful park, awesome peeps, stimulating music, good food and thirst quenching ice-cold ones. Come join us, there’ll be fresh air too.

Entry is R50.
Food, drinks and everything else will be available at the venue.

On the Decks:
Wireless G

Thesis Trend spotting: Maxi dresses spring 2011

2011-09-15T03:41:00.000-07:00

A Maxi dress is an informal lengthy dress for women. They are the perfect dress for summer as they flow, light and very comfortable. The best part is that they are suitable for all body types, they are generally fit at the top and flow at the bottom.Although maxi dresses are made for tall women, short women can also wear them with some suitable wedge heels. Maxi dresses are in THESIS Clothing's spring/summer range, they come in solid colors, tie-die, printed, denim and many more! Look out for them at Thesis Concept Store this spring.

Belt: model's own

In the heat of summer

2011-09-14T04:50:00.000-07:00

In the midst of summer we have a battle of the fans. ceiling fans, standing fans & rugby fans. To keep a cool head make sure you get to be the right one! Our team is defending the Web Ellis cup in New Zealand for the third time! We very proud to have won our nail biting 1st game against Wales. What a scorcher! Hopefully we will stand the test of time, till the final!

Until then we are behind you all the way BOKKE!!!

i hope these will be flying high with pride
