Nike Air Flight Huarache Colorways

The Nike Air Flight Huarache has history infused in basketball history. What probably comes to mind is the Michigan Wolverines Fab 5 wearing them during the 90s. Through the years we have seen various color options and modifications, but for 2017 we will have the Nike Air Flight Huarache Ultra.

Originally thought to be labeled as the 2017, the updated Nike Air Flight Huarache now has a new lacing system along with a jacquard knitted toe. The neoprene bootie is once again back but the midsole and outsole has a new look.

Pink Floyd’s Dark Side of the Moon console will be used to record music again

by Scott Wilson

The legedary piece of studio gear isn’t being retired yet.

The recording console used to make Pink Floyd’s Dark Side of the Moon that sold at auction for a record-breaking $1.8 million last week will record music again, The Vinyl Factory reports.

Katherine Schofield at London auction house Bonhams, which made the sale, told The Vinyl Factory that part of the appeal for the mystery buyer “was the excellent condition of the console and that it is in working order.”

While the console was listed as a piece of rock ‘n’ roll memorabilia, Schofield revealed that the buyer wants to use it to keep making music.

“The majority of firm interest we received from interested buyers of the console were actively hoping to continue to use it in a modern recording studio context,” she said. “The successful buyer is hoping to do the same.”

The EMI TG12345 MK IV console was originally valued at $700,000.
