ACW* x BACARDÍ: Movement by design
A-COLD-WALL* and BACARDÍ present a limited-edition capsule engineered for movement. Featuring Overmono, Mad Miran, Errol and Mia Koden - the campaign, directed by Lucien Parsons, places the people shaping British and European nightlife at its centre and the collection in service of it, with pieces made for a life in constant motion.
Overmono - Tom and Ed Russell
Welsh brothers Tom and Ed Russell front the campaign. A landmark year, marked by their second album Pure Devotion, has cemented Overmono as one of the UK’s most vital live electronic acts. Tom wears ACW*’s signature Balfron Jacket, reworked with webbing straps so it can be worn conventionally, across the body, or over both shoulders. The hands stay free, essentials stay close in zipped pockets, and the shell, cut from a micro ripstop made in Italy, weighs almost nothing worn or carried.
ACW* BACARDÍ presents Overmono
On Wednesday 25 November, ACW* and BACARDÍ take over Village Underground in Shoreditch, London. Overmono perform a live DJ Set, joined by Mia Koden b2b re:ni and MJK, for the first in-person reveal of the capsule. A limited number of free tickets are available via DICE.
Mad Miran - DJ, Amsterdam to Barcelona
Raised in Amsterdam’s club scene and now based in Barcelona, Mad Miran is a Dekmantel regular whose sets refuse a single genre, making her an exciting and unpredictable presence on the European circuit. Her two cities frame the capsule’s City T-shirts: Barcelona, read by graphic artist Gina Guasch, and Amsterdam, by Jonathan Castro. The designs are set across the back of the t-shirts, representing the music and movement that shape each city.
Errol - DJ and founder, Touching Bass
Through Touching Bass, his club night, NTS radio show and independent label, Errol has spent years building a home for soulful and electronic music in South London, UK. It is a practice of curation as much as performance, and one that sits close to ACW*'s own: commissioning, connecting and giving the work room to speak. He wears the London City T-shirt, its back print commissioned from graphic artist Matt Tremaine.
Mia Koden - producer and DJ
Shaped by an upbringing in Ghana and Nigeria and by the sound systems of South London, UK, Mia Koden first came up as one half of electronic music duo Sicaria Sound. Working under her own name, she is now at the forefront of a new generation reshaping dubstep.
