If you have ever owned an Institubes tee shirt, you know about SIXPACK. If not, allow me a moment to try to conceal my disappointment.
Sixpack (.fr) is a tee shirt label based in the south of France issuing two collections every year with designs by the world greatest illustrators including friends like Akroe, Gaspirator, Ill Studio, KRSN, So Me, personal favourites such as La Boca, Noah Butkus, Steven Harrington, Parra, Huskmitnavn and many others. The upcoming collection includes great surprises and artworks from bona fide legends whose illustrous names (I’m not bluffing, you have no idea how big this is) I can’t disclose right now. They also manufacture our official tee shirts (glow-in-the-dark logo, Surkin tee, Para One tee...) since day one.

Akroe (he did our logo and all the designs of Institubes’ early years, in case you haven’t read this) did a whole collection featuring tees, sweaters and jackets called THE FUTURE, and ORGASMIC did a beat, Teki wrote some lyrics about his clothing obsessions and BOOM! there you go: an anthem.

(this is Orgasmic wearing a sweater from the Future collection and some naked chick as shoulder padding)

You see, when labels such as Sixpack and Institubes are so close, them doing something together can’t be called a collaboration: it’s a child. And a spoiled one at that.

(Orgasmic again, with the naked chick acting this time as a safety belt)

There are three versions on the EP.
The original song, by TEKITEK (aka Teki Latex from TTC).
The Harvard Bass remix (more on that one later this week).
Orgasmic’s Lay Low remix feat. E.Mackey.

The latter is the one we’re sharing with you today. 

Edwin Mackey is a vibe singer, producer and clothing designer hailing from Tallahassee, FL. He describes his own Pop-Hop style as “some Pop music with Southern Rap drum patterns and Miami Bass”. We say long live Pop-Hop.

The Sixpack Anthem EP is available right now on iTunes, with the proper vinyl release coming in a few weeks.
