1999 - PART 3.

Angelo Azzurro

By Giulio Scalisi

Original soundtrack by 72-Hour Post Fight

1999 is a multidisciplinary project presented by Slam Jam, which explores the myth of the New Millennium specifically in relation to Milan’s youth culture.

Curated by KALEIDOSCOPE, the project brings together a new video commission by French filmmaker Baptiste Penetticobra, a performance by Amsterdam-based artist and choreographer Michele Rizzo, and an animated billboard by Milan-based digital artist Giulio Scalisi.

Milan-based artist Giulio Scalisi (Italian, b. 1992) has created Angelo Azzurro, a 3d-rendered video work inspired by late-90s videogame aesthetics. The original score by Milanese musicians 72- HOUR POST FIGHT pays homage to the seminal 1999 hip-hop anthem “Street Opera” by cult-status producer Fritz Da Cat.

Innovation born out of frustration. Roy and Ryan Seiders founded Yeti in 2006, when they could not find high-end, durable products that could support their outdoor endeavors. Years later, a loyal following ranks Yeti Rambler as the best reusable bottle on the market. If you  were to think about one, that’s the one you are thinking about and that’s the one we hacked. 

The Slam Jam Yeti is made to survive the struggle and makes you look pro. If we’re honest, when was the last time you touched grass? Fall just started and we need a faithful companion to navigate this concrete jungle. 

It can keep anything hot or cold, for hours on end. Coffee, your unhealthy lunch, herbal teas and whatever else you can shove in it. It doesn’t matter, as long as you keep on grinding. 

Whatever it is that the day throws at you, is going to be met with 18/8 stainless steel.
