Continuing their reverence for the music world, PLEASURES has reconnected with Roland for a limited edition clothing collaboration. In association with Roland Lifestyle, the Los Angeles-based streetwear label celebrates Mo’Wax and UNKLE with founder James Lavelle. The special range highlights the influence of Mo’Wax and UNKLE along with the history of Roland’s music team.
James Lavelle stands as a music pioneer, disrupting ’90s UK underground music through an interdisciplinary approach with record label Mo’Wax and music team, UNKLE. Lavelle’s personal connections intersected with music, fashion and art, paving the way for today’s collaborative culture by pushing boundaries.
The Roland Lifestyle x PLEASURES Mo’Wax/UNKLE collaboration features carefully crafted streetwear essentials headlined by an array of letterman jacket styles punctuated by artwork by Eric Haze. Other items include co-branded hoodies, t-shirts and caps, references to the Roland Boutique TB-03 bass line, and items from everyone involved.
“Roland products have always been a part of my musical journey,” said James Lavelle, founder of Mo’Wax and UNKLE. “Teaming up with my friends at PLEASURES and Roland to launch this beautiful project is a reminder of why collaborative creation is so important and a testament to the powerful intersection that music and fashion create.”
“The kind of impact that Roland, Mo’Wax, UNKLE and James Lavelle have had on music and culture is what inspired us to start PLEASURES,” said Vlad Elkin, co-founder of PLEASURES. “Collaborations that honor the legacy of people and brands are part of our ethos, and it has been an honor to bring together an eclectic group of brands and people for this capsule collection.”
“Bringing music, fashion and art together to launch a capsule collection and produce a show that celebrates the impact of these iconic brands is a legacy in the making,” said Nathan Chandra, founder of Roland Lifestyle. “It has been an incredible experience to be a part of this project, and the care that has been put into this collaboration is an indication of how much respect all parties involved in this initiative have for each other.”
The Roland Lifestyle x PLEASURES Mo’Wax/UNKLE collaboration will be presented at Roland’s flagship in London on October 12 with a free Outernet concert. The PLEASURES Soundsystem Concert Series in collaboration with Mo’Wax will feature DJ James Lavelle and special guests, free general tickets will be available through DICE and VIP tickets will be available through Roland’s flagship in London from 8-12 October.
Following a pre-release preview on October 12, the full Roland Lifestyle x PLEASURES Mo’Wax/UNKLE collaboration will be available on the PLEASURES website on October 15.
