James Massiah joins the Zoom call on a bike, coffee in one hand, phone in the other. Fragments of London flash by, jagged, disjointed, buzzing in grey – reminding me of the texture of Massiah’s music.

“My butthole is sweating,” was the verbatim proclamation I distinctly remember overhearing as I was exiting a sweltering concert of Deki Alem a while back. The rest of the crowd carried a similar air around them: sticky, euphoric, simultaneously worn-out and energised. This is the Deki Alem experience in a nutshell – a sonic explosion that leaves no one untouched.

The Mostro is back, and it's the sneaker's boldest revival yet. PUMA’s cult-favourite – once an underground gem for sneakerheads in the know – has stepped back into the spotlight with a wild streak and a fresh new face: Amelia Gray. PUMA’s Mostro sneaker has always defied convention – a hybrid of '60s sprint spikes and '80s surf shoes, wrapped in a silhouette that’s as much streetwear as it is subculture.
