Do the Funky Headphone
Headphones don’t need to be boring. Not with such interesting package designs like earphones
presented in the shape of music notes from Panasonic. For something with a little more attitude,
you can opt for these cute and affordable LEGO brick earphones from Elecom. They are about to
be released in Japan and come in an irresistible collection of colours. If you’re super keen, you can
channel your inner child and create your own Lego headphones for that retro, unique edge.

Carola Christian is a versatile performer and singer. She is an
incredibly passionate and distinct vocalist with
a commanding voice. With a broad
range of deep haunting vocals to
screaming soprano, Carola has the
ability to move her velvety tones
thru raw sensuality to gutsy power.
Together with ‘The Dirty Funk
Affair’ they produce a unique
sound fusion of Rock, Soul & Pop
with a strong retro vibe succumbing
to affairs with Latin and wayward
romances with Funk...creating an
eclecticism that makes them hard to
categorise. Friday at the Rails.
