Crazy Birds

A 21st century guide to new music, art, media and lifestyle. In a digital world where so many new things can be discovered, this is the place where the good things in life collide.

Digital Playground

Crazy Birds started out as a digital business card for Amsterdam based entrepreneur Gijs van der Togt, trained as an urban sociologist and experienced in media, concept development and (copy) writing. After working for several media companies, the urge to develop something new emerged. Crazy Birds, a daily updated digital playground for a savvy audience was born. Nowadays fuelled with help from contributors in media, music, fashion and art.

Partnerships

There’s no good content without smart partnerships. For us, collaboration is crucial. Therefore, we are always on the look out for promising artists creating new, exciting things. Crazy Birds is a platform for advertising agencies, media companies, record companies and ofcourse brands to highlight their products. Do mind we only curate good things. Check the projects section for more information.

Meet Mayer Hawthorne

When we found out promising soul artist Mayer Hawthorne was in town, we got excited and decided to do a short film about him with help from our friends at Mamamess and Rush Hour.

Viral

We strongly believe in content-driven short films, made from the heart. Because we discovered this artist in an early stage, the amount of attention from various print magazines and internet-media was overwhelming.

F-Com was altijd mijn favoriete Franse label. Aan het begin van de 21e eeuw ben ik zelfs bij eigenaar Laurent Garnier langs geweest. Vriendelijke man, prachtig huis, ongelooflijk veel sushi gegeten. Toch keek ik in die tijd ook met een schuin oog naar Versatile, de concurrent. En dan vooral naar I:Cube. Een Franse producer die sfeervolle downtempo en deep house maakt. Binnenkort komt hij met nieuw werk uit, waaronder de tracks Silence en Comme Des Esprits. Ze doen me terugverlangen naar de stad, haar prachtige geluiden en verloren hotelkamers. Na de jump een mixtape van Joakim (zie foto), ook van Versatile Records. Een label dat ik nooit zal vergeten.
