Our New Office?

Sole Power recently moved offices and we couldn’t be happier with the change. Great location, sleek, modern and fun our new office is a great place to work. There is one place in Huainan City , China however that makes us even a little jealous. Take a look below…coolest concept for an office ever? Maybe, but it must be pretty hard to tune.

A Sucker For Toronto

Ya, I know. Just a short while ago, we posted a blog entry about Toronto, but when you live in one of the greatest cities in the world why not embrace it?  This Pet Shop Boys parody has a few hilarious Toronto stereotypes and some clever lyrics to boot. If you don’t enjoy the song (might not be everyone’s cup of tea) you can at least say “hey I know that spot”. (That’s really mostly what I did.)

Let’s Not Forget The Classics

This past weekend saw Jeremy Evans crowned this year’s slam dunk king… And for good reason.

He was the best on the night (not bad for a last minute replacement), but to be honest he fell short of what the last decade and a half has brought us. We can applaud Evans for his work, but also take some time to remember those that brought us out of our seat.

Keys N Krates Get Some MTV Iggy Love

If you wanna stay ahead of the game when it comes to music news a stop at MTVIGGY is a must on your daily internet browsing. Stopped by the site today? You might have noticed some Torontoian flavour as our own Keys N Krates got some much deserved love from the hit site. If you haven’t seen the live remixers yet, put that on the top of your to-do list.

Wool: The New Spray Paint

Are the days of “tagging” done?  The newest craze in street art is “Knitta”, adding some colour and flare to the world with needles and thread. Moral of the story: My grandmother would make a pretty good street artist.

Best 25 Cents Ever Spent

You can’t get much for a quarter these days…unless you’re walking along Queen St to the new Pinball Cafe which houses retro pinball games (I’m pretty sure I held a high-score at the old Video Invasion). Pretty cool idea to bring back the kid in anyone that played these games religiously or for kids now that want to try something a little harder than Nintendo DS.

Scary Or Awesome?

One of the latest “fashion statements” ( I really should be using that term extremely loosely), is spandex. No not bicycle shorts of the 80s but full-out stretchy body suits. We love having our staff wear them at events to either entertain guests (or scare young children).  Plus you can’t tell who it is so getting embarrassed is a non-factor. Hilarious.

Raptor’s Fans Have Sole

Sports are great to watch. Some of the world’s best athletes competing against each other. The other great thing is when someone in the crowd catches your eye. Whether a crazy sign, a costume or a guy with amazing seats wearing your company t-shirt. We like it all.

Wanna Win A Grammy? Head To Scratch Lab

If you’re Canadian and want to bring home the hardware, seems like Scratch Lab DJ Institute might be a great place to start…at least that’s what this CBC News Story seems to think. We couldn’t agree more.

Almost As Good As “I GOT SOLE”

We love getting compliments on any new SP T-Shirt. Since we know how good it feels, we figured we’d pay it forward to Deadmau% who definitely deserves a kudos for his shirt last night at the Grammys. Somewhere Skrillex is pissed.
