We start bringing you the first interesting product previews from the Bread & Butter tradeshow, that took off in Berlin today. WeSC continues to bring interesting new headphone styles, but raised the bar and brought Medicom Toy into the mix. They presented a series of headphones in collaboration with the Japanese toy company, who produced matching Bearbricks, as well as some Medicom Fabrick canvas accessories. The WeSC headphones were already very popular before, but this is definitely a nice addition to the offering. Overall there will be 4 sets from this series.

After the jump a complete look at the WeSC x Medicom Toy Headphones and Bearbricks.

Hoon’s first collaboration is staying true to its luxury street wear roots by working with The Perfect Unison, a young french brand of top-range audio item. You might have heard about the brand before, as their first collaboration was with Dutch artist Parra.

This association has created Hoon x The Perfect Unison headphones – a new generation headphones that bring luxury and technical expertise together. The headphones are made to measure using both the newest technical methods and traditional French techniques.

The frame is made from nine layers of birch wood and covered in python skin on the exterior side and goat skin on the side closest to the head. The earpieces are made entirely from polished carbon fibre which is then varnished by hand.

The Hoon x The Perfect Unison headphones use the best audio technology, making it a quality professional product. Look out for a release at Colette on June 23rd.

Many detailed images of both colorways of the Hoon x The Perfect Unison Headphones follow after the jump.

WeSC continues with their very popular collaboration headphone range. Their Bongo model will soon be released in collaboration with DimMak, Cassius, The Glimmers and the Blooody Beetroots. In terms of design you find anything from really colorful to more subtle black/white designs in the range. Look out for a release in July at Hanon.

AiAiAi will be introducing new professional headphones, after coming into the market with earbuds a while back. The Scandinavian design is once again apparent, as the lines of the new headphones are super clean and the tonal nature of the new headphones makes them look very sharp. The Tracks are more casual lifestyle headphones, whereas the DJ headphones are intended for professionals. The new headphones will be released in August 2009.

A couple of months ago we came across the Bless cable jewelry in the Azita store in Frankfurt. At the time we were impressed, because once again Bless had touched something that we had not seen before and at the same time cables are something annoying, ugly and in the need of decoration, thus a pretty smart move.

Now Bless also got together with Audio-Technica to apply their cable jewelry to their headphones. The outcome are two models, both coming in black and white colorways. They are now available from the honeyee.store.

WeSC presents yet another interesting music collaboration on their headphones. After previously working with Dim Mak and with Edbanger Records, they have now gotten together with The Bloody Beetroots. The headphones are now out in stores.

Lost in the shuffle of previous coverage of the Beats By Dre set from Monster is the Ear Bud headphone. As sleek and (sort of) inconspicuous as the ubiquitous white ipod headphone, these pack a similar punch to the Doctor’s full ear version. The price ain’t cheap, at $149.95, but they do come recommended.

The most exceptional thing about these headphones is the construction. Made of birch, they are molded just like a skateboard. The wood is thin, the transfer of sound, presumably, is thick. What’s for sure is that the end product is light on the cranium.

The second most exceptional point is that the headphones feature the trademark style of Dutch artist Parra. His ties to music are well known, so here the collaborative effort has merit beyond hype… dare we say The Perfect Unison? Purchase of the headphone will begin in earnest at Parra’s newest solo outing (to the Boo Hoo), being held at Paris’ Lazy Dog. (Via Guillotine).

Details of the Parra x The Perfect Unison Headphones follow the jump.

Nixon, a brand behind many an innovative watch, is branching out from time pieces to include headphones. Three designs appear set for release. Each is minimal, given the respective type of headphone. You’ve got robust home audio pieces, all the way down to ear buds. The use of stitched leathers for the padding puts the Nixon output a little ahead of the norm in their chosen price range ($40 to $200).
