Gomma Records will be releasing the album of Le Le June 2010.

Not a lot of people know that Piet PARRA has been part of this 3 – men band for many years.

They released a few limited edition singles wich have been getting absurd prices on E bay. Now they decidet that its time for an album and approached GOMMA: Germanys finest label for avant-garde pop and indie dance music.

The two pre–album singles Disco Monster and Breakfast have been getting euphoric feedback from DJ like Mehdi (Ed Banger) , Erol Alkan and A–Trak.

The new single NUMBER ONE GIRL will be released in June.

Besides Parra there are Serge Fabergé who is also in the Dutch rap-electro crew DJVT and third member Rimer London has been part of the Electro Duo Comtron. “

Converse and the Patta collective join together in their mutual love for classic product, music and bringing friends together.

As Amsterdam’s favorite sneaker collective turns five, Patta joins with Converse to create a unique anniversary pack rooted in their mutual love for music, friends and classic street style. In true family-fashion, the collaborators teamed up with the quirky Amsterdam-based music trio Le Le to produce a 12-inch record with ”banging inner-city chic” tracks commemorating the anniversary.

With a nod toward street culture and Converse’s basketball history, the anniversary pack features a classic Varsity Jacket along with two of the brand’s most iconic silhouettes: the Chuck Taylor Hi and the Pro Leather 76.

Inspired by the iconic Letterman design, the Varsity jacket comes in burgundy corduroy with a reversible grey quilted fleece lining. The collegiate aesthetic of the jacket is lent to the two shoes in an “opposites attract” manner. The Pro Leather sports a deep burgundy corduroy upper with quilted grey lining while the Chuck is the polar opposite with a quilted suede upper and burgundy corduroy lining. The Chuck is an exclusive 60s vintage makeup with higher rands and a clean midsole without the usual pinstripe creating a more classic look. The anniversary launch also marks the first time this exclusive model airs in the streetwear community.

Rounding out the pack is the 12-inch Le Le record with two new tracks, “We Are Le Le” and “Slotmachine.” Inspired by a plethora of music styles – from Disco and Electro to cliché gangster rap – Le Le isn’t limited to just one genre and their unique party-sound fits perfectly to the collaboration. To commemorate the launch of the anniversary pack, Le Le will play at two exclusive release events in Paris on September 9th (in collaboration with Colette and Pigalle) and in Berlin September 10th (In collaboration with WoodWood).

The Converse X Patta X Le Le Anniversary Pack launches on September 5 at Patta, with a global launch to follow at selected top tier Converse retailers.

Detailed images of the collaborative sneakers and the jacket follow after the jump.
