Mr G, also known as Colin McBean, has been producing house and techno music for over 30 years and his career has taken him across the globe. Tokyo became a firm favourite and as a keepsake from every trip, Mr G would visit a plethora of traditional Japanese haberdasheries, buying up ends of lines of Japanese fabrics featuring weird and wonderful prints to take home.
