An Air-Cooled Evening

Most people’s first tour isn’t a stadium run with Linkin Park. Meesh Daranyi’s was. She’s been a jewellery maker, painter, photographer, yoga teacher and massage therapist, and these days she’s a potter too, but her day job for the last 15 years has been styling film and TV. On the From Zero tour she dressed six band members in six distinct styles, with a decent stack of Deus in the mix. Back on solid ground, our good friend and stylistic muse joined us in Camperdown to check out the new collection over a coffee, and chat about personal style, creative side quests and why comfort always wins.

Three days. One island. Same reason we keep coming back.

Salt on the skin. Dirt on the boots. Engines running somewhere in the distance. Deus Slidetober Fest was back in Bali, with three days celebrating everything we love: bikes, surf, art and music. From a sand endurance Swank Rally on Pangkung Tibah Beach and a solo art show from Andre Yoga at the Temple of Enthusiasm, to a closing night at Deus Pits with awards and surf rock from The Panturas. The kind of event that makes us wonder why we’d ever do anything but ride, surf and hang with our mates.

Thanks to everyone who took part, the crew who made every day possible and the crowd who came to watch the madness unfold.
