HORDERS/THE WAY TO LIGHT update

the new HORDERS split cassette with THE WAY TO LIGHT was originally scheduled for a december 21st release through DIE SONG. i kind of dropped the ball on a few things on my end, but finally got these covers and inserts printed and trimmed and off to the label. featuring a black over metallic silver card cover and a black over black folded card insert. tapes are at the plant as we speak, and the new release date should be announced shortly. for now, preview one of the HORDERS tracks streaming exclusively over at INVISIBLE GUY.

miami, etc.

had the opportunity to go to miami for ART BASEL a couple of weeks ago as part of MARK FLOOD'S art entourage. if you aren't already familiar, there's about the most concise article imaginable up now over at SLATE. or, alternately, on my other BLOG.

incidentally, mark (aka clerk fluid, etc.) wrote what is probably the most important and realistic book ever scribed on the actuality of the art machine. highly recommended that anyone with any interest in pursuing art as a career try to track a copy down.

while in town, as a further strike of good fortune, ran into the guys that do EIGHT BALL ZINES.

and was able to get my hands on a copy of one of REMIO'S sleepner zines.

also picked up some FAILE and BAST tokens at their DELUXX FLUXX arcade installation. regardless of how i've felt about either of their work previously, the arcade was pretty cool.

new projects, necessary tunes.

horders // the way to light

video execution by GIVE UP and HALLOW HAVEN DESIGN.

lethal R&M

about to start some letters and a CD layout for new anthemic southern rap group LETHAL R&M. which may be a little strange looking back at the type of bands i've done visuals for historically. possibly even stranger when considering that one half of the group is ribs from iron age, ancient vvisdom, etc. don't expect some e town concrete or boxcutter type stuff here though. i heard a rough mix of the album and emcee is delivering true southern RAP. more soon.

CARRION SUNFLOWER // KNIFED OUT OF EXISTENCE

mentioned working on this project in previous posts. just received physical copies in the mail. CARRION SUNFLOWER and KNIFED OUT OF EXISTENCE split cassette and tshirt. while the respective bands already had their own working logos, i provided the artwork for the tape and shirt, as well as assembling the final jcard layout. the full package is really impressive, including an embroidered edge patch, sunflower seed, sterile scalpel blade, and cards. all contained with the tape in a black fitted zip-seal bag. available now individually and as tape/shirt packages from OUTSIDER ART.
