First S I D E R E A L of the year this Sunday @ Picture House Social. Records / CDs / USBs brought to you by MONGRELS (aka Kid Acne & Benjmain). If you’re doing Dry January, come down for the music! Always good to see folk in real life…
A friend of mine sent me a link to these promotional film posters, which incorporate a logotype derived from my typographic / illustration work. Thankfully, my agent found the culprit within hours and we’re being compensated for the plagiarism. Still wack, but grateful it’s being sorted on this occasion.
Really pleased with how this came out. Artwork for the C O R N E R S Lp, featuring #BennyDiction, #Deelflux and #BeitNun. Pre order limited edition vinyl HERE.
I was curious to see what the Adventure Time characters looked like in my illustration style…
#1 FIONNA
#2 SUSAN STRONG
#3 MARCELINE
Artwork for The Science of Sesh – From Iceland to Africa; a compilation of Scotty Hard production / remix work from the past 20+ years. The album features rare and unreleased collaborations with the likes of Antipop Consortium, New Kingdom, Lady Bug Mecca and Emily Wells. Pre-order the limited edition vinyl and related goodies HERE.
I’ve not been in full artwork mode this year. I have kept busy however with a number of projects under various guises (print-maker, lecturer, curator, illustrator, emcee) One of the main ‘labours of love’ being the self-released ATTACK THE MONOLITH album, under the MONGRELS banner. This record is the culmination of 10+ years worth of home recordings, resurrected and assembled into a deluxe limited edition vinyl Lp. It heavily features Sebastian Laws of 90’s psych-rap outfit New Kingdom, as well as guest vocals from Lord Rao (AKA King Kashere) + Juice Aleem. Beats by Benjamin / Mixed + mastered by Dean Honer and recorded with the help of Scotty Hard. Inlay photos by the late, great Shaun Bloodworth and hand-printed by yours truly. THANK YOU to everyone who’s supported this record, it means a lot. Hold tight for a slew of remixes droppin’ in the new year + plenty more capers in the pipeline…
The epic meeting of minds known as …IN THE POP WILDERNESS by MONGRELS and our brother-from-another-mother, BURGUNDY BLOOD is now available on iTunes and bandcamp.
Beats by Benjamin and Kill Money. Lyrics by Kid Acne and Burgundy Blood.
Shout out #Figment_HF on the photographic duties.
