As we gear up for summer here in Greenpoint, the longer days of sunlight are already bearing dividends, with tons of new items in the shop and a slew of great events to share with you.

The latest installment of the Musician as Designer series comes from the legendary Sonny Kay. In his already illustrious career, Sonny founded and ran the record label Gold Standard Laboratories (GSL) for over 14 years, all the while performing in iconic bands such as Angel Hair, The VSS and Year Future. The t-shirts feature an original digital collage, screen printed with 3 colors using water-based inks on organic black garments from Alternative Apparel. Only 60 shirts in edition, move fast risk missing out.

Speaking of selling out- the previous Musician as Designer T, by non other than LCD Soundsystem’s Nancy Whang have been selling quite fast. We are completely out of sizes medium and large, so if you are a XS, S, or XL, we recommend picking up your shirt now.

We’ve got great new items from our friends over at Chunklet Magazine.

The Indie Cred Test is “everything you need to know about knowing everything you need to know.” Yes, it is actually a test. And yes, it will educate you and prove to your friends how smart you really are.

Also from Chunklet, another genius piece of cultural insight (in t-shirt form). We’re strongly in support of this statement here at SSD HQ, quite simply: Vinyl is Killing the MP3 Industry.

Former collection bands Gang Gang Dance, Battles and Fucked Up are all releasing new albums this month. Gang Gang Dance dropped their new album Eye Contact on 5/10 on 4AD, Battles will release their newest album Gloss Drop on Warp Records in June, and Fucked Up’s album David Comes to Life (Matator Records) will also be released in June as well. The entire 2009 Collection on final closeout sale, with 70% off all remaining items.

For those of you in NYC, be sure to buy tickets to Joshua Light Show: Fulldome June 3rd-June 5th. In conjunction with Brain: The Inside Story, Josh White, one of the contributors to our Artist Music Journal series, will be putting on one of his amazing light shows in the Hayden Planetarium at the American Museum of Natural History. Tickets are $40 and can be bought here. Don’t miss out on this unique opportunity.

Cheers to a great summer!

It seems that spring has finally sprung here in Brooklyn, and along with its arrival we’ve got some great new items and exclusive deals that we don’t want you to miss out on.

Right on the coattails of LCD Soundsystem’s final show (of which we are still reveling in the epicness of the show while simultaneously sincerely sad to see them go), we released the latest Musician as Designer shirt (Edition 13) by the lovely Nancy Whang. Nancy not only plays in LCD Soundsystem, but also the long time SSD faves Juan MacLean. There are only 60 in this series, featuring her original watercolor illustration digitally (yes, digitally) printed on organic Alternative Apparel garments. Get them now or forever regret missing out.

We’ve also got some great sales going on in our shop. Musician as Designer shirts by Sadie Laska and Lucky Dragons have been added to the sale this week, at 30% off. Our 2010 Collection oversized totes are still only $10/each, and all 12 installments in Volume One of the Artist Music Journals series are only $8 each. We would be bad friends if we didn’t warn you that the low stock that remains for the Daniel Higgs, Brian Roettinger (+ No Age), and EYE installments.

After an awesome pop up shop at Giant Robot LA in March we were able to get back some previously sold out items, including VIF ED 04 Crew T in Medium, the Beach House Hoodie in Medium from our 2010 Collection, and the Health Crew T in both Small and Medium. Make sure to check out our store to see what’s popped up!

For all of you in NYC, this Friday (April 22nd), Pantha du Prince is performing at Good Units / Hudson Hotel. We will have all of his 2010 Collection designs on sale, designed by the infamous Hisham Bharoocha, so be sure to stop by and say hi. Doors are at 10 pm.

Also for those in NYC, the talented Musician as Designer alum Tim Cohen will be performing with his band The Fresh and Onlys on Saturday (April 23rd) at the Music Hall of Williamsburg. Tickets are still available, and we hope to see you there.

Last but not least, be sure to sign up for the brand new RCRD Deals. Soundscreen Design will have an exclusive discounted package available next week. Head over to RCRD Deals for more info.

We’ve been hard at work here in frosty, snow covered Greenpoint on an abundance of new products, collaborations and projects that we’re excited to share with you. Make sure to sign up for our monthly newsletter to stay updated on all our new endeavors, as well as the occasional exclusive sales just for our subscribers.

No more ruining the corners and jackets of your records when attempting to bike home from your local shop. But why stop there? To boot, each bag has a unique recycled vinyl lining sourced from highway billboard advertisements and reflective outer printing to keep you safe at night.

Artist Music Journal 12: Yamantaka Eye (of Boredoms)

Yamantaka Eye’s Artist Music Journal is available now and is not to be missed. Eye’s is the twelfth and final edition of Volume 1, and we could not think of a more fitting artist to close out the series. Eye used his journal as an opportunity to design for dozens of imaginary bands, including original album art and vinyl details. One of our very favorite releases in the series, AMJ 12 is available now, and as always, limited to 1000 copies.

Vinyl is Forever Edition 05 Still in Stock

We’ve just discovered a few “lost boxes” in our warehouse, which contained desperately needed stock on all styles and sizes for the Vinyl is Forever Edition 05. In case you haven’t heard, VIF ED 05 was designed by Chicago-based design collective The Post Family. This will be the final collection for the Vinyl is Forever line, so make sure to grab one before they’re gone. This collection will not be reprinted.

We’ll have other upcoming Musician as Designer t-shirts in the works from artists such as Richard McGuire of Liquid Liquid, Sonny Kay, and many more exciting artists. Installments range in size from 60 – 84 shirts, we recommend not dilly dallying.

Stay warm friends and thanks for your continued support!

Happy New Years to all friends and family of Soundscreen Design! We hope 2011 brings you happiness and success, for without your support we would not be where we are today. Thank you for your continued loyalty and encouragement, and we’re excited to share with you some of the new projects we’ve been developing.

Record Messenger Bag

Here in Brooklyn we’re big fans of bikes. But to be fair, who isn’t a fan of bikes? We use them to get around the city, run errands, and of course to visit our favorite record shops. So it makes sense then that we’ve designed a Messenger Bag with a fortified vinyl pocket to keep your records unharmed while traveling. Each bag has a unique recycled vinyl lining (sourced from highway billboard advertisements). Only 150 will be made in our first production run and will be available only through our web shop on February 1st.

Artist Music Journal 12 - Yamantaka Eye (of Boredoms)

It’s finally here…almost! The twelfth and final edition of our Artist Music Journal series, featuring the work of Eye, known primarily as the vocalist for the Japanese band Boredoms and also for his prolific visual art portfolio. He used this project as an opportunity to design for dozens of imaginary bands, including original album art and vinyl details. One of our very favorite and most original releases in the series! AMJ 12 from Eye will be available January 15th.

Musician as Designer

Our Musician as Designer collection is still going strong, with our tenth release by the talented Sadie Laska of Growing. They say “sex sells,” in which case this edition of 60 shouldn’t last long. Grab one before they’re all gone.

Also out now is our newest design by the inimitable Justin Pearson of Locust, All Leather, and Retox (among others) and also the founder of Three One G records. The design is Justin’s original flyer from a show at USCD in January 1997 with 3 Mile Pilot, Dragon Rojo, Day Called Zero, The Crimson Curse and The Audience. If we’d been in San Diego, we would have been at this show.

All Musician as Designer T’s are printed on organic garments from Alternative Apparel.

Road to Rock Kid’s Coloring Book

We’ll also be releasing our first kid’s coloring book, Road to Rock, which is the story of a fictional 80’s hair metal band and their rise to fame. Illustrated by Buffalo’s finest, Hero Design, if you like the Rockin’ Alphabet series you’ll be sure to love Road to Rock. We are targeting an early spring release.

Sales & Low Inventory

If you haven’t placed your orders for 2010 Collection items, now is the time. We’re running extremely low on many sizes/styles, especially for Band of Horses by Slow and Steady Wins the Race and Animal Collective by Rob Carmichael/SEEN. Sold out items have been removed from the shop, and we recommend you grab your sizes while they are still available (remember, we do not reprint). In the same vein, only a limited amount of our earlier Musician as Designer tees remain, many of which are on sale now. Also check out the special Artist Music Journal bundle, editions 07-10 for only $50 (4 for the price of 3).

Last but not least, we’d love to see you on February 17th at Issue Project Room for our belated AMJ 11 release party with Dan Nadel, Joshua White and featuring a performance by Gary Panter and Devin Flynn. Issue Project Room is located at 232 3rd Street in Gowanus, Brooklyn.

Thank you again for your continued support and looking forward to sharing more exciting news in 2011!

Lots going on here at Soundscreen Design, including a new Vinyl is Forever edition, the complete 2010 Collection of designer band apparel, a limited edition Touchable Sound bundle, Artist Music Journal back issue discounts, and, of course, a few exciting projects in the works.

Vinyl is Forever

Our fifth (and final!) edition in the Vinyl is Forever series is out now, designed by the always incredibly Post Family. The Post Family began with seven guys living in Chicago who liked to make art, however over the past two years the collective has grown into a blog, gallery, performance space, working design studio, and resources for the Chicago community they intend to serve. The design for this edition is featured on crew neck t’s (natural and black), a heather black ¾ sleeve henley, and a grey pullover hoodie. As always, the design is limited edition and printed on soft and comfy organic garments. Order yours here!

Touchable Sound

We are thrilled and very thankful for the incredible turn out at our past events for our new book, Touchable Sound: A Collection of 7-inch Records from the USA. Events celebrating its release (thus far) included a special presentation at Family (LA), a DJ night featuring exclusively records from the book at Heathers (NYC), a special Man or Astroman? 7”/book bundle for their first Athens’ show in 11 years, at 40 Watt Club, and a panel and presentation at Criminal Records (Atlanta). Thank you for everyone that came out for these events!

As we mentioned, we made a special bundle for the Georgia events. Along with the book’s introduction writer and Mr. Man About Town Henry Owings (Chunklet), we teamed up with Man or Astroman? for a limited edition (300 copies) one-of-a-kind 7”, specially packaged for sale with Touchable Sound. The record comes in a static shield bag, complete with a (very real) circuit board, and features two unreleased songs ‘Earth Station Radio’ and ‘Updated Theme to Supercar.’ We only have a few left, and if you were not able to make the show you may purchase one of these special bundles by paypaling $39 to mike@soundscreendesign.com, while supplies last of course.

If you haven’t been to an event yet (or want to come to another one!) please make sure to check out our upcoming installation of 60 records featured in Touchable Sound at the John Varvatos store in NYC (in the old CBGB’s). The 3-month installation starts November 23rd.

The 10th edition, with Brian Roettinger, comes with an exclusive 10” record featuring a collaboration between No Age and Brian with three exclusive tracks. Brian also did the album artwork of No Age’s new album, Everything In Between, released in September.

The 11th edition, brought to us by Dan Nadel (Picturebox), features Josh White and the legendary Joshua Light Show. There’s currently an exhibition at London’s Welcome Collection, featuring a recreation of the visually mind-blowing Joshua Light Show.

Touchable Sound

Now available for pre-order is Soundscreen’s latest book, Touchable Sound: A Collection of 7-inch Records from the USA.

In an era that advocates streamlined product, and music at the click of a mouse, Touchable Sound celebrates those independent-minded bands and labels that make their own records and relish the opportunity to produce labor-intensive one-off artifacts. As Henry H. Owings puts it in his introduction, the book honors “those who invest countless hours of themselves to further their art. It’s about having an attention to detail and a disinterest in the bottom line.”

Organized by region, Touchable Sound focuses on unique, exquisite examples of American 7-inch-record packaging. Spanning nearly 25 years, it lovingly documents the obscure and the hard-to-find with help from musicians, artists, and label owners. Many of these records-by bands as diverse as the Locust, Olivia Tremor Control, Angel Hair, Stereolab, Los Crudos, the Melvins, and more—have never before been seen by a wide audience, and were originally pressed in extremely limited editions.

Curated by Brian Roettinger, Mike Treff, and Diego Hadis, the book features over 300 records and 600 bands that have set the bar for record packaging and design. Learn more about Touchable Sound here. The official release is set for October 5th, but make sure you reserve your copy by pre-ordering.

Come help us celebrate the release of Touchable Sound at Family Bookstore in L.A.

Event Details: October 4th, 7 p.m.
Family, 436 N. Fairfax Ave, Los Angeles, CA 90036

__________________________________________________________

The latest installment in the Artist Music Journals series showcases the amazing illustration and poster work from our favorite Montreal-based design team, Seripop. Known for their original illustration and design work, as well as their longstanding tenure as founders and members of the musical outfit Aids Wolf, Seripop have a broad following around the globe. For their installment in the ongoing series, Seripop compiled years of original gig poster work, the first collection of its kind for the studio, which has made thousands of prints over the years.

Seripop presents Hoarding Skin, an installation piece, as their first solo exhibition in New York City. Debuting at Secret Project Robot Art Experiment in Brooklyn, Hoarding Skin will then travel to the Vienna Kunsthalle in June.

“We see the street poster as the “skin” of a city , growing and shedding organically, in constant flux, allowing citizens to make their temporary mark. With Hoarding Skin we seek to engage in playful discussion about both the individual and community’s role vis-a-vis freedom of expression within the urban landscape, via the colloquial and/or the monumental.”

Further, Seripop have contributed their installment in the ongoing Artist Music Journal series, edition 09.  The books are on press, and we will announce pre-orders shortly.  We are still selling subscriptions to the first year’s volume, all 12 installments.
