Allez-Allez

This is a package for an EP by London Dj duo Allez-Allez. Once hearing the music we couldn’t mentally resolve the sound of the music with the title of the record Hideous Racket. Was it supposed to be contradictory, self referential, positive, negative, inside joke? We dunno. So we decided to leave it up to the customer with a simple “Yes” or “No” option and vinyl cling dots to make the appropriate selection.

admin — Sat, 10 Apr 2010 21:03:45 +0000

This is the continuation of the Rvng Frkwys series. See Vol. 2. The series pairs contemporary artists and their progenitors by way of remix, reinterpretation, and original collaboration. Vol. 3 features ARP (aka Alexis Georgopoulos) and Anthony Moore. We packaged each 12″ in classic tip-on style jackets wrapped in black leatherette and overlayed with Frkwys “family portraits”, creating a truly substantial and archival quality.

These Are Powers

admin — Fri, 19 Feb 2010 01:06:05 +0000

We’ve always wanted to do an album cover that we can hold up to our faces like they do on the internet. And here it is. Admittedly, the scale isn’t quite right for doing that. I mean, we did have other intentions. Regardless, we’re always psyched to do covers for bands that are truly truly awesome. We think our realization of These Are Powers’ “Candyman” vibes nicely with the music. Andy Curtin shot the images of our dude. Thanks dude. Oh and please buy a copy from Rvng Intl. Capish?

Pink Skull: Endless Bummer

admin — Thu, 05 Nov 2009 18:32:45 +0000

For the design of Pink Skull’s latest LP “Endless Bummer” we thought it would make sense to create a process that would be a total bummer. We started by producing three offset-printed color versions of the record jacket containing all pertinent text content. A total of 1000 jackets were printed. Next, we created a list of 1000 things that could be considered “bummers”. We then letterpressed 900 jackets — each with a unique “bummer” — using wood type hand-set on a Vandercook press at Pyramid Atlantic in Silver Spring MD. Each jacket was then hand folded and glued. The remaining 100 jackets will be available at a higher cost with your own personalized bummer. All records come with a zine we designed using found imagery provided by the band. Buy one from Rvng Intl.

Rvng Frkwys Vol. 2

admin — Tue, 18 Aug 2009 20:27:07 +0000

Rvng Intl. just announced its new 12″ series entitled FRKWYS. A play on the name of the legendary Folkways record label founded by Moses Asch in the late 40s to document sound and movement in music from around the world, the FRKWYS (think Freakways) 12″ series pairs contemporary artists and their progenitors by way of remix, reinterpretation, and original collaboration. The first release in the series features collaborations from NYC avant-pranksters Excepter with Chris Carter and Cosey Fanni Tutti of Throbbing Gristle and Chris & Cosey, JG Thirlwell of Foetus and his many alter egos, and Jack Dangers of Meat Beat Manifesto. Out of full respect for and importance of this collection we packaged each 12″ in classic tip-on style jackets wrapped in black leatherette and overlayed with Frkwys “family portraits”, creating a truly substantial and archival quality. Expect 9 more of these.
