ABT LOVES NERDCORE

“A better tomorrow” teams up with Nerdcore! The shirt contest starts on June 9 and will run until July 6. There is no particular theme set in stone but if you watch Nerdcore then you know his vibe consists mainly of retro comics, music, zombies, and science fiction in general. The prize is 500 € and a big feature on the Nerdcore blog, one of the largest German blogs.
New Musical Ways

The music industry is going into a quiet revolution. More and more artists around the world are trying new ways to reach their audience in a direct way, getting first hand feedback from their fans, sharing their music whenever they see fit and how they see fit, cutting the umbilical chord from the major labels.
Grassy Knoll is one of those artists. With a magnificent user interface, attention to the details and a ease to use, Grassy Knoll just released his own application on iTunes that you can install for free on your iPhone/iPOD touch.
Oh! And the music is great as well!

With a strong drive and clear vision, Valerie drives the music and The Zonders their graphic ID, creating a medium in which these artists can share their influences and present their productions.
The French Brand Kulte got the chance to produce few exclusive series for them, including a range of beach bags…..

Singing Forest

I really like the illustration realized for the cover of “Singing Forest”: just another Kiss-Ass album composed by M.W.D. and released for BudaBeats Netlabel.
Intelligent, cinematic and relaxed music with a perfect touch of jazz! ;-)
Listen “Singing Forest” here! Recommended!

on music and design

Design has always been deeply connected to music. From muse to client – who, after all, wouldn’t love to create artwork for their favourite band’s next release? – music is always present in our routine.
What is seen by many as a source of inspiration, however, can be the actual goal for others. So what if music is your actual language in a design project? That’s what Pedro Oliveira, a.k.a. I Buried Paul, did in his fantastic project The 633 EP.
Great music, great artwork. Check it out!
