Tanz Kaputt Poster Design

Share this: Twitter | StumbleUpon | Facebook | Delicious | digg | reddit | buzz | eMail | LinkedIn

Click for HighRes

This is my new poster design for my friends from We Are Salzburg. Tanz Kaputt is the new name for their partieseries at the small Club Denkmal in Salzburg City. They asked me for a simple logo design, so I made a bit grungy looking round logo in black and white. Afterwards they asked me again if I can made a poster for their next party. It was a long journey until I was happy with the end result. At the beginning I’ve got no single idea for a proper design and this was frustrating. Finaly I’ve got the idea with thy pyramid and the 3D chrome looking logo in space. The energy of the Pyramid should split the logo apart, because “Kaputt” means broken. ;) I wanted something “huge and mighty”, so I guess I needed round about 25 hours until I have finished the design. The Poster size is DIN A2, so it was necessary to use only high res images. You can imagine how big the psd file is. If you like it like I do, post some comments, would be great!

Click for High Res

This is a design for the upcoming Dreamwave/Retronica/Chillwave – Label Future City Records from Connecticut, USA. They wanted a real classic 80s retro Design for their Label. It was great fun to build this piece. I wish those guys all the best for the future, but with this name, I see no problems! ;) As soon as they are online, I will post another article with all links and maybe some fresh tunes!

MF Backdrop Design

MF Backdrop Draft 1

MF Backdrop Draft 2

These are two Backdrop Design drafts (9×11 ft.) for an english group called Mike Fantastic. They ordered the design for their upcoming tour. My first draft was too round and not clear enough. So I sent them a couple of new fonts to choose one. They told me the design looks perfect exept the font. No problem, the second draft was quickly made and than was silence….they didn’t answer my mails. I don’t know what was happend. It’s a pitty and the risk of every graphic designer who works with new clients. Never mind, so I’ve got two pieces more for my Portfolio.

Cory Enemy & Dillon Francis – Ultra EP Review

Share this: Twitter | StumbleUpon | Facebook | Delicious | digg | reddit | buzz | eMail | LinkedIn

LA based monster producer Dillon Francis released his long awaited collab with Cory Enemy, better yet this absolute steal of an EP is being given out for free! Enemy and Francis, being long time mates took the time out of their summer tours to bring out this belter that will stay with you long after you stopped hearing its dulcet tones. “Ultra” was going to be released on Francis’s label but with a lot of samples that couldn’t be cleared it was just released for free lads!

Cory Enemy & Dillon Francis – Ultra EP by DILLONFRANCIS

The EP starts off with the title track, which has some slow progressive synths matched with some cute backing vocals… Until it breaks in with a street fighter reference, moving to the heavy mid section, perfectly balanced with some harmonics and chilling synths. With all that going on you’d think it’d be too much, but ‘Ultra’ balances it all perfectly. A perfect start and exactly what would be expected from the two producers.

Moving onto the second track ‘Who the fuck are you’, these two make unique sounds that seem to mix dance style harmonics with a hefty dub influence. A minute in and it’s already far less hectic, more something to chill out to at a house party, or that’s how it seems. Until it all breaks in with a cheeky vocal drop “Who the fuck are you”. The slower bass lines match seamlessly with the high and pure electronic notes. Picking you back up and throwing in the flawless mix of styles. The track seems simple, but deep, mixing in euphoric chimes to leave you with a feeling of purity, until we move into the finale.

‘’I love you’’ Picking it back up again with some stunning vocals and an edited Beyoncé sample start to enhance the atmosphere, before a huge vocal drop. Winding back up to the mid section, full of samples sounding like a dying Nintendo that you can hear throughout. The second drop mixes deep bass with an overly sweet but chilling “I love you”, before breaking into the drop. The swing changes the entire feel of the song, and it seems like this is a track that is constantly evolving as you listen to it. Whilst the sweet electronica influence screams at you right the way through, making every drop have much more impact. What a beast of an ending, but I would of been disappointed with any less.

If you haven’t downloaded this already stop reading, go to soundcloud and do it….RIGHT NOW!…DO IT!…CLICK IT! CLICK IT WITH YOUR FINGERS AND THEN LISTEN WITH YOUR EARS. Right, done it? Good. This absolute belter of a collab not only shows why Dillon is at the top of his game at the minute and keeps on climbing, but also that he is still able to work with and help promote one of his biggest influences in the genre. They mix genres and themes and break the concept of just hefty bass to sell a track. It’s no doubt that you will hear this when you’re out, hopefully through a stack that will actually do it justice.
