Insound 20

I was super stoked when Insound emailed me this fantastic project - The Insound 20 - the marriage of indie music and design. Insound teamed up with designer Jason Munn of design studio The Small Stakes to develop an exclusive music merchandise & design project. The Insound 20 project features iconic designs for twenty of Insound’s favorite bands, silk-screened onto American Apparel t-shirts & hoodies as well as on hand-numbered and signed silk-screened posters. All product editions are limited. Insound plans on launching a new series each year, featuring a new designer or studio and twenty bands.
The bands in the inaugural Insound 20 are:
1. Beirut
2. Black Heart Procession (yay!)
3. Built to Spill
4. Calexico
5. Clap Your Hands Say Yeah
6. Death Cab for Cutie
7. Department of Eagles
8. Grizzly Bear
9. Jose Gonzalez
10. Magnolia Electric Co.
11. New Pornographers
12. Okkervil River
13. Peter Bjorn & John (yay!)
14. She & Him
15. Spoon (yay!)
16. The Constantines
17. The Decemberists (yay!)
18. The Hold Steady
19. The National
20. The Thermals
Only 1000 t-shirts and hoodie sweatshirts and 200 posters of each design are being made, and they will only be available on Insound.com.
PLUS: if you checkout with promo code insoundtwenty10 during checkout you will get an extra 10% off your order!
Additionally, a 21st design is being sold that includes the names of all bands in the Insound 20 program. 100% of the profits from the sale of this 21st shirt and poster will go to benefit 826NYC. 826NYC is a nonprofit tutoring, writing, and publishing organization, dedicated to providing free literacy programs for children.

Silhouette Pictures by Karl Johnson

I am always impressed with people who have paper-cutting talent. It amazes me. Each silhouette is cut out entirely freehand. Karl looks at the subject’s profile (whether in person or from a photograph) and starts cutting their exact likeness out of black paper.

Cut Arts is offering a 15% discount for DM readers! Use the code designmilk to get the discount price. Fantastic!
