DJ Q-tip and Tim Sweeney will deejay an afterparty. that Action Bronson is performing at. There will be panels on lots of net stuff from the 5 verticals of Vice.

Fela Kuti’s “Live in Detroit 1986″ Art Work Decoded

Posted on May 14, 2012 by Wes Flexner | Leave a comment

I reviewed the latest Fela Kuti release this week in the Other Paper. The funny thing is that the artwork was done by a Columbus ex-pat and CCAD Grad Zach Jaeger. I grew up with Zach and he told me that he was working on this when I ran into him at SXSW. He has lived in New York for awhile so this fact slipped my mind until he posted this on his tumblr today.

FELA KUTI “LIVE IN DETROIT 1986”

This just came out last Tuesday and is a really phenomenal album! I’ve been working on Fela art for over 3 years now, reviving all of the album art for re-release. This however is the first “new” record I was able to work on. We manage to get a scan of the actual poster and ticket stub for this show and used it in the packaging. The inside of the digi-pack is an adjusted version of the actual TDK tap used to record this show (I just so happened to have one of these tapes with the jacket). Although this is a pretty simple package and layout it’s one of my favorites I’ve done to date.
You can pick up a copy of this amazing album here!

Black Keys Are Filming A Funny Documentary

Posted on May 12, 2012 by Wes Flexner | Leave a comment

Awhile back I alluded to something that was going to make people happy. Well, Pitchfork points to a Spin Magazine report that a “Bromantic” Black Keys documentary is currently being filmed by the Keys’ long-time friend Noah Abrams.

from Spin:

The director of a forthcoming Black Keys documentary says he has no plans to make the rock stars look like, well, rock stars. Instead, the untitled endeavor will be “a buddy comedy with perhaps the greatest soundtrack of all time.”

“A lot of music documentaries spend too much time trying to make people look cool,” says Noah Abrams, filmmaker, photographer, and friend of the band. “I’m fortunate enough to know both these guys pretty well and their relationship is pretty incredible and very funny.”
