Defgrip http://blog.defgrip.net Just another WordPress weblog Fri, 30 Jul 2010 14:42:38 +0000 en hourly 1 http://wordpress.org/?v=3.0 Old Record Covers http://feedproxy.google.com/~r/defgrip/etnz/~3/nJU72poSA3U/ http://blog.defgrip.net/2010/07/old-record-covers/#comments Fri, 30 Jul 2010 14:42:38 +0000 Nuno Oliveira http://blog.defgrip.net/?p=13542

Old records have the best artwork. The large format and the styles of back in the day make for some rad visuals.

The owner of Jive Time Records in Seattle must agree, as he has 2 sites dedicated to album covers. He simply scans the covers and posts them. Check out Groove Is In The Art and Project Thirty Three.

Our friend Ed David recently shot this awesome piece on the Mast Brothers for The Scout. Ed actually said it Best – so to quote, “A short documentary about two brothers, chocolate-makers, that are bringing craft back to the U.S. in an age of automation and the dulling of the American creative vision. We filmed them before they took off to set sail and to explore where their chocolate comes from.” I personally find this piece fascinating for many reasons, but how awesome would that be to sail across the world in search of goods! Respect!

I met David Rubin this year while living in New York. Actually he happened to live a few doors down from me, just until recently when he decided to move due to intolerable Puerto Rican’s bumping their absurd car stereo’s, and PG-13 motorcycle gangs that jam Creed at all hours of the night! I’m super psyched on his photos though, and wanted to share it with Ya’ll as David would say. From Austin, TX originally and now an NYC transplant! check out his work. Below are some of my personal favorites!

Jack Bool hit us up with this rad email the other day:

“Hey guys, I just wanted to give Defgrip I shout out and say whats up. The site you guys have going is super rad and it hits on all of my main interests. I’m really digging your disposed series and it inspired me to start messing around with some disposable cameras myself. I have an old raynox fisheye that I hold in front of the cameras and it makes some shots look pretty dope. I just went on a road trip to So Cal and the Sierras with a few of my homies and brought along a few disposables. You should check out how the shots turned out on my flickr. It’s half BMX and half hiking and such.”

Keep reading to see a few of Jack’s photos and check out the whole set on his Flickr – flickr.com/photos/jackbool

We posted on Josef Hoflehner‘s photos before when we covered his Jet Airliner series, but after a re-visit to his site and some time spent on the rest of his portfolio, his work deserves another post. His landscape/cityscape photos are breathtaking and I love the consistency with his colors and contrast.

Jordan from Say Mayday alerted me to this piece that VBS did on Mat Hoffman (BMX legend just in case you don’t know). It features Johnny Knoxville and a bunch of other rad people talking about Mat, as well as some riding.

WATCH THAT!

If you have not seen Mutiny’s Let’s Get Mystical video, shame on you and you are in luck!

They have gone ahead and put the video online for your viewing pleasure. I embedded the outro as that is always a fun part of the video for me, but if you click HERE, you can check out the rest.
