REVOLT! by Some Product

At Some Product we have always looked at t-shirt graphics as a reflection of society and of the human psyche in general.

About a year ago we started working on a series of graphics and ideas called REVOLT. They are quite stark in nature and design, mostly black designs, printed on gray bodies. Each shirt is individually marked with a large, airbrushed, red X. It has an immediate, almost primal quality to it, reminding one of a door or a window marking, often seen during civll unrest. The wearer becomes the mark.

Whether it’s the IRA, Tiananmen Square or Zapatistas, uprisings and rebellions have always been an integral part of  human history and development.

REVOLT tees are available for wholesale now. Please contact us for information.

Special Limited Edition one-off REVOLT tees are available thru the Some Product online store.

Brushing with Air

Cutting stencils and airbrushing was a huge part of the creative thrust and process for Some Product during 2004 and 2005. Most of the items from that period were airbrushed individually by hand in Vancouver. It was a very exciting and spontaneous period with many designs being one-of-a-kind, or in extremely limited runs. The majority of the collections were sold to customers in Japan. Locally they were sold at El Kartel.

In 2011, Some Product will be bringing back airbrush elements into the collection. (Posts to follow).

Time permitting, there is a possibility of an airbrush workshop at Blim in the up coming months. Check with Blim for any details.

Samples of Some Product airbrush graphics from 2004/05 (below).

Ah Nostalgia

Nostalgia was a 2004 New Years’ Eve party held at the current “Red Gate” space on Hastings St. in Vancouver. Nostalgia successfully strived to be more then another over priced and predictable New Years’ party. It fused innovative performances, site specific set design and art. Most importantly it was a blast!

No need to feel Nostalgic however, as many of the same people involved in 2004, are throwing another New Years’ party at the Waldorf Hotel, which again promises to be something special.

Happy New Years’ and see you in 2011!

About 50-70 of these Nostalgia tees were produced specifically for the event.

Mycommunitee X Blim

Mycommunitee and Some Product are very excited to start working with our friends over at Blim. They have a beautiful new retail/gallery space in Vancouver’s China Town. It’s really worth checking out.

We were asked to print a limited run of these Russell Lang tees for his opening.

These limited tees are printed by Mycommunitee, currently available at Blim.

Petroleum By-Product

Petroleum By-Product is an awesome, new-wave tinged band from Vancouver, NOT a duo of dreadlocked Dutch eco-warrior rave Dj’s !!!

After weeks, of literally being held at gun point in a dungeon like studio, by the very Spector like  Soulkid1 aka Lord Godfrey, these guys are ready breathe in the  fresh air of East Hastings and synth their way into our little hearts, tonite (April 16, 2010) at the Rickshaw theatre.

Last week, Sally from PBP stopped by Mycommunitee.com to get a tee made from their  Superficial Artificial album cover. A very limited number of these tees may be available for purchase directly from the band.
