Finding Flyer Fodder

Now that I've got a new computer, I'm getting back into one of my side-hustles: graphic design.  It's probably healthier than where I am now, djing 6-nights-a-week --- hurting my soul/liver. 

I've been away from doing pretty much any design for . . . . shit, almost a year now.  So for this outing I spent a bunch of time online browsing/searching for something that would get me back into the swing.

Well the flyer, which I'm almost done with, isn't based on any of the images I found online; but these are weird, dope, gross, and not all work safe images that I'll post up:

Flyer Fodder Spotted

Having done graphic design for a bunch of years now, I'm always interested in spotting the source materials people steal/borrow for their work; much the same as when I was 18 going through 126 Bob James albums looking for Beastie Boys samples.

Now, I did a good bit of googling for the finished flyer, but to no avail.  The event featured Lloydski at PS14 doing a disco set.  If you missed it, maybe the designer will post up the OG in the comments. 

*Edit: The link is in the comments.

Regardless, here's the album cover the piece was ripped from:



Just imagine Lloyd's head on there.  



Nice fit.

But, to do you one better, here's a rip of Captain Sky's album.  Enjoy.


Continuing on Lloyd, he was just down here this past weekend, djing at Poplife in the 'Red Room' --- also known as the 'other room where you go when its too packed/loud/annoying in the main room'.  Aside from Benton and myself, it was a fairly lukewarm reception, despite him dropping some really good tracks.

Here's one of em that you most likely missed; unless you are either the guy or girl that was enjoying a serious makeout sesh in the corner.  Yes, we were watching.

Force Of Nature - Afroshock



And just cause I can, here's the 'alternate' take on a classic:
