Staatseinde riso printed

Today I printed the sleeves for the upcoming Staatseinde record… it was done in 3 colours on a risograph machine… I ran into some problems at first as the design was done in a way that too much ink was printed on the paper sheets… resulting in paper jams inside the machine as the sheets of paper with the ink got stuck inside… after changing the files so the design had more transparency and the machine would take less ink to print the design all went well… below you can see the progress of the first layer, the second layer and at last the third layer printed…

The record will be out soon now…

And the printing continues…

Yesterday I finished the screen printed sleeves for the upcoming Garçon Taupe release… Andy Dufter (Staatseinde) helped me out… due to the temporary set up at the new location of Kapitaal I got a bit dirty with ink all over the place and it was quite hard to print these sleeves… but we managed to get it done…

These sleeves for Gooiland Elektro take a lot of time to print… so much that I decided to change the design and the printing technique for this series from now one… so the LCN and Garçon Taupe releases are the last ones in this style… more on the new design concept later… it is finished but all in time…

 

Printing time again

Yesterday I started printing the sleeves of the upcoming releases… four sleeves have to be done i total and one is finished now… together with Roberto Auser I printed the LCN sleeve at the new place of Kapitaal in Utrecht… as the new print studio at this location is not set up yet we had to improvise a bit… but the sleeve came out well… so one down… three to go… two more screen printed sleeves and one I will do with a risograph machine… more news when there is…

Summer is almost gone…

Holidays are over here at ET HQ… since today… and all activities are starting up again… the website will be updated this week with the 4 upcoming releases… same goes for my soundcloud… and I made a start over there with adding a full track preview already of the LCN 12″ EP coming on Gooiland Elektro soon… you can listen it below…

Summer break

Even though the recent releases are quite fresh… and I am still shipping these as we speak… ET HQ will be shut down from today onwards… until mid August… meaning I will be offline… for a summer break…

The next four releases are at the pressing plant… so all is in production for  a new batch of records coming this autumn…

Enjoy your summer and see you on the other side…
