Artist:Shackleton, Appleblim, Gatekeeper plus remixers
Title: Pics 1-4: Soundboy Punishments, pics 5-8: Soundboy’s Gravestone Gets Desecrated By Vandals
Label: Skull Disco
Year: 2007, 2008
Designer: Art/lettering: Zeke S. Clough, CrippaXXXalmquist
Type of music: Dubstep and all sorts
Notes: The big Dubstep labels, Tempa, Hyperdub and Skull Disco all have some kind of design ethos. We’ve already featured Tempa’s The Roots of Dubstep. I’m not a huge fan of Hyperdub or Apple Pip’s functional design approach, but these Skull Disco covers are unmistakable. It’s difficult to imagine not liking Zeke Clough’s humorous mashup of monsters rising up South America/Egypt/his own id. Now that the Skull Disco operation has been shuttered, I wonder what the next look will be for Shackleton.
