<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Courier New', Courier, monospace;"><br />
</span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Courier New', Courier, monospace;">Made up of Jessie Rose on Lead Vocals, Guitar and Keys, James Wood on Drums and Backing Vocals and Mark Lewis on Bass and Backing Vocals, this three-piece band successfully mixes soulful vocals with Hendrix-esque guitar licks. </span><br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhPrMYisugxgMxj-gsL61WUWy9vM6hhnhxT-Vgr15_ZOgJyLQLwU7rzpilkFlDFnTKMJb_7mNlcDtce4bRkgjbNZs2j6u9kS9mZU0TiCjPGrqIzNkzB66FMc3CTgBbxmtqVcc195nx5z6E/s1600/+img5.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="266" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhPrMYisugxgMxj-gsL61WUWy9vM6hhnhxT-Vgr15_ZOgJyLQLwU7rzpilkFlDFnTKMJb_7mNlcDtce4bRkgjbNZs2j6u9kS9mZU0TiCjPGrqIzNkzB66FMc3CTgBbxmtqVcc195nx5z6E/s400/+img5.jpg" width="400" /></a></div><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Courier New', Courier, monospace;">Their music possessed so much variety and you can definitely hear a lot of vocal influences from 30s/40s soul and blues, mixed with 60s blues-rock guitar riffs and with a 2010 Indie spin it's extremely surprising that this band has not been signed yet. </span><br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhNJdILPmSEE7uWUs9KJAFGS8LgrdwA3cNRLZGmHvhOsv0N15Eva46LglceYCGCjgZJMU6m2OO7iVNtv4JnjSp3qIKhPPYLeNSaYt561s5B8Y4N_WbiArcgha9WrKxS_NOur5G_gx982ss/s1600/+img.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="400" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhNJdILPmSEE7uWUs9KJAFGS8LgrdwA3cNRLZGmHvhOsv0N15Eva46LglceYCGCjgZJMU6m2OO7iVNtv4JnjSp3qIKhPPYLeNSaYt561s5B8Y4N_WbiArcgha9WrKxS_NOur5G_gx982ss/s400/+img.jpg" width="266" /></a></div><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Courier New', Courier, monospace;">It's extremely hard nowadays to find a band with a front-woman who can sing live, and this band is by far one of the best. I'd say their energy and passion was prominent throughout their performances; each member complimented one another and they played an extremely good show. Seeing them play live was a great experience, I'd like to say seeing them live is far superior to their awesome studio music. </span><br />

<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Courier New', Courier, monospace;"><br />
</span><br />
<div style="text-align: center;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Courier New', Courier, monospace;"><b>Previous logo: </b></span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhyz8XTbp0waz1NaV3ZrCcsiy4-lzkL3Dva-8Wbv8KCGeQL9hejnVkG0T6ZIxxZLfCXwc38EKsRVSzEMZpKqh_BG_0ilJUMESW7yTGZ2AxA7c7UAbpCd7DrYR335iJbP8XdQH5odTMmlB8/s1600/32188_393286845851_183390830851_4316966_1676900_n.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="200" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhyz8XTbp0waz1NaV3ZrCcsiy4-lzkL3Dva-8Wbv8KCGeQL9hejnVkG0T6ZIxxZLfCXwc38EKsRVSzEMZpKqh_BG_0ilJUMESW7yTGZ2AxA7c7UAbpCd7DrYR335iJbP8XdQH5odTMmlB8/s200/32188_393286845851_183390830851_4316966_1676900_n.jpg" width="200" /></a></div><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Courier New', Courier, monospace;">Even though I loved the older logo, I felt it wasn't me. It felt like a great graphic/typographic image, however, i wanted something which felt more me in terms of design; contemporary, a mix of typographic styles, nice balance of type and a great use of space around the logo. </span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Courier New', Courier, monospace;">Here, I present the new logo. Overall, I love it ... however I know I'll probably end up changing it soon enough, let's hope not ey?</span><br />

<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Courier New', Courier, monospace;">Today marked one of the most iconic days for me, as a designer, as the man himself, Peter Saville, responsible for the artwork of </span><i><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Courier New', Courier, monospace;">Factory Records</span></i><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Courier New', Courier, monospace;"> album covers of </span><i><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Courier New', Courier, monospace;">New Order</span></i><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Courier New', Courier, monospace;"> and </span><i><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Courier New', Courier, monospace;">Joy Division</span></i><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Courier New', Courier, monospace;"> (amongst a lot of design work) came into our college to do a Q&A/talk session. </span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Courier New', Courier, monospace;"><br />
</span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Courier New', Courier, monospace;">Peter Saville began by establishing that he was a "</span><i><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Courier New', Courier, monospace;">bad example</span></i><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Courier New', Courier, monospace;">" of a graphic designer, he considered himself a "</span><i><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Courier New', Courier, monospace;">designer of communication</span></i><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Courier New', Courier, monospace;">". </span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Courier New', Courier, monospace;">He discussed his influences and inspirations to which he responded "everything i look at is inspiration, before the internet was extremely accessible I used to go into newsagents reading everything in magazines; to understand more about design and what I liked". </span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Courier New', Courier, monospace;">When taking his degree at Manchester Polytechnic University (now known as Manchester Metropolitan University) he would look at everything with a "designer's eye" understanding what worked in design and how a designer had constructed a piece of work. </span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Courier New', Courier, monospace;">He also touched upon his work with </span><i><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Courier New', Courier, monospace;">Factory Records</span></i><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Courier New', Courier, monospace;">/</span><i><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Courier New', Courier, monospace;">New Order</span></i><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Courier New', Courier, monospace;">/</span><i><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Courier New', Courier, monospace;">Joy Division</span></i><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Courier New', Courier, monospace;">, he expressed how at the time he made covers which he wanted to create with his own ideas, rather than being asked to do an album cover in a certain style; thus creating the extremely unique visual style that we all know and love. </span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Courier New', Courier, monospace;">Saville also explained the idea that once you're not enjoying what you're doing anymore, move on. He admitted that he's turned down many clients due to not enjoying projects; "</span><i><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Courier New', Courier, monospace;">...i was in a meeting, during the time I worked in the fashion industry, and I wasn't enjoying what I was doing anymore, I'd grown out of it. The meeting was actually with Stella McCartney, she said "Peter, do you want to do this?" to which I replied "... not really no". I haven't worked in fashion for over 10 years. Once you stop enjoying what you love doing, it's time to do something else ...</span></i><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Courier New', Courier, monospace;">" </span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Courier New', Courier, monospace;"><br />
</span><br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh90JPg1zWXVx8O56eq8aEq7xSvE1Gw42Yd7j5eoDyec3hhDV03iM_-6nXnw8e6DYq-f8U3hlpWCTQ2v3-gdVqxYTEltTYnZKyjQeFWLrKGM2V8rn5vYjeNpWMCBlPnosx8MONxzPSS91M/s1600/waste-3-sq.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh90JPg1zWXVx8O56eq8aEq7xSvE1Gw42Yd7j5eoDyec3hhDV03iM_-6nXnw8e6DYq-f8U3hlpWCTQ2v3-gdVqxYTEltTYnZKyjQeFWLrKGM2V8rn5vYjeNpWMCBlPnosx8MONxzPSS91M/s320/waste-3-sq.jpg" /></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br />
</div><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Courier New', Courier, monospace;">It was extremely interesting and thought provoking listening to him speak about his time in design, his extreme passion and love for the art form is prominent when he talks about the work which he has produced. It was also nice to hear from not only a genius in terms of design, but from someone who has "been there, done that". An extraordinary talented and inspirational man.</span><br />
