Mike Giant Bit Again
    Wednesday, 18 July 2012 /// Written by Van Edwards

Swear Mike Giant has to be the most copied contemporary artist of our time. Jessica stumbled across this beer label that "picks up on" (more like straight copies) the man's work.

The design picks up on the the brewery's rebellious nature and is a homage to east coast streetart and artists such as Rebel 8.... Um, don't forget the art of Mike Giant specifically. ~more info


What's up with designers who can't come up with their own shit?!

Thrasher Mike Giant Coverage

Thanks to Thrasher Magazine for the Mike Giant show coverage.

Much has been written about the clean, instantly-recognizable linework of Mike Giant. The wide-ranging extent of his career is too broad to be summarized in one caption, but his art has been intertwined with skateboarding for decades. ~read on

 

Dan the Automator & Shamil Randle
    Tuesday, 17 July 2012 /// Written by Trippe

Had some interesting guests swing through FFDG this previous weekend. Hip Hop producer Dan the Automator who's produced gems like Kool Keith's 1996 album Dr. Octagonecologyst and works with Del tha Funkee Homosapien in Deltron 3030 stopped in to get a personalized tour of our last show with Kelly Tunstall.

All you older skaters out there should be happy to know that Shamil Randle is doing great. Check his part in the classic World Industries New World Order from '93.
