ABU.... Vision On Stylee

You may wish to open this page up in another tab whilst you peruse the ABU! Gallery.

This nice, retro design is courtesy of the man like J-MC of the DCP Posse. 

Note the richness of his composition, urging the viewer to stop for a while and delve deep into one's past, searching long-lost thoughts of a simpler time. It conjures up a swelling feeling of euphoria in which two worlds collide; that of Spectrum 48k lo-fi design and Lego bricks.

The feeling of claustrophobia is especially prevalent with the deep, thick border that encases the piece which I suspect is this artists' own metaphor for the hipsters that swarm around and engulf ageing b-boys at hip hop events.

This next entry is from the notebook of a Mr Hayhooooooe.

He has decided to opt for the age-old stylings of paper and pen. Yes, very outlandish I agree but still manages to capture a robust yet fragile feeling of fleeting rhythm with the curvature of it's lettering.

I am especially in awe of the cheeky confines of the latter part of the design with an arrogance displayed in the numbering, forcing the viewer to intake a deep breath, practically feigning a uncontrollable brevity in which the end comes almost too soon. Ah, such is life. I applaud you, Hayhooooe, ho, ho. Bravo.

And this is from me, innit.
