Hamburg based Catharina Boutari a.k.a. Puder, musician, composer, record label owner and general jill of all trades is the master mind behind the so called SESSION TAPES, where she takes over a small venue for a couple of days and invites fellow musicians to write and record an album on the fly. Eventually, the new songs are performed in front of a small, selected live audience.

For SESSION TAPES NO. 5, Catharina asked Spiegelsaal, to come up with an corresponding gig poster. 

Taking the production process into consideration, they created this "cabin in the magic woods“.

Next is Mogwai and an art print. 

We just came back from Flatstock Barcelona, taking place again at the PrimaveraSound Festival. For us, it's the most enjoyable of all Flatstock. Hanging out at the mediterranean sea until 4 in the morning, with a fantastic line up of bands and poster artists, what's not to like.

We were lucky to do a poster for the festival show of one of our favorite band's, Mogwai.

Those who have been to PrimaveraSound will instantly recognize the massive brutalist concrete structure, that is the landmark of the whole festival ground, not being able to withstand zero gravity. -TJ

- Day-Glo-Yelllow, Orange, Black, Red (15/50 s/n)

»...repetition, and unsettling deviations of said repetition...«
SUUNS’ descriptions of their music lead to Spiegelsaal's first canary-motive-poster, at last!

They curated a part of one of their favorite festivals, the fantastic Le Guess Who? in Utrecht, Netherlands.
Their great closing show on Sunday night was also the last show of their current European tour and needed a proper poster to celebrate this.
Which gave Spiegelsaal the possibility to live out one of their secret obsessions....canaries! Or...Astro-Canaries?
They have a few copies left in their shop: http://www.spiegelsaal.net/eng/shop/sps-027-e/

Next up is Warpaint.

WARPAINT

Spiegelsaal Kowloon Walled City And Minsk German Tour Poster

Spiegelsaal is Torsten Jahnke and Jochen Mönig who are friends of Alexander Hanke have released their German tour poster for the sludge double package Kowloon Walled City and Minsk.

 I asked Torsten about the design:

In this case, we worked quite literally with the band name.

kowloon walled city was a settlement on the outskirts of hong kong, that was built by it's inhabitants on the fly.

no architects or city planing was involved. living conditions were accordingly. it was torn down by HK authorities in the 1990s.

from a far, the whole thing really looked like a guitar amp dropped on it's back.

so the idea was to create an image, that brings housing blocks and stacks of amps together, as both bands have a very heavy sound and are quite the equipment fetishists.

hence the streets made from guitar cables, the sun that also is a knob and we also sneaked an image of the current album cover in there.

Here are the details on the posters
50 × 70 cm (19.7 × 27.6")
3-color screenprint on silver 300 gsm Folia paper (gold/red, black, transparent silver)
2 variations
Overall print run: 60 s/n 30 of each color.
