  • Poster/Print + Digital Album

    Made up of analogue-created collages, taking designs cues from organic textures and an earthy palette, Mark Greig has put together this original carmine colour-way patchwork piece, mounted onto an A2 background.

    The artwork takes select collages from Mark's original series of 28 individual pieces, designed for each song contribution to our Charity Advent Calendar 2020.

    Along with the contributed tracks from the compilation, this artwork is only available until the end of April 2021.

    All proceeds will be donated and split between You Make It and Project Protect.

about

"I made this track in the early summer of 2020. I wanted to make a warm and chill track, a bit "lofi"-esque, but still have that Jelee flavour. So besides the lighthearted and relaxing nature of the song, there are still a lot of subtle details, drum variations and little synthesizer sounds to be heard. I named the track Skittle Samba, Skittles to let you know that this isn't a very heavy track, and Samba because the instrumentation is really inspired by Samba and Bossa Nova. And when I was younger Skittles used to be my favourite candy. This also is the first completed track I'm releasing that features me on the bass guitar. I recorded the bass when I played it for less than a month. It also is the first instrument I ever owned besides the less traditional instruments like synthesizers, record players and applications, so you could say that is the first sparkle in a new chapter of music for me."

from Advent Calendar 2020 - in aid of You Make It and Project Protect, released December 26, 2020
One new, unreleased track every day of the Advent, donated by some of our favourite artists.

This year we’ve chosen to split profits from the release between two charities, both of whom are doing important work within their respective fields.

The first charity is London-based organisation You Make It, a creative programme that offers young women access to tools, networks and experiences — group learning, 1-1 mentoring, work experience, start-up support and 1-1 pastoral support — giving them the confidence to transform their lives through personal empowerment.

The second is Nigeria-based initiative Project Protect, a subdivision of Burna Boy’s charitable NGO The Reach, launched to help provide financial, medical and legal resources for EndSars protestors during and after the protests.
