Secret 7", by Deleted on Mar 24, 2014 21:15:11 GMT 1, SECRET 7" IS AN ANNUAL EVENT THAT COMBINES MUSIC AND ART FOR A GOOD CAUSE. We take 7 tracks from 7 of the best-known musicians around and press each one 100 times to 7" vinyl. We then invite creatives from around the world to interpret the tracks in their own style, resulting in a one-of-a-kind sleeve for every 7โ. The creatives are made up of famous names through to gems we unearth through artwork submitted to us here on our website.
700 sleeves will be exhibited Downstairs At Mother in London on April 12th & 13th, then on Record Store Day - 19th - you can get your hands on one, or more, for ยฃ45 apiece. You donโt know who created the sleeve, or even which song itโs for until you have parted with your cash โ the secret lies within.
This year we are introducing a maximum of 5 sleeves per transaction to give more people the chance to own a Secret 7".
Each day we will open from 10am - 6pm, and it's free to view.
Downstairs At Mother, 10 Redchurch St, London, E2 7DJ.

Secret 7", by astrobboy on Mar 25, 2014 0:00:59 GMT 1, DJ Shadow was included a few years ago. He even had a competition to submit your own sleeve designs...
Secret 7" is an exciting project combining music and art in aid of Teenage Cancer Trust. Seven bands and recording artists are inviting creatives to design the artwork for a seven inch vinyl sleeve inspired by one of their songs. The project will culminate in 700 unique vinyl sleeves displayed in Idea Generation Gallery in London in the week leading up to Record Store Day 2012. On that day, each of the vinyls at the gallery will be available to purchase with all of the profits going to Teenage Cancer Trust.
None of the buyers will know who created the sleeve, or even which song it's for, until they are holding it in their hands - the secret lies within.
In this challenge, DJ Shadow has selected the track โCome On Riding (Through The Cosmos)โ and is inviting creatives to interpret the song, however they please, via an original piece of seven inch artwork. This is an incredible opportunity for aspiring artists and designers to collaborate with a top DJ, to have their artwork seen by millions, be exhibited alongside established artists and in the process, raise valuable funds for Teenage Cancer Trust.
Not sure how they handled it over in discogs.com though

Puppy Love by Donny Osmond.

A mad rush to grab the sleeves or a nicely relaxed browse of like minded art and music lovers. Is it a big old queue starting in the wee hours of the morning?

Secret 7", by jusdeep on Mar 26, 2014 7:27:28 GMT 1, Love the Fowler needlepoint Speebe, Insect did some nice ones last year also. Didn't you also get one of those?
In answer to a few questions, because it being a public area they don't like queuing for too long in that area and I think they said last time you will be moved on if you queue too early. I think a few people rocked up in the wee hours of the morning, but most are music fans, around for Record Store Day and joined the queue around 6am onwards and a lot later on after getting releases from indepenent record stores. The few remaining sleeves got auctioned for charity on Ebay and around 4-6 signed test pressings of each record were sold the same way.
All covers are originals, some are hand drawn, collage, painted, screened - some are print-outs.
Last time round the first ten or so were let through the door first. I along with Speebie and Nipper were in the second wave and we still managed to get what we wanted. Obviously the bigger named artists get taken first, but I seem to remember Ai Wei Wei going to someone who liked the image rather than knowing who did the recorrd sleeve as I'm sure many others did.
Picking records: Basically the records are positioned around the venue on walls and it's first come, first served - a little bit of a dash. You pick from the walls and then take your 5, (or less) choices to the till to pay. Last year you could pick as many as you wanted. I picked my top 2 then leasurely picked my next few. I have no idea if they will do the same again, but last time it seemed to work out ok.
Always a nice bunch in the crowd, many of which are not there for the art, more the limited records. But obviously there are a few who know their artists, frequent the RCA Secret postcard and know a Creed from a Gilbert & George. Plenty of other things going on, especially around Rough Trade. Live music and limited releases all over the City.

There are some crackers this year that I've got my eye on already.
